<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
I have been using ubuntu for the past 5 years and have done a lot of customization which helped me in organizing and optimizing the desktop and system for the time I spent on it. And this is how it looks now.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Recently I have seen an <a href="https://www.quora.com/What-are-some-cool-ways-programmers-customize-their-laptops/answer/Sandeep-Menon-46?srid=IaLd" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #f45145; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">answer in quora </a> regarding the customization done by programmers to their system and received a lot of requests to share how I did my setup. So in this post , I am going give a step by step guide on how to customize the ubuntu desktop.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

Kindly note that the steps below are based on the customization I have done based on my preferences and may not be suited for your use case. Nevertheless, these customization has proved to be worthy of my time and is helping me a lot as programmer on my day to day work.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #242d36; font-family: "PT Serif", Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 29px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 0.93103em; margin: 27px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
The system</h2>

I am currently using a Thinkpad T420 , Core i5 2.5 Ghz , 16GB ram and 120 GB SSD drive. You can read the post of how to upgrade your Thinkpad <a href="https://microideation.wordpress.com/2015/11/29/accelerating-the-performance-of-aging-laptop/" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #f45145; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">here</a>.</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 27px 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

Most of the customization links / installation commands are based on the Ubuntu 14.10 , you may find the alternate repository for other versions.</div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #242d36; font-family: "PT Serif", Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 29px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 0.93103em; margin: 27px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 27px 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

We will see each in details below:</div>
<h3 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; clear: both; color: #242d36; font-family: "PT Serif", Georgia, Times, serif; font-size: 23px; font-weight: inherit; line-height: 1.17391em; margin: 27px 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Disabling unity launcher</h3>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
I don’t have anything against the unity dash. It has improved a lot from the day it was first launched. But I still feel that the dash is missing so important actions and aesthetics that is required for the desktop. This may be due to the fact that I am also a fan of Mac look and feel<img alt="🙂" class="emoji" draggable="false" src="https://s0.wp.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/wpcom-smileys/twemoji/2/72x72/1f642.png" style="background: none !important; border: none !important; box-shadow: none !important; box-sizing: border-box; display: inline !important; height: 1em !important; margin: 0px 0.07em !important; max-width: 100%; padding: 0px !important; vertical-align: -0.1em !important; width: 1em !important;" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
So first things first, lets disable the unity launcher. But its not easy as it sounds. There is no option to disable the launcher completely !!!. I mean, there is not switch that you flip to remove the launcher. We need to do a hack for doing this. This will only prevent the launcher from showing up in the desktop.</div>
<ul style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin: 0px 0px 27px 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Right click on the desktop and click on “Change desktop background”</li>
<li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">It will open up the following dialog and select the tab “Behaviour”<br style="box-sizing: border-box;" /><img alt="Appearance_134" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1316" src="https://microideation.files.wordpress.com/2016/08/appearance_134.jpg?w=646" style="box-sizing: border-box; height: auto; max-width: 100%;" /></li>
<li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">We need to make sure that the reveal location is “Top left corner</li>
<li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Set the reveal sensitivity to “Low”</li>
<li style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Also set the “Auto hide the laucher” to true</li>
</ul>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
This will prevent the launcher from showing up in the desktop again.</div>

You can configure synapse by clicking on the top right button of synapse which opens the Settings screen. I have configured the <Super> Space as the trigger, you may set what best suits you.</div>

Configuring conky</h3>

One of the major elements that provide the unique look in the desktop is the conky tool. Conky is basically a customizable monitoring system that can draw over the desktop without affecting the windows.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For using conky , you need to install the conky tool first</div>

You can run conky by typing just “conky” on the terminal. Conky needs a configuration file to show the elements in the desktop. If conky is run without any parameters, then configuration is taken from ~/.conkyrc file. This is the file in your home directory.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
For my system, I have used a custom conky theme called Infinity conky and did some customizations of my own.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Details of the infinity conky theme can be seen <a href="http://www.noobslab.com/2012/06/install-infinity-conky-in-ubuntulinux.html" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #f45145; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.2s ease-in-out; vertical-align: baseline;">here</a></div>

