Ajay V. Bhatt

Ajay Bhatt was born in India in 1957. Bhatt completed his graduation from the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda, India. He attained his master's degree from The City University of New York, USA. Soon after completing his master's, he joined Intel as a senior staff architect. 
 
In fact, USB technology didn't make money for anyone. It's because Intel, who owns all patents to the technology as the first backer of Bhatt's USB idea, decided to make it open and royalty-free from the beginning. USB is now considered the de facto standard for connecting different devices. Still, it was met with a lukewarm response when Bhatt first pitched the idea to tech companies, including Apple and Microsoft, in the early '90s.
 
It was basically creating a single connector that bypassed the need for a separate floppy disk or driver to install each application. But companies had an inherent fear of breaking the existing compatibility functions, Bhatt said, and only Intel, the company he was working for at the time, was bold enough to invest in his idea. Although Intel first backed the idea and began to build support for it into its chips, Apple first shipped a USB, compatible product for end-users, the iMac G3, in August 1998. Soon, Microsoft followed suit when it provided USB support for Windows 98's second edition, and the rest is history.
 
To share further, Bhatt holds about 30 US patents, and several others are in progress. He was nominated thrice in three years to participate in a Distinguished Lecture Series at various prominent Universities in the USA and Asia region. Bhatt received an Achievement in Excellence Award for his amazing participation and efforts in PCI Express specification development in 2002. Ajay became popular and recognizable after a TV commercial in 2009, which featured actor Sunil Narkar as Ajay Bhatt, who described him as an inventor of USB.

Shocking Information About Colombia

Colombia, officially the Republic of Colombia, is a country in the north of South America, with territories in North America. Colombia is bounded on the north by the Caribbean Sea, the northwest by Panama, the south by Ecuador and Peru, the east by Venezuela, the southeast by Brazil, and the west by the Pacific Ocean. Colombia's drug trade is worth US$10 billion. That's one-quarter as much as the country's legal exports. Cocaine can be purchased for about US$5 per gram in Colombia while in the U.S. it sells for at least US$100. More Colombians die every year from American tobacco than Americans die from Colombian cocaine. A Colombian woman was raised by monkeys after being kidnaped and abandoned in the jungle as a child. Jamaica, Colombia and St Lucia are the only countries where a woman is more likely to be a boss than a man.

Amazing Information About Uranus

Uranus is an Ice Giant planet and nearly four times larger than Earth. Uranus has 27 known moons, most of which are named after literary characters. Like Saturn, Jupiter and Neptune, Uranus is a ringed planet. The summer in Uranus is 42 years long. Uranus has the coldest planetary atmosphere in the Solar System, with a minimum temperature of -371.56 °F (-224 °C). Uranus' axis of rotation is tilted sideways, so its north and south poles lie where most other planets have their equators. 63 Earths can fit inside Uranus. Uranus is the third-largest planet in the Solar System. Uranus orbits the Sun at a distance of about 2.8 billion km (1.7 billion mi) and completes one orbit every 84 years. Uranus was the first planet discovered with a telescope. The wind speeds on Uranuscan reach 560 mph (900 km/h). Uranus rotates sideways and "rolls" around the sun rather than "spinning" like the other planets. Neptune was mathematically predicted before it was directly observed,
