Usually all of us using different types of cables and connections don’t think too much about how it works and what happens inside. All what we need is its work must be irreproachable. If you have bought or just going to Buy HDMI Cables you’ve probably heard about HDMI and it seems like just one of many connections on televisions or home-theater receivers. That’s right, but not only.

Comparing different system cable’s connections experts have marked HDMI as having wider screen, more pixels and a faster refresh rate, besides that HDMI system is able to display more colors than other sets and this leads us to it. So HDMI is a set of guidelines for creating high-bandwidth connections between digital devices and with the right setup, it can make a significant difference in a home-theater or PC system then no wonder that HDMI has become more popular than Digital Visual Interface, or DVI. It’s easy to use and supports a TV and PC format. It allows you to get the best combination of your audio and visual world.

27 02 2008

As it became known Apple Corporation had tendered the US patent agency with a new invention which will give users of sensor screen gadgets more operative possibilities. The innovation will let users just using up their fingers to cut, copy and paste fragments of text and to work with files. This is a logical pace and it was to be certainly expected.

Touch Panel monitors have become more and more popular and can be easely attached now to both home PC and Industrial Computer or used as a terminal to networks. The line of operator interface touch panels is one of the most powerful and easy to use in the industry, using it you can virtually replace almost all mechanical pushbuttons, switches, meters, and other peripheral devices. Also it has assisted in recent changes in the design of personal digital assistant (PDA), satellite navigation, mobile phone and security devices integrated radio frequency identification RFID readers and RFID making all these devices more handy and usable.

What kinds of gadgets and gizmos will make our daily lives easier? Do we expect some day cell phones and PDAs with GPS will be integrated into our bodies and individual air vehicles will whisk you anywhere you want to go? I think so. The science of today is the technology of tomorrow.

15 12 2007

No drought that every one who works with computer also makes use of such necessary device as printer. Now you print out important documents, articles or photos of your loved ones without a moment’s hesitation. But do you know that the process of printing has it’s own history and years ago using a printer you could find at once that printer ink is out what presented a big problem. Printers used ribbons or daisy wheels to print on paper. Let’s take a look at the evolution of printer ink cartridges. Ink jet printers and printer cartridges were introduced in 1984 and widely accepted in 1990. First the dot matrix method used a ribbon. But the industry tried to find new more convenient and easier thechnologies to make printing. There is the drop on demand method where the ink squirts onto the paper through tiny nozzles. The amount of ink dropped the page is controlled by the software driver that controls which nozzle fires and when.

After years of changing ribbons, adding toner ink to reservoirs within the computer a printing became not only black and white but colored as well. Now inkjet printer cartridges provide you wide opportunity to print out on any sized paper, on fabric and on film. A modern ink jet printer is the most popular choice for printing using worldwide.
1452 - Gutenberg used oil-based ink, moveable type, and an old winepress to make the first printing press.
Martin Luther began the Protestant reformation making extensive use of the printing press.
1714 - The typewriter was born. Schematics that were done by Mills were discovered however, there is no proof that any typewriters were actually made.
1874 - Christopher Sholes, Samuel Soule, and Carlos Glidden made a keyboard that became known as the “qwerty” because of the first five keys on the top row of the keyboard.
1894 - Franz Wagner developed a typewriter that is very similar to the ones made today. He created a design that let the typists watch as they were typing. Previously, paper would go through a roller as you typed and you could not see what you typed until you were done.
1897 - Underwood (by John Underwood) was the prototypical typewriter of its day.
1939 - Charles Carlson developed electrography, which is the first dry writing technique developed in the United States.

1979 - The IBM 3800 could print out 20,000 lines per minute.

IP Telephony.

12 12 2007

What is this VoIP? This is just IP Telephony also known as Internet telephony or Voice over Broadband. This is real telephone of future. Using your high-speed Internet connection you can make all your phone calls with having the cost advantages to consumers over traditional telephone networks. Besides that you get the ability to transmit more than one telephone call down the same broadband-connected telephone line. Therefore VoIP is real great idea for a simple way to add an extra telephone line to a home or office. Most of the difficulties of creating a secure phone over traditional phone lines, like digitizing and digital transmission are already in place with VoIP. It is only necessary to encrypt and authenticate the existing data stream. 3-way calling, call forwarding, automatic redial, and caller ID; features that traditional telecommunication companies normally charge extra for.

Secure calls using standardized protocols (such as Secure Real-time Transport Protocol.) Most of the difficulties of creating a secure phone over traditional phone lines, like digitizing and digital transmission are already in place with VoIP. It is only necessary to encrypt and authenticate the existing data stream. You get integration with other services available over the Internet, including video conversation, message or data file exchange in parallel with the conversation, audio conferencing, managing address books, and passing information about whether others (e.g. friends or colleagues) are available online to interested parties.
VoIP gives the ability to be mobile. One can make international calls to be in contact anytime, anywhere with an internet connection.
So, one has all reasons now to start to use VoIP. I hope people involved in this project taking care of the future compatibility, security and reliability issue of the exchanges.

Are you ready for your closeup?

28 10 2007

“Give me six lines written by the most honorable of men, and I will find an excuse in them to hang him.” —Cardinal Richelieu

“We don’t know enough about you.” —Google CEO Eric Schmidt

Google controls your e-mail, your videos, your calendar, your searches… What if it controlled your life?
By Cory Doctorow

This new fiction story “SCROOGLED” BY Cory Doctorow that was published in “RADAR FICTION “ is not such fantastic as it could be imagined at first sight. Anyway one has to read it. Here is a short fragment of this story, more of the text you can find in my library.


CLEAN HANDS? Google knows your dirtiest little secrets

“She looked around, then nodded up at the tennis courts. “Top of the light pole there; don’t look,” she said. “That’s one of our muni WiFi access points. Wide-angle webcam. Face away from it when you talk.”

“In the grand scheme of things, it hadn’t cost Google much to wire the city with webcams. Especially when measured against the ability to serve ads to people based on where they were sitting. Greg hadn’t paid much attention when the cameras on all those access points went public—there’d been a day’s worth of blogstorm while people played with the new all-seeing toy, zooming in on various prostitute cruising areas, but after a while the excitement blew over.
Feeling silly, Greg mumbled, “You’re joking.”
“Come with me,” she said, turning away from the pole.
The dogs weren’t happy about cutting their walk short, and expressed their displeasure in the kitchen as Maya made coffee.
“We brokered a compromise with the DHS,” she said, reaching for the milk. “They agreed to stop fishing through our search records, and we agreed to let them see what ads got displayed for users.”
Greg felt sick. “Why? Don’t tell me Yahoo was doing it already…”
“No, no. Well, yes. Sure. Yahoo was doing it. But that wasn’t the reason Google went along. You know, Republicans hate Google. We’re overwhelmingly registered Democratic, so we’re doing what we can to make peace with them before they clobber us. This isn’t P.I.I.”—Personally Identifying Information, the toxic smog of the information age—”It’s just metadata. So it’s only slightly evil.”
