In the recent past we have seen quite a few building based strategy games on platform. These games take advantage of the bigger screen sized devices and provide a detailed game play to the users where they have to control almost everything and that’s what makes these games interesting as well.

Rock the Vegas is yet another game that has been launched by its developer – Game Insight, in the building and strategy gaming genre. The game just like its previous version My Country that focuses on making a city right from the scratch and as you earn money and then in turn use the same money to make the city better.

Rock the Vegas game brings back the same game play but with an interesting twist – the control to build the Vegas City right the way you want it to be. Users are given the required and the bare minimum basic training for playing the game in the initial few stages of the game but if you have played the My country game in the past you will know what to do and how. For new players, the game has got a long list in terms of options and menus to toggle and control the game. Users get the power to control each and every element of the game play be it population, buildings, light which of course look great in the newly added night play mode where the neons over the casinos just look simply superb.

Since there is no minimum hardware requirement for devices to play this game, it can be easily installed and played on most basic Android devices. Obviously, the quality of graphics will differ from device to device and definitely on smaller devices this game will run relatively slower which might lead to a bad game experience.

There are no in game advertisements or funky stuff like application suggestions. The game gives the option to users to buy the special currency which can be used to get the tasks done faster and buy limited edition and much efficient buildings as well. This is a great way of making games and applications free where the players are not unnecessarily pressed or forced to see advertisements or complete tasks to play the game.

Overall, Rock the Vegas promises hours of fun game play but beware you might get addicted to it and please make sure that you carry your charger with you all the time.

The game Rock the Vegas is compatible with all devices running Android version 2.1 and above. It can be downloaded directly from the Android Market or users can alternatively follow the link to download the application.

Tip for using mobile phone’s camera in low light

With the rise of smartphones and camera based mobile phones, photography has taken a new direction all together. Today mobile phones come armed with better and lenses. However, even after these improvements, most cellphone cameras suffer from bad low light photography.
But there are different precautions that users can take especially while shooting in low light so that they get a better picture and not just a haze of lights.

Be still while taking a photo

One of the key things you should remember while doing low light photography is that you have to be really still while taking a picture. The reason behind it is that to accommodate the reduction in the light, a camera reduces the shutter speed and therefore the image sensor is exposed to the light for a longer duration to capture an image and while the image is being captured if the users moves in between then the images get blurred and the detail gets lost.

Move closer to the object

Due to the low light, the camera compensates the detail of the picture being captured so you will never get a highly detailed picture form a distance. So if you want to get some detail in the picture, you have to move closer to the object being captured, closer till you are able to see the details in the preview image. Because a mobile camera captures what users see on the screen.

Shoot against a light source

Whenever you are clicking a picture in the light or in low light, make sure to keep a light source right behind your back. This way the light source will provide ample illumination to the image.

Avoid bright lights in your picture

Another common mistake that people make while capturing pictures in low light is that they tend to include brighter lights in the picture just to make them look good. But what actually happens is that the digital camera is programmed to adjust its settings according to the brightest light seen in the frame and thus details such as the subjects facial features or the whole subject sometimes gets lost in transition.

So whenever possible try to set your picture frame and especially during Diwali time avoid crackers if you plan to capture images during the night.

Do not use digital Zoom

One thing that almost all experienced photographers suggests a person to do is to completely give up the as it makes the images loose detail and does nothing good in the low light photography.

In digital zoom, the phone zooms in on the pixels of the image in order to make it look bigger. And in low light condition, where details are already hard to be clicked, choosing digital zoom would make things further complicated.

Use night mode

Most phone cameras can automatically choose between day and night shooting modes and make changes in settings accordingly, but if your phone does not gives a better picture try changing the picture capture mode to night mode. The for a camera is optimized for low light shooting so using it gives better results than any other mode.

Try before you shoot

There are many camera phones that suggest to the people whether the picture will be good or bad but before you click a picture try out different angles and places to capture that image as a particular angle sometimes turn out to be the best.

Shoot in bulk

Always click as many shots for a particular shot as possible since there is a great chance that when you will click picture in low light something will go wrong so taking a couple of pictures extra will not really hurt, especially when nowadays we have no limitations and no film reels to buy.

