Surface Review

2012-12-06T15:44:00.001+00:00

At its Surface debut event in June, Microsoft said that the ARM-based Surface for Windows RT tablets (the ones that can only run apps from the Windows Store) will be available first, with the Surface Pro (the ones with a proper Intel chip, which can run desktop software) coming a few months later.
Microsoft hasn't officially announced pricing, but hinted that the RT device would have a similar price tag to current tablets (perhaps like the £399 iPad), while the Surface Pro would be price in line with Ultrabooks (which cost about £1,000).

Both tablets feature a 10.6-inch display, but the similarities stop there. The RT tablet has a microSD reader, USB 2, MicroHD and 32 or 64GB of storage. The Pro has a microSDXC reader, USB 3, Mini DisplayPort and 64GB or 128GB of space.

Microsoft has also revealed a handful of new accessories that are designed for tablets and computers running on Windows 8.

Microsoft Wedge Mobile Keyboard is a full-size Bluetooth keyboard, with a dedicated button to whisk you to the Metro home screen. Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Keyboard has a delicate six-degree curve.
The Microsoft Sculpt Touch Mouse and Microsoft Touch Mouse have four-way touch scroll strips, which are handy for moving horizontally on the Metro home screen. The dinky Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse is designed for mobile use -- it can slip into a pocket, works on any surface, and shuts off when the tablet goes to sleep.

What's EE ? I'm on T-Mobile Orange ? What's LTE ?

2012-10-28T14:32:00.001+00:00

Before you go complaining to your local T-Mobile store, if I said then are moving on to a 4G network fives faster then Three's (the mobile network) 3G. Who said Pink and and Orange don't go together.

4GEE-LTE is the offical name or the super-fast network. I will explan it so non-4Geek can understand

FAQ

EE stand for Everything Everywhere. EE is T-Mobile and Orange together. EE is NOT 4G, it's a 2G,3G and 4G network like T-Mobile, Orange, Three, Vofone, Virgin ect. but

4G is the fourth g much much MUCH more faster than 3G. 3G at it's fastest is about 2,000kbps (Only if you got four/full bars,strong singal and very lucky) 4G on averge is 300,000,000kbps. THAT'S 300 MEGABITES PER SECOUND. That will take about a mirco-second to load this website

LTE stands Long Term Evolution technicaly 4G. New-er phone on many moblie provider are 4G ready but on EE, phones like the Samsung Galaxy Note II LTE, SII lTE and the iPhone 5 are 4G-enabled

Minecraft notches 50m downloads

2012-05-11T20:36:00.001+01:00

I recently be playing a game (alot) called Minecraft

With 50 million registered players and a hardcore community, Minecraft is one of indie gaming's most astonishing and important success stories.

Originally released on the PC in 2009 as a working project, the title has been evolving ever since, adding new features, rules and modes and now a console conversion. Along the way, it has quietly become such a vital cultural force it even has its own Lego set. Which, if you know anything about Minecraft, is a delicious irony.

If, however, you still don't anything about Minecraft (wha... what?!), imagine a Lego set crossed with a resource management simulation. That is basically it. When you start a game, the engine builds a vast landscape via procedural generation, meaning no two worlds are the same. You're now free to explore this blocky Eden, climbing its mountains, strolling along beaches and staring up at the slabs of white cloud that float past like cubist spacecraft... Read more at

Google Maps 8-bit Quest Mode

2012-04-01T20:13:00.003+01:00

Google Maps is exploring a brand new frontier with its next expansion: the Nintendo Entertainment System.

If you click on Quest it will turn Google Maps into an 8-bit, classic video game wonderland.

“Our engineering team in Japan understood the importance of maps on retro game systems,” writes Tatsuo Nomura, software engineer with Google Maps, at the application’s official blog. “With the power of Google’s immense data centers, and support from Nintendo and Square Enix, we were able to overcome the technical and design hurdles of developing 8-bit maps. Today, we’re excited to announce the result: a version of Google Maps for NES, with beautiful low-res graphics, simple and intuitive controls, and a timeless soundtrack.”

