Be careful, Your iPad or iPhone can be in your Neighbor’s house.. that is how Apple’s Find My iPhone application shows. While sitting in my home I tried to test this app and my iPad is in my Neighbor’s house as per this app. I know the gps locations cannot be so accurate but I am sharing this to share that next time you loose your iPad or iPhone, think before you knock your neighbor’s door LOL
My Ipad Not in My House

It is amazing how new concepts are shaping the today and future of the fast progressing world we are living in. After bringing a revolutionary idea of bringing VoIP to cellphones today I received an email from Republic Wireless to get hold of a free international number.
Republic Wireless call this a world Wi-Fi number. World Wi-Fi number is a secondary number that will be assigned to your primary domestic number and the republic wireless number. Anyone would be able to call you from any country for very cheap prices (sometime in future)
As soon as I got this, I had a question for myself. Why do I need it? Here is whatI found:
I am from India and most of my family and friends are in India. This will help me in 2 ways:
1) All my friends and family can call me for a very cheap price as Republic Wireless has offered all carriers in the world a very cheap way to pass their traffic directly to them instead of paying heavy fees to other carriers to route the call internationally.
2) I frequently go back to India to meet family and for business. While I am there the same Republic Wireless phone with the world Wi-Fi number will work anywhere where there is a wifi. India is very advanced now, even in my village (Mohtli) there are many wifi networks available. This empowers all my clients, office, friends in USA reach me directly without a need of international calling enabled on their phone.
I went ahead and booked the number of my choice for free. I even went ahead and reserved a number for my wife ( even when she is not registered with them, I think they are very generous to allow anyone). Here is the link http://worldwifi.republicwireless.com
Now I am waiting for 2012 when they will make this number available and functional. Once the feature is ready Republic Wireless will be back in touch and will let me know how to link the World Wi-Fi number with the Republic phone and my primary domestic number.
I am excited to use this new feature and technology and wish the very best to Republic Wireless.
I like innovation!

Google has launched its latest in social networking Google Buzz. This puts Google in direct competition with the top shots like Twitter.
Our belief is that organizing the social information on the web — finding relevance in the noise — has become a large-scale challenge, one that Google’s experience in organizing information can help solve. We’ve recently launched innovations like real-time search and Social Search, and today we’re taking another big step with the introduction of a new product, Google Buzz.
Now the million dollar question that arises is, will it really buzz? I don’t have the answer as I am still waiting for my account to be activated with buzz. But I tried it on my iphone and was not too impressive. Will use it more and comment again here! Will appreciate your comments.
Few YouTube super-users say they’re receiving the “superphone” along with this note:
Dear YouTube Partners,

The first worm to infect the Apple iPhone has been discovered spreading “in the wild” in Australia.
The self-propagating program changes the phone’s wallpaper to a picture of 80s singer Rick Astley with the message “ikee is never going to give you up”.
The worm, known as ikee, only affects “jail-broken” phones, where a user has removed Apple’s protection mechanisms to allow the phone to run any software.
How to fix:
change ssh password for iphone
First off, fire up Cydia and download an application called MobileTerminal. It’s nice and small so shouldn’t take too long. Once downloaded launch it and you’ll be faced with a screen very much like the screenshot over on the left. It’s basically a terminal window just like OS X and linux.
Now just enter the command:
passwd
Now you’ll be asked for your old password which should be ‘alpine’, followed by your new one (twice). Nice and simple.
After this your jailbroken iphone is little more secure as it will be not easy fo anyone to install anything on your iphone now.
