Video Conferencing and Audio/Visual News 4/05: Surviving the Storm - 0 views

  •  
    There are many patients that lack the specific care because of natural disasters, such as tsunamis and earthquakes, even blizzards. Companies such as polycom and Tandberg both provide this service that was originally meant for bigger businesses, and now these new markets are being serviced by the companies first made for these businesses. As a matter of fact, even telepsychiatry is also offered, or mental health care is also offered. If someone is from afar and needs care right away, then they will get it that easy, instead of waiting for days, they can wait have access to doctor help right away.

Video of purported PlayStation Phone hits Web | The Digital Home - CNET News - 0 views

  •  
    There is supposedly a new telephone that supports the Sony game playing experience coming out, running under the Android OS, found under the website Cnet.com. The main stakeholders here are those who look forward to a gaming telephone, so basically it can run from kids to adults that look for a phone with all this phones capabilities. This development will change the life of gamers who can now take a system that can work as a psp and a phone at the same, and also an mp3 player, picture taker, and other big upgrades to the psp, play station portable. The biggest impact is the development of a new Android phone. This phone combines game play and a cell phone all in one, and the quality of game play is much higher than all phones that have come out so far, which begs questions to be asked, will the phone, which runs under Android, have problems with battery time? Will it be able to have such good game play and be able to function as a fully functional phone, without lag time? If this phone fully functions as a gaming system and a phone, then there will definitely be success to the Android Company, and Sony as well, these two companies will thrive from the money that they will make. Since the phone functions as a computer, its processor is required to be high, especially since it will be playing video games, and the RAM must also be high. The processor and RAM, or random access memory, both define the speed and capability of this cell phone/gaming system. It all comes down to the specs and the scrutiny of the stakeholders, those who will be using this cell phone

WALGREENS RFID TRACKING PLANS STIR CONTROVERSY - Advertising Age - News - 0 views

  •  
    This article strikes the seam that privacy is invaded by those who buy things in stores that are tracked by RFID tags. There are many times that people actually were tracked, two cases in fact, and thus their privacy was breached by the store itself. The group Consumers Against Supermarket Privacy Invasion and Numbering are currently fighting against this so that they make sure that the people have the rights that they deserve, but many stores refuse to bow down.

    According to Elisavet's post, China is censoring its peoples lives online completely, by blocking out many websites that they deem "inappropriate". This is very unfair for people in China because, even though many websites blocked could be deemed as inappropriate, that doesn't mean that everything they censor is correct. It takes away Human rights, because,for example, there is no such censorship in America. I wonder if there were, what would we think and would it be the same? And I wonder if people in China realize that they should definitely make a change, because places like the USA are free of the censorship web they are caught in.

Google wins YouTube case in Spain - 1 views

    Google is being blamed by a Broadcasting company for people posting things that were copyrighted to its Youtube affiliate.

    This article is about Google being blamed by a broadcasting company in Spain for people posting copyrighted things, such as videos, on youtube. There are many people who post things they shouldn't on Youtube but Google shouldn't be condemned for a bunch of individuals that don't have anything better to do. Google won the lawsuit against Telecinco, and Telecinco even had to pay the case charges to Google. When Google is a big search engine on the internet, and you have stupid people posting things on it, but that isn't google's fault when people decide to post things that are copyrighted.