The maps pay homage to the classic NES role-playing game Dragon Warrior, which was known as Dragon Quest in Japan.

Users can even view landmarks in 8-bit form, including The Statue of Liberty, the Washington Monument and Mount Rushmore. Fortunately, no Slimes were encountered during our journey.

Google has also posted a great video walkthrough on YouTube of the spoof application for NES, including troubleshooting tips such as “blowing on the cartridge.”

Rovio team up with NASA

2012-03-09T23:43:00.001+00:00

Good news for Angry bird fans. Rovio has teamed up with NASA to launch Angry Birds Space.
The new game will be released on 22 March and will be available on iOS, Android, PC and Mac.
"This began with a Twitter exchange about birds and pigs in space, and has grown into a tremendous outreach and education opportunity," said Nasa spokesman David Weaver.
"Games are fun and entertaining but can be inspirational and informative."
In an online video promoting the game, a US astronaut on the International Space Station explains the laws of physics using Angry Bird characters as props.
At one point flight engineer Don Pettit is seen firing a red bird down a space station corridor using a slingshot.
Nasa has called the collaboration with Rovio and Angry Birds "an exciting way to get people engaged with Nasa's missions of exploration and discovery, and get students energized about future careers in science and technology".
Peter Vesterbacka, Rovio's chief marketing officer, said the company wanted to create something "unique" for the game launch.

From the weightlessness of space to the gravity wells of nearby planets, fans can have fun with physics as they try out new gameplay possibilities
Peter VesterbackaRovio's chief marketing officer
"Nasa has been the perfect partner for our Angry Birds Space programme and we can't wait to work with them on creating more compelling educational experiences," he said.
Angry Birds Space features 60 initial levels and six new characters but has what Rovio says is a "unique twist in a variable gravity environment".
"From the weightlessness of space to the gravity wells of nearby planets, fans can have fun with physics as they try out new gameplay possibilities," Peter Vesterbacka added.
"The Angry Birds themselves have also transformed into superheroes, with new costumes and abilities."
More levels will be available as free regular updates and in-app purchases.
In November, Angry Birds became the first game to achieve 500 million downloads less than two years after it was released.

PS VITA

2012-03-03T16:17:00.003+00:00

Name: PlayStation Vita (PS Vita)

Type: Handheld Gaming Console

Price: Starting at £197 (Wi-Fi and 3G) from Amazon

Sony's long-awaited PSP successor, the PlayStation Vita, is finally here. The most powerful handheld gaming console of all time, there's no denying it's a mightily impressive bit of kit. But in this age of tablet and smartphone apps, not to mention having a direct rival in the form of the Nintendo 3DS, is there room for another gaming device in our already stuffed pockets? Read on to find out.

Build

The PS Vita is big. Game Gear big, almost. But thankfully, it's rarely uncomfortable. Measuring 182mm across, 83.5mm tall and 18.6mm thick, it looks fairly similar to the PSP 1000 model, but scaled upwards slightly. Therefore you've still got a black, elongated oval-ish shape in your hands, with two shoulder buttons, a D-Pad, and the four Cross, Square, Triangle and Circle buttons. There are also start, select and a PlayStation-branded home button for jumping out of games or back through menu screens, as well as a modest 0.3MP camera on the front.

The most significant difference from a purely gaming perspective when it comes to design is the inclusion of dual thumb sticks. In 3D games for instance, this means you get control over both your character and the camera, or in a shooter control over both movement and aiming. Though smaller than you'd find on a PS3 controller, they're responsive, and sit in a comfortable position on the console.

The rear houses another 0.3MP camera, and two small indentations with which to better grip the console. At only 260 grams for the Wi-Fi version and 279 grams for the Vita with 3G added, you're unlikely to find holding the console over long periods too uncomfortable. That is, barring one new addition; the rear, touch-sensitive backplate. Its uses vary depending on the game played, but we often found our fingers straying onto it unintentionally, triggering actions in-game that we hadn't wished too. Hopefully many games will make its use optional.

