Re: [AI] Urgent help needed regarding OpenBook
Madam: Please select the file in which settings are to be saved. When you click on save settings, and in the dialogue press shift tab I guess to get to the list of files. If you are doing it for the first time, it will be default file. If you wish to override that file, select that file and then click on save. Otherwise, in the file name box, just give any other name say for example, Law, for saving the settings of legal documents scanning. Come back if you have more questions, I'm using Pearl with Open Book 9. Thanks Amar Jain. On 5/17/11, Sneha Nandakumar wrote: > Hello Access Indians, > > Greetings to you all!

[AI] Now access Facebook on mobile without internet
Now access Facebook on mobile without internet New Delhi: Singapore-based software applications developer U2opia Mobile has developed a new application for mobile phones that will allow users to access Facebook on all types of handsets without paying for a data connection. "We are using USSD technology, which will enable users to access Facebook without having a GPRS connection on their phones," said Sumesh Menon, the co-founder and chief executive officer of U2Opia Mobile. Unstructured Supplementary Data (USSD) is the technology used by telecom players to send alerts to their users that inform them about their balance at the end of a call or for sending missed call alerts. Mr. Menon mentioned that though the technology will not provide access to graphics, it will help users send and view updates on their friends' Facebook walls. "It is like SMS and hence, the load on the network is negligible. We have built some commands through which a user can receive alerts on activity happening on his wall as well post an update," said Mr. Menon. U2opia launched this application on Tuesday with Indian telecom major Bharti Airtel. While Airtel customers can update their Facebook status through this USSD service free of cost, Re.1 per day will be applicable for accessing the full-feature application, which enables viewing news feeds, commenting on or 'liking' news feed stories, posting on friends' walls, confirming friend requests, viewing notifications and findingand adding friends. "In the Indian market scenario, where the penetration of smart phones is relatively low, and the use of internet on mobiles is primarily limited to key cities, many users are excluded from accessing their Facebook accounts via mobile phones," said Shireesh Joshi, Bharti Airtel Director - Marketing, Mobile Services, in a statement. Airtel users can dial *325# and *fbk# for non-qwerty mobile handsets to access Facebook without subscribing to data plans, the statement said. "We look forward to bringing millions of Facebook users in India closer to their love for social networking by allowing them to access it anytime, anywhere on their Airtel-powered mobile phones," Mr. Joshi added. - PTI http://www.hindu.com/2011/05/18/stories/2011051864200600.htm Vikas Kapoor, MSN Id: dl_vi...@hotmail.com, Yahoo&Skype Id: dl_vikas, Mobile: (+91) 9891098137.

Re: [AI] Should you reveal disability during the job search?
hi Folks, In my view, when you apply for a job, your motto is not to test how aware the employer is. You want job, and the kind of lack of awareness we have in India, there are very few employers who would call you for interview after seeing disability mentioned on your CV. Moreover, I wonder why do we need to mention disability on CV? I find no reason at all until I’m able to perform equally with my other sighted colleagues. Many of the sighted folks have health problems like heart issues, diabetes etc, and like its not necessary for them to reveal their health problems on CV, it should be same in disability too. The purpose of CV is to answer “how able you are”, rather “how disable you are”. So in my humble advise, mention your skillset on your resume, not disability. its just a physical difference, which does not matter at all till you are able enough to perform the job you are appearing for. The road ahead from submitting resume is already tuff, I find it unwise to make it tuffer by yourself by committing unnecessary mistakes. Regards, Prateek agarwal. Director, Daedal technovations pvt.

Re: [AI] Should you reveal disability during the job search?
Hy srinivasu sir I am totally agread with you because in our country things are quite different even the people who are doctors and specially deal with eyes treatment they also don't know the ablities the assistive technology can provide to visually impaired then what about employers? how can we assume that they hav any idea regarding jaws and other assistive technologies though things are quite changed in the recent time but we will have to wate for at least 4 to 5 years to show our impairment in our cv these are my personal views regards On 5/17/11, rahul cherian wrote: > My take is a little different.
