The Launcher 7 requires improvements in their features. Like they should give their own live widgets. Just as Windows Phone 7 has. It drain my battery so fast. So this also need to be fixed.

Download

You can download Launcher 7 from Android Market. They also have ad free version, for that you need to give donation to them.

Update: Version 1.1.1 did a great job. No more battery consumption. I updated from 1.x.26 to 1.1. And good battery management.

So it seems issue is with wireless router. And I used to get error in my browser that DNS named not resolved.

Error 105 (net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED): Unable to resolve the server’s DNS address.

The admin panel of my PTCL Broadband is on 192.168.1.1 and for TP-Link I set to 192.168.2.8. I replaced the primary and secondary PTCL DNS with Google Public DNS. And it works (Primary: 8.8.8.8 and Secondary 8.8.4.4).

Google Public DNS is a free, global Domain Name System resolution service, that we can use as an alternative to PTCL DNS. I am observing quality of Internet speed now.

You can also use OpenDNS addresses other than Google. Primary: 208.67.222.222 Secondary: 208.67.222.220. I will give try to OpenDNS too.

Wrap your IFrame code with a div with an ID

<div id="likebox-frame">
  <iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden; width: 330px; height: 289px;" src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=<the_id_of_fb_page>&width=330&connections=10&stream=false&header=false&height=280" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="320" height="240">
</ifram>
</div>

CSS classes for above Div and IFrame

#likebox-frame{
  width:330px;
  height: 260px;
  overflow: hidden;
  position:relative;
}
#likebox-frame iframe{
  overflow:hidden;
  position:relative;
  left:-5px;
  top:-1px;
}

You can adjust the width and height according the space where you want to place the box. What idea I have used, I have hide the border of like box under the styles of the div. There could be other approaches too. But I clicked on this. It’s simple.

Here is my Facebook page like box.

There is a question here. If I design my system in an object oriented way, why I need to store data in a relational database. You design your data model and then you need the overhead of some ORM to store your “objects” in the table. ORM libraries carries a cost. The library that I am using run extensive reflection calls and annotation parsing to compose SQL queries from my data model. It’s superb. Creates a lot of ease for me in handling with database. But it’s a layer itself and has its own cost in terms of performance.

Working in the systems tightly designed to work with RDBMS has made it difficult for me to think my data model independent of any database where I am not going to use joins and a lot of tables etc. I am talking about NoSQL databases. I believe now its a controversy to design your object oriented system and gluing with a relational database. I just want to store my data. Why I need to solve the puzzles of normalization, indexes and other totally DBA related stuff. Where as I am just a web programmer. I just want the simplification of my application data storage. For this I need to change my perspective of designing the system from RDBMS to NoSQL. It’s challenging.

Because I am a JDBC addict.
