ParaType - Public Types Project
At the end of 2011 we released a monospaced font PT Mono™ — the last addition to the pan-Cyrillic font superfamily PT Sans – PT Serif developed for the project “Public Types of Russian Federation”.

Font families PT Sans and PT Serif were released in 2009–2010 with open user license. The main aim of the project is to give possibility to the peoples of Russia to read and write on their native languages. The project is dedicated to 300-year anniversary of the civil type invented by Peter the Great in 1708–1710 years and was realized with financial support from Federal Agency for Press and Mass Communications.

The fonts beside standard Western, Central European and Cyrillic code pages contain characters of all title languages of Russian Federation that make them unique and very important tool of the modern digital communications.

Why Google isn’t worried about Android revenue — Mobile Technology News
As Apple CEO Tim Cook reminds everyone as often as he can, we’re still in the infancy of this mobile computing revolution. There are billions of people around the world who have yet to fire up their first smartphone, and over the rest of this decade we can be sure that those people will have at least two choices: iOS and Android.

How to Build Links Fast: 101 Tips & Strategies
71 Good Ways to Build Links

Love for Lists

1. Build a "101 list". These get Dugg all the time, and often become "authority documents". People can't resist linking to these (hint, hint).
2. Create 10 easy tips to help you [insert topic here] articles. Again, these are exceptionally easy to link to.
3. Create extensive resource lists for a specific topic (see Mr Ploppy for inspiration).
4. Create a list of the top 10 myths for a specific category.
5. Create a list of gurus/experts. If you impress the people listed well enough, or find a way to make your project look somewhat official, the gurus may end up linking to your site or saying thanks. (Sometimes flattery is the easiest way to strike up a good relationship with an "authority".)

Syntax-K – Know-How für Ihr Projekt - The Go Programming Language, or: Why all C-like languages except one suck.
This was meant to be a review of the Go programming language developed since 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson at Google. By now, Ian Lance Taylor, Russ Cox and Andrew Gerrand have joined the core team. It is a C-like language with some features of dynamic scripting languages and some novel (at least in the field of general purpose languages) approaches to concurrency and object orientation. It is intended to be a systems programming language, which is why this review pits it against other C-like languages and not against scripting languages.
During the writing of this review, I noticed that many aspects of Go deserve a more detailed explanation before they can be evaluated. Go simply is different, you can't judge it from a classic OO background. So this is as much an introduction to Go as it is a review. I'm new to Go myself. Writing this helped me to understand what Go does and is, but keep in mind that I am still in the middle of my first Go application. I've coded in lots of languages, so I'll compare Go to aspects of many of them.

Android Design - Welcome
Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0) marks a major milestone for Android design. We touched nearly every pixel of the system as we expanded the new design approaches introduced in Honeycomb tablets to all types of mobile devices. Starting with the most basic elements, we introduced a new font, Roboto, designed for high-resolution displays. Other big changes include framework-level action bars on phones and support for new phones without physical buttons.

We focused the design work with three overarching goals for our core apps and the system at large.

Tim O'Reilly - Google+ - Does anyone else find that each successive release of Mac…
Does anyone else find that each successive release of Mac OS X gets worse, more Windows-like in its obscurity, its tendency to hide affordances that were once a joy to the advanced user, more buggy, more user-hostile, with more attempts to lock you into Apple's own apps. I'm starting to hate Mac OS X, and thinking there's starting to be an opportunity for a new, simple, clean OS to come along.

Installing GoogleCL On a Mac | Fresh Blurbs
GoogleCL is a command-line client to Google services that was released recently. It should appeal to Web geeks, many of whom, in my non-scientific observation, are Mac users.

GoogleCL documentation suggest you use MacPorts to install it on Mac.

Now, I have to admit - it really pisses me off when people talk about installing simple Unix utilities on Mac using MacPorts (or Fink or that new kid on the block called HomeBrew). People, Mac OS-X 10.5 and up is a POSIX Unix system! If you have Dev Tools installed, and Terminal does not scare you, you should not need a crappy thing like MacPorts to install a simple unix utility like Git, SVN or GoogleCL. If you can not install them as you would install on most Unix systems, MacPorts will probably fail you too, so no need to pile garbage on your shiny Mac.

