out of the box, you love the clean, shiny machine but it becomes annoying and
irritating after some time. You discover you are not getting what you expected

Basic TIPS on the USB Cord
We all use chargers of different shapes, sizes, colors and
designs. We only worry about getting a full charge and don’t have a full scoop
of what the USB cord actually entails. Some of us even deal with problems of
slow charging on your devices and some even have USB cords that once were used
to transfer files and now can only charge your device. Saturday, 16 May 2015
HOW TO TAKE SCREENSHOT ON WINDOWS 8 AND 8.1
We all love to take screenshots of some items on our various
handheld device screens. Sometimes, it’s a page on a browser, it sometimes is a
funny picture on Instagram. Screenshots now dominate our daily mobile
technology usage. Gone are the days of picking a notepad and pen to take notes
from a website. Some mobile operating systems don’t have this but are able to
do this magic with the aid of applications. An example is the Screen Grabber
and Screen Muncher on OS 7.1 of the BB. Devices like android and BB10 do this without
the need for such softwares. Today, I would be showing us how to take
screenshot of Windows PC running OS 8 and 8.1. You can try it on other versions
of Windows. Vista, XP and 7. Hard to find one of those things around me.
STEPS
1. Prepare the page you want to take a screenshot off. Ensure every
document or item is well enlarged, highlighted or as you choose.
2. Look on your keyboard and locate the Print Screen key, on my
HP here, it is written as “ prt sc “,just
beside my Function keys.
Found it? Bravo, now press and hold the windows Logo button
on the keyboard and press the " prt sc "
key we found earlier. Mathematically, the equation should be
+ prt sc = screenshot
3. The screen should flash and you are done. Attached to this
post is a screenshot of me using MS Word in editing this post.

4. Now, check in your Pictures folder, a screenshot folder
containing your screenshots would be waiting for you. Have fun. I hope this
increases our creativity.

Did you know your Phone could do THIS!!!
you should really try out this NEW Whatsapp Update.
I woke up this morning and saw a playstore notification that
I needed to update 7 apps.one of them was Whatsapp. I carefully read through
the “What’s New” section of the update and saw user interface improvement, bugs
and performance fixes. Completed the update and behold. I was amazed. Whatsapp
didn’t add the video call but simply maximized the material design of android.

Best Messengers of our TIME
There was a time when apps like Snaptu,Migg33,ebuddy,Qeep,Nimbuzz,ShMessenger and the likes trended. They were on every symbian and S40 nokia there was. Some off this messengers are still active. Some evolved into something else while some just put on a nice shoe and kicked the nearest bucket. Allow me to add that only cavemen and dinosaurs still use SMS and MMS.

Speed Up your Android Device
Do you have an android device?
Is it very old,i mean gingerbread or honeycomb old?
(Gingerbread and honeycomb are old android Operating systems so take that look off your face.LOL)
Is your device seemingly getting slower and you cant aeem to update to latest OS like Ice cream sandwich,kitkat or almighty Lollipop?
There's a way out and NO!, you dont have to buy a new device or hope for an update.
It is a simple trick,it is embedded in all android phones. It is the Developer Mode. To enable this function, goto MENU > SETTINGS > ABOUT
Locate Build number, tap the build number 10 times and voila!!! You've enabled the Developer Mode.
That's phase 1,phase 2,go back to settings page and you should see the developer mode.....we need to tweak some settings. Scroll down and you would find a category called drawer having 3 sub categories namely Windows animation scale,Transition animation scale and Animator duration scale. Set there values to 0.5x or none for best results. Go back to your phone screen and see the speed.
It soesnt do much,just forces your phone to speed up the beautiful animations and appear faster.
More on the developer mode would be discussed later on.
