How often do you find something at a store and wonder how much cheaper you could get it online? Now you don’t have to wonder–you can call 1-888-FRU-SHOP. That’s the number for Frucall, a first-of-its-kind price-comparison shopping service currently in Beta.

How Does Frucall Work?

Frucall is pretty simple to use despite all the technology behind it:

*Call 1-888-FRU-SHOP from any phone in the US.

At the prompt, enter the product’s bar code number. That’s the number directly below the bar code. (Hint: don’t forget the first and last digits, which may be offset from the rest of the code.)

*A computerized voice confirms the product’s name and states the price, as well as shipping information.

*The whole process takes about ten seconds. There are no signups, no downloads, and funky add-on services or charges to your phone bill.

Beta Limitations

Frucall has been launched to the public in Beta mode, though it has already been tested for more than two months on an invitation-only basis. The Beta service works well, though there are still a few limitations:

During the initial Beta period, Frucall only searches Amazon. The designers, however, are planning on adding additional sites soon. They eventually expect it to become an internet-wide ecommerce price comparison service for cell phones.

Because the Beta only searches Amazon, you can’t use it for things that aren’t sold on Amazon. The Beta is most valuable when you’re out shopping for clothes, appliances, electronics, books, music, DVDs and stuff like that, but for now you cannot use it for grocery shopping.

You won’t be able to buy the product using your phone until this feature is implemented sometime in summer 2006.

First-Ever Voice-Activated Mobile Price Comparison Service

Mobile phone technologies are all the rage these days, from movies to games to weather reports to shopping. For the most part, these technologies have a dedicated core of people who tend to be very comfortable navigating all the options on the little screens and touch pads of their cell phones. Right now, mobile applications aren’t as appealing to people who are less nimble-fingered, less technologically savvy–or just less patient.

Frucall, however, might just be the first mobile application both you and your grandmother could use. The usability factor for Frucall is high since it’s all voice-activated, and, ultimately, that’s what cell phones were made for: talking, not running software.

Looking out for people who actually like mobile software, Frucall’s designers are working on a WAP (mobile application) version as well, which will be available in a couple of months.

In the meantime, Frucall’s voice-activated interface is a blessing for die-hard cheapskates: they can call the toll-free number from a payphone without even having to pay cellphone airtime.

In short, if you’re serious about saving money, you just got another tool in your toolbox.

The operating system is responsible for the direct control and management of hardware and basic operation of the web server hosting the websites. It is the foundation on which the software applications are run. The windows OS (Operating System) is easier to administer in comparison to LINUX or UNIX based OS. Windows was introduced with the commercial use in mind for its success. It has a variety of support options available.The windows platform fully supports FrontPage, Active Server Pages, ASP.NET, VBScript and Java. The databases supported by windows are Microsoft SQL, MYSQL, MS Access and Excel.

Windows hosting services are used whenever one uses MS Access for database, ASP for delivering content and VB script for the enhancements of the site. If a website collects data from an Access database a window server is able to integrate this data flawlessly. The windows server makes the integration easier. It also provides the facility to use Active Server Pages (ASP) to create dynamic database determined websites. The windows based services at the same time also provide usability, performance and support for many programming languages like .net and visual basic. The front page extensions are supported by the windows server providing the use of front page for the web designing services. The uses of these extensions enable individuals to directly publish the website through FrontPage itself, instead of using separate FTP client software.

The different hosting platforms are available and can be selected according to the requirements as each has its own sets of advantages and disadvantages. The services provided by windows hosting definitely lead to the creation of highly interactive websites which provide complete reliability, scalability and back end support that is required in today’s demanding environment.

First, because of in the age at linux start the internet system still have a few speed extremely then not convenient to download linux kernel and all linux components come to set up because more will fully completed download it get time long ago. So, CD-ROM saller group for sets up a linux program then important duty first of linux distribution.



The second points, is in the age at this first also at all program at the components of linux operating system still during of development goes to according to one’s ability of program developer from the worldwide, thus leading linux to usable have rather a little moderately, So mostly software that distribute then is in “source code” which the lead will go to usable must use the technical step that calls “Program Compilation” then make not convenient or almost impossible to build the favor happen in group of newcomer users quickly follows the aim of linux distribution. So the linux distro group must prepare operating system software of oneself are in fully use actually then get achieve.



The third points, that is the hard step for linux operating system installation must touch redesign for easyly most don’t differ from order calling setup command in windows installation, including setting all the usability and refining the system for just boot with Linux CD-ROM and click next go to continually already you will have linux operating system that want, simple that is linux distro must making usability linux get into simple for general person.
