Can you recognize a mp3 at 320kbps?

michi122513 — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 04:15:53 +0000

If you hear two sounds that are equal but with different quality, could you recognize which has a better quality?

In this Website (mp3 or not), you must choose which of the two sounds is at 320kbps, I recommend using headphones and you may be able to differentiate more accurately.

If you have a good home stereo, you will note the difference very quickly.

What if we were 100 people?

michi122513 — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 21:09:51 +0000

If the Earth population were a small community of 100 people, it would be something thus:

Sex
50 men
50 women

Population by continents
61 Asians
12 Europeans
14 Americans
13 Africans
1 Australian

Religion
33 are Christian
18 are Muslim
14 are Hindus
16 are not religious
6 are Buddhist
13 people practice other religions

Economy
41 live without basic cleaning
47 live in an urban area
6 people have 59% of the total fortune
18 live without a potable water source
18 people fight to survive with less than $1 or per day
53 people fight to survive with less than $2 or per day

Feeding
13 are hungry

Education
14 cannot read
7 have secondary education
12 have a computer
3 have connection to Internet

Health
1 adult between 15 and 49 years has AIDS
9 are incapacitated people

More data
The village uses more than $1,12 trillions in military expenses
The village uses only $100 billions in aids to the development
If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes in your locker, ceiling on your head, and have a bed for sleeping, you are richer than 75% of the whole population of the world
If you have a banking account you are one of the 30 richer people in the world

This it is an interesting summary of a presentation at TheMiniatureEarth

The message that it give us is that we must value what we have; the person who is reading this message is because she is one of the 3 people in this village that has connection to Internet and would bet that also they have a house and in his great majority they have an account in a bank. We must value what we have!

10 cents of each dollar go destined to a social project

Did you know that the founders of Google are paid $ 1 per month?

michi122513 — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 04:13:12 +0000

Well, even if it seems strange since 2007, the Google founders: Larry Page and Sergey Bin, are been paid just a dollar as salary. The reason is the fall of its shares which fell from $ 700 to approximately $ 400.

But already have gathered a fortune that I do not think that they can spend in a lifetime. Calculating it, it will make a total of 13 billion dollars each.

Now there is a growing list of those who are paid with just one dollar per month:
- Steve Jobs
- Eric Schmidt
- Larry Page
- Sergey Brin

Video ads in search results

michi122513 — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 04:09:55 +0000

The new types of ads on search results would be some small videos of 160 × 140 pixels.

They have already appeared on some search results in some countries when it is searched “phone” or “laptop” as shown in the images.

They have approximately 30 seconds in length and it is said that they have a very high CPC but this si just speculation, others suggest that it is only paid when you see the video, but the cost per view of these videos should not have much importance

Apparently this kind of ads are for selected companies such as AT & T.

What are the Websites which have PageRank 10?

michi122513 — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 22:15:03 +0000

Many Webmasters have a headache with the PageRank and they always want a point more than they have. Rarely we have visited websites that have a PR 10 because there are very few.

This is a list of Web pages that have a PR 10:

Gmail Soap

michi122513 — Tue, 25 Mar 2008 22:10:12 +0000

Can you imagine a soap branded Gmail from Google? clean all spam and… the body? This means that although the idea may seem crazy, it has already became real, the first and only soap branded Gmail was made in Russia and has the phrase “The purest soap”.

Ads by Apple

michi122513 — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 01:29:21 +0000

Some time ago I visited a website which had stranges ads, and I realized that it was Apple and was attacking Windows Vista what I found very unusual was that the ad mixed two banners to make an excellent one.

I leave the videos, one older than the other but both have the same topic.

Safari 3.1 is ready for download

michi122513 — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 00:46:54 +0000

Just before the launch of the new 3 Firefox, Apple releases Safari 3.1 which at the moment is very good compared to other browsers. Safari 3.1 is the first browser that supports the new audio tags, HTML 5 video and CSS animations.

It has a very elegant interface and a design that makes it easy to use. With this browser you can enjoy the fullest navigation of Web 2.0.

how to make an add-on compatible with Firefox 3 Beta?

michi122513 — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 04:29:47 +0000

At the time of testing for the first time the new beta version of Firefox 3 I loved especially for the speed and that made a big difference, but what made me think twice is that the add-ons did not work beacuse they were not compatible with this beta verion, but I found a way to make almost all my add-ons compatible simply using another extension.

This extension is Nightly Tester Tools, this extension will be able to run your add-ons again in Firefox 3 beta. Obviously not all the add-ons are going to be compatible, but most of them.

With this extension we have everything to make Firefox 3 beta our default browser.

The offices usually have a typical environment, but it should be made a small change when it it is designed for geeks.
Some pictures show some of them.
