Now insert emojis
in Google Docs
as you type
New Delhi : Google has
allowed users to insert emojis
while writing in Google
Docs, as they will not need to
pull up emoji icons from
other places anymore into
their documents.
Google recently added
emoji reactions to Docs, and
now the users can add them
in actual documents.The feature
supports the most recent
emoji.
"Building upon the recently
announced emoji reaction
feature, you can now express
yourself in a new way by
searching for and inserting
emojis directly inline with
your text in Google Docs,"
said the company.
The emoji tool is available
to all Google Workspace customers,
as well as legacy G
Suite Basic and Business
customers, along with users
with personal Google
accounts. There is no admin
control for this feature. To
search for and add emojis
directly inline with text in
Docs, Google has simple
steps to follow.
The simple way is to just
type "@ (emoji name)," and
typing "@emoji" will pull up
a searchable emoji picker,
like the one on your smartphone.
The company said the new
feature has been rolled out
for some users today and will
reach everyone by the end of
September. The new system
gives users several ways to
get at emoji, and Google has
listed those on its website.
India to see 45-50 mn
EVs on road by 2030,
charging top concern
New Delhi : India's e-
mobility journey is on a fast
track, with an estimated 45-50
million electric vehicles (EVs)
on road by 2030, a new report
said on Tuesday.
As the EV ecosystem
matures at a rapid pace, a critical
facilitator of EV adoption
is ready availability of slow
and fast chargers ensuring easy
access to efficient and costeffective
charging, according
to a KPMG in India report.
"Development of a robust
charging network has gone
hand-in-hand with accelerated
EV adoption across the world,
and we believe a similar trend
is expected to play out in India," said Rohan
Rao, Partner, M&A Consulting, KPMG in
India. Charging technologies will vary by different
vehicle segments and public and private
charging solutions will be deployed to serve
different customer segments and use cases,
according to the report. "2Ws and 3Ws are
best suited for AC slow charging. Battery
swapping is likely to be the more prevalent
model for use cases requiring quick charging
turnaround," it added. The Indian market is
likely to have a dense network of AC private
and public chargers and DC chargers to be
restricted to buses and few use cases for 4Ws
and LCVs.
According to the report, expectations from
home/workplace charging are likely to be different
from destination charging or on the go
charging which will differ from fleet charging.
"Strategic partnerships for real estate and
interoperability among CPOs/ service
providers are crucial to strengthen customer
proposition," the findings showed. "With an
estimated 50 million EVs on Indian roads by
2030, the potential opportunity for a pure play
charging business is enormous, Rao added.
Wild elephant enters Assam's Tezpur town, goes on rampage
Guwahati : Panic spread
Assam's Tezpur town on Saturday
when a wild elephant entered the
town after crossing the Brahmaputra
river and went on a rampage, damaging
a few vehicles parked on the
road, officials said on Tuesday.
Sonitpur district Superintendent
of Police, Susanta Biswa Sarma told
IANS that the elephant entered at
around 7.30 p.m.
"As it came into the middle of the
town all of a sudden, people got
panicked. However, the elephant
could not cause much
damage to property. A
few vehicles were damaged
by it," he said.
Sarma said that
Sonitpur district has
dense forests in many
places and hence whether
the elephant came all the
way from Kaziranga
National Park or any
other place could not be
ascertained.
"The forest officials took the necessary
action and the elephant finally
went back to the jungle," he
added. Divisional Forest Officer
Ramesh Gogoi said that these types
of incidents happen in Tezpur town
once or twice every year.
Asked about where the wild elephant
came from, he said: "This
cannot be said precisely. But since
Kaziranga is at a good distance from
Tezpur, it is possible that the elephant
came from some nearby forest."
According to the forest officials,
the elephant entered a house in
the Chanmari area of the town in
search of food. It then went to a park
where a large number of people
gathered to catch glimpse of the animal.
While crossing a local bus
stand, the elephant damaged a car
and a few two-wheelers that were
parked roadside. Meanwhile, the
scenes of the wild elephant on a
rampage in the town went viral on
social media.
