Windows 8.1

Windows 8.1 is ready





Microsoft has gradually teased details of the next version of Windows 8, called Windows 8.1, over the last few months, emphasising that it's a free software update that will release later this year.

The company finally presented Windows 8.1 for the first time at its Build Windows Developers conference in San Francisco on 26 June, and it released an early preview - or beta - version for software developers to test.

The next version of Windows will notably bring back the Start Button missing from Windows 8, which released in October 2012, and it will include a bevy of new features, changes and performance enhancements geared toward overhauling the platform. The company said it developed Windows 8.1 in response to feedback.


With that said, here's what to expect and what do you need to do to get ready. We plan to bring you a review of the new OS update when we get a hands-on with it following Build.

Microsoft has offered a Windows 8.1 preview release since 26 June, but has now revealed that the full consumer version will be available from 17 October. It said that it will go live at 12am on 18 October in New Zealand, so that means 12pm in the UK, 7am on the east coast of America and 4am on the west.


If you can't wait, the preview is still available for Windows 8 and Windows RT, so developers and early adopters can begin testing now. As you would expect Windows 7 users will have to upgrade to Windows 8 before then trying out the Windows 8.1 update.

‘Bone Season’ author suggests 5 other books of dark futures

“The Bone Season”  Author Samantha Shannon Suggest that If you like the book "Thr Bone Season" here are her recommended readings while you await the book’s sequel like below


  1. ‘A Clockwork Orange’ by Anthony Burgess : “Burgess creates a fictional argot called Nadsat, influenced by Russian, which teenagers use to communicate in a bleak and violent future. I'm not a linguist and I knew I couldn't sustain a dense argot for the whole of ‘The Bone Season,’ but ‘A Clockwork Orange’ did inspire me to introduce a criminal slang, giving the novel some linguistic color.”
  2. ‘Daughter of Smoke & Bone’ by Laini Taylor: “The first in a trilogy, this is a wildly inventive, dark fairy tale about angels and chimaera, mostly set in Prague. It has a bit of ‘Pan's Labyrinth’ about it. Laini Taylor has a writing style I really envy: lyrical, sensual and evocative without ever being pretentious. The novel reads a little like a poem, a love-song to the mysteries of the world.”
  3. ‘The Handmaid's Tale’ by Margaret Atwood: “This is the book that introduced me to the dystopian genre. The narrator, Offred, has a voice that teeters between passivity and agitation, and the world Atwood creates is truly frightening: ritualistic, brutal and misogynistic  with uncomfortable echoes of reality.”
  4. ‘I, Robot’ by Isaac Asimov: “I'm a huge fan of all of Asimov's robot stories. This collection is particularly thought-provoking and sometimes disturbing. His robot characters are often more 'human' than the scientists that work with them. Asimov tackles the timeless question of what humanity is, what it means and who has it, which is a subject I look at through the Rephaim in ‘The Bone Season.’
  5. ‘1984’ by George Orwell: “This is classic dystopia. The last sentence haunted me for weeks after I finished it. Orwell's characters demonstrate why I like writing dystopia: they break, they turn on each other, they fear and weep and feel terrible pain. Dystopia forces characters to their limits, allowing you to see sides of them you might never otherwise have seen.”

Microsoft Office

Microsoft office now comes to Android



Good News Comes From Microsoft that Microsoft has finally decided to issue its Office 365 for Android platform. The software started rolling out from yesterday and it costs a $100-a-year for subscription and won’t be sold separately.  As of now it is only compatible with Android Smartphone that runs on ICS or above, but it won’t work on Android tablets just as it doesn’t on iPads, reports AP. At first, it’s available only in the U.S., though the company plans to expand to 117 markets with versions in more than 30 languages.


Office 365 came on the heels of its release for the iPhones last month. Microsoft is putting it all to make its product compelling on other platforms too; without removing an advantage that tablet computers running on Windows now have, viz. the ability to run popular office programs such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint.


So lets Enjoy Microsoft office 365 on your Android smart phone..