You can find the file I am using in my github repository<br />

You will find .conky file and .conkyrc file. You need to put both under the home folder. Please note that the files and folders starting with . (dot) are hidden by default in the ubuntu file explorer. You will need to press Ctrl + H to show these files.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #656e7f; font-family: "Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 27px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Once the files are copied, you can kill conky and start again and it will display the conky configuration elements in your desktop. The .conkyrc file is optimized for the resolution of 1600 x 900 ( my display ) . You may play around with the offset values in conkyrc file to match your setup.</div>

Icons plan an important role in the look and feel of the system. I am currently using the numix circle icon set and has found it to really go well with the dock.</div>

Once you install the icons, you need to select the icon theme. This is done using an inevitable tool called “Ubuntu Tweak”. Install it using the following commands</div>

Their strategy has been to focus on conversion optimization. That means the chance of a user ending up booking a hotel given that they visit Booking.com’s site is much higher than other hotel booking services. The result is that they make significantly higher revenue per visit than their competition, which then allows them to outbid all of them in ad spending, because a click is worth more to them than anyone else. I heard they were the #1 advertiser by revenue on Google Adwords at one point.</div>

The fact that they are based in Amsterdam, they are owned by a company whose brand is a smaller internet product, and most of their traffic comes from ad spending, makes people forget about them, but they are one of the biggest and most profitable internet companies.</div>

<b>It is really simple. </b>Most of you are going to pay the same or probably more money to Jio compared to your current network provider. After reading this answer, you will realize what a clever businessman Mukesh Ambani is.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
I have been following the news about Jio since many years, and have written multiple articles about Jio in the past many months.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
<b>Why Mukesh Ambani wants to enter networking field so badly?</b></div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
This story requires us to know why Mukesh Ambani is investing so much in yet another telecom company especially when there is already another company named Reliance Communications. In 2002, when Dhirubhai Ambani died, there were some major ownership issues between his two sons - Anil Ambani & Mukesh Ambani. After some public feud between both the brothers for the control of Reliance empire, their mother intervened and split Reliance into two parts in 2005. Anil Ambani got telecom, power, entertainment and financial services business while Mukesh Ambani received Reliance Industries and IPCL. <a class="citation_link" href="https://www.quora.com/bookmarked_answers#AUuqb" id="cite-AUuqb" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1; outline: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: super;">[1]</a></div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Although Anil Ambani got the Reliance Communications, it was Mukesh Ambani who started it and revolutionized the Indian mobile industry by reducing the call rates in the early 2000s, which made mobile phones affordable to Indians. It was his baby all the way, while Anil Ambani was not even having a seat in it’s board of directors.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
That is not all. To prevent Mukesh Ambani from making another telecom company and competing with Reliance Communications, they had inserted a non-compete clause in the agreement. <a class="citation_link" href="https://www.quora.com/bookmarked_answers#NZLrM" id="cite-NZLrM" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1; outline: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: super;">[2]</a></div>

In 2010, as soon as the non-compete agreement was scrapped/expired, Mukesh Ambani bought 96% stake in Infotel Broadband which had won 4G spectrum in all sectors in India. <a class="citation_link" href="https://www.quora.com/bookmarked_answers#CxCaI" id="cite-CxCaI" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1; outline: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: super;">[3]</a> Later they renamed it to Jio, and started building fiber optic network around the country. <a class="citation_link" href="https://www.quora.com/bookmarked_answers#QJnIj" id="cite-QJnIj" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1; outline: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: super;">[4]</a></div>

Now, if you do not know much about Jio, then I recommend to read one of my previous answers. It will brief you about how awesome their network is. - <span class="qlink_container"><a href="https://www.quora.com/How-likely-is-that-Reliance-Jio-4G-will-revolutionize-the-internet-market-in-India/answer/Kshitij-Salgunan" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; text-decoration: none;">Kshitij Salgunan's answer to How likely is that Reliance Jio 4G will revolutionize the internet market in India?</a></span> <i>(Written 5 months ago, 1600 upvotes)</i></div>

