Find Current Location of Indian Trains on Google Maps: Rail Radar

Posted: 10 Oct 2012 10:39 PM PDT

Rail Radar allows users to find location of Indian Trains on Google Maps. This website shows real time location of most of the popular trains, with a delay of 5 minutes or more.

India has one of the biggest rail networks in the world. There are about 11,000 trains that operate everyday, which connect nearly 7,500 stations. Generally if anyone wants to enquire about train timings or the delay in timings, they visit the Train Enquiry Website, or use Indian Rail Info, and IRCTC app on mobile. But now this website lets you track your train's location on a Google map. The train's location is shown Live!

Features Of Rail Radar:

Rail Radar provides you with the information of most of the passenger trains operated by Indian Railways. It does not provide information on Goods or Cargo trains.

You just need to open the website in a browser and you can see the train location indicated in small arrows. On the top right you can see how many trains are running and percentage of trains on time and delayed.

Note: If a train is running with a delay of 15 minutes or less, it is shown as “On Time”.

So, let's quickly go through the features:

The train currently running on time are indicated with a Blue Color.
The train currently running late are indicated with a Red Color.
A thick Yellow Line is indicates route already covered by the train.
Dotted Yellow Line indicates the route to be covered by the train.
The + symbol on the webpage indicates Zoom in.
The – symbol indicates zoom out.
There are other symbols also; which are shown in below screenshot.

How To Use Rail Radar To Find Train Location:

Rail Radar is very easy to use. The interface is user friendly and it's easy to spot your train's location.

You can use the Search tab located on the right side of the web page to search for train number or train name or station name to spot your train; as shown in below screenshot.

To know more information on Rail Radar, click on Information button located below the search button.
To know what all the symbols represent, click on Legend button located below the information button.
To know the exact geographical location of your train, hover your mouse over the map and point it on an arrow. It displays the details of stations between which the train is running, the train name, and number also.

Click on the arrow of the desired train and you will find more details about when it started, next halt station, and last status (as shown in below screenshot).

Indian Railways is the third largest rail network in the world and it would also be efficient if the trains run on schedule. But that's a little difficult process, so websites like these help users to keep track of their train location and their delay time. Make good use of this website when you want to know a train’s status.

These are just some of the functions that you get with Calculatormatik, and as you can see from the list above, conversion isn’t the only thing that this free unit converter can do.

How to Convert Units with This Free Unit Converter:

Let’s start with unit conversions, more precisely with weight conversion. There’s no particular reason why we chose weight, the conversion works the same for every other unit of measurement. The first step that you need to take is find the weight in the list of possible calculations and conversions.

A small drawback of Calculatormatik would be that there’s no grouping of conversion and calculation functions, everything is listed and mixed up together which makes finding the tool you want a bit problematic. When you do find what you need, mark the conversion of calculation with a left mouse click and then click Start. New window should pop-up where you’ll actually do the conversion. See image above.

How to solve Mathematical Equations with Calculatormatik:

There’s actually a few mathematical equations which are supported, see list above, but for the purpose of this demonstration we’re gonna use quadratic equation.

Do the same thing that we did for the weight, but now only select Quadratic Equation Solver from the list. In the window that pops-up enter the numbers for the a,b,c and the solution, hit solve. Program is gonna present you with the solutions of the equation, if it has a solution.

Conclusion

These simple conversions and calculations that we showed here are just the tip of the iceberg. A lot more can be done with Calculatormatik and if you are looking for a way of how you can combine all of your unit conversions, both royal and metric, and of course calculation also, then this free utility is just the thing for you. If you’re skeptical, then just try it out, it’s portable and very small, you won’t have to wait long for download and not at all when it comes to installation.

Windows 8 RSS Reader App: Dark RSS Reader

Posted: 10 Oct 2012 01:00 PM PDT

Dark RSS Reader is a free RSS reader for Windows 8 available under the 'News & Weather' category in Windows 8 app store. This Windows 8 RSS reader app lets you keep yourself abreast with all the latest information related to a particular topic.

You can add columns showing updated feeds of a specific topic, mark a News for reading it later, filter news by keywords, highlight News by keywords, pin a particular feed, customize feeds' refresh time, and much more. This free Windows 8 RSS reader support feeds from RSS, ATOM and RDF.

