Google Music Service Officially Launched

Google Music Service
Google finally introduced the Google Music to the public in the Android event, in Los Angeles last Wednesday. Google Music offers the same price with its rival, iTunes.

Android handset users in the United States (U.S.), can get access to Google Music, who has worked with major music labels, except for Warner Music. This service is not available outside the U.S., because Google has not completed negotiations with record labels, to allow selling songs elsewhere.

Unfortunately, Warner Music not included in the Google Music service, which means that Google will lack the famous names, such as Led Zepelin and Prince, which is available on iTunes.

Google Music comes to offer exclusive content of the Rolling Stones, Coldplay, Busta Rhymes, Shakira, Pearl Jam and Dave Matthews Band.

Reported by the Guardian, Thursday (11/17/2011), analysts say, online music sales can provide an additional revenue of Google. But they reveal, Google needs to make sure Android based mobile devices can match the offerings of its competitors.

Android is an operating system number one in the world, with approximately 200 devices worldwide. But without the music service, Android-based smartphones and tablets may not appeal to consumers looking for deals on media experience.

Google offers more than 13 million tracks from Universal, Sony Music and EMI, as well as a thousand independent labels. "You can buy songs or albums directly from a computer or Android device, and will be directly added to the Google Music Library that can be accessed anywhere," said Google.

Google Music can be used on the Android 2.2 and above. To help jump-start their new music store, Google will offer a free song for consumers who download every day. Google is also trying to increase the power of Google+, the buyer can later distribute music through social networking. That is, other people can listen to the song once for free.

This technology giant also announced that the new web version of the Google Music is compatible with all browsers, including iOS.

Facebook Bring Vibes to Compete with Google Music

Facebook Vibes Music Service
The rivalry between Facebook and Google+ increasingly apparent in the social networking world, having previously Facebook cooperation with Skype to bring video chat feature, now the largest social networking service is preparing to bring its music service.

Rumor has developed a limited basis among developers, who say Facebook will present a music service called Vibes.

One software developer Jeff Rose in his blog revealed that, after Facebook released a video chat feature, he saw the codes 'hidden' which indicates that the video chat will have the name Peep, and Vibes for the music service.

"I am looking for the code on Facebook, and I found a feature that has not been announced as Vides. This feature seems to be Facebook's music service," he wrote, as reported by the Telegraph on Monday (7/11/2011).

"Vibes feature will be connected with a source to download music. So I thought, this is the future of Facebook music service," Jeff said.

This assumption is stronger after the mid year ago Facebook is reportedly negotiating with Spotify, which is the site of the leading music service in North America. Reflecting on the partnership with Skype, it could be this issue is not just a figment.

If this be true, then surely this is an open war with Google+. Because as is known, Google's social networking service is also preparing a similar service.

Facebook Unveils Skype Video Chat

Facebook unveils skype video chat with a new group-chat feature and a redesign to its chat tool, the company announced today.

The new features are part of an event Facebook held today at its Palo Alto, Calif., headquarters. Last week, Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that his company was planning to "launch something awesome" today.

The social network's new offering will allow users to group multiple people into a single window to chat. Those who are online will get messages immediately, while those who are not on the platform will receive a summary of the conversation at a later time.

In addition, its chat tool features a sidebar that shows all the folks a respective user chats with most often. That sidebar adjusts in size based on the size of the user's browser window, and "appears when the window is wide enough," Facebook says. According to Zuckerberg, that simple change should make it easier for those with larger browser windows to chat.

Both group chat and Facebook's new chat design are being rolled out starting today.

Advanced Computers with eDNA, can Repair Itself

Development of technology nowadays, has made everything impossible becomes possible. Currently, a team of researchers from University of Denmark is developing a computer that can repair itself.

In their design, computer has the ability as humans to repair itself. The ability of human beings with the regeneration process, became the inspiration for the research team to create this platform. This means that the computer is basically has the ability to repair the physical damage.

If a damage is found, backup resources directly used, assign pending tasks to other parts of the network. Jan Madsen, head of the research team, said this new technology called "electronic DNA" or "eDNA".

This computer does not require the CPU because this computer will be equipped with lots cells (eCells). These cells receive 'eDNA-frequency', which programmed the functions and tasks required. If one of these cells die, other cells will take over the task.

In the computer system is more stable than the computer normally. That's because the whole system was not dependent on one single CPU.

According to Berlingske Tidende newspaper, NASA has shown great interest in the project. NASA estimates that this technology can be used in making sure their equipment will not die in the middle of the mission. Currently, the project is being tested by NASA at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, USA. The test results will be released in November.

In addition, the reduction of the DVD-RW make its weight less than 2 kg. This makes it suitable for handling various mobile activities. But HP still includes an external optical drive devices for users who need them.

Pavilion DM3 has aluminum chassis. The impression elegant look through glossy aluminum trim along the edge of the notebook. In this part entrenched various I/O ports and ventilation holes that make it look full. Multimedia support visible on the availability of an HDMI port and Altec Lansing SRS speakers on the front.

The keyboard and touchpad was no less exciting with the impression of a minimalist but intuitive. Function keys (F1-F12) combined with a navigation shortcut. But by default the 12 keys function are shortcut buttons for brightness, sleep, display, lock, and multimedia. Consequently, if we want to close applications with Alt-F4 combination, you should press the Fn key to activate the keys function.

Although a lot of notebooks equipped with Intel processors such as i3, i5 and i7, DM3-1129TX still uses the Intel Core 2 Duo SP9300 2.26 GHz (which is not so new but still quite steady for mobile computing). For graphics, this notebook using GeForce chips G105M is slightly more stable than the onboard Intel 4500HD. Armed with this concoction, Pavilion DM3-1129TX clear competitive enough compared to the notebooks CPU-based i3-M330 (including the battery resistance is quite durable to be used almost around 5 hours).

E-Display Technology Makes the Display Brighter

Researchers at the University of Cincinnati has developed a new technology called E-Display (Electronic Display). The breakthrough is expected to maximize the brightness of the screen to be easily readable, while significantly reducing power consumption compared with existing devices.

UC together with their partners namely Gamma Dynamics, Dupont and Sun Chemical developed a display technology after seven years of work.

Gamma Dynamics President John Rudolph said that the breakthrough was even more impressive when realizing that similar research efforts elsewhere has lasted a decade without achieving the same results.

Lead researcher Jason Heikenfeld able to solve the obstacles inherent in this technology. "What we've developed to break down significant barriers to electronic display devices are brighter but does not require excessive power consumption," he said, as reported by TG Daily, Wednesday Oktober 13, 2010.

According Heikenfeld there are two types of electronic devices is the limited functionality and slow speeds but requires little power to operate. Examples of this type of device is the e-readers like Kindle.

There are also devices such as mobile phones, laptops and IPAD. This device provides high-quality color and high-speed capabilities for video, but they must use much more power consumption.

The best thing about the new advances may be the fact that e-display technology can be produced with current facilities and equipment that has been used previously. So develop E-Display can be made without having to build all new plants and equipment.

These developments will change the display technology in a variety of handheld devices. Kindle capability will be enhanced and smart phones as well as the iPad will require less power, and also the screen can be read even in bright sunlight.
