Differences of Google Nexus One and Apple iPhone

Which should I buy Google Nexus One or Apple iPhone ? This is a common question to the readers. Below I share some of my experiences on Nexus One vs. iPhone after using both of them for the past few days. I feels iPhone's back swipe much more intuitive than pressing the back icon of Nexus One Do you want to know the biggest difference of Nexus One vs. iPhone ? I need a manual to use Nexus One but with iPhone I never did and I am a hardcore techie. My personal experience is that with UI & usability improvements Nexus One can challenge iPhone, however it is not there yet. Sometimes small things make the biggest difference. Nexus One should focus more resources on making it more intuitive. Even the way to slide to unlock is not clear unlike iPhone.

Google hiring Goats: Baaa

Whack! You could see 200 goats chomping away the "grassy goodness" in Mountain View headquarters. Is the search-engine czar considering a new venture in business of chèvre. Google has hired hundreds of goats from California Grazing for a week - does it make any sense? Why would they do so, given their lucrative world-wide business? Well, Googleplex has designed a bats in the belfry solution for the overgrown field - goats…lol. It's not as ludicrous as it sounds. A feasibility study suggests: cost of bringing goats is comparable to hiring lawn mowers for the same job. More than this, the green benefits of hiring goats are obvious - cutting out on the mower emission; restoring plan species; fertilize while grazing; and reduce noise pollution. Google is out on honest effort to reduce the carbon footprint, perhaps the men in Mountain View are conscious of Albert "Al" Gore's An Inconvenient Truth (Oscar winning documentary on Earth's climate crisis). ...

Google CEO Schmidt Says 'high quality journalism will triumph'

The newspaper business has been absolutely decimated over the past decade as many news organizations adapted slowly to the changes brought forth by the Internet. But one of the men partly responsible for helping to usher in the new era of digital media (and advertising) is hopeful about the future of news. And he actually believes companies can make money off it. Google CEO Eric Schmidt -- speaking at the American Society of News Editors annual meeting in Washington D.C. -- reportedly said that high-quality journalism will prevail. Politico's Jake Sherman has a detailed report on Schmidt's remarks, including the high-tech executive's advice for making money off content on the Web. As has become a common refrain in the news media business, Schmidt also noted that there's more of a business model problem than a news problem facing the industry.

Sebuah Pelajaran Tentang Teknologi Ponsel

Bagaimana ponsel bekerja adalah menarik, tapi agak rumit untuk menjelaskan. Untuk membantu Anda, saya akan menjelaskan apa yang terjadi bila Anda mengambil telepon Anda dan membuat panggilan telepon. Jadi Anda punya telepon Anda di tangan Anda. Saya yakin Anda tahu bahwa bar sinyal pada layar menunjukkan seberapa baik sinyal telepon Anda dapatkan. Apakah yang menentukan ini adalah seberapa dekat Anda dengan stasiun pangkalan - yang adalah, antena yang terhubung ke jaringan, kabel telepon yang sebenarnya. stasiun Base merupakan inti dari sebuah jaringan telepon selular, dan ada banyak dari mereka. Di kota, mereka dapat sesedikit seperempat mil terpisah, dan bahkan jauh di pedesaan cenderung terjadi satu setiap lima mil atau lebih. Anda tidak cenderung melihat mereka, karena mereka pandai menyamar - sering di menara gereja, kadang-kadang bahkan menyamar sebagai pohon - tetapi mereka yang benar-benar di mana-mana.

Top Ten Largest Deserts

10. Kara-Kum Desert, Uzbekistan / Turkmenistan The Karakum Desert, also spelled Kara-Kum and Gara Gum is a desert in Central Asia. It occupies about 70 percent, or 350,000 km², of the area of Turkmenistan. Covering much of present day Turkmenistan, the Karakum Desert lies east of the Caspian Sea, with the Aral Sea to the north and the Amu Darya river and the Kyzyl Kum desert to the northeast. In modern times, with the shrinking of the Aral Sea, the extended “Aral Karakum” has appeared on the former seabed, with an estimated area of 15,440 sq. The sands of the Aral Karakum are made up of a salt-marsh consisting of finely-dispersed evaporites and remnants of alkaline mineral deposits, washed into the basin from irrigated fields. The dusts blown on a powerful east-west airstream carry pesticide residues that have been found in the blood of penguins in Antarctica.

Serious Java Flaws Unearthed

All current versions of Windows are prone to external attack due to a flaw within the Java Web Start Framework. Two security researchers made this announcement yesterday about the flaw. The flaw could lead into very simple Web attacks, to fatal attack on the system. Researchers Tavis Ormandy and Ruben Santamartamade separate statements on this. You can find Travis's one over here and Santamarta's one over here. If you send the information from the command line, Java Web Start doesn't validate it. That enables the attackers to send especially HTML tags from a Web page. All versions of Java SE 6 update 10 for Microsoft Windows are vulnerable to this attack. If you disable the plugin, it doesn't necessarily mean that you will be able to avoid the attack because the toolkit can be installed independently.
