Bandwidth Vs Download Speed Are they same?

The answer is NO... because Bandwidth is the maximum traffic capacity of your Network and Download Speed is what you actually get. Let me explain...

Download Speed depends on two factors. One is Bandwidth. Another is Latency (Also called Delay). Bandwidth is the amount of data that can be transferred during a second. It is normally expressed in bits per second.

Latency is the Round-Trip Time (Host Server -> Destination Server -> Host Server) taken for a small packet of data (usually 32 bytes) when you ping with CMD (Command Prompt). Pinging is a method to measure latency. Latency is normally expressed in milliseconds. Latency increases either if the distance between the Host Server (Your Computer) and the Destination Server (Any Website) increases or if there is a congestion in the traffic. But Latency will not necessarily decrease even if Bandwidth is increased. Why?

In simple terms, Bandwidth is like the width of a pipe. Latency indicates the time taken to cross a particular distance by the flow inside the pipe!! Both these factors together determine the end-result (Download Speed). Got it?

The next-time you communicate with your ISP (Internet Service Provider), don't forget to ask your actual Download speed!!

Google Rolls Out Google Swirl Image Search Engine

this is the latest news about google
Google has rolled out yet another cool google lab feature on 15th november. Google has always been the first to roll out some unique features. Google swirl image search engine not only finds out similar images but it divides them into the group and sub-groups.

Basically Google swirl groups the images according to searched keywords. When you click on the image it will form a cluster of all images. The clustering is done based on the similarity of the images.

Swirl search engine is basically based on the technique called “Similar images” and “Picasa face recolonization” to which decides how to group the images in groups and hierarchies of the group.

You can check the search engine in work from here http://image-swirl.googlelabs.com/

Try Google swirl image search engine and enjoy having the fun with image search . Did you like the new Google lab feature?

100 ways to make your computer blazingly fast

1. Defragment your computer hard disk using free tools like SmartDefrag.
2. You should also defragment your Windows pagefile and registry.

3. Clean up hard drive disk space being taken up by temporary files, the recycle bin, hibernation and more. You can also use a tool like TreeSize to determine what is taking up space on your hard drive.

4. Load up Windows faster by using Startup Delayer, a free program that will speed up the boot time of Windows by delaying the startup of programs.

5. Speaking of startup programs, many of them are useless and can be turned off. Use the MSCONFIG utility to disable startup programs.

6. By default, the size of the paging file is controlled by Windows, which can cause defragmentation. Also, the paging file should be on a different hard drive or partition than the boot partition. Read here on the rules for best paging file performance.

7. In Windows XP and Vista, the Windows Search indexing service is turned on for all local hard drives. Turning off indexing is a simple way to increase performance.

8. If you don’t care about all the fancy visual effects in Windows, you can turn them off by going to Performance Options.

9. You can optimize the Windows boot time using a free program called Bootvis from Microsoft.

10. Clean your registry by removing broken shortcuts, missing shared DLLs, invalid paths, invalid installer references and more. Read about the 10 best and free registry cleaners.

11. One of the main reasons why PC’s are slow is because of spyware. There are many programs to remove spyware including Ad-Aware, Giant Antispyware, SUPERAntiSpyware, and more.

2. Write .LOG (in CAPS only) as the first line of the file, followed by an Enter. Save the File and close it.
3. Double-click the file to open it and notice that Notepad appends the Current Date and Time to the end of the file and places the cursor on the Line after.
4. Type your notes and then save and close the file.
5. Each time you open the file, Notepad repeats the process, appending the Date and Time to the end of the file and placing the cursor below it.

What is an IP Address?

IP address (Internet Protocol address) is a unique number that distinguishes one device from another on the Internet. In layman's terms, it is the same as your house number. An IP address serves two principal functions; identification and location addressing. This enables one to communicate with other computers all over the world.

There are two versions of Internet Protocol.

IP version 4: Currently used by most of the network providers. However, with more and more computers accessing the internet, IPv4 addresses are running out quickly because they are limited to approximately four billion only (256 to the fourth power).

IP version 6: The replacement for IPv4 has a vast range of IP addresses, inexhaustible for all practical purposes. The estimated number of unique addresses in IPv6 is trillions of trillions!!

In IPv4, an IP address is made up of four numbers, each between 0 and 255. The general information is conveyed by the first number, and the specific identification of a computer within a network is usually made by the last number. The IP address 0.0.0.0 is usually reserved for the default network and the address 255.255.255.255 is used for broadcasts.

IP addresses can be permanent or temporary.

Dynamic IP Address: When a home PC dials the Internet service provider (ISP) through modem/ router, an IP address is temporarily assigned from a pool of available addresses for the duration of the call. This IP address is not static and could change the next time.