Google’s Six-Front War
While the tech world is buzzing about the launch and implications of Google’s new social network, Google+, it’s worth noting that Google isn’t just in a war with Facebook, it’s at war with multiple companies across multiple industries. In fact, Google is fighting a multi-front war with a host of tech giants for control over some of the most valuable pieces of real estate in technology. Whether it’s social, mobile, browsing, local, enterprise, or even search, Google is being attacked from all angles. And make no mistake about it, they are fighting back and fighting back, hard.

I will discuss Google Charts — based on JavaScript — in this article, addressing its power and simplicity. Most anyone can create these types of graphs.

What Is the Google Charts API?

As Google states on the main page of its Charts API, "The Google Chart API lets you dynamically generate charts with a URL string. You can embed these charts on your web page, or download the image for local or offline use.” You can create anything from static graphs to dynamic graphs, or even art.

This major change affects almost 12 percent of all search results, and the web is still buzzing about its implications...

SPDY, a faster alternative to HTTP by Google
As part of the "Let's make the web faster" initiative, we are experimenting with alternative protocolsto help reducethelatency of web pages. One of these experiments is SPDY (pronounced "SPeeDY"), an application-layer protocol for transporting content over the web, designed specifically for minimal latency. In addition to a specification of theprotocol,we have developed a SPDY-enabled Google Chrome browser and open-source web server. In lab tests, we have comparedtheperformanceof these applications over HTTP and SPDY, and have observed up to 64% reductions in page load times in SPDY. We hope to engage the open source community to contribute ideas, feedback, code, and test results, to make SPDY the next-generation application protocol for a faster web.

SEO for Startups: Top 7 Lessons + A Trip to YCombinator | SEOmoz
Don’t Let Search Dominate Your Traffic Sources. If Google sends 90% of your traffic, your business has real danger associated with it. Why aren’t people coming directly to your site, being passed links in email, getting Tweets and Facebook mentions that send traffic? Why is no one blogging about you, writing about you in the press, commenting in forums with links to your content? These “natural” signs tell a story of a real business providing real value. The 90-95% Google trafficked site says something strange is going on, and Google themselves are likely to figure that out sooner or later.

SupportBee's Team Blog » Blog Archive » Don’t fall into the SEO trap
SEO (Search Engine Optimiation) is a great strategy to gain traction initially. It is even a sustainable growth channel. But if you don’t consciously watch out for it you may end up playing the never ending game of micro optimizing tail keywords and looking for link exchanges in the name of SEO strategy. This is especially true of B2C startups with the Freemium business model. Making ad revenue off the tail traffic is an inevitable lure. And the obsession to optimize that is a death trap.

How Organized Spam is Taking Control of Google's Search Results | SEOmoz
In the past few months, I have been watching a very unsettling trend unfold in very competitive ecommerce search results on Google. It appears that huge amounts of money are put into place to systematically and successfully manipulate highly competitive search terms in order to sell fake merchandise of almost every bigger brand out there. Some of these sites even solely exist to steal people's money and don't ship anything at all.

Curation is the New Search is the New Curation
If we couldn't index 100,000 websites in 1996 by hand, how do we propose to do 234-million by hand today?

The answer, of course, is that we won't -- do them all by hand, that is. Instead, the re-rise of curation is partly about crowd curation -- not one people, but lots of people, whether consciously (lists, etc.) or unconsciously (tweets, etc) -- and partly about hand curation (JetSetter, etc.). We are going to increasingly see nichey services that sell curation as a primary feature, with the primary advantage of being mostly unsullied by content farms, SEO spam, and nonsensical Q&A sites intended to create low-rent versions of Borges' Library of Babylon. The result will be a subset of curated sites that will re-seed a new generation of algorithmic search sites, and the cycle will continue, over and over.

