How Whatsapp Earns

Whatsapp!!! Such a thing that it has added to the list of our day to day need. It's been a long time Whatsapp has been in the market and it's still FREE. So, ever thought how does Whatsapp earn money, it has no adds, nothing, but still earns a lot. The answer lies in the word "DATA".

Yes, it's only our data that gets Whatsapp earning so much. You may have seen that Whatsapp says that you need to pay $0.99 after a year of free usage, but have you or anyone you know have paid it ? Nah, even I haven't paid it, so this is surely not the option of earning revenue for such a big company.

The other way apps make money is the Ad way, but Whatsapp founder already stated that No adds, No games, No gimmicks. So Ad way isn't the way through which whatsapp earn.

As said, it's our data that makes Whatsapp wealthy. Yes, you read it right, even after not paying a single Penny, we are helping Whatsapp to grow millions of it. This concept is called Big Data or Data management.

We chat, send pics or videos that clearly depict our views likes dislikes. This whole conversation is stored in the Whatsapp server as it is in our local storage. Even a  DBMS expert can tell what a person likes and dislikes with such huge amount of amount, so imagine what Big Firms might get when so much info is in their hand? A lot !!!

This is how Whatsapp earns, it sells the backup data to big firms at a great value. This data helps firms in targeting people with same interest and field. That's the simple reason why, Face Book purchased whatsapp!!

Not only data, but the Geo location details that we send via Whatsapp is also of great use. Ever thought, on Face Book why we get offers, hotel ads, etc.. Of only places near our home location? This is cause the data whatsapp is giving to Face Book that reveals our information.

Don't worry your data might be exposed but it's still with the genuine guys, so sit back and enjoy What-sapping !! :)

VLSI viva compilation

All the below stuff is a compiled post from google of all the viva questions asked on vlsi and avlsi , do take a look  I've actually made this for me :P ( Last minute Reading Stuff :) ;) ) 1. Why does the present VLSI circuits use MOSFETs instead of BJTs? Compared to BJTs, MOSFETs can be made very small as they occupy very small silicon area on IC chip and are relatively simple in terms of manufacturing. Moreover digital and memory ICs can be implemented with circuits that use only MOSFETs i.e. no resistors, diodes, etc. 2. What are the various regions of operation of MOSFET? How are those regions used? MOSFET has three regions of operation: the cut-off region, the triode region, and the saturation region. The cut-off region and the triode region are used to operate as switch. The saturation region is used to operate as amplifier. 3. What is threshold voltage? The value of voltage between Gate and Source i.e. V GS at which a sufficient number of mobile e...

Microsoft BizTalk Server - Schemas - Things you should know!

Schema In BizTalk - What are they? - Schema is a structure of XML in BizTalk - it is stored in XSD format, meaning XML schema Definition - Used to handle messages that are coming in XML format or sending out in XML format TIP: BizTalk Editor saves schema files using utf-16 character encoding.  * Wiki defines*  Messages inside BizTalk are implemented through the XML documents and defined with the XML schemas in XSD standard  Some tips -     That's what it looks when you add a schema item to the project. Let's quickly wrap up some important properties, select the schema node and press F4: 1. Data Type - We have many options, from string to bool it defines what type of data the field would handle. 2. Default value -  If the field receives no input, we can a default value here 3. Min/Max occurs - This property decides the occurrence of field. If no value inserted it takes 1-Min and 1-Max meaning the field is mandatory. ...

What will you need?

       So to start up, first you'll need to get the following software in your pc installed and running properly. Arduino Uno Software from the link http://arduino.cc/en/main/software Processing Software from here https://processing.org/download/ Cracked Proteus Software from here  https://kickass.to/proteus-8-full-with-crack-working-t7621781.html Eagle if you need the pcb designing stuff https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0kiqAIRyB0peDF5eldKRFJDTmM/edit Psipce for simulation   http://pspice.en.malavida.com/       After setting up your pc with all the above software you are ready to follow the projects. :)
