Go to your blog inside the Blogger Dashboard and choose Template. Then click the “Edit HTML” button followed by “Proceed.” Next, copy-paste the following code into the template after the <head> tag.
 
<script type="text/javascript">
var blog = document.location.hostname;
var slug = document.location.pathname;
var ctld = blog.substr(blog.lastIndexOf("."));
if (ctld != ".com") {
var ncr = "http://" + blog.substr(0, blog.indexOf("."));
ncr += ".blogspot.com/ncr" + slug;
window.location.replace(ncr);
}
</script>
 
Click the Save Template button and now your Blogger Blog will always serve with the blogspot.com URL.

Google updates AdSense application process for Publishers

Google is making some updates to the application process for publishers who apply for AdSense through host partner sites like Blogger or Hubpages. These updates will only affect new publishers who apply from today onwards. Now when an AdSense account is approved by Google the Publisher can use the ad codes on any site. But now if a publisher got her AdSense approved for Blogger or Hubpages he/she can use it in another blogger blog. But if he/she want to use it in another domain for example xyz.com he/she will have to complete an extra application step. For more details see AdSense Blog.

Android dominates the smartphone market


Google's Android software for mobile devices was running on 75 percent of smartphones shipped in the third quarter, as the search company extended its lead over Apple, according to research firm IDC.

Apple's iOS system, used in iPhones, was second with a market share of 15 percent. Apple's new iPhone didn't come out until late in the quarter, while Samsung Electronics Co. and other Android makers had major releases earlier.

A year ago, Android had just 58 percent to the iPhone's 14 percent. Gains came largely at the expense of BlackBerry and Symbian phones, according to Thursday's report from IDC.

While Android phones dominate unit sales, 90% of profits in the smartphone market is held by two companies, Apple and Samsung.

Apple still manages to make more profits (twice as much actually) in the smartphone market than all the other operators combined.

Windows 8 : A New Beginning

Windows 8 new features

With Windows 8, Microsoft is making one of the biggest upgrades to its PC operating system. For one, it will replace the Start Menu with a Start Screen - with tiles that contain shortcuts to applications - similar to the Metro interface seen on its Windows Phone 7 OS. It will also be introducing the Ribbon interface - first seen in Office 2007- to Windows Explorer. It will launch a store for the new Metro-style apps that Windows 8 will support.But the changes to the new OS are not just cosmetic. Windows 8 has been designed ground-up to support ARM processors - the chips used in tablets - apart from the X86 processors from Intel and AMD. This means the same operating system will be available on desktops, laptops and slates. And regardless of the machine's form factor, whether tablet or PC, this new OS promises a slew of brand new features that seem just as compelling to power users as they are enticing to newbies.

Microsoft removes the 'Start' button from Windows 8


The latest test version of Microsoft's upcoming Windows 8 software is missing one crucial button - the Start button and menu, an iconic part of Microsoft's operating system since it was introduced in Windows 95.The button evolved to become the operating system's 'launchpad', offering access to software, files and search functions. Earlier test versions of Windows 8 had flattened the recognisable 'orb' - but the new build removes it altogether, according to leaked screenshots from tech site The Verge. Microsoft has not announced a release date for the new operating system, built to work with touchscreens as well as on conventional PCs, but it's widely expected to release in the second half of this year.
