Photos: never lose a photo again

Back in Google I/O 2015 Google launched a new service. A service which would change my life! The service was a new gallery app simply called photos. An app which you all are now familiar with, it is an app which allows you to view, backup and organise all your photos and videos!
In this article, I am going to sort of giving you an overview on how to use and move to Google photos and why to use photos. So that you can also never run out of storage while snapping photos.
MOVING TO GOOGLE PHOTOS
Few tasks feel as daunting as transferring your entire photo library from one service to another. And few things feel worse than accidentally losing images or videos that you can’t replace. So as great as Google Photos might be, switching to it won’t be a small undertaking for everyone. The best and easiest way for me would be to use your pc. Copy all your photos onto your pc, then download a simple app called backup and sync on your PC or MAC. And just like that, you can upload all your photos to the google photos service!
Now that you have downloaded and set up the app you will face a question about the quality of the photos you want to upload. Uploading photos in their original quality are going to cost you precious storage. While opting for the high-quality option, will give you unlimited storage for your photos for the price of 0.
THE HELPFUL, AUTOMATIC ASSISTANT
Google has an assistant tab built into the app. This should really help out beginners, by sorting out images, helping you to set which folders to back up and free storage by deleting photos which have already been backed up from your device!
Then there is search
We all know Google collects our data. That data has been used to proper use in the app. The search feature is deadly accurate. Never have I required to type twice to get to the photo I was looking for.And the search results have only gotten better with time.
It even lets you create GIFs
Ever seen a Samsung Galaxy advertisement where they show how their phones can create gifs? Well, they are telling you lies! You can easily create gifs by stitching multiple photos from your library. Pro tip: use the burst mode on your camera app for the best result.
The miscellaneous
It even lets you create movies, collages and albums. It even makes them automatically! If that was not enough, it lets you share your creations with extreme control over who gets to do what with your photos. It lets you archive the photos which you want to hide and even lets you saturate the sky with the built-in photo editor.
All in all
Google Photos is a solid service by Google and is miles ahead of the competition and warrants your attention. It is a must-have!

King Arhur the legend of misfortune !

King Arthur the legend of the sword: Before it was slaughtered by the critics', this was supposed to be an origin story for our hero Arthur portrayed brilliantly by Charlie Hunnam and is directed by the Sherlock Holmes Director Guy Richie. Richie tries his best to tell the story which has been told by several others before him in a new and interesting way. To his credit, he even achieves that to some extent. The movie tells the story of Arthur son of Uther, who is raised in a brothel and has grown up to be a thug of some sorts. Later on, he discovers he is the true king. A reality which he is not willing to admit. The movie feels unusually grounded, even though it is filled with mages and giant Elephant and an Octopus lady. Guy Richie gives the viewer reason to care for our protagonist and even creates a good antagonist in Jude Law. Jude Law plays the uncle of Arthur and the killer of his father. The build-up to the big fight is gripping and the supporting cast is stellar.

KG please don't make me go through this again F!

Hello readers, I have been down and out for what? A year maybe. But, fear not I am back again and will again claim to publish new blogs frequently! So, I for some reason decided to try a film of the Kannnada language. That film was called KGF. The film is about a rebel who is born into poverty with only his mother (whom he loses early in the movie.). The movie is the first part of the two parted series. The sequel will release sometime I don’t know when. Now, let’s talk about the movie. The film fails to live up to the hype big time! The pressure from the society is what drove me into watching this “masterpiece”, only to find the same old Indian movie formula baked again with different actors. The story has been told several time, it is by no means new. Furthermore, the direction is poor and jarring at best. The action scenes are age old, hero making goons float with one punch, the acting is loud and tone deaf. The side characters have no layer, no motive. The villain is t