Static IP Address: An IP address that is fixed and never changes. A single or a block of static IPs can be obtained for a few extra bucks a month from most ISPs (usually meant for Email/ Website servers).

Samsung Bracelet Smartphone Packs OLED Display, Relies on Memory Alloy Articulation

Erik Campbell designed a very original Samsung bracelet phone, a wearable mobile device concept that relies on memory alloy articulation. This smartphone is destined to reach the wrists of athletes, adventurers and tech freaks from all over the world. Here’s the design:

LG 3D Mobile Phone, Designed by Petr Kubik

Samsung already announced a 3D display mobile phone and we’ve all seen 3D television sets getting released lately. But what about other companies? Petr Kubik designed a 3D LG mobile phone concept, that includes glasses, an intuitive stylus and expandable screens. 3D movies and even tridimensional videocalling is supported on the device.

The 3D phone measures 66×133x14mm, features an adjustable leg support and a photovoltaic screen at the rear for instant recharging. It also comes with an expandable touch display, measuring 177×104mm. WiFi and Bluetooth are also on board, as well as Skype support, a mini USB port, speakers, a mic and 3D scanners.

The interactive stylus is a pretty nifty piece of work, but we’d like a cellphone that shows 3D images, without requiring special glasses. Can this be achieved and what company will do that first?

SAIC-GM YeZ, Eco-Friendly Concept Car of the Year 2030

The YeZ concept car is an all electric, eco-friendly vehicle that was designed by the joint venture of SAIC and GM. The design of the car is environment-oriented and gets its power from natural resources.

The concept vehicle features solar panels, which are located on the rooftop and small wind turbines, placed on its wheels. Besides the solar panels, the roof of the YeZ will benefit from an innovative system that will capture carbon dioxide from the surrounding air and then release oxygen in the atmosphere.

The electric energy generated by the solar panels and the wind turbines it’s going to be stored in onboard batteries that will power the vehicle. No technical specifications are available, since the YeZ concept is only a dream of eco-friendly cars that will be used in 2030.

BlackBerry Empathy Phone Comes With a Mood Ring, Flexible OLED Display

Daniel Yoon created one sweet, sweet BlackBerry concept, the Empathy Phone that comes with a mood ring, as shown below. This social networking-focused device delivers biometric data regarding the user’s emotional state, relying on the mood ring accessory.

Imagine sharing your feelings not directly, but via the ring we mentioned. How cool is that? BlackBerry Empathy connects the user straight away to sites like FaceBook and MySpace for quick messaging and status updates. The device also comes with proximity sensors, allowing you to detect the emotions of the folks nearby through an emotion chart with a visual timeline.

Empathy uses movable keys, a translucent tactile keyboard and a flexible OLED display, plus a HUD (heads up display). The keypad on this phone can change color according to the user’s emotions, that are sensed through messages, phones calls and biometric sensors. Does this new take on social networking scare you, or do you find the concept appealing?

How to Activate and Use “Find my iPhone” Feature on iPhone 3GS

Today me posting a very interesting guide on how to install and activate the “Find my iPhone” on any device with IOS. One of the most unexpected developments iOS 4.2 has been the launch of a version of the application Find my iPhone (Find my iPhone) with 30 new languages and the ability to run free using our Apple ID after configuring it as if you activate were a MobileMe account. The idea is great but comes with one of those strange decisions that both mosques, and rightly, affected users: one is free for iPhone users 4, IPAD or fourth-generation iPod.

But what if I told you that you can use in the rest of our devices with IOS 4.2? The process is very simple but is not available to everyone. All you need do is create a free account, MobileMe / Find my Iphone from one of the supported devices and then add it as such to those who initially are not. To do this you must add a new MobileMe account from Settings / Mail, contacts, calendar. introducing our Apple ID and password and accept the new terms of use. Then install the application on the device you want and repeat the above process. As easy as that.

Since this time, if ever lost or stolen iPhone, iPad, or iPod (the latter are more difficult to spot because they have to be connected to a WiFi network to work) you can keep track through the application ( obviously installed on another device with iOS you have not lost) or through the MobileMe website, send a message plan (hey, if you found my iphone call me at this number and I will reward you), play a sound to locate, lock remote or deleting it so that nobody can access your data.

Sony Ericsson Xperia X12 Anzu with Android Gingerbread OS

Some time ago many talked about the appearance of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X12 Android 2.3 of which had leaked some images and now the news is filtering its technical specifications, which are not bad.