Onto the edges! Underneath, you'll find the headphone socket and proprietary charging port, which has a USB connection on the other end of its cable for PC file transfer. The top edge has those two shoulder buttons of course, as well as volume and power buttons, and two covered slots, one for Vita game sticks and the other being an accessory port. If you pick up a 3G version, you'll find a SIM card slot on the side too.

Lastly, the screen. It's a beauty, measuring 5 inches in size, with full multi-touch capabilities. Being an OLED display, it's not too massive a drain on battery levels compared to LCD, and is bright and vibrantly coloured no matter what angle you're looking at it from. Just shy of a HD resolution at 960 x 544, 220 pixels per inch, the Vita still offers sharp visuals.

Gaming Performance
Powered by a quad core ARM Cortex-A9 processor and a quad core SGX543MP4+ graphics processing unit, the PS Vita is a veritable gaming beast. While we'll leave the specifics of which games look and perform the best for a future feature, needless to say the PS Vita is graphically the most impressive handheld gaming console we've ever seen. It blows even the iPad 2's best efforts (like Infinity Blade 2) out of the water, and even recent 3DS visual showcases like Resident Evil: Revelations can't hold a candle to the stunning looks of Vita launch titles like Uncharted: Golden Abyss. Speedier games like WipEout 2048 run at a brisk pace, with little or no sign of slowdown. It's not quite as pretty as a PS3, but the fact that it's even comparable is mind-boggling.

The Vita is not without its faults though. Loading times, whether pulling your downloaded games from onboard storage or retail sticks, can be lengthy. Again, I'll state I'm not a fan of the rear-touchpad, which requires insane dexterity to use efficiently. Some may also find the face buttons and sticks a little too small as well. For the most part though, this is an incredibly impressive offering from Sony, who really are giving the hardcore gaming crowd the handheld they've yearned so long for.

With all its bells and whistles though, the console still also has lots to offer the casual market. Touchscreen controls and augmented reality gaming through the onboard cameras and gyroscope open up the potential for more casually-orientated games too, not to mention the secondary functions such as web browsing the device offers.

Pretty much every base is covered here, bar one; backwards compatibility. Though you can go back into the PS Store and again grab downloadable copies of your old PSP games, what of your titles stored on UMD discs? Japan have been offered the UMD Passport, allowing gamers register a bought UMD game on your PSP and then download a digital copy to your Vita for a tiny fee. No word yet on a similar scheme for UK users, which will have some Sony fanboys no doubt fuming.

Interface and Software
Sony have stuck loyally to their Xross Media Bar for a long time now, and while it's not a bad interface, it's more or less done away with in the PS Vita. It's replaced by a touch-focussed, colourful UI that will look more than a little familiar to any iPad fans. Applications and settings are housed in little bubbles that, while circular, have more than a passing resemblance to App icons. That's fine in our books; we'd rather a recognisable and intuitive interface that tips its hat to a rival than one that takes an engineering degree to figure out. Multiple screens full of these bubbles can be rearranged and customised through long presses, which will also be familiar to Android or iOS users.

Straight out of the box, you have access to a ton of pre-installed applications on the PS Vita, and even more if you delve into the PS Store application, where you can also download full games and videos.

For instance, you've got a multi-touch enabled web browser, that handles navigation and bookmark management as solidly as any mobile browser, Party, Friends and Group Messaging apps for getting in touch with your pals and organising online gaming showdowns, PS Trophies which also sync data to and from your PS3 trophy collection, as well as offerings from the likes of Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and Foursquare.

Media playback is great too through the Music and Video apps, with the console handling pretty much every conceivable music or video file, as well as the ability to rent or buy movies through the PS Store. The great screen makes it a joy to watch over prolonged periods, and neat features like Scene Search (splitting video files into chapter-like image thumbnails) even gives it the edge over dedicated PMP players in some cases.