This is not just about personal rivalry. With his experience in starting up Reliance communications, Mukesh Ambani knows that existing network providers are not good enough and that he can easily compete with them and win. Telecom is also a very lucrative business. It is like he gets to control Internet/communications in India.</div>

Everything Jio have done till now is intended at making money. Their tariff plans may look unbelievably awesome, but they will make more money by giving free voice calls than what the other companies make by charging you for it! <a class="citation_link" href="https://www.quora.com/bookmarked_answers#SslUf" id="cite-SslUf" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1; outline: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: super;">[5]</a></div>

In India, the monthly average revenue per user (ARPU) the current network providers get is around Rs 150 per month. That is the money they get on average from each user. If you spend over Rs250 per month, you are considered a high value customer. <a class="citation_link" href="https://www.quora.com/bookmarked_answers#FuQiT" id="cite-FuQiT" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; font-size: 11px; line-height: 1; outline: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: super;">[6]</a></div>

Which plan would you choose? If you are a voice-only kind of person, then you would be okay with the Rs 149 per 28 days plan, as you will get free unlimited voice calls. But, even though you are not explicitly paying for voice, you are already paying over Rs 150 per month, thus their ARPU will by default be as good as the current players.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
If you are someone who uses over Rs 150 worth of voice calls every month then it is a totally awesome plan for you. But, my point is that other telecom companies make about Rs 150 per month on average from each user by charging for voice, SMS, data and roaming. Jio will be making the same/more amount of money on average from each user even after providing SMS, roaming and voice calls for free, by just pricing things differently.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Now, if you are a moderately data using person, which plan would you choose? Did you see that there is no plan in-between the Rs 149 and Rs 499 plans? This is basically a psychological trick to get you into the Rs 499 plan. Many people will compare it with the smaller plan and see that you are getting Unlimited 4G night data and choose atleast the 499 plan.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
They do have some smaller plans at Rs 19, 199 and 299, but these plans do not really offer any more value than their main plans as they have even less validity. Also, it offers less data per rupee. For example the 299 plan only offers 21 day validity and 2GB data. This may be adequate for many people, but if you ever exceed the 2GB limit, then you will have to purchase ‘addon packs’ and these addon pack will have the validity of the main pack. So, if you recharge on day 20 of this plan, then you will get only one day validity for the addon. For practical purposes, you will be spending more for lesser value through these packs. The Rs19 pack maybe useful for those who want to use some internet & voice calling once in a while.</div>

Now, again see that if you want to really use more than 4GB of 4G, then you have to spend double and move to the 999 plan. Did you notice that there is nothing in-between?</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Also, notice that all these plans are for 28 days which can easily be perceived as ‘a month’ by most people. If we divide the number of days in an year with 28, we will realize that we are paying for 13 ‘billable months’ in an year. (365/28=13.03)</div>

Did you see that even their highest plans doesn’t go as low as their advertised Rs 50/GB rate. Jio came up with this Rs50/GB rate by adding the wifi-access you are getting, but I excluded it because it is not feasible for most people to utilize this as wifi hotspots are not available everywhere. It would be useful for you if there is a wifi hotspot near your house, at your work-place or your college.</div>

Once you have build an entire network infrastructure, it really doesn't cost anything for the network provider to give you internet data. I have explained this in the form of a story in one of my other answers - <span class="qlink_container"><a href="https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-cost-of-the-Internet-How-much-extra-are-we-paying/answer/Kshitij-Salgunan" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #2b6dad; text-decoration: none;">Kshitij Salgunan's answer to What is the cost of the Internet?

