To do this on a regular UltraChart chart layout is not a difficult thing but when we consider the composite charts it seems to be not supported. Well, this is not true. Actually we use the same properties to do it excepting that for the composite chart those properties are not shown by IntelliSense. You can find here a possible reason for this. In my example I will consider a UltraChart in

Zumobi.com - Stop Surfing - Start ZoomingWhat it doesLaunched only last week, Zumobi is a free web app for mobiles that aims to get all the interesting content users need and ensure quick accessibility to it. The app gets downloaded to your phone like a grid with room for 16 bookmarks, where users can put whatever they like or comes in handy out of the list provided by Zumobi, and which presently include access to a list of 80+ mobile apps like flickr, weather channel and moconews. Zumobi encourages users to share tiles (jargon for bookmarks) as a way to make the app grow, because since the app is free to download the site generates revenue with ads, and thus larger audiences mean larger revenues. In order to download it to your phone (the app supports both touchscreens and keypads) you have to register to the site and create your profile. It will then be downloaded to the phone or pc and you can transfer it.In their own words"Zumobi lets you access and share web-based content on

Blogging Zoom is a new free service made by bloggers for bloggers. With it, you can submit your own posts that will “zoomed” or voted to the top by the other bloggers. I decided to wait and see some results before posting. Is it another Digg, Technorati type service? Yes and No. The basic ideal is the same but the main difference is that it’s only for quality bloggers. So, you won’t see any non-blog posts or spam blogs in it. Plus, you can submit you own post unlike Digg. The SEO angle When you submit a post, you will have to write a small teaser first and a second longer one. It’s here that they come in.

Microsoft Corp. recently launched an independent company with a peculiar name; "ZenZui" provides technologies that use a Zooming User Interface for mobile devices that mobile device operators, marketers and consumers can utilize.  The technology seems similar to some of the functionalities found on the iPhone (See Video). ZenZui’s high-frame rate Zooming User Interface employs up to 36 individual “tiles” that are selected and customized by users to reflect their interests and lifestyle with relevant content, interactive communications and fresh data.  From the connected communities of social networks and the immediacy of pop culture to the have-to-know sports and weather info, this modular tile interface lets users sync, surf, and share digital content quickly, easily and in a distinctly new way.The technology is patented by Microsoft, was initially developed by the Microsoft Research lab in Redmond, Wash. Microsoft’s IP Ventures helps startu
