The vuvuzela button has been installed by the video sharing website and this button will play a distinctive buzzing soundtrack over its videos. This button is in the shape of a football on the bottom right hand corner below the video screen.

From in.news.yahoo.com:

However, many technology blogs have condemned the video sharing website’s popularising move, which almost fades out the original sound of the clips, reports The Telegraph.

YouTube always has had a way with pranks,” Tech Crunch’s Jason Kincaid wrote in his blog.

“Clicking it will activate an endless, incredibly annoying sound that sounds vaguely like a swarm of insects,” he added.

“As if we haven’t been hearing the buzzing sound of vuvuzelas enough in the last couple of days,” Stan Schroeder wrote on social media blog Mashable.

“If you haven’t been following the football World Cup and you’re not familiar with the term, vuvuzela is a plastic horn that produces a loud monotone which starts getting on your nerves in about five seconds,” he added.

When a viewer will click on the vuvuzela button, he will hear sounds vaguely resembling a swarm of insects.

Credit cards losing to debit cardsDebit cards are getting more popular these days when compared to credit cards, thanks to more point of sale terminals (POS) at merchant establishments showing friendliness to debit cards.

Moreover, debit cards are also emerging as preferred transaction tools for facilitating e-commerce payments.

According to B Amrish Rau, V-P and country head, First Data Corporation, which has a joint venture with ICICI Bank for point of sales terminals, “Consumers are warming up to using debit cards at merchant location as they perceive it to be a more secured and a hassle-free way of transaction. Moreover, increasingly, it is also used for settling e-commerce transactions.”

E-commerce transactions have been growing by over 30% annually, with a lot of travel bookings shifting online. Going ahead, a lot transactions for insurance premium payments and mutual fund investments are expected to be big avenues for e-commerce where debit card usage is expected to pick up sharply, he added.

Banks on their part have also been coming out with attractive offers on debit card issued by them by giving a cash back offer on purchases at certain places and discounts at retail outlets, which is also making debit card an attractive payment option. Interestingly, most banks started actively focusing on this business when facing problems of recovery in their credit card business, post the 2008 sub-prime crisis.

According Maitri Kumar, head of marketing, HSBC India, “We focused on debit cards as we observed that a customer using a debit card actively is likely to have a deeper relationship with the bank. And, to engage the customer, we made them offers and ran usage campaigns which have worked well. We have an equal focus on both credit and debit cards as they meet different customer needs.

In a head-to-head comparison, debit cards are always superior to credit cards because hey give purchasing convenience and access to ready cash.

Get close to success and beat competitionIf you want to settle for nothing but success and perfection at the workplace, these inspiring quotes for staying close to success at the workplace will help you beat the competition in no time.

I’ve spent most of my life walking under that hovering cloud, jealousy, whose acid raindrops blurred my vision and burned holes in my heart.  Once I learned to use the umbrella of confidence, the skies cleared up for me and the sunshine called joy became my faithful companion. – Astrid Alauda

Our ordinary mind always tries to persuade us that we are nothing but acorns and that our greatest happiness will be to become bigger, fatter, shinier acorns; but that is of interest only to pigs.  Our faith gives us knowledge of something better: that we can become oak trees. – E.F. Schumacher

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.  It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?  Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.  We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. – Marianne Williamson

The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, peculiar to myself and to a few other solitary men, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence. – Thomas Wolfe

If Columbus had turned back, no one would have blamed him. Of course, no one would have remembered him either. – Unknown