The reason why most internet providers limit your data is basically because they do not have enough bandwidth to handle so much data. In the case of Jio, they have already laid an awesome fiber optic network which is designed to even handle the 5G and maybe 6G. So, they do not have much of the data bandwidth problem.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Other telecom companies were primarily made to handle voice calls and they have limited data bandwidth. Also, other companies do not own nationwide fiber network, so they have to pay to use the fiber network of other companies. This is the reason other companies don’t usually provide unlimited plans.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
Jio currently have the ability to provide truly unlimited data plans, but they will not do so, because that will decrease their profits. They have already decreased prices on average by 50%. This means people will anyway be happy to use their services. If they provide more GBs in the lower end plans, then lesser people will buy their higher plans. So, currently their pricing is optimally placed to increase their profit. When other companies reduce their prices, it is likely that Jio will also further reduce their prices.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
And, the unlimited night usage is only valid for hours in-between 2AM and 5AM</div>

Again, Jio has an all IP network, so all voice calls will go through the internet just like skype. There is not really any point in charging for voice anymore. It is an outdated system to charge for voice calls and there shouldn’t really be any surprise in why Jio totally abandoned it.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
If hypothetically, Jio had tariff for voice calls, then some company similar to WhatsApp would have launched an app through which you can do free voice call over the internet (infact WhatsApp itself has a low quality voice-call option). Once everyone has a good internet connection, people would anyway use such services to make their calls. (It will be an app to app call, similar to current whatsapp messages.)</div>

The only costs Jio incurs is some 14 paise which they have to pay as interconnect fee to the operator’s network you called. This should be considered a temporary operational cost. Moreover, TRAI is likely to either further reduce this interconnect fee or make it free in the near future.</div>

Many of you may be knowing about their LYF phones. Few months ago, purchasing these phones were the only way you could get access to a Jio Sim Card to get their their free unlimited preview offer. Did you ever wonder why they have so many versions of these phones?</div>
<div class="qtext_image_wrapper" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; position: relative;">

Nearly all of their phones have very low specs compared to the competition at the price point they sell. The only reason why people bought their phones were because of the unlimited internet+voice calls preview offer.</div>
<div class="qtext_para" style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 1em; padding: 0px;">
This was a very clever move by Jio. The reason why there are so many versions of these phones is because of this business model:</div>
<ol style="color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 2em 1em 0px; padding: 0px;">
<li style="left: 2em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em; position: relative;">Jio would go to China and then buy previous generation unsold 4G phones for cheap prices in bulk. No one wants to buy these phones, so obviously the manufactures will happily sell it for a very low price. (This is oversimplification, they really do not have to buy old phones, instead they need to just choose a manufacturer who is ready to build them phones with whatever previous generation components are cheapily available in the market. They currently have 5 manufacturers including ZTE and Intex.)</li>
<li style="left: 2em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em; position: relative;">Then it is re-labeled and sold in India. This is how they have several phones with totally different specs.</li>
<li style="left: 2em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em; position: relative;">A totally outdated phone which no one would otherwise buy is coupled with Jio preview offer and now everyone wants to buy it just for the Jio offer.</li>
<li style="left: 2em; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.7em; position: relative;">Jio can now sell these phones and make profit. Plus, they get to test their network and solve the bugs. Plus, they can venture out into the mobile device market.</li>

They are currently giving these apps for free till 2018. But, that is done so that they can get maximum users to get addicted to these apps. Then they can start subscription charges for these apps. Instead of paying for your TV service or Movie-DVD or Magazines, Jio wants you to pay them.</div>

Apart from that, these apps are locked to Jio network. So, a person using any other internet service won’t be able to use it. Thus, this will force other people into joining Jio.

But, you are likely to spend the same amount of money over the time and consume 10GB of data for Rs 1000, instead. This is because 4G speeds are awesome and now there are many more ways to spend the data. And, since you have the budget for it, you are likely to spend more.</div>

Also, we absolutely need competition in this stagnated telecom industry which is currently dominated by players who may have secretly made agreements with each other to not compete on the basis of price.

By just making their tariff plan in such a way that most people interested in 4G have to pay over Rs 500 per month, Jio will be making way more money than the current players.