My 7 Favorite Gadgets of the Year: Mobile Technology News «
Which is the best? If pressed to pick my personal favorite among these, it would actually be the Galaxy Tab. That may surprise many, but the device offers a similar experience to the iPad while gaining a level of portability. The Tab works as a 3G mobile hotspot, so I no longer need my Verizon MiFi — a super-useful device that debuted last year. In fact, since I bought my Tab, I’ve only used my Nexus One smartphone for the occasional voice call, which is very telling. The Tab is more useful than my handset, thanks to the bigger display, yet it still goes everywhere with me. Maybe I need to look at a cheap prepaid handset for voice calls in 2011?

Official Google Blog: Governments shouldn’t have a monopoly on Internet governance
The beauty of the Internet is that it’s not controlled by any one group. Its governance is bottoms-up—with academics, non-profits, companies and governments all working to improve this technological wonder of the modern world. This model has not only made the Internet very open—a testbed for innovation by anyone, anywhere—it's also prevented vested interests from taking control.

But last week the UN Committee on Science and Technology announced that only governments would be able to sit on a working group set up to examine improvements to the IGF—one of the Internet’s most important discussion forums. This move has been condemned

What Happened to Yahoo
When I went to work for Yahoo after they bought our startup in 1998, it felt like the center of the world. It was supposed to be the next big thing. It was supposed to be what Google turned out to be.

What went wrong? The problems that hosed Yahoo go back a long time, practically to the beginning of the company. They were already very visible when I got there in 1998. Yahoo had two problems Google didn't: easy money, and ambivalence about being a technology company.

Then go to the usual area to check for software updates and, as long as the rolling update/upgrade has started, it will come to your device.

The War For the Web - O'Reilly Radar
It could be that everyone will figure out how to play nicely with each other, and we'll see a continuation of the interoperable web model we've enjoyed for the past two decades. But I'm betting that things are going to get ugly. We're heading into a war for control of the web. And in the end, it's more than that, it's a war against the web as an interoperable platform. Instead, we're facing the prospect of Facebook as the platform, Apple as the platform, Google as the platform, Amazon as the platform, where big companies slug it out until one is king of the hill.
And it's time for developers to take a stand. If you don't want a repeat of the PC era, place your bets now on open systems. Don't wait till it's too late.

CyanogenMod | Android Community Rom based on Donut tree.
CyanogenMod is a heavily optimized build of Android based on 1.5r3 with parts of the currently available Donut tree, as well as many contributions from the xda-developers.com community and other sources.

*** DISCLAIMER ***
While this build is heavily optimized, it is also capable of pushing your G1 much harder. Cyanogen is not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or the current economic crisis. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modificiations, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

Monopoly goes global with giant online game using Google Maps | Mail Online
Google is to team up with one of the world’s biggest board game manufacturers to create an online version of Monopoly.

The search engine has called on Hasbro to produce the game, which will use Google Maps as a board so players can choose from millions of streets around the world to buy.

The online version will be the same as the traditional board game but players will be able to build football stadiums and skyscrapers as well as the usual houses and hotels.

Official Google Blog: "Going Google" with Google Apps
Every morning, millions of people wake up to a very refreshing experience at work. They don't see "mailbox is full" errors in their email. They don't worry about backing up their data. They can get to any file they need from any computer, anywhere with Internet access and a browser. They can all access and edit the same documents and spreadsheets at the same time as their colleagues. They use Gmail and Google Calendar at work as fluidly and easily as they use their personal Gmail accounts.

Daring Fireball: Putting What Little We Actually Know About Chrome OS Into Context
It’s not weird that Chrome was announced. But what is weird is how it was announced. And, despite the title of the weblog post in which the announcement was made — “Introducing the Google Chrome OS” — nothing has actually been introduced. There aren’t even any screenshots, let alone a demo or any specific technical information. With an expected ship date of “the second half of 2010”, it’s a textbook example of vaporware.

I don’t get the timing. Why announce it now, when it clearly isn’t close to ready? Why not at I/O, Google’s developer conference six weeks ago? Or why not wait until it’s ready to release to developers? I like facts, demos, and best of all, shipping products. I don’t like vague promises.

The Secret Diary of Steve Jobs: Let's all take a deep breath and get some perspective
Google Chrome OS: So everyone is worked up about this new browser operating system from Google. Drudge apparently has gone off his meds again and calls it a "death blow" to the Borg. No spinning red light, but still, pretty over the top. I guess it's supposedly going to destroy us too -- like we're some kind of collateral damage. Man oh man. Where to begin?

