iPad baby baffled by paper magazine

By Brian | October 18, 2011

Video Youth is not wasted on the young. But apparently paper is, and so are static and archaic publishing models that don’t involve pinching and poking. This baby is so used to an iPad that old-fashioned dead-tree media is just baffling

Android apps now playable on Windows PCs

By Brian | October 11, 2011

The 117MB file creates a little widget on the desktop. When launched, it offers a list of available apps. As it stands there is no Android Market support, although Bluestacks has its own Apps Channel with a small selection of utilities and games.

The company has also released an app called Cloud Connect. It can be downloaded from the Android Market and lets users send apps from their handsets to a PC, thus opening doors for any Android software to run on the Windows platform.

How cool is that?

Will try and test if I ever find time.

Enjoy fellow readers.

FireFox 7 puts Memory on a Diet!

By Brian | September 28, 2011

Looks like the days of Firefox hogging up so much of my computer’s memory, (even if I am equipped with 8GB)

Love to hear they are plugging leaks and I can run Firefox for days before I have to restart it…Some days right now I have to restart 2 times a day.

And with a faster internet connection coming soon, this working online will become a much smoother and effiicent process.

Project MemShrink payback

Free whitepaper – 2011 Lippis Report

Firefox 7 has been released with a promise from Mozilla its browser is less of a memory hog.

The new version of Mozilla’s browser will consume up to 50 per cent less of your system’s memory than past editions with most users clawing back 20 and 30 per cent.

Firefox 7 apparently achieves this thanks to a project started in June called MemShrink.

The project’s goal has been to improve the architecture and code in Firefox by eliminating bugs behind memory leaks and putting in place practices to detect regressions.

With Firefox gobbling up substantially reduced amounts of memory, the idea is for Mozilla’s browser to become dramatically faster and less likely to crash if you have lots of web sites and tabs open or keep Firefox running for long periods of time between restarts.

You can read more here.

Other features in Firefox 7 include the fact WebSockets are now enabled by default on mobile, for two-way communications with a remote host for HTTP, while the Canvas element for graphics has been updated for snappier performance.

90+ Law Professors Sign Letter Asking Congress To Reject The PROTECT-IP Act

Google Boss Eric Schmidt :: We’ll Fight Anti-Piracy Blocking Laws

—

ORIGINAL: We’re forcing them to take our concerns seriously: Demand Progress members have sent more than 50,000 emails to Senators to urge them to oppose the Internet Blacklist Bill (the PROTECT IP Act).  Now we’re hearing back from them, and one thing is clear: Our emails are compelling Senators to start thinking hard about Internet freedom.  Will you urge your lawmakers to oppose the Internet Blacklist Bill?  Just fill out the simple form HERE.

PROTECT IP would give the government the power to force Internet service providers, search engines, and other “information location tools” to block users’ access to sites that have been accused of copyright infringement — the initiation of a China-style censorship regime here in the United States.

Senators are writing back to let us know that our emails are making them think twice before rubber-stamping PROTECT IP.  For instance, Oregon’s Jeff Merkley is telling Demand Progress members:

I have heard from many Oregonians on both sides of this issue – those who support providing U.S. agencies with greater authority to shut down websites, and those who are worried that the legislation could result in Internet censorship. Thanks to your letter and the letters of fellow Oregonians, I have asked my staff to take a closer look into this legislation.

Will you email Congress to urge them to oppose the PROTECT IP Act? Just add your info at right to automatically send this note to them, under your name and from your address.  (You can edit the letter if you’d like to.)

Just sign on at right and we’ll send an email to your lawmakers.

This bill has powerful sponsors and is moving fast — will you urge your friends to sign on too? Demand Progress