A good business is the one which is win-win for all parties involved, and Jio is doing it pretty well. You, as a customer will get 2x to 3x more value for your money, yet Jio will make make as much profit as existing telecoms by pricing things differently.</div>

<span class="custom-caption" style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: "rosarivo" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px;">Reliance Jio 4G services are live, but you need to read all the terms and conditions carefully. We take a detailed look. (Source: Reuters)</span><span style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: "rosarivo" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px;"></span><br />
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
Reliance Jio’s <a href="http://indianexpress.com/tag/4g/" style="color: #00509c; text-decoration: none;">4G</a> services are now live and for customers who sign up data and voice will be free till December 31, 2016, after which tariffs come into force. Jio’s 4G service will offer free voice-calling to customers, and claims to have the lowest data rates in the world starting at Rs 50 per GB. The plans are starting at Rs 19 and with free voice-calling. However, there’s a lot of fineprint text one needs to read to fully understand what Jio is actually offering.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
Here’s a look at the terms and conditions of the Reliance Jio service, that one needs to consider before signing up for the service.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
For starters, the Jio service’s voice-calling is free for sure, but<strong> video calls you make on the network will be debited via your data-calling pack.</strong> The plans start from January 1, 2017.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
The <strong>free WiFi data benefit</strong> in your prepaid and postpaid plans will<strong> only work through public WiFi hotspots of Reliance Jio</strong>. A user needs to access and log-in on the Reliance Jio WiFi app to access these, after you have located an actual WiFi hotspot.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
The deal about the <strong>“Unlimited at Night”, means data that is used between 2am and 5am. </strong>If you use beyond this, your regular data pack will apply.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
On the Jio apps, <strong>the subscription is free for now</strong>, but <strong>any data used during these apps will be cut from your regular data pack </strong>applicable at the time. This also includes video calls. Interestingly, these<strong>Jio apps won’t work on non-Jio</strong> Networks, and you will need to be on Reliance Jio 4G to actually access these apps.</div>
<div class="embed-dailymotion" style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">

<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
Planning to start your Jio prepaid recharge with the low-budget packs? Reliance Jio says prepaid packs with denominations<strong> Rs 19, Rs 129 and Rs 299 cannot be used as the first recharge by a new customer.</strong> Also the <strong>Rs 19 and Rs 129 data pack have a validity of one day and seven days respectively, which is quite less.</strong><br />

<span class="custom-caption" style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: "rosarivo" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px;">Reliance Jio 4G tariff plans for prepaid customers: Note post-data pack, the rates are Rs 250/GB.</span><span style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: "rosarivo" , "georgia" , serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px;"></span><br />
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
So what happens if you run out of the 4GB data pack? The charging rates <strong>don’t start</strong> at Rs 50 per GB. <strong>Instead, the rate is Rs 250/GB</strong> with 10 KB charging pulse, which is not exactly cheap. And <strong>on postpaid plans</strong>, if you exhaust the free 4G LTE data, the extra data will be free but at a <strong>reduced speed of 128Kbps</strong>, which we all know is not enough to run anything fun.</div>

Reliance Jio is offering 15 per cent discount for postpaid users who opt for auto-debit option using credit/debit cards/online transfer for their bill. Students with valid ID also get 25 per cent additional 4G and WiFi data benefits.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
All local and STD video calls in home and national roaming will be charged only for data usage. Data on roaming has the same rates as data in your home circle.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">

Reliance Jio <strong>will give users 100 local and national SMS free per day in most prepaid plans.</strong> Reliance has not specified what happens should one exceed this 100 free SMS limit on any one day.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
If you’re planning to use <strong>the </strong>Jio<strong> SIM only for data usage, then watch out.</strong></div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
In the fine print for prepaid vouchers, this is what it reads, “<em>The account validity will be automatically extended however <strong>the mobile connection will be deactivated if there is no voice/video call (outgoing or incoming) or an outgoing SMS or a data session</strong> (upload or download) or usage of Value Added Services, for a continuous period of 90 days and in case the main account balance is less than Rs 20 at the discretion of RJIL. Upon deactivation, all account balances will be forfeited and a grace period of 15 days will be provided within which the subscriber can retain the deactivated number by paying a fee of Rs 20. If the subscriber main account balance is Rs 20 or more, a number retention charge of Rs 20 will be automatically deducted and the non-usage period will be extended by 30 days.”</em></div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
So as Reliance customer <strong>you need to maintain more than Rs 20 as balance</strong> and video/voice calls in order to continue retaining the number.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">

