Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. We are pushing the limits of our technology and infrastructure to help you get better search results, faster. Our key technical insight was that people type slowly, but read quickly, typically taking 300 milliseconds between keystrokes, but only 30 milliseconds (a tenth of the time!) to glance at another part of the page. This means that you can scan a results page while you type. The most obvious change is that you get to the right content much faster than before because you don’t have to finish typing your full search term, or even press “search.” Another shift is that seeing results as you type helps you formulate a better search term by providing instant feedback. You can now adapt your search on the fly until the results match exactly what you want. In time, we may wonder how search ever worked in any other way. Benefits Faster Searches: By predicting your search and showing results before you finish typing, Google Instant can save 2-5 seconds per search. Smarter Predictions: Even when you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for, predictions help guide your search. The top prediction is shown in grey text directly in the search box, so you can stop typing as soon as you see what you need. Instant Results: Start typing and results appear right before your eyes. Until now, you had to type a full search term, hit return, and hope for the right results. Now results appear instantly as you type …

Huawei U7519 from Wind Mobile
Saturday, July 24th, 2010This is a quick unboxing and review of the Huawei U7519 from Wind Mobile. The service is pretty good. The phone is a bit slow and the touchscreen isn’t as responsive as I’d like but that may be due to the included screen protector. It has 3g, but I don’t have a data plan so internet is {video_description}.10 per 25kb. There are alot of features in this phone, many relying on internet though, so I have not tested the best ones yet. Pros: Price, this phone cost , and the plans are ridiculously cheap No DRM Easily install nearly any java game Clean crisp calls Easy to use included software makes transfering files and phone management a breeze Cons: Slow to boot up Slow to respond at times Unresponsive touchscreen No Qwerty Keyboard at all, whether onscreen or physical Some may say the relatively small network is a con, but I won’t hold it against them. Wind is a fairly brand new company, and the only company in canada to offer unlimited plans, it’s understandable that it may take some time to break through the barriers of the other big companies in Canada. So check out www.windmobile.ca to see specs on the phone, aswell as network coverage and plan pricing. If you spend alot of time inside their home areas, then I highly recommend this service.
Has the Internet Killed Print Journalism?
Monday, June 7th, 2010Complete video at: fora.tv Wikipedia co-creator Jimmy Wales debates internet cultural critic Andrew Keen on the fate of print journalism in the digital age. —– Web 2.0: Amateur Hour or Mass-ive Knowledge? A debate with Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales and author Andrew Keen. In today’s self-broadcasting culture, where amateurism is celebrated and anyone with an opinion can post a video on YouTube, change an entry on Wikipedia or publish reviews on Yelp, we increasingly turn to the collective intelligence of large numbers of people. Should we rely on the “wisdom of the crowds,” trusting that they are smarter than the expert few? Or is Web 2.0 weakening traditional media to the point where we only have opinion and chaos? – The Commonwealth Club of California Jimmy Donal “Jimbo” Wales (born August 7, 1966 in Huntsville, Alabama) is the founder, board member and Chairman Emeritus of the Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation, a non-profit corporation that operates the Wikipedia project, and several other wiki projects, including Wiktionary and Wikinews. He is also the co-founder, along with Angela Beesley, of the for-profit company Wikia, Inc. Andrew Keen is a Silicon Valley author, broadcaster and entrepreneur whose provocative book Cult of the Amateur: How the Internet is killing our culture was recently acclaimed by The New York Times’ Michiko Kakutani as “shrewdly argued” and written “with acuity and passion.” Chronicle, a commentator for NPR’s Morning Edition and …
New Developments in Link Emulation and packet Scheduling in FreeBSD, Linux, and Windows
Monday, May 24th, 2010Google Tech Talk March 29, 2010 ABSTRACT Presented by Luigi Rizzo. In this talk we will give an overview of some recent activity done at the Universita` di Pisa on link emulation and packet scheduling. We will cover two main topics: – the “dummynet” link emulator shaper at info.iet.unipi.it which has been recently ported to Linux and Windows (in addition to FreeBSD and OSX), and extended with support for multiple scheduling algorithms. In the talk we will briefly the features of dummynet, discuss its performance and applicability, and describe the strategy used to build kernel modules for three very different systems starting from the same codebase. – fast packet scheduling algorithms. info.iet.unipi.it We will present QFQ, a truly practical WFQ scheduler with O(1) complexity and very small constants (110ns per packet on a low-end workstation, 2.5..4 times faster than the best competitor). QFQ is available on all major platforms as part of dummynet. The talk will briefly cover the features of QFQ, and compare it with other existing packet scheduling algorithms. (joint work with Paolo Valente and Fabio Checconi). Luigi Rizzo is an associate Professor at the Universita` di Pisa, and a long time FreeBSD and Asterisk developer. He has worked on various networking topics including multicast congestion control, emulation, and operating system support for high performance networking. In addition to the work presented here, Luigi and his colleagues are currently working on disk …

NEW & HOT !! Wi-Fi Phone Call from a Moving Car?
Monday, April 12th, 2010futurephones.tv Wi-Fi Call from a Moving Car? Dial Tone on a Cell Phone? Believe It — With “1buttontowifi” Make Long Distance Internet Calls from a Cell Phone, PDA, Even a Home Phone, for Pennies With worldtel’s Groundbreaking New Product Showcased at CES ENCINO, CA — (January 3, 2008) — Telecom experts say it’s 5 years away. Most people would say it’s impossible. But a company called worldtel has proved them wrong with a patented new device that will be showcased at the upcoming Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas that combines the value of Internet calling with the convenience of a cell phone. “1buttontowifi” lets the user make a Wi-Fi Internet phone call from miles away, not feet, which means they don’t have to be anywhere near an internet connection — they can even call from a moving car. The device combines computer chips developed in both Silicon Valley and Taiwan to produce the “Digital/Analog/Digital” technology that makes it all possible, and the potential is huge. “There are 3.25 billion cellular devices in use today which can all use 1buttontowifi. This cellular/voip market is virtually untapped” said Steve Lipman, CEO of 1buttontowifi. “This is the only voip product in existence today that joins all of these cellular devices, as well as home phones and pdas, to the internet. Then, users can make a voip call to or from over 130 countries — for just pennies — at the push of one button. This is a whole new wave in telecommunications.” Wi-Fi To voip To …
How to Steal a Botnet and What Can Happen When You Do
Friday, April 9th, 2010Google Tech Talk September 10, 2009 ABSTRACT Presented by Richard A. Kemmerer. Botnets, which are networks of malware-infected machines that are controlled by an adversary, are the root cause of a large number of security threats on the Internet. A particularly sophisticated and insidious type of bot is Torpig, which is a malware program that is designed to harvest sensitive information (such as bank account and credit card data) from its victims. In this talk, we report on our efforts to take control of the Torpig botnet for ten days. Over this period, we observed more than 180 thousand infections and recorded more than 70 GB of data that the bots collected. While botnets have been hijacked before, the Torpig botnet exhibits certain properties that make the analysis of the data particularly interesting. First, it is possible (with reasonable accuracy) to identify unique bot infections and relate that number to the more than 1.2 million IP addresses that contacted our command and control server during the ten day period. This shows that botnet estimates that are based on IP addresses are likely to report inflated numbers. Second, the Torpig botnet is large, targets a variety of applications, and gathers a rich and diverse set of information from the infected victims. This allowed us to perform interesting data analysis that goes well beyond simply counting the number of stolen credit cards. In this talk we will discuss the analysis that we performed on the data collected …
