Google Body (new google application)

The WebGL, GUI free competitor to Flash, can use the OpenGL standard JavaScript code directly from a Web page (Web page is a resource on the World Wide Web designed to be viewed by visitors to the aid of a browser ...). This technology (The word has two meanings of technology did:) allows the display (The display is the application of a surface of paper script into a public place (not the home) on a carrier ...) of 3D content in a page, using the OpenGL drivers, and hardware acceleration of graphics card. Google wanted to circumvent the need (requirements are at the level of interaction between the individual and the environment. It is often a ...) to install new drivers, especially for users of Windows (Windows is a range of operating systems produced by Microsoft, principally with the machines ...), where his work on his project (a project - in a professional context - a temporary adventure company in order to create a product or ...) ANGLE (In geometry, the general concept of angle is divided into several related concepts.) (Almost Native Layer Graphics Engine) which is to use the WebGL directly without going through the installation of drivers.

Body Application Browser allows the user to "manipulate" a human body, by turning on itself and by zooming in on the parts that interest them, all with great fluidity. It is also possible to choose what you want to view, adjusting the transparency (A material or object is described as transparent when it lets light through. ...): The concept hinges on the skeleton, organs, nervous system (the nervous system is a network system consisting of the sense organs, nerves, brain, spinal cord ,...), the vascular system (blood and lymphatic vessels), muscle or whole body. An engine (an engine is a device that transforms a non-mechanical energy (wind, chemical, electrical, thermal ...) Research (Scientific research means first of all actions taken to produce and. ..) allows you to find a bone by typing its name, for example.

Obviously, this application requires a browser that supports API WebGL. For now, only Chrome 9 beta version of Safari developers, and Firefox beta 4 permit. You can download a browser and test this application directly to http://bodybrowser.googlelabs.com/

New EU standards relating to universal charger for mobile phone

The Commission welcomes the new EU standards relating to universal charger for mobile (The phone is a communication system, initially designed to transmit the human voice.) Portable. Pursuant to a mandate from the European Commission, the European standards bodies CEN-CENELEC and ETSI have just presented the harmonized standards required for the manufacture of mobile phones compatible computer with a new charger. These standards are the latest step in the process initiated by the Commission to design a universal charger for mobile phones used around the world (The word can describe the world:) integer, are following the agreement in which fourteen major handset manufacturers are committed in June 2009, to standardize computerized chargers for mobile phones (that is to say cell phones can be connected to a computer) sold in the European Union.

Antonio Tajani, Vice-President of the European Commission and Commissioner for Enterprise and Entrepreneurship, said: "I am delighted that the European standards bodies have, as we have asked them, quickly developed the necessary technical standards the manufacture of a universal charger for mobile phone, based on work done by the industry. The latter must now demonstrate its commitment to sell mobile phones compatible with this new charger. The universal charger will make life easier for consumers, help reduce waste and benefit businesses. Everyone will find his account. "

The incompatibility of mobile phone chargers is an inconvenience to users, but also a huge ecological problem. A user wishing to change their mobile phone must usually purchase a new charger and get rid of the old, even if it is in good condition. To meet the expectations of citizens, who claim universal charger, the Commission asked manufacturers to agree on a technical solution to make them compatible loaders of different brands.

Manufacturers of mobile phones world-class are therefore committed to ensuring the compatibility of mobile computer, which should penetrate the market within two years, through the Micro-USB connector. The agreement, established in June 2009, was signed by Apple, Emblaze Mobile, Huawei Technologies (Huawei Telecommunications Co. Ltd.. (????????, Huawei Jishu Y? Uxiàn G? Ngs?) Is a manufacturer Chinese equipment ...), LGE, Motorola (www.motorola.com / uk) Mobility, NEC, Nokia (Nokia is a Finnish telecommunications company. It is the world's largest manufacturer of mobile ...), Qualcomm Research In Motion (RIM), Samsung, Sony Ericsson (Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB (Sony Ericsson) is a joint venture created in 2001 by Japan's Sony and ...), TST Mobile (ALCATEL), Texas Instruments and Atmel ( IP/09/1049).

In December 2009, the Commission entrusted to CEN-CENELEC and ETSI the task of developing European standards relating to universal charger. The two European standards bodies are to present the fruits of their labor. The standards help ensure interoperability, namely the universal compatibility of the charger with mobile computer brands. They also take into account risks to safety and electromagnetic emissions and ensure that universal chargers are adequately protected against external interference.

According to the European Commission, the first universal chargers and mobile phones meeting the new standards are expected to arrive on the European market during the first months of 2011.