There’s also links to Reliance Jio Prepaid vouchers on the Plan page of Jio.com which list out the pricing for the calls, SMS, on roaming, home. Rates here are<strong> </strong>shown as<strong> Rs 1/SMS and voice call charges are 2p per second and 5 per second for video across the board.</strong> These are part of Start Up Kit. The Start Up Kit priced at Rs 10 (inclusive of all taxes) and benefits listed under these apply till December 31. According to the fine print, “subscribers can start availing the above Plan Vouchers with effect from 5th September 2016,” which is today.</div>
<div style="background-color: #fcfcfc; color: #333333; font-family: Rosarivo, Georgia, serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
It’s not clear how these are different from the other plans, and whether applying these vouchers will mean calls will be charged by Jio.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
About Internet<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Hello Guys...!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Do you all know what exactly the
Internet is ?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It can be simply defined as a
network of networks which consists of millions of networks.All the websites
which we open in our day to day life are nothing but computer or a group of
computers(Clustered Computers which have more CPU's to handle more data and
processes).So,these computers are identified by their IP address every website
has an IP address to identify that it belongs to a particular system.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It will be difficlut to remember
the IP addresses of different websites if it was the only way to access the
website that is the reason the organisation world wide web has come with a
thing called URL(Uniform Resource Locater).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Example:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
www.google.com can also be
accessed by its IP address<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If you want to find the IP
address of a website you can ping that website in Command Prompt (windows) or
Terminal (Linux)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Ping command is used to know
whether that website or any Computer is active or not.It sends some data
packets to that website or computer and request it to send it back so if tahts
ystem is active it sends back the packets if it is not active they go waste
thus we can know whether it is active or not.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If we type "ping www.google.com"<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH1tpE1NZFls-dswjynHr_tzOL10e8X581wsMZyZ4c76UtDZfk-pg9F9OvFzHXHiijKRUcFGvonOc-BuI3L8Ex4ikOBXM4yM7eX1kmFChnQNBjmNfDhipQKQoO_tiE_qVAQjoqmwHKMj4/s1600/Untitled.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" height="126" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH1tpE1NZFls-dswjynHr_tzOL10e8X581wsMZyZ4c76UtDZfk-pg9F9OvFzHXHiijKRUcFGvonOc-BuI3L8Ex4ikOBXM4yM7eX1kmFChnQNBjmNfDhipQKQoO_tiE_qVAQjoqmwHKMj4/s320/Untitled.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We can see the ip address and
details abput how many packets we have sent and received.This internet is free
and everyone can use it so you might get a doubt the why we are paying the
mobile operators or other ISP's who ever maybe.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We are not paying for internet we
are actually paying to connect to that global network(which is internet).Where
google,yahoo,bing,facebook...etc.All these are in a network so we are paying to
connect to that network.Mobile operators and other ISP's they need to do some
work connecting to all areas.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
If we take mobile operators he
needs to do the cabling and other things to connect to the globalnetwork he
needs to connect every signal producing tower to a place where he connects to the internet.As 2G 3G 4G
comes he needs to install new cable or introduce something else which costs a
lot because many people connect.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Now we have got used to internet
a lot , mobile operators want to use this and trying to start charging for
basic services like whatsapp,google which were free and facebook wants use this
situation and make Indians feel good about facebook.Infuture facebook may
introduce something like this where we may feel to pay as they were helping us
when mobile operators were charging.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

Please support NetNeutrality <o:p></o:p></div>