Remote Play functionality returns from the PSP allowing you to access content and games stored on your PS3 through your PS Vita's screen instead. So far it's limited to select PS3 and Vita titles, and lets you also prepare downloads between your Vita and PS3 while out and about. However, we've already seen hacks showing Batman: Arkham Asylum playing on the machine, as well as Battlefield 3, meaning there's real potential for some mad streamed-gaming abilities here.

When it comes to secondary capabilities, the real let down is the cameras. At 0.3MP, you're hardly going to be taking shots to with which to fill your personal gallery with the Vita. The snaps captured are fuzzy and lack real vibrancy, and the same goes for videos captured too.

Battery life
With a giant, bright screen, quad-core processor and Wi-Fi/3G connectivity, the battery life on the PS Vita isn't all that great. Play a graphically demanding game with brightness levels at full blast and dipping in and out of online play, you'll squeeze 3 hours at a time out of the console. Scale back the brightness, avoid web connectivity and play through only a couple of songs or movies, you might stretch that towards the 5 or 6 hour mark.

It's not great therefore, and the sealed battery compartment makes hot-swapping to a spare battery not an option. You'll also have to wait a few minutes before the console fires up again once it's been totally drained, even if plugged into the mains.

It's annoyingly weedy in terms of battery life but, in the Vita's defence, it is comparable to rivals, with the 3DS producing similar results with it's 3D screen cranked up, and iPhones and iPods lasting similar lengths of time when pushed to their gaming limits. Tablets, thanks to their larger size and ability to house larger capacity batteries, are the only remotely comparable devices where the Vita genuinely plays second fiddle in terms of playtime.

Value
Arguably, the most pressing point of all; is the PS Vita worth your money? Lets take a quick look at a rough breakdown of the costs then.

The Wi-Fi console has a price tag hovering around the £200 mark, with the 3G version closer to £260. If you opt for the 3G version, you're going to have to shell out for a monthly data plan to go with it, with even the most conservative of plans kicking off at the £10 mark at the very least.

Retail games are fairly expensive, sitting at around £35 a throw, and are similarly priced when downloaded through the PS Store. Without any internal memory, you're going to have to invest in a memory card should you want to download games or movies. It's really frustrating, and borderline greedy, that Sony chose to use a proprietary storage format, meaning your SD and microSD cards are no good here. Kicking off with 4GB cards and going up to 8GB and 16GB, even the 4GB cards cost at least £15.

Though there are bundle offers available which run the cost down considerably, you're most likely going to be shelling out over £300 for a console and a couple of games then. It's not cheap, but for a hardcore gamer you're investing in genuine gaming quality here.

25 Billion Apps Downloaded on the App Store

2012-02-21T19:54:00.002+00:00

ple has announced its popular App Store is close to reaching a remarkable milestone. The company says it is close to reaching 25 billion apps downloaded.

Apple has even set up a counter where the number of downloaded apps can be watched, and by watching the 'clock', it's clear there are several apps being downloaded per minute, even second.

The rate apps are being downloaded at a rapid rate. In addition to the popularity of apps, this may also partially be due to the fact Apple is running a contest in order to celebrate the event of users downloading 25 billion apps.

Apple

Screen shot of Apple's downloaded app countdown. The App Store is about to reach its 25 billion app milestone.http://www.apple.com/itunes/25-billion-app-countdown/

The company says on the counter page, "As of today, nearly 25 billion apps have been downloaded worldwide. Which is almost as amazing as the apps themselves. So we want to say thanks. Download the 25 billionth app, and you could win a £6,500 App Store Gift Card.* Just visit the App Store and download your best app yet." (official rules can be found here, and Apple says no purchase or download is required to win)

There is a limit, Apple says only 25 entries per person per day will be registered.

According to PC Magazine, if Apple hits that 25 billion mark by the end of the month, that means the company has added 15 billion apps to its count at this time last year. PC Magazine reported Apple hit 10 billion downloaded apps in Jan. 2011.

The PC Magazine article also noted Google's Android Market hit 10 billion app downloads as of the close of 2011 and users are currently downloading approximately one billion apps a month.

