[Review] LINE

Have you ever wonder which is the best app to use for social network. We all know that whats app has been the most popular app for quite a while as a replacement for text messages. But with LINE, we have something new. 





Whatever that Whatsapp is capable of, LINE is also capable of but LINE comes with a few extras...

Here are some of the cool features that I find with LINE.


If you are like many, you will find this extremely amazing...expressive stickers and emoticons...such emoticons and cute graphics have been one of the key features on LINE....as it makes communication becomes more than just words...sometimes, images speak a thousand words...I guess this is where LINE wins over Whatsapp....

Of course, this could also be the flaw of the app....imagine if someone kept sending emoticons and stickers to you on LINE....one could easily find it to be frustrating and annoying...

We all know that Group messages are important and LINE is making sure to include this key feature as well.
Group Messaging with your Favourite Friends or selected people would make communication in a group as well as group outing be organized easily. 

There are other ways for you to add friends such as using the Shake It feature or the QR codes...this is really where Whatsapp is missing...but I find the feature to be hardly useful...but still fun to have once in a while...

Wallpaper could also be easily customized...I'm sure this feature suits the females more than the guys...it's definitely not the killer feature but it's good to have it once you are bored with the usual background.

For me, I personally find one more feature in LINE that beats out the rest...the availability on the PC


One could easily access into LINE via the PC or even the tablet....For tablet, one would have to use the browser version at the moment. This is totally in line with what iMessage idea....so basically, LINE is integrating both the goods in iMessage, WhatsApp and the cute emoticons we once saw in WindowsLive Messenger...

Therefore, LINE is really an app that beats out most of its' competitors...very innovative and user friendly at the same time...a big thumbs up for the developers....

[Games] Bejeweled Blitz

If you are always on the go and in between you have about few minutes of break, there is a game that you might play in between the break. The game is short, addictive and you can even challenge your friends for high score over the Facebook account.



The game is Bejeweled Blitz by PopCap. In this game, you have 60 seconds to strategize, match and detonate as many gems as you can - just like the normal Bejeweled games, but only this time you have up to 60 seconds to play, which is good especially when you are playing it on a very short break.

Page to see where you rank among your friends in Facebook playing the game


There are options to play either offline aka challenging the imaginary challengers by the game itself (with the latest update), or you can login to your Facebook and compete with Facebook friends to see who get the highest score and the high score is not there forever, the competition will restart every week. Give the game a try and you will see how addictive it is.

SIM card Tablet PC launched in India

Tablet PC with SIM card facility: As there are more interest to SIM card facility available tablet we have decided to made entry about list of newly launched tablet with SIM card facility. Check this post it will be updated every time when a SIM card facility tablet get released.

In India SIM card tablets were preferred much. The reason of SIM card tablet preference is there is no adequate Wi-Fi in India. Only regions such as Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi and Hyderabad have many Wi-Fi hotspot. I am from Madurai, Tamilnadu and I don't get Wi-Fi hotspot connection everywhere. So far I accessed Wi-Fi at Anna Nagar. All this tablet doesn't have 3G facility in it. Please check the specification just by clicking on the tablet. All SIM card slot enabled tablet have SMS and Calling facility. SIM card tablets means that you can insert SIM like the way you do in mobile phone. But 3G facility must be specified by the Tablet PC manufacturers. Some SIM card enabled tablets like Reliance can use only Reliance SIM. So I recommend you to cross check with the official site. Some SIM card tablet may look like low cost but it misses other feature. Below is the SIM card slot tablets released so far.
