By the end of 2012 we screened for good in the world of science fiction: what Google intends to propose, in fact, is something that until now had been only imagined by some special effects film. Apparently it will be a simple pair of glasses, probably a sporty design, but in practice it is an advanced device, connected to the network and able to translate the user in an augmented reality and parallel.

The rumor had already taken hold in recent weeks and is now being revived by the New York Times with a lot of additional details. According to leaked by sources close to the group, in fact, the device has been already completed in the Google Labs X and now being tested: by the end of the year could be ready for landing on the official market and the estimated price distribution could amount between 250 and $ 600. Will not be wearing glasses with continuity (probably adaptation to the eye requires use rationed), but the device can still offer a user experience “magic” that would make the tool a “must-have” for most nerds.

The model already available in the range Oakley could be the basis on which to kick off the project in collaboration with the production house Motorola (Already active on devices such as the MotoACTV), Moreover, is the link which binds the parties and that could lead to the development of a new range based on Android and as to project on a slow flow of information with which to interact.

A device of this type could potentially:

• overlay to reality driving directions from Google Maps;
• interpret reality through Google Goggles;
• transmitting streaming audio;
• view notifications from its own online world;
• enable voice calls;
• allow shooting and uploading of photographs;
• provide geolocation services;
• notify appointments from a calendar.

The limit is your imagination. The limit is the fear of thinking in science fiction instead of science. But these two areas by 2012 could get closer, touch, confused: Google intends to stand between the eyes of its users and external reality, projected onto a pair of lenses.

For many Internet sites are also required to access data and passwords. Whether to retrieve their own emails, to log into social networks, forums and the like, always have the appropriate login information to be kept ready. For this reason, passwords can be stored in Web browsers (e.g. Mozilla Firefox) to simplify their use. Will this routine, then it may happen also that one’s own passwords sometime forget because they do not longer need to enter it each time. If you use Firefox as your browser, but there is a simple way that you can retrieve saved passwords if you have forgotten it over time.

Saved passwords in Firefox display

To read the passwords stored in Mozilla Firefox, you must do the following:

1. First, open the Firefox browser, and in the top menu bar, look for the tab Tools.
2. Then select the tab Tools the sub-item Settings.
3. In the menu window that opens, navigate to the tab eventually Security where the area Passwords. find
4. In this section you will see the button [Stored Passwords ...].
5. Clicking this button opens another window and then, in which all sites in a List are displayed, stored for the user names and passwords.
6. To be able to read a stored password, you must select the Show Passwords, click to see the corresponding website of the user name and associated password.
7. You can now go through the list and the passwords that you forgot to write down and can show if needed.

This way you can quickly and easily retrieve all saved passwords in Firefox if you them for use on another computer, need, or if you want to reinstall your operating system, which would logically go all saved passwords, are lost.

The pictures speak for themselves: between the possibilities offered in a particular section SkyDrive, Which are listed all the personal photographs uploaded to the online cloud storage service, we note that beside the user name is the symbol of a camera, the same that appeared mysterious icon that began the wave of rumors about the month of August. Microsoft was therefore decided to enter a field where the big competitors in the industry are already doing battle, and it is expected that you can video chat not only PC but also on smartphones and Tablet PCs running Windows 8 in addition to ‘ heir of console gaming Xbox 360.

To support these rumors, if the picture is not enough, is the journalist Liveside.net, Michael Gillett, who claims to have met recently British team members of Hotmail which would have confirmed the arrival in the future. You should install only a specific application or a plug-in for entitlement.

It is not clear; however, at the time whether it is a simple extension to the browsers feature video in HD Windows Live Messenger or something closely related to Skype. From Redmond right now everything is silent, but the images are sent out to blow on rumor and curiosity.

The changes will not only start the GUI deeply magazine take the characteristic features of Windows 8 thanks to the style and adjust accordingly to the metro tablet, type of device that Microsoft gives high priority to the new iteration of the platform’s most famous. In a few clicks (or a few taps of your fingers) you can quickly access your files, view them, edit them or share them with others by special instruments.

SkyDrive will be fully integrated within the operating system coming in the second half of 2012, both in terms of graphics and functionality: In fact, any application can easily access data stored in the cloud of Redmond without having to use cumbersome workarounds, accessing each file like any other on the hard disk in use. A new feature is not even better illustrated then allows access to their devices from anywhere, as long as you install the desktop client officer SkyDrive.

If all these features, in fact belong to the realm of certainty having been made known directly from Microsoft, while others are yet to be categorized as a rumor: these include the ability to store BitLocker keys, to increase the space available on your company’s server (with prices expected to start from $ 10 a year for 20 GB up to $ 50 for an additional 100 GB), a world dedicated to the Mac desktop client, and full compatibility with the Open Document format.

Microsoft, in short, sees SkyDrive their own solution to the rise of competing solutions and does not intend to let Apple’s exclusive on the full integration of its cloud services with their own operating platforms. With its 17 million users, after all, the cloud made in Redmond is one of the most active services in the world, and forecasts indicate that growth that will move from the current 10 pet bytes of archived files (about 10 million GB) up to 100 Pet bytes by year end.

