Web Designing Trends and 2011

Since we are almost three months into the year I decided it was time to give my take on what may happen in web design in 2011. (At least I thought I should probably write it before the year was over. )
So, over the past several weeks I have read a number of my favourite web design magazines, web design blogs and articles and viewed a number of cutting edge websites, particularly outside of North America, so that I could share some thoughts about what appears to be some of the major trends in website design for 2011. There is nothing scientific contained here just some observations.
1. Less Use of Flash It is not the fact that Flash is not a great technology...(when used appropriately it is)...but in the past year or so it has been over used, misused, abused to the point that it has developed a bad reputation. Certainly, the ongoing shenanigans between Adobe (creator of Flash) and Apple (iPhone and iPad) are not helping the situation.

What is the mean of VPN and its work.


The initials VPN stand for the term Virtual Private Network. The aim and simple concept of a Virtual Private Network is that it provides users with the ability to access a private network (and therefore individual computers and servers on a private network) from a remote unsecured point outside of that network, without compromising the security of the private network itself.
In effect a VPN creates a tunnel through unsecured networks, which clients can use to access their private network without interference from the rest of the unsecured networks. As VPNs therefore have to transmit private information across unsecured networks such as the world wide web, they need to ensure that the data exchanged across these networks is kept secure by employing a combination of encryption on the data packets and authentication to allow access to only those users with permission.
Using these secure data packets VPN services can therefore be used to transmit any kind of data, including voice, media such as video and conventional data. They are also available from any kind of connection including 3G and DSL meaning that VPNs can be established from any device with a connection to the internet.

What is love.....?

LOVE

One of the most said words and most difficult to define is love. Many times love has been mistaken for infatuation or lust. Can we really create a definition for love or does our ability to understand what love is lie in illustrations and examples. What is the meaning of love?
To better understand what love is, it is important to look at its usage in different contexts. You have heard of men who tell ladies they love them and all they end up doing is to break their hearts. You've also heard of relationships or marriages where one partner falls from his or her rich status to a poor one due to a certain calamity, and the other partner divorces him or her. Obviously, they had 'fallen in love' before getting married to each other. And you have heard of marriages in which the partners seek each other's welfare unselfishly no matter the calamities that befall them.
These are three scenarios that will help us better understand what love really is and help us differentiate love from infatuation and lust. Looking at the circumstances through which the partners in the three scenarios came together, we can deduce that each couple "fell in love" with each other, but we can also observe a difference in how each of the abandoning partners in the first two scenarios and the faithful partners in the third scenario define love.