SOHO discovers its 2000th comet

This milestone was reached at the end of the day December 26, 2010 when the amateur astronomer Michal Kusiak Poland, which recently found its 100th comet (in astronomy, a comet is a small bright star in the solar system whose orbit has usually in the form of a ...) SOHO (SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory, or Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) spacecraft is placed ...), announced problable observation (Observation is action Careful monitoring of the phenomena, without willingness to change, to help ...) of a small comet belonging to the Kreutz group in LASCO C2 images from SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory). This comet in heels one that had been discovered earlier in the day, the couple becoming the 2000th discoveries for 1999 and the satellite
SOHO-2000 is a member of the Comets "Kreutz" - a (very) large population of comets that all share the same orbital path in joint space. Kreutz comets come from a single parent comet that is supposed to have broken close to the Sun centuries ago, or perhaps millennia.
Approximately 85% of SOHO comets discovered are tiny fragments of the original object

what's Google doing with energie??

That's the question many people ask at this time (Time is a unit of measure:) now. Despite the battle raging between Google (This article or section should be recycled. Its quality should be significantly improved by reorganizing and on ...) and Facebook (Facebook is a networking Web site (social network) for the starting to gather students and students ...) on the front of the control (The word control can have several meanings. It can be used as a synonym for review, audit and control.) Internet (Internet is global computer network that gives public access to services such as email ...), it does not go a week without that we hear the name of the famous company in Mountain View partner in an initiative or an investment in the clean technologies and intelligent network. This is understandable when the subject is that of data centers is the trades of the company. But other issues may surprise by their total lack of business model partner.

When the news broke that Google had created a subsidiary called "Google Energy", which sought to buy and sell electricity on wholesale markets, the Internet players and Energy (in the sense Common Energy is anything that can perform a job, making the heat, ...) were taken by surprise. If Google is allowed to buy and sell power, would do exactly the engine (an engine is a device that transforms a non-mechanical energy (wind, chemical, electrical, thermal ...) Research (Scientific research means First of all actions taken to produce and ...)? The question did not arise as long as the authorization to do so quickly it was issued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
So Google wants to help save the planet or is it simply a strategy (Strategy - the Greek stratos, meaning "army" and agein which means "drive" -...) diversification?
Data centers, large energy consumers

The answer is quite simple according to Bill Weihl: First Google spends a lot of energy through its data centers, and office buildings that house its 22,000 employees worldwide (The word can describe the world:) wide. It is therefore to provide flexibility for Google to buy renewable energy (a renewable energy source is being renewed fast enough to be considered ...) for its facilities. Google contracts with energy suppliers over several years but wants to keep the opportunity to engage with suppliers of renewable energy such as a developer (In computing, a developer (or programmer) is a computer that performs the software by creating algorithms ...) Park (A park is a natural ground enclosures, [1] made of wood or prairie, which were drawn aisles and ...) that would move wind near any of its data centers. So Google wants to change its supply and sell electricity from the initial contract so as not to lose money. This strategy is even more understandable that Facebook has been the target of much criticism from Greenpeace about energy supply in its data centers in Oregon or the energy comes from highly polluting power plants. From this point of view Google has won the battle of the image.

Data centers energy efficient
Moreover, the work of Google for its data centers do not stop to energy supply. Google claims to have halved the energy consumption of its centers and reaching a Power Usage (use the action is to use something.) Effectiveness (PUE) of 1.2 which is a measure the efficiency with which a data center uses its energy, more specifically, the share of energy actually used by the hardware (computing means the automated processing of information by a system, concrete ( machine) or abstract ....) (unlike the cooling and other overheads). The EEP is equal to the total amount (Total is the quality of what is complete, without exception. From an accounting perspective, the total is ...) of electricity used divided by the power (The word power is used in several areas with special meaning:) granted to computer equipment. The aim is obviously to achieve UPE closest to 1.

Here's how to reduce that number, according Weihl:
1. Compartmentalize hot and cold - Google confines the heat in the aisles between the servers.

2. Increase heat - Google maintains a high temperature to 26 degrees, keeping an eye on hot spots around the temperature measurement.

3. Minimize air conditioning use in cooling towers, fresh air etc ...

Facebook at the top!!!

For the first time in several years, Google is no longer head of the most visited sites in the United States. The new king of the Web is now the popular social networking site (A social network is a set of social entities such as individuals or social organizations linked ...) Facebook (Facebook is a networking website (network office) Originally intended to bring together students and students ...), according to a new study of firm Experian Hitwise.

With 8.93% of visits to global USA for facebook.com between January and November 2010 against 7.19% for google.com, the advance is obvious. Facebook is even topped uninterrupted since March 2010.A year earlier, the first place was occupied by Google, to Yahoo. Taking into account the different sites composing the galaxy Google, that is to say, adding among other Youtube and Gmail (Gmail is a free webmail launched on 1 April 2004 by Google. It is still today ' Today, Google ...), phase remains in first place with 9.85% of visits, the second (II is the feminine of the adjective second, which comes immediately after the first or in addition to ... ) instead returns to Facebook with still 8.93% of visits and the third place Yahoo! with 8.12% for all of its sites.

According to analyst Greg Sterling, the figures announced by the firm Experian Hitwise be taken with hindsight, they do not in fact account of visits via mobile devices, and it is possible to consult the Google results without going through its home page, by searching directly from the appropriate function of the browser for example. Nevertheless, growth of Facebook is spectacular, with now over 500 million active users.
