84% of rural India not aware of Internet

Yes it's true that only 16% people of rural area in India is sensible of Internet. Isn't it strange?

This is researched by Internet and Mobile Association of India (IMAI) that India is deficient in Internet and its facilities. But who is accountable for this scenario? The reason abaft is only "infrastructure". In rural areas, generally there is no adequate electirc supply, not having Internet Acess Point. Just because of this hinderance, Internet is not able to penetrate in rural areas of the country. 31% of rural population does not have Internet Access Point (IAP), 25% of population has no Internet connection, and 22% has no electricity. The figure brings forth the need to enhance the infrastructure setup with Government of India's schemes like CSC and SWAN (State Wide Area Network) scheme.

Speaking about the findings of the research, Dr.Subho Roy, President, IAMAI said "The high percentage of people in rural India who are not aware of Internet, underlines the need for better infrastructure and schemes such as CSC and SWAN. Such schemes will go long way in augmenting the Internet penetration in rural areas"

I hope atleast I have made you aware about the current scenario of our country. So awake and spread the awarness of technology and bring our country from developing to developed country.

Characteristics of a Good Programming Language

Till now there are many high level languages which are very popular, and there are others, which could not become so popular in-spite of being very powerful. There might be many reasons for the success of a language, but one obvious reason is the characteristics of the language. Several characteristics believed to be important with respect to making a programming language good are briefly discussed below. Simplicity A good programming language must be simple and easy to learn and use. For example, BASIC is liked by many programmers only because of its simplicity. Thus, a good programming language should provide a programmer with a clear, simple and unified set of concepts which can be easily grasped. It is also easy to develop and implement a compiler or an interpreter for a programming language that is simple. However, the power needed for the language should not be sacrificed for simplicity. The overall simplicity of a programming language strongly affects the readability of the pr...

Angular 4 and Firebase Authentication: Setup

If you have come to this article, it means you are keen to learn new technology and that too Firebase. I love Firebase because it provides all basic but important features of any web application. Take for example, authentication, which is cumbersome and risky if not implemented with utmost care. And when we have the integration of Angular and Firebase, it becomes a lot easier for a developer to build such crucial modules in less time with minimal efforts. In this article we will create a simple Angular application using Firebase. I am going ahead with the understanding that you know the benefits of Firebase and have little knowledge about it. There are plenty of posts out on the web if you are behind. Step 1: Install Angular CLI (if not installed). npm install -g angular-cli Step 2: Create new Angular 4 project. By default now angular CLI will create Angular 4 project so you need not fret. ng new firebase-authentication Step 3: Check whether the ne...
