Nvidia graphics card product announces their newest VGA, Fermi-based architecture, the GeForce GTX 465.

Works of Nvidia graphics card is paired with the power stream processor 352, 44 texture units, and ran at a speed of 607MHz core clock, with 1.215 MHz shader and 802 MHz memory clock (2.206 MHz QDR).

Quoted by ThinQ, Monday (05/31/2010) GTX 465 GeForec gravis card has 1GB of GDDR5 memory with 256-bit interface. Problem prices likely will be sold with a range of USD280.

Basically this is a GF100 VGA card with some features trimmed. Also other news mentioned that the GeForce GTX 460 will also be launched in July with 768MB GDDR5 memory at a price that is cheaper with a lower speed than NVIDIA’s GTX 465.

GeForce GTX 465 plan was officially announced at the Computex show in June and pricing info NVIDIA GTX 465 USD280

Intel Corporation has recently expanded line of Intel Core processors for ultra-thin laptops. Also known as ultraportable laptops, which have an average of less than one inch thick and weighs approximately 0.9 pounds to 2.25 pounds.
These laptops offer performance, battery life, up to a qualified connectivity.

Based on the manufacturing technology 32 nanometer (nm) Intel, the processor is 32 percent smaller size, and claimed Intel has the performance above 32 percent. This new processor is also capable of reducing power consumption up to 15 percent, so that is guaranteed to produce battery life is longer.

“Excellence Intel in 32nm technology process-k metal gate, combined with the breakthrough architecture and design, presenting a laptop thinner, lighter, and faster performance than previous models,” said Mooly Eden, vice president and general manager for PC Client Group at Intel, through a written statement, Jakarta, Tuesday, May 26, 2010.

Processor equipped with technological features Intel ® Turbo Boost this, Mooly explained, would speed up performance automatically, adjusting to the workload of users.

In addition, Intel Hyper-Threading technology available in the Intel Core i7 processors, Intel Core i5, and I3 Intel Core processor, enabling a more responsive performance when doing multiple jobs simultaneously.
Featured with Intel HD Graphics, processor capable of providing a sharper level of visual, video, and audio playback quality of HD (high definition) smooth.

“Later, more than 40 design laptop with this processor is expected to be produced by computer makers such as Acer, Asus, Lenovo and MSI, and will be offered at various price levels,” said Mooly.

Google’s latest mobile operating system Android version 2.2 which has an interesting feature. In particular Android phone, the operating system can make it become a mobile phone Wi-Fi hotspots.

The phone will be able to share a wireless Internet connection up to eight devices that support Wi-Fi. And unlike Apple’s operating system, Google’s operating system supports Adobe Flash.

Officially, Google announced the Android 2.2 (a code name Froyo) on their developer community, this weekend.

There are currently no detailed information about when Android phones will get the update. As quoted from the DailyNews, May 24, 2010, Google only mentions that the operating system will be present in “the coming weeks.”

Froyo new features, namely a mobile hotspot will be present on the HTC Evo 4G is still using the Android operating system 2.1. On these phones, users can use the 3G or 4G connectivity and shared Internet connection via Wi-Fi to eight devices.

Feel annoyed when someone calls you but they do not show their phone number? yaa, that’s really irritable, some people think that it is fun to play or do not show the phone number, but for some people it just wasting the time. Nowadays you don’t need to worry anymore.

Since the presence of phone cell with look up Directories so you won’t be too curious about the strange number, just by typing in the number in White Pages and other cell phone lookup directories is easy and free, so you can locate anyone anywhere in the world.

There won’t be only the number that will show easily, but also you can locate the people anywhere in the world. Reverse cell phone is equipped with the features of Look up Directories, where you can easily find out the location of the caller. And the other benefit is by this phone kinds of harass of terror will be revealed. Because this feature of phone gives detail information of the caller, when you find this, you will know that it’s good for you

Google search suggestion was not forever we must follow.
For according to a study, suggestions Suggestion Google through the Google features, often shifting meaning of words that is sought from the true meaning.

“Google is probably intended to help people in search, but from the perspective of public discourse, this is worrisome,” said Professor Dominique Brossard, communication experts from the University of Wisconsin-Madison is involved in this research, the university web site.

According to Brossard, suggestions Google suggestion divert its users from getting real results, to the search results that are popular.
For example when a user searches for the word ‘tiger’ then Google even offers a search for ‘tiger woods’. We want to find the word ‘animal’ and was just typing the letter ‘f’, Google even suggest ‘facebook‘.

“Sergey Brin and Larry Page created Google to filter the search results, partly based on the most popular sites. It means Internet users will be offered in the search results to that of the most popular search results than the proffered representative for information science,” says Brossard.

In research conducted since October 2008 until September 2009 that, Brossard and four colleagues from Wisconsin-Madison studied Google’s data about articles related to nanotechnology.

They found that the discussion of nanotechnology also experience blurring. Because when you type the word ‘nanotechnology’ suggestion suggest Google search for ‘nanotechnology and health’ in the top position. Therefore, most people fail to get the big picture of nanotechnology.
“By clicking on Google’s advice, you will reinforce the suggestion ‘nanotechnology and health’ to remain above. But health is only a small part of this nanotechnology,” says Brossard.
Dietram Scheufele, co-researcher Brossard, say, Google is the most popular search engine with a market share of about 64 percent, followed by Yahoo (16.3 percent).
“In addition to indexing and providing search results, Google should also have an active role to guide and direct the search through the relevant direction.”

Nanotechnology itself, generally is the research and development associated with engineering materials that have nanometer-scale molecular size (10 ^ -9).

Nano materials dealing with properties not seen in ordinary matter. Economic experts predict, in 2030 the market volume of nano materials, ranging from electronics to cosmetics, is approximately U.S. $ 3 trillion or about USD 27 thousand trillion.