As the Kindle Fire tablet, powered by is about to arrive in the US market, Amazon has come out with the announcement of a new e-book format, called Kindle Format 8 (KF8) which takes advantage of the HTML 5 technology. The idea of HTML5 based ebooks is not new, as the current e-book formats such as EPUB, Mobipocket, and even the current Kindle format are a variation of HTML in one way or the other.

In the existing formats, the publishers don’t have control over fonts, text formatting or even layout. This makes it difficult for the children’s or even technical publishers to base their books on them. PDF formats are better for the purpose, but once these files are created, they cannot be made to reflow the e-book contents according to the users’ needs.

In the new Kindle Format 8, all the advanced HTML5 features such as CSS3 formatting, embedded fonts, borders are all supported and then there are richer layout options to make reproduction of children’s books easier than ever. The first device to support the new format will be Kindle Fire, but the support for the same will be extended across other latest Kindles and Kindle apps for smartphones and tablets as well.

Amazon talks about Kindle Format 8 in its site, “As showcased on Kindle Fire, KF8 enables publishers to create great-looking books in categories that require rich formatting and design such as children’s picture books, comics & graphic novels, technical & engineering books and cookbooks. Kindle Format 8 replaces the Mobi format and adds over 150 new formatting capabilities, including fixed layouts, nested tables, callouts, sidebars and Scalable Vector Graphics, opening up more opportunities to create Kindle books that readers will love.”

The Box for is a file organizer app which backs up all your files online, very much like Dropbox. Users can share, browse, and even add new files to their devices, from the comfort of their app itself. The good thing about the app is, the files are not saved on the device itself, they are saved online in the Box account of the users. So even if the users log into the Box app from another device using the same account, the files are very much there.

In the new update to the Android app, the creators have added a new code base, or in user terms, there is QuickOffice integration, so users will find the file editing work becomes easier. Users can also perform various actions such as rename, delete, share files from within the app, using any Android device.

The Box team says on its blog post, “we’ve added an integration with Quickoffice that lets you easily edit documents saved on Box directly from your phone or tablet. Using the integration, you can open a Box file using the Quickoffice app, edit on your device, and automatically save back to Box &#151 ensuring that your whole team has access to the latest version of a document even when you’re away from the office.”

The Box team has also added local file caching to ensure easier access to documents even when users are away from the desk, so no need to download the documents yet again. Those who aren’t having Box.net app on iPhone or iPad don’t know what they are missing out. The app provides a whopping 50 of space to store their music, videos and of course documents and presentations in the cloud. The Android users are however still stuck with their 5 GB data storage limit, which still suffices for most of the users. Those who want to get business account to get more storage space in the app can do so by paying just $15 per month per user (500 GB data storage limit) to get more features, such as collaboration tools and automated syncing.

Sony had introduced the PlayStation Suite Software Development Kit for developers to create games for PlayStation Certified devices. Initially this PlayStation Suite SDK was meant for the Sony Ericsson’s based smartphones. Soon we shall get to see the set of PlayStation certified games being available and playable on Android smartphones other than the ones by Sony. Kazuo Hirai, Sony Computer Entertainment chaiman confirmed to Engadget at the AsiaD conference in Hong Kong that the company is in talks with non-Sony companies to bring them onboard.

Earlier this year in January, Sony had introduced the PlayStation Suite for the development of games and deliver the PlayStation experience on the Android platform devices. Basic requirement is that those devices should have Android 2.3 Gingerbread or higher running. To provide a seamless PlayStation Experience, Sony will commence the PlayStation Certified licensing program for the hardware manufacturers and the PlayStation Suite SDK is meant for the developers.

With recent revelation, Sony plans to extend the PlayStation licensing program to non-Sony manufacturers of Android platform based devices. Hirai said, “This isn’t an ecosystem where we want to keep everything within the Sony family, that’s the beauty of Android. We’re in discussions with non-Sony companies to bring them onboard.”

That means all those PlayStation Suite SDK developed games with standard set of on-screen controls will be made available to non-Sony Android smartphones as well. Also the PlayStation game store might be available non-Sony Android devices.

We can expect the developers to port the classic PlayStation One games for the tablets as well as smartphones. At this moment, Sony just mentioned about the on-going talks and there is no fixed list of handset makers who would be taking part in the PlayStation Certified program.
