The Launch of DreamingKnights.com : My First Step in Entrepreneurship





After thinking about various plans of starting a startup, I just thought of starting a Web Designing and Development company first, as it will give a great exposure, help to build an awesome team, and will give me some experience about how businesses are run. Thinking about this, I recently started DreamingKnights.com (www.dreamingknights.com) with a friend. Yesterday, I had launched its website too :)

About the launching of website, the 5 days of continuous hard work along with mild fever which stayed for 2 days, will be a memorable milestone for me, as it made me step into the business world. It will be an enjoyable (i'm being positive :P ) thing to go to college for about 11hours, and then work on this business of ours. Excitement and the will to do something different and unique in life is what keeps me happy with this venture of ours.

I have even made some future plans for our DreamingKnights.com. Instead of Web development and designing, SEO and all other related services, DreamingKnights.com can also launch its own web products! To start with, simply, this could be the engine behind a startup company launched by team (or Knights) DreamingKnights.com and I can bet, it will be an awesome startup!!! Because the team will be a talented one, and so will be the product.! Mobile apps, web based startups like a social network or something useful, and many other options can be out from DreamingKnights.com Labs in future. If any Web Developer/ Web Designer / Graphics Designer out there is reading this post and you're interested in joining a team which wants to change the WWW, we should definitely talk soon!! :)

Troubleshoot ADT Plugin Installation in Eclipse IDE for Android App / Application Development

I was just setting up my Windows 7 32-bit computer for developing android apps for the first time today and  successfully installed SDK for Android for Windows from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

The second step was to install ADT plug-in for Eclipse IDE which makes it really easier to develop apps in Eclipse. I was using Eclipse Galileo. Now while performing this step, I was encountering some errors like this:
"Can not complete the install because one or more required items could not be found."

After googling a bit, I found out that I need to install Google Plug-in for Eclipse Galileo before I can install the ADT plug-in for Android.

But again, Google plug-in could not be installed due to the same error. So I found out that I need to install another Software in Eclipse called "WST Server Adapters" and only after that Google plugins and ADT plugin can be installed.

And now, installation of Android has been successful.

After installing SDK, perform these steps to install WST Server Adapters in Eclipse Galileo:


  • In Eclipse under Help, select Install New Software.
  • In "Work with", select the option mentioning Galileo and under it go to Web services. There you can find "WST Server Adaptors". 
  • Choose “WST Server Adapters”, download and install it.
  • Restart Eclipse.

Install Google plugin for Eclipse Galileo using this link: https://developers.google.com/eclipse/docs/install-eclipse-3.5?hl=sv-SE


After this, install ADT plug-in using the instructions on Android's official page nad you'll be done.

Happy Android Development! :)
