Ever wondered to set a webserver  on your own  and declare access from the Internet? Seems challenging and expensive. Yes it will be if you plan to do it professionally, but setting up a experimental and temporary one is not that hard; trust me. Here I will cover the basic procedure for setting up that experimental server. 

If you are a blogger using Google's Blogger platform, I'm sure you have met with some Widgets which you can add to your blog as simply as Clicking a button. While most blogger widget makers provide this One-click installation method, you too can!

Peer-to-peer is a networking model where the two parties involved in either sides of a connection have the same functionality. In contrast, Server-Client model offers one party to run a service while the other uses it. In P2P , both parties are servers+clients themselves and each party is called a 'node'. For two devices to connect P2P,

The final transit of Venus in 21st century took place on 5 th and 6 th of June 2012. The transit lasted for 6 hours and 30 minutes. Transit of Venus is considered a rarest predictable phenomenon. Venus transits occur in pairs separated by 8 years of time and each pair is separated by more than a century. The first transit of this century took place in year 2004 on 8 th of June.

Visual Basic applications exhibit considerable dependencies. In order to execute a Visual Basic application, those have to be fulfilled. The special environment which backups execution of VB apps is called the VB runtime environment. Unlike most runtime dependencies exhibited by similar languages, VB is a relatively special case. The VB executable is a true PE(Portable Executable) file directly executable by Windows OS. The runtime environment is required in the middle way as the VB app starts relying on the runtime environment to do work for itself. (Read more on Ups and Downs of VB )

Visual Basic 6.0 was released in 1998, it gained huge popularity and became one of the best products of the time. However within the next few years, rather than an updated version, Microsoft announced a new product, .NET which was a totally new environment where there is no backward compatibility with previous VB applications. .NET hit the market in 2002 with VB.NET replacing VB 6.0  Introducing a new language is a significant risk, both from technical and marketing points of view. But Microsoft risked a new system without continuing their proven success at the time. Why?

Microsoft Visual Basic has come a long way since 1991 when it was officially declared. Since its introduction, it revolutionized the world of software development. By the way credit to the 'Visual' concept goes to some one else(find out it here ). It made software development so easy that soon it became one of the most popular programming languages of all time.
