This article is about web sites you can go on your computer while working which relieves stress. The websites are Youtube time Machine, YouSwear, Unsuck It, Unhear it, and the things you would have said. These sites are also for entertainment if you are bored. Youtube time machine takes you back to the popular videos that were played during a specific year. YouSwear is a site where you can search up swear words in different languages since you are not allowed to swear during work. Unsuck it is a site which defines some of the business terms that you might not understand. Unhear it is a site that plays a bunch of random songs to help you get an annoying song in your head, and the things you would have said is a site that lets you express what you wished you have said to someone.

This article was written for the parents of young children. I thought that what they were advertising was very cool and practical. This new table is just the right size for young children and it's much more durable than a regular tablet If it were to be dropped on the floor not much harm would be done. The kids growing up in this time period are surrounded by technology and they'll want one of their own. Parents are able to monitor the websites their child goes on and their child can learn on it by playing educational games. I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of these in the near future.

Turns out storing private information with no encryption is a bad idea. In other news, researchers today have discovered that the sky is in fact, blue.

The new iPad launch (the iPad 3 that's not been called the iPad 3) kicked off at 10am PT/6pm GMT on Wednesday 7 March, and our Hands on: iPad 3 review is now up.

Though Internet Explorer is still reigning as the most used browser. There is one other, though, that may challenge it's reign: Chrome. Right now, Chrome and Firefox are battling for the number two spot. For the longest time, Firefox held that place; now - times they-are-a-changin'. Chrome's usage has grown by 50%, and is expected to take over second place by Christmas time. Not only that, but Internet Explorer is also expected to fall sometime soon, though it is hard to say specifically. Chrome is doing well, for the reason specifically that it is surpassing all, others, and a fan favorite, so to speak.

Yes, very true indeed!!

okay i have finally gotten to write a description about this :).. anyway... so basically what this article is about is secure internet web servers that use SSL encryption. what this does is make it very hard for hackers, malware, spyware, and all other bad kinds of "wares" out of your computer making it virus free and it doesn't allow ip hackers to watch what you are doing on the internet. The reason for this is mainly to protect bank account numbers, login id's, passwords, credit card information, and even personal information that, if not protected can get your identity stolen. Two big issues that website hosts do not agree with is that SSL (HTTPS secure connection) costs money. It is not that easy to keep a secure server blocking out hundreds of thousands of malware virus', phishing programs, and spyware, while at the same time keeping it free. Also another big problem with this is that it slows down the server. If there are a limited amount of people going on your website (meaning barely into the hundred hits) than you shouldnt have this problem, but for big websites like facebook,that have millions of hits per day, this is a big deal because they want to keep themselves on top of speed and one of the most popular social networking websites out there. basically, to sum everything up, HTTPS servers cost too much money, some websites dont even need them, and they slow down the servers a significant amount.

Mozilla is testing a computer tablet that runs Firefox. This tablet is slightly bigger that the ones that are out right now, but it helps bring elements to the screen, such as tabs, for example. This tablet might be ideal to people who are used to the computer layout and bigger screens and menu bars at the top o f the internet screen.

Google is taking one step forward in personal protection with their recently added feature. By automatically adding an "s" to http at the begining of the URL, they are encrypting the website and protecting its viewers from being seen by random people snooping around their searches, by making it more difficult to do so. This feature will soon be an available setting for Firefox, Chrome, Chromium, and Internet Explorer servers. Firefox users can install HTTPS Everywhere extention. Chrome and Chromium users can right click on the URL bar and add an "s" to the end of the "http". Internet Explorer users can add the setting in IE add-ons page.

Everyone has used google at one point in their lives. Well, a new revolution of google is on its way. When we google something have you noticed besides the 'www.' there is an 'http://'. This is means that your search worked but it isn't encrypted. This means that people can see what you're searching. With a new google search engine under development, the search engine revolution will advance. Instead of having to look for the website or whatever you're searching for, which sometimes makes me want to pry my eyes out of my head, the new google plans to take you directly to the website you searched for. What about 'http://' or whatever you ask? Another feature the new google will have is using the 'https://' system. The 's' at the end of the 'http' means 'secured', so basically no one can see what you're searching besides google itself. In other, more technical words, your data is encrypted. Looking forward to the new future of google!

It's obvious that Apple is extremely successful. According to wired.com, Apple passed Microsoft as the world's largest tech company, and that was only in may of 2010. Its clear that other companies are trying to find ways to stand out, against Apple who dominates the computer market. So what does Intel do? Spend $300 million on Macbook Air knock offs.

As most of us know there is a constant war going on between mac & PC but now it seems as thought one of the contenders have given up. Many PC companies have now begun just making Mac clones! Apple is the leader in technological advances and PC's are struggling to keep up. This Drives the producers to try and follow the leader to see if they can capture the same technology at a PC's price.

this story starts off with a very simple and good analogy (if thats what you call them). one of the most import rules in software is to eat your own dog food. basically this means if you have confidence in your product even you, the creator, will use it. this isnt exactly how google executives act towards google+. out of 18 execs, 2 are active users with an average of 100 posts, 5 have posted several times, and the other 11 either dont HAVE AN ACCOUNT or have NEVER POSTED. that is all :)

At an event in New Delhi's Taj Mahal hotel today, Microsoft finally announced that it is launching its smartphone operating system in India, with a number of devices running Windows Phone 7.5 Mango. Bhaskar Pramanik, the company's Indian chairman, announced that the first device to arrive in India will be the HTC Radar.

Google is trying to introduce a new programming language to the 14 ones that already exist, they say that they are trying to compete with java and are a bit unsure of themselves. They say that this programming language will not replace java and java will be will be the cornerstone of of the web today and will be for a long long time.

Link shortening service Bit.ly just announced the launch of its beta search platform and "reputation monitoring" service for its paying Enterprise customers.

These are just two different views of how Apple and Google deal with issues in their OS' and how they tend to fix them by gathering info from either users or looking it over themselves.

If you send anything to people that could be illegal through cloud email, you might have an encounter with something called cops. Yes, the law enforcement have access to your cloud emails to help them with cases or anything else, beware.

Adobe flash turns out to be a easy to get hacked file. There are ways to access  your microphone or webcam without proper prevention. Adobe has updated their software and it should be prevented.

hola signor

hi

Researchers have released an attack tool that tests their websites to when they connect through secure connections, not so secure now huh? They call it "The Hacker Choice"

Instrapaper lets you save online articles to your Instrapaper account and sync them to various devises, of which you can read them later. (mobile diigo?) Recently, the iPhone/iPad app got a 'humongaulous' update that touches and improves every way you interact with the app. "Navigation, reading experience, Search, Browsing-all tweaked for the more gooder."  At it's current priced however, i would not download this app.

Aren't you always annoyed by your parents because they ask you when to come home from the mall, or tell you the specific time when you have to go home? Well, to me that's annoying. Luckily, there's an app called "ImOK." This app works when parents sign up for an account and send a code to other members of the family. After this the other member of the family then signs up into the network of their phones. Teens check-in to the app for points, which plot their location on the map. While the adolescents check-in and add more information every time, they receive in return for their points is up to the parents. teens have a wishlist which they can suggest rewards in return of their points. Parents can either accept their ideas or add their own which both members can agree on. I believe that this app is a benefit on parents and their children because they both get something in return. The parents get their teen's trust, loyalty, and less stress, while the teen earns allowance.
