flexible phone - 0 views

  •  
    well they just keep coming out with surprises don't they, Nokia just came out with a prototype of another smartphone, it is like any other smartphone, except that this one is flexible, how are they supposed to make a phone out of rubber or plastic or something. this may make it harder to break, but i wouldn't care about that, if I could I would just buy it to freak people out.

Google opens real time analytic beta, but releases 500 email addresses - 1 views

  •  
    Google has released analytic beta, and all of the tools that come with it to hundreds more people. but in the process, spills all of those email addresses to everyone who received the beta, so when you have about 500 more people in the "to" when sending an email, then it happened to you. this is not good, because then people can send anyone all kinds of SPAM.

some more hi tech glasses - 1 views

  •  
    these glasses may be big and attached to a pack which must be carried with you, but it is pretty cool. these glasses may not look like much, but when you where them and turn them on, it displays a projection screen about 1 meter away from your eyes. like what you always see in spy movies or something. the little packs can attach to your belt, and displays it like a screen, it is meant for workers so that they can view the manual when working on something without climbing down to get it. NEC will start shipping these out on Dec 26(the day after Christmas) and I think that it will prove to be very useful in every day situations. it is priced at 400,000 yen or $5,200, but the software is at 1.9 million yen or $25,000

Adobe, makes new CSS tools - 0 views

  •  
    Adobe has made a new set of CSS tools, like CSS shaders, or CSS regions. this is so that CSS can now have better quality with what they are doing, apparently, it can make things on the screen be 3D, which is so awesome, it adds a cinematic feel to it. although we are not going to go anywhere near this in class, it is still cool, there's a video that shows what it looks like.

tiny camra - 0 views

  •  
    Lytro came out with a new camera which is 4.4 inches long and 8 oz in length, it has a touch screen, and 8x zoom. there is only 2 buttons on it, shutter and power. it also comes with 8 and 16GB, so it can hold a LOT of pictures. To me, I really don't care for this camera, yea its convenient,, but I don't like to take pictures of everything i see, plus, it's also $400, which is unbelievable. This may appear to be an awesome gadget to some, but to me , it's just not worth it, it's also a cube like kaleidoscope type thing, it's just plain strange.

NASA does twitter give away - 0 views

  •  
    NASA has set up a cool contest. basically they're giving 150 people who follow them on twitter a chance to be there and see the launch of the Mars Rover, this is a one in a lifetime chance, and if you win then you will be given a tour of the facility, you will get to meet the staff and see the launch from the bunker. However, all expenses are not all paid, because you have to pay for travel and accommodations, but I bet all of the winners are still going to go, because this just doesn't happen everyday.

ebooks now passing books - 0 views

  •  
    the change is starting, ebook sales are finally passing printed book sales. I don't think that this will affect anyone in the developing world. book collectors can still collect books, but just digitally. the publishing business can still make profit, by selling these books, emagazines are making more sales than printed ones as well. the world is evolving, and the article said that by approximately 2025, printed books will be obsolete, and a new form of getting information will be in effect.

You will never lose your dog again - 0 views

  •  
    This is a new device that just attaches to dog collars. It will track the pet down no matter where it goes. it just attaches to the collar, so that you will never lose your dog. you just have to charge the battery before going on a walk because the battery only lasts a week, but if you do not charge it regulary then that number will obviously decrease. this device comes with an app so that you can use your phone too.this device will help new pet owners find their pets in case something goes wrong. Maybe I should get one for my brother, he doesn't take directions like "stay here," or "follow me," very well.
