Facebook timeline
Thursday, June 7, 2012
Timeline is the new interface of famous social site Facebook that was introduced by its developers team on 22 Sept. 2011.Actually the timeline is a way of displaying a list of events in
chronological order, sometimes described as a project artifact. It is
typically a graphic design showing a long bar labeled with dates
alongside itself and (usually) events labeled on points where they would
have happened.It is much graphical representation of your Facebook profile.It is considered as unique view of your profile but with passage of time user find it more boring and hard to use. My personal view is also against it, there are many flaws in timeline, it is not for naive user and it is less user friendly. But unfortunately to all 800 million users on its network. Although the new profile
layout offers new and interesting features, some users on Facebook are
finding it too complicated and cluttered with the advertisements and
news ticker on the right hand side. Annoyed users are dreadfully finding ways to disable and get rid of the Timeline feature.
Facebook released a Developer application through which you could enable the Timeline
and test it. Users also had an option to downgrade to the old profile
by simply deleting the app from the Developer settings page.
Now that the Timeline has been released for all users, Facebook stated
that it will go live automatically after seven days, no matter if you
like it or not. Timeline is here to stay, at least for the next few
months. Unfortunately, there is no way you can disable it.

Molecular Identification System
Wednesday, December 29, 2010
University of Gujrat is one the most active universities in Pakistan that are working on research and technology.One step step of this series is "Molecular Identification System" developed by zoology department in molecular biology.According to idea
The use of 16S rRNA gene sequences the most common housekeeping genetic marker which can be used for molecular identification of bacteria. These reasons behind this idea include:
- Its presence in almost all bacteria, often existing as a multigene family, or operons
- The function of the 16S rRNA gene over time has not changed, suggesting that random sequence changes are a more accurate measure of time (evolution)
So keeping in view the above facts, one can easily identify the bacterial samples by this latest technique. It provides the authentic and ultimate bacterial identification. Moreover, it reduces the expenses and time for the process. Knowing the significance of the technique they started working to establish it in lab and after the series of experiments they were able to develop it recently, using solely own lab resources.
This shall enhance the research in Biotechnology and Microbiology at University of Gujrat (UOG). It can also be used frequently and effectively in Clinical Diagnostics. We are applying this identification system in our lab to the bacterial samples from different sources (agricultural field soils, industrial effluents, clinical isolates).