A series of rumors about the new processor Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Company have been generated so far. The S4 is the first mobile quad-core built processor using a 28-nanometer process and is the first to integrate 4 G LTE network. However, what has not been revealed yet, are some of the more specific details about the S4 and its components that enable new multimedia tasks for mobile devices.

The S4 chip Camera, or more specifically, Image Signal Processor (ISP, its acronym in English) integrated with advanced features that are designed to allow any ‘smartphone’ or ‘tablet’ function as a high-end digital camera , has assured the company.

The announced at CES 2012 HTC Titan II, for example, has an impressive 16 megapixel camera running on a processor S2, also from Qualcomm. In S4, any given mobile device is ready to shoot up to 20 megapixels and 1080p (30 fps) video capture and up to 3 cameras, the third can be used to capture 3D.

The S4 is also equipped with Qualcomm’s proprietary technology, camera technology 3A (auto focus, auto exposure and auto white balance), allowing the camera practical applications such as blink detection, smile and the degree of estimation of gaze. Other advanced features include the ‘Range Research’ zero shutter lag and image stabilization.

Gesture control is popular in game consoles, thanks to Way, PS Move and Kinect, and other entertainment devices in the home. Thus, S4 camera is designed to support many of these controls gestural and applications created by any developer.

The system that integrates S4 Kinect is similar to, but with a less powerful and accurate technology. In any case, gestures such as shaking hands, moving the body or nodding can be used to control a game or application from a device as small as a smartphone.

In addition to support these features, the chip also provides a support software ecosystem. With the optimizations of software and SDK fasts Qualcomm and augmented reality, the performance of the camera “takes on new experiences,” says the company.

Most of these devices harm the dust. If you operate the machine on the street, the period of its work can be reduced even up to a year. Disruptions in the laptop may be due to contamination of ventilation systems. To prevent this, you should regularly clean the keyboard and the internal space of the apparatus. To do this, fit cylinders, within which pressurized air, and “blowers” of special rubber. You can clean a laptop and a soft, fine brush.

Blowing the dust is not necessary, otherwise the unit can get wet. To remove the dirt, you can use sprays, cleaning fluids and tissues. Buy a set of tools to clean the keyboard: a brush, sponge and sprays. These will help clean it without disassembling the laptop. Mini Vacuum for Keyboard ineffective, because their capacity is too small.

Take a careful cleaning of the screen. Remove volatile particles with compressed air cylinder. After this special lint-free wipes, wipe the screen. You can buy and the liquid for cleaning. Do not use alcohol handy tools. These can damage the matrix. It is better to put on a towel or a micro fiber cloth, lint-free plain water.

If you decide to buy a laptop with optical devices, remember that the dust is especially dangerous for them. Do not hold the optical drive tray open for a long time. Try not to touch the hands of the optical system. Clean it with a special drive.

It is also terrible and low temperatures. Do not expose the unit cooling below -10 ° C. From this port, the battery can not be recovered. Lower temperatures lead to delaminating of the matrix, and plastic, of which the body becomes brittle. If you walked around with a laptop in the cold, do not include its home immediately. Let it warm up at room temperature for at least two hours.

Do not place the laptop on my knees, so that it does not overheat, as the ventilation holes and a block from the cooler are often found at the bottom. They do not want to block.

By following these simple tips and the laptop will serve you for a very long time.

We know that the touch screen devices are now part of our daily lives, in our smart phones and tablets, but what is going to be as touch screen technology in 10 or 15 years, will be part of our day to day and will be even in our mirror. The video also shows how we will see in our cars, such as doctors stop using a conventional tab for a tab and would touch and radiographs in the future. From my point of view is somewhat exaggerated but it is still nice to think we could live this way.

Corning, which makes the Gorilla Glass and other glass for many of our touch screen devices have made this video.

The capacity of the robot at the nanoscale (i.e., one millionth of a millimeter) to program selected cells opens the way for development of new therapies in biomedicine. According to its creators say, led by Shawn Douglas, this technology could be used in the future to design new cancer therapies, as it allows specific target cells and reprogram them to self-destruct.

In this study, the scientists used this system to transmit instructions (which were codified in antibody fragments) to two types of cells (responsible for the leukemia and Lymphoma). Both received a message that they activate its function of cell suicide (apoptosis), which allows the human body to eliminate old or abnormal cells.

Researchers developed this device, which hexagonal shaped, using a method known as ‘origami’ DNA. The term refers to Japanese art consisting of folding paper to make figures of various shapes with imagination and skill (origami). DNA can be synthesized and, like paper, can be manipulated to achieve different structures using nanotechnology.

For several years this technique is used for objects and structures on the nanoscale. Now, researchers at Harvard have made this nano-robot with therapeutic potential. DNA is a biocompatible and biodegradable, so experts believe that nanotechnology may be used to improve drug delivery and transmit molecular signals.

However, the development of these systems presents significant challenges. Among them, set the type of structure to be created, how to program the robot at the nanoscale and how it can open, close and reopen the structure to insert, move and ultimately deliver cargo or instructions should lead to the cells. The new nano-robot represents, according to its authors, significant progress to overcome these obstacles.
