Clean the Air Filter of your AC (Air Conditioner)
Living in the middle of the desert means much more dust than other parts of the world. Due to some sheer laziness I didn’t check the air filters of LG split ACs of my apartment for last 6 months, finally when I checked them yesterday, they were in following condition:
After washing them from pressure water, they came back to their original look which is:
The AC became very quite after this cleaning. According to Saudi Electricity Company (SEC), cleaning air filters of ACs can save up to 6% of electricity bills. The manual of my AC stated to clean the filters once in every 2 weeks. To not miss that again I have set a recurring reminder on my mobile.

Xiaomi Smartphones
Xiaomi may not be the biggest smartphone company in China, but it’s probably the fastest-growing. And if you haven’t yet heard of it, you will soon. Xiaomi sold 7.19 million handsets in 2012, and expects to sell double that number this year. Fifteen million. Not bad for a company that didn’t sell its first smartphone until summer of 2011 — particularly in a market as competitive as China’s.

LinkedIn v2.2 for BlackBerry OS smartphones brings BBM integration and company pages
Although I still struggle to see the draw in using LinkedIn, millions of people everyday log on to the site. If you're among them and using your BlackBerry to access the services, you'll be pleased to know a new LinkedIn is now available for BlackBerry OS smartphones. While it's just a small jump into v2.2, it's a pretty important update especially if you like to pay attention to a lot of company pages. The ability to follow those pages has finally been added and to go along with it, there is also BBM integration which will update your BBM status with your LinkedIn updates, if you do so wish. Again, this update is only for BlackBerry OS smartphones and you'll find the link below. More info / Download LinkedIn v2.2
