Enable Video Calling in Whatsapp

WhatsApp video calling has been officially launched and the feature is now rolling out to users on Android, iPhone,and WhatsApp. The WhatsApp video calling feature was recently introduced in the beta builds of WhatsApp for Android and Windows Mobile. If you can't wait for the video calling feature to show up on your Android phone, here's how you can get started with it right away.
If you are already running the latest WhatsApp beta - or if the video calling feature is available to you after launch - it's pretty simply to start a video call with another WhatsApp user. Here's how to make a video call within WhatsApp:
  • Open WhatsApp (of course!)
  • Go to the Contacts tab
  • Find and tap the contact you want to initiate a WhatsApp video call with
  • Tap on the phone icon towards the top of the screen
  • From the popup choose Video call
That's it - you've just made your first WhatsApp video call!
Note that for WhatsApp video calling to work, both parties should be running a WhatsApp build that supports the feature. WhatsApp may also prompt you for feedback once the video call is over.
If you are already running the latest WhatsApp version, and you still don't see the video calling feature, there's a way to get it faster. To enable video calling feature in your WhatsApp instance, you will have to sign up for the WhatsApp beta program. Follow these steps to sign up for the WhatsApp beta program and enable WhatsApp video calling on Android:
  • Open Google Play and search for WhatsApp
  • Open WhatsApp's Google Play listing
  • Scroll dow towards the bottom of the page
  • In the section that says Become a beta tester tap on I'M IN
  • Confirm on the next screen and wait for a few minutes
  • Come back to WhatsApp listing page on Google Play
  • You should see an option to Update WhatsApp to beta version
  • Update the app
Congratulations, you are now running the latest WhatsApp beta for Android. This comes with support for WhatsApp video calls and other new features - to make your first WhatsApp video call, follow the steps mentioned earlier.

The Silent Tears

the door slammed, pain is about to come, another tattoo of bruises is now to stain. his fist her face, his kick her abdomen, his abuse her ears. scared and alone she could only weep, tells  her secrets to pillows while asleep. even though she accepted him, loved him to infinite. Because society taught her- to cage herself and call that protection, to survive the violence and call that acceptance. to accept what he gave and call that love. to spread her legs but not her wings. #stopwomanviolence

Atrophy

In the midst of flowers, Stands its heir. Trading them for few bucks, Desolated and detached. Festive week, season of love. Essence of romance all over, There she lies adorning someone's love with red roses. adding spark to people's love, instead keeping her own in dark. There she lies Lost and lonely, Flowers be her only companion. whose petals she holds and essence she breaths. she wants to blossom again, But she fears. She fears to be tugged again. There she lies like a flower, beautiful & adorable. But lifeless. Like a flower which is stepped, Worthy not enough to be picked.

So Basu finally decided to answer and end this. He started typing. "Niyati, when I see relationships scattered around, I get scared. I fear that I might breakdown if I become the victim of it. I have seen years of relationship end in a blink of an eye.Yes, I agree it does not happen to everyone. But I fear that I might be the one. ...
