A website I came across gives all the latest news of itech, everything that one needs to know about the information and technology world. There are several items in it which gives the top news from everywhere, and it is an ever growing one. People log in, read the news, write their own or leave comments and messages on the website and its contents.
iPhone came up with a horrible and frightening ad during Halloween which was aptly titled horrorscope. It predicted unpleasant things and as it was temporary and free no one took it very seriously. For example people born under the star sign Scorpio were told that if they had survived an attack on October 26 they would certainly fall prey to rabies and to cure rabies it would need twenty horrible injections. There are many such inventions which make people shudder but most forget it soon enough and do not keep it in mind or take it seriously.
This website also gives serious information like security flaws in accessing sites like Google. There was root access via telnet which was immediately looked into by Google as soon as it appeared and was repaired. There are several talented people who find ways and means of hacking and getting into various forbidden territory. They do not like to be told what to do and what not to. But the various sites are taking precautions to look into their security- and succeeding to a great extent. At least till the next security lapse occurs.
Several new launches are mentioned in this website which keeps on including new items. Sprint's new QWERTY smartphone is featured. This phone is available in only a couple of selected retail stores. Two Sony Ericsson products Sony W705 Walkman phone and MBS-900 Bluetooth speaker are also written about.
Australians are delighted that their Channel Ten is launching a new sports channel next year which will throw a challenge to other channels. It is a 24 hour channel which will telecast the topmost sports events like US NBA Basketball, US Major League Baseball and US Open Golf Tournament besides other events.
Cyclists will be happy to know that a new kind of specs has been invented by Billy May called Nike Hindsight which will help them see things which they normally cannot. This spec is like the big sticker found on the rear window of a school bus and which gives the cyclist an unparalleled vision. This is quite a cheap and useful invention and the urban cyclist will definitely benefit from it. This spec is fitted with Fresnel lenses which are special lenses.
The European Union has apparently imposed a new rule which states that wineries cannot use the word 'Port' on their wine labels unless the wine was made in Portugal. To circumvent this rule winemakers, especially the Peltier Station Winery, have found out a loophole. They have been branding their dessert wines as 'USB' in lieu of the word port. They even boldly stated the $25 wine as USB Port.
The above mentioned news items are just tips of an iceberg. There is more news from the world of Motorola, Nokia, Kodak and other such industries dealing with iTech.
