What is Ajax? 2008-02-18 12:26:19 Web applications are fun to build. They are like the fancy sportscar of Web sites. Web applications allow the designer and developer to get together and solve a problem for their customers that the customers might not have even know they had. That's how the blogging tools like MovableType and Blogger came about after all. I mean, before Blogger, did you know you needed an online tool to build your Web site blog?But most Web applications are slow and tedious. Even the fastest of them has lots of free time for your customers to go get a coffee, work on their dog training, or (worst of all) head off to a faster Web site. It's that dreaded hourglass! You click a link and the hourglass appears as the Web application consults the server and the server thinks about what it's going to send back to

Scientists Invent 30 Year Continuous Power Laptop Battery 2008-02-18 11:20:44 Your next laptop could have a continuous power battery that lasts for 30 years without a single recharge thanks to work being funded by the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory. The breakthrough betavoltaic power cells are constructed from semiconductors and use radioisotopes as the energy source. As the radioactive material decays it emits beta particles that transform into electric power capable of fueling an electrical device like a laptop for years. Although betavoltaic batteries sound Nuclear they’re not, they’re neither use fission/fusion or chemical processes to produce energy and so (do not produce any radioactive or hazardous waste). Betavoltaics generate power when an electron strikes a particular interface between two layers of material. The Process uses beta electron emission Read more:Laptop
What do you know about Linux? 2008-02-17 22:31:39 Linux is an operating system that was initially created as a hobby by a young student, Linus Torvalds, at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linus had an interest in Minix, a small UNIX system, and decided to develop a system that exceeded the Minix standards. He began his work in 1991 when he released version 0.02 and worked steadily until 1994 when version 1.0 of the Linux Kernel was released. The kernel, at the heart of all Linux systems, is developed and released under the GNU General Public License and its source code is freely available to everyone. It is this kernel that forms the base around which a Linux operating system is developed. There are now literally hundreds of companies and organizations and an equal number of individuals that have released their own versions of oper Read more:Linux
101 gadgets that changed the world. whew! 2008-02-17 22:14:57 1. Abacus, AD190 Use of the abacus, with its beads in a rack, was first documented in Han Dynasty China in about AD190, but the word dates to much earlier calculating devices. "Abacus" derives from the Hebrew ibeq, meaning to " wipe the dust" or from the Greek abax, meaning "board covered with dust", which describes the first devices used by the Babylonians. The Chinese version was the speediest way to do sums for centuries and, in the right hands, can still outpace electronic calculators. 2. Archimedes Screw, c.700BC Purportedly devised by the ancient Greek physicist Archimedes of Syracuse in the 3rd century BC to expel bilge water from creaking ships, the screw that bears his name in fact predates Archimedes by about 400 years. Recent digs have established that earlier screws, which are Read more:gadgets
Intel Core Duo vs. Core 2 Duo: What's the Difference? 2008-02-17 10:04:23 Three people have written to me in the last 10 days asking about Intel
Core Duo CPUs vs. Intel Core
2 Duo CPUs. I figured it was time to tackle the topic on the blog.Intel's really to blame here for a horrific naming convention. Any half-conscious marketing executive would commit suicide before putting both a numeral 2 and the word "duo" in the name of a product, particularly when there's also a product with "solo" in the name. But let's put that aside and look at the specs of each.Core Duo is Intel's first dual-core CPU. It's a whole new architecture for Microsoft, using two cores on a single die, which, put simply, gives you two chips in one package. Running at lower speeds than the old Pentium line, the Core Duo conserves substantial power vs. ratcheting up clock speed while offering wh Read more:Intel Core Duo

What's Better Than Bookmarking Your Favorite Web Sites 2008-02-17 07:20:04 A lot of new and interesting web sites and pages come to my attention every week. They arrive by phone, email, voice mail, radio, TV, and newspaper, just to name a few sources. I used to clip articles, flag pages, write myself notes and then try to file everything in some organized way, so I'd be able to find it when I needed it.When I began spending a lot of time on the Internet, I learned how to bookmark various sites and add them to my FAVORITES list, using my browser to keep the files organized. That system was great, but it was only available when I was at the computer that I originally used to capture the link.So when I worked on my laptop instead of my desktop or I was at a client location, I lost access to all that information. And when the desktop computer died.....well, it wasn't Read more:Bookmarking

Gmail More User Friendly 2008-02-14 11:45:25 a-ta-da-daaaa! (fanfare band sounds) Gmail
, the fastest growing email service on the Internet, provided by Google, revamped last autumn, is finally finding its way onto our computers in our own languages. Perhaps a herald needs some special training, I don’t think I was able to underline the importance of this new update the way a pro could have.What’s so great about it? Well, aside from the scoreless numbers of new people soon to embrace Gmail thatwere previously held at bay by their not knowing English all that well to use it, the update comes fully equipped with everything that was added so far. You know the way Google launches a product when it’s almost finished and then patches it as they go along? This is not the case, Gmail has all of its features translated and ready for use Read more:Friendly
Intel's Dual-CPU Beast: Skulltrail Finally Gets Detailed 2008-02-12 05:32:58 The Xeon platform, although extremely powerful and overclockable, has been kept off the consumers' hands for 10 years now. It was about time that Intel
released a consumer-oriented alternative based on the powerful Xeons, and the 10th Xeon anniversary will bring us the Skulltrail beast in all its splendor.Skulltrail is a strange kind of platform, comprised of an Intel D5400XS motherboard and a pair of LGA771quad-core Xeons that have undergone some significant tweaks. The manufacturer had them rebranded as Core 2 Extreme QX9775, since the Xeon name would make the user associate it with those expensive servers.The Skulltrail platform basically inherits all the important aspects of the Xeon technology, but at the same time, they are different in some key points. The Xeon X5482s are fully int Read more:Beast

cash-and-stock bid to acquire Yahoo

Going Out on the Big Night: Make it Romantic, Not Commercial 2008-02-07 08:10:35 It seems that Valentine’s Day has become another holiday that is all about commercialism.

But it’s possible to bring the romance back to this holiday when you head out for the big date and still make it one of the most memorable ever.One way to make the holiday more romantic without having all the added commercialism is to have a picnic. Depending on where you live in the country, it may not be possible to have the picnic outdoors as it will be right in the middle of winter. But plan a picnic indoors somewhere, such as at your house or at his. You can decorate the surroundings to l Read more:Commercial

Valentine’s Day Trivia 2008-02-06 22:18:12 How did Valentine
’s Day originate?The holiday has evolved from Roman mythology to a religious holiday to a day of celebrating love. Romans had the feast of Lupercalia, named after Lupercus, the god of fertility. It happened every year in February and had many parts. There was a sacrificial slaughtering of goats and young dogs, both known for their strong sexual instincts. The sacrifice was to please Lupercus. If the god was happy, he would spare their sheep from his wolves. Another piece of the celebration was the tradition of matching young couples. Each teen boy would choose a girl’s name from a lottery. The two would be paired up for the festivities and remain sexual partners for the following year. This too was done trusting that it was the will of the gods. Also during that era, F Read more:Trivia