The main page of this Windows 8 RSS Reader app shows a quick overview of all the latest updates related to different pinned topics. If you want to continue reading a particular feed item, just click on that tile → this will open the selected News in a full-screen mode where you can read more about it.

If you want to open that feed item at original website, just click on 'Read More' option given at the bottom of the screen. This will open that feed item in the default web browser.

How To Add New Feeds, Remove or Update Existing Ones:

In order to add new feed columns in the interface of this Windows 8 RSS Reader app, remove or update existing ones, just follow the below given instructions:

Press 'Win+C' in combination to open the Charms bar.
This action will quickly open a vertical panel along with various options, at the right-corner of the screen.
Click on 'Settings' option to customize the settings.
Click on 'RSS Feed Subscriptions' option. Here comes the screen to manage all your RSS subscriptions.

Right click anywhere on the screen. This action will open a horizontal panel along with various customization options, at the extreme bottom of the screen.
Now, to add a new feed, just click on '+' button. You can either enter a specific URL to add feed of that website or just search for RSS feeds. To remove existing feeds, just select a feed that you want to delete and click on 'x' button. The good part here is that it does not deletes the feed subscription completely. You still have an option to restore it, in case you wish to, in future. You can also edit or update existing feeds. For this, you need to click on 'Edit' button and modify the URL or update it completely.

Import RSS Feeds from Google Reader:

One of the biggest drawback of this RSS reader app for Windows 8 is that it does not provide an option to sync with Google Reader. However, it does provide an Import option to do a one time import of all your RSS feeds from Google Reader, and quickly add them in Dark RSS Reader.

There is an 'Import' option placed just beside the 'Add' button. As you click on it, two options will appear: Google Reader and OPML Files. Well..they do what they say: 'Import'. You can only import all your feeds from your Google Reader and can not sync it. I repeat, just 'import' and can not 'sync'. The other option OPML – Files lets you import your OPML file that you would have downloaded from your existing RSS reader.

Similar applications: RSS Feeds in 3D Styles, Android RSS Reader Apps.

What I Liked about This RSS Reader for Windows 8:

The attractive thing about this RSS reader for Windows 8 is its column-based interface. Yes..the feeds have been separated in various columns. Each column shows you the overview of feeds in different topics, and in tiles-form. The best part is that you can add more columns in its interface, filtering the News as per your requirement. Scrolling the mouse wheel to the right will let you view additional columns you have added.

Filter Items by Keywords: To filter News by keywords, just press 'Win+C' combination to let the Charms bar appear. Now, click on 'Settings' option → a vertical panel at the right-side of the screen will appear, click on 'News Filter' option. Now, you must be thinking what's the use of this feature? The app will filter News and hide the messages related to the keywords added here. To add more keywords in the 'News Filter' option, right-click anywhere on the screen and click on the '+' button given at the bottom.

Highlight Feed Items for Selected Keywords: In addition, you can also highlight News by keywords. For this, click on 'News Notifications' option placed under the 'Settings'. The RSS reader app will highlight News related to the keywords added here at 'News Notifications'. Now, the interesting part here is that the feed items that have the keywords for which you mentioned notification keywords will be highlighted with a bright Red mark to let you differentiate clearly. Take a look at the below given screenshot to see bright Red marks with some of the new items.

Integration with Dark RSS Reader: Another good part is the configuration with the Dark RSS Reader account. If you have an account with Dark RSS Reader, you can easily configure it with this Windows 8 RSS reader app. This will let you track all your RSS feeds that you receive in your Dark RSS Reader account, without even touching the browser. For this, just click on 'Windows Phone Synchronization' given in the 'Settings' option.

And What I did not…

I found the 'Import' option incomplete in this Windows 8 RSS Reader app. It would have been more useful and interesting if the developers had added a 'sync with Google Reader' feature. Although, you can import feeds from there, but still a 'syncing' part is missing.

Another thing is its webpage browsing assistance. It’s nice that we have a 'Read More' button to read about a particular feed in detail. But, the link is opened in the default web browser. Inbuilt browsing would have made the app more popular among users (like, the inbuilt browsing feature in Windows 8 Twitter App).