• Snapdragon Qualcomm MSM7230 processor
• 8.1 megapixel camera with auto focus and lens easy recognition Exmor R
• HD video recording at 30fps 720p HD, with stereo audio support,
• 3.5mm output (with adapter)
• Noise cancellation
• FWVGA capacitive screen 4.2 “multi-touch LED x 16 million colors
• WiFi 802.11 b / g / n
• HDMI (type D)
• 125.0 x 62.5 x 8.7-10.9 mm
• Battery 1500 mAh
• Android Gingerbread OS

Some of the specs are really good, and it is estimated also that its price would be about 650 euros, which could leave him somewhat apart from the competition by now.

Nokia N9-01 MeeGo Phone concept 12MP, CBD 4.1″ 1280x720x32, 64gb, Dual Core 1GHz

Thomas Boutroue sends in his Dream Nokia – the Nokia N9-01

His dream specs are on the side but just to reiterate:

• MeeGo 1.2
• Dual Core 1GHz
• 1GB RAM
• 64GB Internal
• Micro-SD Reader
• Physical Keyboard
• Spaced Keys
• Sensitive Pad
• No keys on the front
• Hard keys for +/0 and camera
• Face Cam 5MP
• Rear Cam 12MP
• Camera Lens Cover (Very, very important feature now realising what I’ve missed. So easy to wash out photos, especially with bright flash when there’s a smudge on the camera glass)
• 4 LED Flash (ooh quadflash again? No one seems to be a fan of the Xenon. Then again, I do miss that spontaneous LED torch. But Not so much as blurry people pics :p)
• Aluminium casing (Early N9 leak has that single aluminium macbook pro look)
• CBD 4.1″ 1280X720X32 (Where’s the 32? I’ve always envisioned that the surrounding side border around the phone could form some touch input – no actual buttons needed. Or that around the screen are a few SEPARATE pixels that would truly make it borderless but still be functional in certain situations where you might need that border.)
• LED Notification on the front (OH Real N9, you must have this like the N900. It’s unbelievably useful)
• Resistive but multitouch (uh oh – controversial. Die Hard N900 fans would agree. Well this is Thomas’ own Dream Nokia)
• Very Strong Front Surface
• Dolby Surround. Jack 3.5 Audio Out
• Wireless HDMI
• Micro USB + HOST + OTG
• 4000 mAh battery (AMEN! But I doubt we’ll ever get more than 1500mAh for any Nokia Phone given current size constraints from Nok)
• Bluetooth 4.0
• WiFi N
• LTE Support
• 6.5×12.0×1.0cm

The good thing is, a lot of these specs (bar a few such as battery capacity) are actually physically possible right now.

Very early Nokia MeeGo UI worth posting. Even if it doesn’t improve from this I’d be impressed.

Nokia N10 MeeGo Phone Concept

This comes by way of Peter Lackman – the Nokia N10. When I say N10 I can’t help but think Ben 10 (ah I’m so childish).

No details on specifications from the email but as you can see we have this:

• gloriously huge space eating screen – hardly any wasting of any phone face. This might well be the future where pretty much all front area is screen – the borderless goal huh?
• N10 sports the Nokia N8′s 12MP camera – no xenon but quad-LED-flash as seen in the X7 concept. Certainly be a pro-night video shooter.
• There’s HDMI,
• 4-row Tilt hinge QWERTY
• Near Field Communication (as secretly found in the C7)
• I love the phone book landscape. Blergh it is MeeGo. Cheers Andre

New Firmware Update for Nokia N8

Expected in the coming weeks a firmware update for Symbian ^3 and more specifically for the Nokia N8 (but only because the Nokia E7 is not yet available in any market), according to information leaked recently, along with what is already knew about a new browser available, startup screen that can be dragged and-finally-QWERTY keyboard in portrait mode, several other developments.

The Nokia N8 current firmware is 1.0, but apparently in the forthcoming update, it is estimated that in two weeks in early December, just for the holidays this year-end would bring more sensitivity to touch, the famous new browser would and also some other minor updates, nothing important at the moment, since it seems that large developments are being reserved for next year.

Important Facts About U R Mobiles

Something to learn about...
THINGS YOU NEVER KNEW YOUR CELLPHONE COULD ..
There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it: -

EMERGENCY

1.
*The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is 112.* If you find yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. **Try it out.**


II
*Subject: Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote keys?*
This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone:
If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call
Someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone.

Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Editor's Note: *It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car
over a cell phone!"*


*III*
Subject: Hidden Battery power
Imagine your cell battery is very low, you are expecting an important call and you don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a reserve battery. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
AND


*IV*
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone:* # 0 6 #
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. when your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.

You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either.

If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones
