But Live Kashmir has more features than any other social networking site.” The website contains rich features likemarket place, music section, poll, quiz, blog and forum. “In my website,users can go to the market section and have their items sold online. Similarly, other features offer excitingexperience,” Asif said. “I developed the site using scripting language from server side and from client I took help of java script, HTML and CSS,” he said. ”The website has been patented at the Digital Millennium Copyright Act,” he added. Asif is currently working on an android chatmessenger for Live Kashmir. “I have a dreamto work withGoogle,” he said, smiling. Asif has also received acknowledgementfrom world’s renowned software makers, Adobe company, and figures among the list of people “who have responsibly disclosed vulnerabilitiesin an Adobe desktop product.” Earlier, Asif developed an android application, Droid Explorer, which was hosted by Google Play.