Official Google Enterprise Blog: Google Apps connects with BlackBerry Enterprise Server
More than 3,000 businesses adopt Google Apps every day. They range from ten-person companies who switch in a few hours to large companies and universities that plan their move from on-premises servers over weeks and months. Ensuring a smooth change is a big priority for us, and we're making the transition a little easier for mobile users.

We're pleased to announce the upcoming release of the Google Apps Connector for BlackBerry® Enterprise Server. This new software component will make it even easier for mobile users to use Google Apps on BlackBerry® smartphones. It allows users to access Gmail, Google Calendar and Contacts using the built-in BlackBerry smartphone applications they already know and love.

Official Google Enterprise Blog: Sync Google Apps user accounts with your LDAP system
Google Apps Directory Sync lets businesses and schools with an LDAP user directory system like Microsoft Active Directory or Lotus Domino transition more quickly and smoothly to Google Apps. Instead of manually maintaining a separate user account directory in Google Apps, this utility lets Google Apps tap into an existing repository of user account information.

This new utility is a software component that helps maintain security by running behind the firewall and pushes directory information to Google Apps – including mailing lists, groups and user aliases – to match the organizational schema in the LDAP system.

This is a one-way operation, designed so data on the LDAP server is not updated or altered. The utility offers many of the customization settings, tests and simulations originally developed and refined for the Postini directory sync tool to give complex organizations the controls they need to manage their directories effectively.

Google App Engine Blog: Seriously this time, the new language on App Engine: Java™
App Engine now supports the standards that make Java tooling great. (We're working on the tooling too, with Google Plugin for Eclipse). It provides the current App Engine API's and wraps them with standards where relevant, like the Java Servlet API, JDO and JPA, javax.cache, and javax.mail. It also provides a secure sandbox that's powerful enough to run your code safely on Google's servers, while being flexible enough for you to break abstractions at will.

How I make 15K a month at AdSense - Black Hat Forum
I start with keyword lists from adsenseheaven dot com which guesstimates the most expensive keywords to bid on in the PPC AdWords side of the Google ad world. I generally ignore the top 1000, as they are very competitive and saturated.

Ideas to make Mauritius better!
How can we make our country, Mauritius, better? Politicians come and go and sometimes don't know what to do to because of, ahem, a lack of bright people with interesting ideas in their immediate vicinity...

Let's use this website to propose and vote for ideas that can really enhance our life in the Republic of Mauritius (and this includes Rodrigues and the other islands.) Then, instead of having politicians who indulge in the contemplation of their respective navels all day long, maybe a few of them will stumble upon this website and say:

"Aha! Those ideas are really excellent. Let me implement some of them. Maybe the country will benefit. And maybe people will be more inclined to vote for me during the next elections. This really looks like a win-win situation."

google-guice - Google Code
Put simply, Guice alleviates the need for factories and the use of new in your Java code. Think of Guice's @Inject as the new new. You will still need to write factories in some cases, but your code will not depend directly on them. Your code will be easier to change, unit test and reuse in other contexts.

Guice embraces Java's type safe nature, especially when it comes to features introduced in Java 5 such as generics and annotations. You might think of Guice as filling in missing features for core Java. Ideally, the language itself would provide most of the same features, but until such a language comes along, we have Guice.

Recreating the button | stopdesign
Until some future version of HTML gives us new native controls to use in a browser, at Google, we’ve been playing and experimenting with controls we call “custom buttons” in our apps (among other custom controls). These buttons just launched in Gmail yesterday, and they’ve been in Google Reader for two months now. The buttons are designed to look very similar to basic HTML input buttons. But they can handle multiple interactions with one basic design.

Punit Lodaya » Blog Archive » vTiger + Google Apps = Rocking CRM
So I started googling for open source CRM and I narrowed it down to SugarCRM and vTiger based on reviews. I opted for vTiger simply because all of their extension such as Outlook plug-in is free where as SugarCRM charges for it. However, I was still skeptic customizing to my needs.
