<br />

<br />
<br />
I love the overall experience of using this new MacBook Pro. It’s definitely a good upgrade compared to its previous version. It’s thin and super light, making it easy to carry around. The touch bar, although not that useful yet, looks well designed and adds a nice touch to the overall look.<br />
<br />
The Force Touch trackpad is twice as its previous model, and the keyboard is improved and upgraded for better typing experience.<br />
<br />
Battery life and performance are few things that could have been improved even further.<br />
<br />
And the major downside I see is that it’s seriously overpriced!
You will surely love the new MacBook Pro, but if it's worth the price is another story.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3631410346804741443.post-22434254960377557712016-09-03T12:32:00.001+01:002016-09-03T12:37:23.034+01:00Free Digital Photography Course From a Stanford ProfessorA former Stanford Professor has published his complete Digital Photography course and made it available to everyone.<br />

Google Developer Agency program helps agencies to receive dedicated training and access to their latest products and APIs.<br />
<br />
The certification can be really useful to agencies to gain recognition and validity to their high-quality work.<br />
<br />
Apart from being helpful to Agencies, the certification can also be helpful to others that are looking to hire agencies for their development works.<br />
<br />
Google had previously published Outsourcing Playbook (Android Development) for those looking to outsource their works.<br />

Apart from top-level domain names such as .com that has 123 million registrations, what other domain names mark the global chart?<br />
<br />
An interesting study from <a href="http://www.nominet.uk/" target="_blank">Nominet</a> reveals some surprising data on the global internet use.<br />
<br />
The result is a map visualising the online world based on the number of registrations within each country’s internet domain* —Example, .uk for the UK, .de for Germany, .cn for China, and so on.<br />
<br />
Here's what the online map and list of the countries look like.<br />

<br />
See the below chart to see the companies and the timeline of their products to reach the Billion users mark.<br />

Google's seven products include: Search, Gmail, Maps, YouTube, Android, Chrome, and Play.<br />
<br />
Interestingly, one of the most valuable companies Apple has yet to reach that mark!<br />

I am sure coding and being able to talk to computers will become more and more important in the near future.<br />
<br />
Coding can be soon important as learning Maths or Science as a child in school. It will be an important skill as Communication or any other basic skill.<br />
<br />
I love resources that can help learn coding - both to learn for myself and to recommend others.<br />
<br />
I mostly use <a href="http://referrals.trhou.se/pradeepdotco" target="_blank">Treehouse</a> and <a href="https://pradeepsingh.com/lynda" target="_blank">Lynda.com</a> as part of my regular learning but both of them are paid platforms and it might not be accessible to everyone.<br />
<br />
It's always interesting to explore some innovative ways (even better when it's free) to learn code. One such collection that caught my attention today is the Product Hunt collection of Learning to Code.<br />
<br />
If you aren't familiar with Product Hunt collection, it's a list of top products for a subject (in this case coding) voted on the platform.<br />
<br />
Explore a list of apps and resources in <a href="https://www.producthunt.com/@mscccc/collections/learning-to-code" target="_blank">this latest Product Hunt Collection</a> to help you learn how to code.<br />
<br />
I have used most of the platforms and some are completely free to use!<br />
