    Justin Bieber got kicked out of Coachella Music Festival!

    Justin Bieber was allegedly stopped by security and asked to leave while trying to get backstage for Drake’s headline show at the Coachella Music Festival in California. According to sources, the security stopped Bieber from entering backstage to prevent him from getting bombed by his fans. Bieber, being the enfant terrible that he is, told the guards that he was personally invited by Drake and got into a heated argument with the Coachella security. He was then asked to leave from the area immediately.

  • Imagine paying extra money for every website you visit. Can’t? Then go #savetheinternet

    Imagine paying extra money for every website you visit. Can’t? Then go #savetheinternet

    If you still don’t know what net neutrality is you don’t deserve to be online. Net neutrality, in simple words, is a concept of providing internet as an equal service with equal access to everyone. As of now, there is no law in India about Net Neutrality but if we don’t support the cause, the internet will be broken into smaller fragments and you’ll have to purchase every little fragment separately to gain access to it (believe us, it’s coming your way soon).

    So think about this, you pay for the connection, you pay for your favourite websites and chances are that you might have to pay to gain access to some special sections of those websites too. As the men at AIB have righty pointed out, internet is the only place today where everyone is equal and this must not change.

    Watch this video by AIB to get this amazing explanation and log on to www.savetheinternet.in to support net neutrality. The internet needs you! The deadline is 24th April so leave everything and go save the internet now.

  • Snapchat’s new update is here and we are confused, to say the least

    Snapchat’s new update is here and we are confused, to say the least

    Snapchat’s January update (see here) did away with the ‘Best Friends’ feature making a lot of people happy and now it’s back. The good news is that only you get to see who sends you the most snaps and who you don’t reply to as often. And all this with the help of our beloved EMOJIS, YES! Here’s the scoop on everything new.

    Snapchat’s recent update has a new way of intimating its users about their relationship with their snap-buddies. With the help of various emojis (each one having its own meaning); Snapchat users can now find out which one of their friends they message the most and the ones that ‘need love’.

    If you see a ‘gold heart’ next to a person’s name on your Snapchat friends list, it means you message this person the most.

    If you see a smiling face with it’s teeth out (Grimace) then it means this person and you have a mutual best friend – both of you send snaps to a common person almost all the time.

    snap-chat-inpost1source

    If you see the smirk face emoji next to a friend’s name it means that they send you a lot of snaps but you are not generous enough in replying back.

    If you see the cool emoji (face with sunglasses) next to someone’s face it means that one of your best friends (a person you send a lot of snaps too) is one of their best friends.

    If you a see a smiley face next to a friends name, they are one of your best friends.

    The fire emoji means you’ve begun a ‘snapstreak’ with this friend and you’ve been snapping back and forth for consecutive days.

    snap-chat-inpost2source

    A ‘need love’ section has also been included in your list of friends to remind you of friends you don’t send snaps to. Apart from the above, there’s a low-light camera feature that improves picture quality for snaps clicked in the dark or poor lighting.