How To Install Windows 8 RSS Reader App:

Go onto the Windows 8 Store
Press 'Win+Q' combination to let the search bar appear.
Type Dark RSS Reader to search for the app.
Click on 'Install' button to download the app.
Soon, you will find the app installed in your Windows 8 start menu.

In a nutshell, Dark RSS Reader app for Windows 8 is quite interesting and utility app that keeps you updated with all the latest actions happening all over the world. Go ahead and download Dark RSS Reader on your Windows 8 system now. However, if you are stuck with Google Reader, then you might want to give Dark RSS Reader a miss ( I will).

World Time App for iPhone: Know Time of Multiple Countries Together

Posted: 10 Oct 2012 10:00 AM PDT

World Time is a free iPhone app that shows time for multiple countries and cities on iPhone. This iPhone world time app lets you see the time of any country and city from almost all parts of the world.

This is a perfect time to know time of multiple locations in case you are trying to setup a meeting involving participants from various countries. You can add all those countries in the app, and see what will be time in those countries at time of the meeting. This saves you the hassle of separately checking time of each country / city.

The app provides you a nice and simple user interface to add time zone of different countries. Along with the current time of different countries, the app shows time of other countries according to the time selected in home country. For e.g., if I have selected the time as 10 PM in India, then the app will automatically show the time in corresponding countries and cities which you have selected and added in the list.

This iPhone world time app makes it easy for you to schedule your meetings, conference calls, and the like. If you use the free version of the app, you can easily know the timing of different countries according to the timing of home country. If you have paid version, you can also directly schedule meetings from within the app.

For e.g, if you want to schedule or plan a meeting with the members in different countries and cities, make a note of timings of different countries according to the timing in your home country. Now, start planning the meeting or any official or personal work according to the time data of different countries in front of you.

One of the bad part of the app which I found was the way of time tracking of different countries based on the home country. The app shows the time of different countries taking the current time of home country, or 1 hour increments of time of home country.

Free Download Manager To Manage Downloads: DownTango

Posted: 10 Oct 2012 09:00 AM PDT

DownTango is a free download manager for Windows which helps to manage downloads from the Internet. With DownTango you can download files and documents from any website, famous file-hosts are supported, and in a lot of ways DownTango is very similar to a very powerful download manager that’s very popular with the download community called jDownloader. It has some of the same features, only it comes in a completely different packaging.

Try out MP3 Downloader, Aktiv Download Manager, Fresh Download reviewed by us.

You can see what we said about different packaging by checking out the image above. Unlike other download managers, this free download manager doesn’t have a very complex interface. It consists of basically two parts, at the top we have the Add button and a giant search box, and down below on the left under the Add button, we have an option for Preferences which once opened up will hide away the much larger list of downloads area on the right (it’s empty on the image above).

Key Features of DownTango Free Download Manager:

Clipboard monitoring; it will wait in system tray for when you copy links.
Captcha solver, type captcas for downloads, just like jDownloader.
Limit download speeds and number of parallel downloads
Web browser integration for faster managing of download links
Accounts, for remote download tracking – not yet implemented

In a sense DownTango can be called a jDownloader alternative, since it offers a lot of the same features that this multi-function download manager offers, but the most important feature of them all is not incorporated, the IP changer for when you’re downloading from file hosts that have limitations on the number of files that you can download in a given period of time. This isn’t a deal breaker, and there’s still a lot of interesting features in this DownTango, free download manager.

How to Manage Download and Download files with DownTango:

Start either by turning on the clipboard monitoring in the preferences and copying the links to files that you would like to download, or by adding the files directly by clicking on the Add button in the top left corner of the applications.

The effect is gonna be the same, the add download window will pop up where you can enter the file name, if you want it to be renamed and of course where you’ll be able to confirm the download. Depending from where the files is being downloaded, you’ll probably have to wait, and type in the captcha codes once that the timer’s up.

Once that you solve and type in the captcha, download is gonna start in a few minutes or if you’re unlucky to have a slow connection, in a few hours you’ll be able to enjoy in the downloaded files and documents.

Conclusion

By opening up the preferences you’ll be able to change all of the previously mentioned features and more. For example activate the web interface for accessing the application from other place over the internet, didn’t work for us for some reason. Despite of that, DownTango has a lot to offer and if you’re looking for jDownloader alternative, this is what you’re looking for. Download and try this free download manager.
