  पुरानै फ्रिक्वेन्सीमा फोरजी चलाउन दिइने सरकारले दूरसञ्चार कम्पनीलाई दोब्बर फिक्वेन्सी शुल्क तिरेर पहिलेकै ब्यान्डमा चौथो पुस्ताको (फोरजी) सेवा चलाउन दिने भएको छ। नयाँ नियमअनुसार अहिले तेस्रो पुस्ताको (थ्रिजी) सेवा चलाइरहेका कम्पनीले दोब्बर फ्रिक्वेन्सी रकम तिरेर फोरजी सेवा सुरु गर्न सक्ने छन्। फ्रिक्वेन्सी नीति परिमार्जन गरेर सरकारले सेवा प्रदायकलाई यस्तो सुविधा दिने भएको हो। नीति परिमार्जनको मस्यौदा नेपाल दूरसञ्चार प्राधिकरण सञ्चालक समितिले मंगलबार पारित गरेको छ। पारित मस्यौदा सूचना तथा सञ्चार मन्त्रालयमा पठाइसकेको प्राधिकरण प्रवक्ता मीनप्रसाद अर्यालले बताए। उनका अनुसार मन्त्रालयमा रहेको प्राविधिक समितिले प्रस्ताव स्वीकृत गरे रेडियो फ्रिक्वेन्सी (बाँडफाँट तथा मूल्य) निर्धारण समितिमा पेस हुने छ। समितिले पारित गरेपछि नीति लागू हुन्छ। परिमार्जित नीतिले प्रविधि तटस्थता (टेक्नोलोजी न्युट्रल) अपनाउन बाटो खुला गरिदिएको छ। प्रविधि तटस्थतामा जाँदा पुरानै ब्यान्डमा नयाँ प्रविधि चलाउन सकिन्छ। प्राधिकरणले स्वीकृत गरेको मस्यौदाअनुसार प्रविधि तटस्थातामा जाँदा अहिले ९ सय मेगाहर्ज ब्य...

Introducing free Skype Meetings   Microsoft is launching a free tool to simplify video conference calls. "Called Skype Meetings" it’s largely similar to using the traditional Skype  app, but with few features that make it easier to set up video calls and collaborate with your coworkers.

They’ll have to visit  www.skype.com/meetings  and register to use the tool, a process which should take just a minute or two.

Amazon Prime Day returns on July 12 Oh boy bet you’re excited

Amazon’s Prime Day aka national internet junk yard sale day is making a return on July 12, despite   overwhelming disappointment from its inaugural year . Most of the  criticisms  from last year stem from the extreme hype and marketing around Prime Day. Users were expecting massive savings on big ticket items, only to find sales on basic household products like socks, plastic cups, and phone cases. Many users also complained that items in their wish lists were only discounted by a $1 or less. Users in massive need of lube, however, got a deal of a lifetime. But perhaps it will get better this year. Subreddit  r/Primedaydeals  is a good place to keep your eyes on when July 12 comes around as the site gets updated with new deals constantly. Remember: many of the items will be Prime-exclusive, so you will need a membership to take part in the savings. And if you’re not Amazon,  other retailers also saw a spike in sales ...