Business Week highlighted the battle for mobile this past week, as there is no clear dominator in this highly critical market.

"Mobile is the biggest platform war ever," says Bill Whyman, an analyst with International Strategy & Investment.

Currently both Apple and Google are duking it out, but there are other contenders to consider, with no clear leader likely going to emerge in the near future, reported Business Week. There is a prediction by Cisco, however, that there will be more mobile devices than humans this year.

"By the end of 2012, the number of mobile-connected devices will exceed the number of people on earth, and by 2016 there will be 1.4 mobile devices per capita," a recent Cisco forecast said.

Cisco also noted the average smartphone use nearly tripled in 2011.

How many of those devices will be Apple is not set in stone, however, in the meantime, some lucky winner will receive a $10,000 gift card from the company in the near future.

Last week Digital Journal reported Apple stock hit $500 per share.

Wikipedia Blackout, yesturday

2012-01-19T17:40:00.003+00:00

The blackout, which started at 5am yesterday, was organised as a protest against two Bills aimed at stopping copyright infringement currently working their way through the US government but it was saw in the UK
Campaigners say the Stop Online Piracy Act (Sopa) and Protect Intellectual Property Act (Pipa), aimed at stopping copyright infringement by foreign websites, would actually disrupt free expression and harm the internet.
The English Wikipedia was blacked out for 24 hours. Readers who came to it could not read the free editable encyclopaedia, but instead were shown messages about Sopa and Pipa and encouraged to contact their representatives to speak out against the Bills.
Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales
And today the website sported a "thank you" banner at the top of its page, with organisers claiming more than 162 million people had seen the blackout.

What 1G or 2G?

2011-12-29T13:29:00.000+00:00

In 80s, the first 1G device (the first-generation of wireless telephone technology) came out. It was called the mobile phone made by Dr Martin Cooper.

OK, it a smartphone but it better that a answering machine

Today, have lots of 2G network. By 1985 the was only Motorola DynaTAC, Nordic Mobile Telephone and Vodafone for the UK.

10 year later after the first 'wireless telephone'. 2G come out.
In 90s for the first time,you can go on the World Wide Web with out wire from a telephone line
It uses a Router connect to telephone. The Router sends signal to area around.
This was amazing. Most people use 2G today. The UK average is 6.2Mbps

After the New Year, I will do a post on 3G and 4G

Facebook is NOT your future !! Google+ is!!

2011-12-26T16:42:00.001+00:00

It seems hard to even believe that on 15 March,Mark Zuckerberg is going to give up and shut down Facebook
The story was first reported by the Weekly World News, which has been in the past responsible for stories like "Alien Spaceships to Attack Earth in 2011", "Megan Fox is a man" and "George Clooney to Run or President".
No-one believe in Facebook closing down until Mark Zuckerberg said it to the BBC.
MySpace,Twitter or Google+ (Google Plus). Google+ is the best,will you being missing Facebook...

The most popular password is 'password'

2011-11-26T14:36:00.000+00:00

They can not go far wrong with the most popular passwords, which are: 'password', '123456, '12345678' and 'qwerty'.
The list was compiled from millions of stolen passwords online by hackers.
'Many people continue to choose weak, easy to guess passwords, placing themselves at risk from fraud and identity theft,' said Morgan Slain, CEO of internet security firm SplashData.
Simon Ellson, a security expert for anti-virus computer firm Norton, advised computer users to come up with different passwords for each account and change each one regularly.
He said: 'The biggest mistake anyone can make is using the same password for each account as you can become more vulnerable should a cyber attack occur.
'When creating a password, ensure you use a mixture of numbers, letters or symbols and avoid using personal information, sequences or repetition, as these passwords are easier to hack.
'Never store all your passwords in the same place either, such as in a personal folder in your email account called "passwords", or rely on a website to "remember login details" – always enter them manually each time.
'Norton has a feature called Norton Identity Safe which allows you to store all your usernames and passwords in the cloud, rather than on your PC for better security.'
