Guys i want to share some of the new features available in our updated Techie.

First of all i congradulate the Admin to update our Techie after a long period.

The new Techie is very nice to look  now. some its features are:

1. The full Techie is now of crystal view it is very nice to see, and of in blue color theme so very cool for eyes

2.There are many panels available now are very useful for selecting what we need. for example The announcement panel, Latest panel, search panel, Magazine and comments panel, highlight panel, Tags, etc.. all are very nice and useful.

3. The bottom black panel is the highlight of all new, when we scroll the page it wont ggo away so its very useful to select where ever we in the page.

Disadvantages:

Eventhough lot of ne advantages is in updated Techie some disadvantages also there.

1. After we log in our account it doesnt show our user name in the Respective area, only it display Your account not our user name.

2. The articles are not properly alligned in the home page. some article occupy low area and some occuping large area.

Request to Admin:

I think now the Techie is used only by the staffs to publish their department details,, only few students are present in techie. So i request the admin to increase the number of Students in Techie.  

Still many students dont know about our Techie, and also i request the admin to make easy to create a techie Account for students.

Internet has become a standard medium of communication.

Internet has changed from a "nice to have" to a "must have".

The Purpose behind starting TECHIE :

1. It is easier to learn swimming in water.

It shows your ability to communicate with others.

In doing so, you learn.

Have the will and purpose to do (write) something, how to do (write) will follow.

Write purposefully to advance mankind and civilization.

A shortcut to avoid those boring english communication classes.

2. We have this

Techie Magazine, annual college magazine.

In Jan/Feb 2009, ECE students (girls) made an appeal to me that we don't release it on time.

Which was very true. Because everyone is busy in daily college events, we don't find time to collect, review, print & publish the magazine in time.

Failures in 2008:

We did try out this in college intranet server where every department had the task of developing their own website. But it did not go very well, as every staff or student had to know little web development, which was difficult for all departments except CSE, IT.

Discussions in Mid-2009:

Gopi, 2005 ECE, gglow helped me out in trying few things on his laptop. But the first idea never felt this good.

After that I had lot of discussions with many well-wishers and experimentations.
It was in July, we did all the testing and etc.

College website was running on a windows environment.
Techie.org was already taken. So we settled for uenathi.org/techie. All for Good.

So we have Techie now, that is always published [since August 10th 2009].
As of writing this we are in the process of converting Techie content 2008 and 2009.

3. Extending classrooms to homes. Same as first reason.

Advance yourself first. Don't worry about your english.

Correct your content later, as per reviewer comments.

4. We have only started, going forward you can change it include anything, like

interview questions, puzzles, games, etc

That would be nice, at this moment it is a Work in Progress.
However there is no scheduled end date.

It will largely depend on the reliability of the service mainly network.

UENATHI.ORG is the online part of the college intranet server. 'U' stands for ubuntu, as Ubuntu 8.04 powers the server.
