2010-01-04T04:50:00.000-08:00

Aside from lunching the new ThinkPad Edge (which I failed to blog about), Lenovo has also added a new ultraportable notebook to their range with the launch of the ThinkPad X100e.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X100e features an 11.6 inch HD display and comes with an AMD Athlon Neo, Althlon Neo X2 or Turion X2 processor, a full sized keyboard (pretty good for a notebook), a TrackPoint and MultiTouch touchpad. On top of that, the Lenovo Thinkpad X100e also comes with a built in web camera, 802.11n WiFi, Gigabit Ethernet, and the choice to add in Bluetooth and WWAN.

The Lenovo Thinkpad X100e will be available very soon and prices start at just $449 or roughly about Php 21,000.

The SE Xperia Pureness

2009-12-15T18:00:00.000-08:00

Good news for all those style conscious people who have been waiting for the ‘Fashion Phone’ as Sony calls it; as the Xperia Pureness is now available. Yes! So, If you have a spare $990 you can now get your hands on a Sony Ericsson Xperia Purness Mobile phone.

What do you get for your $990? Well, not really that much. It has a monochrome 1.8 inch TFT display, a built in music player, the ability to watch videos, an FM radio, and built in Bluetooth. It’s not that really amazing for me but the “transparent” display looks pretty cool though. But it’s a fashion phone so as expected.

You can watch it on action below. Hope you’ll have fun!

Interesting Xperiment from NASA

2009-12-14T17:50:00.000-08:00

NASA has developed an airbag exclusive for helicopters. Contrasting standard airbags, this one is on the outer surface of the helicopter and it is designed to protect it in the event of a crash.

The airbag system is an expandable honeycomb cushion, which NASA have named the ‘deployable energy absorber’, and the helicopter was dropped from 35ft, you can see what happens in the video below.

Apparently according to NASA, who used a range of crash test dummies in the test, one of which was fitted with special sensors to detect damage to internal organs, all survived the crash without injury.

The Google Nexus One

2009-12-14T17:43:00.000-08:00

Google handed out mobile phones to their employees, the Google Nexus One, which is now being reported as the much rumored Google Phone that we have heard about over the last few months.

The details on the phone still remain to be pretty insufficient at the moment; it looks to be physically similar to the HTC passion, without the HTC logo, although it has been reported as being slimmer.That seems to be about it for details so far, it looks like it runs Android, and features a built in scroll wheel.

There are no confirmations yet as whether the Google Nexus One is just a Christmas gift to employees, or where this is the actual Google Phone that Google intend to release.

The Ultimate Christmas Truck

2009-12-10T18:52:00.001-08:00

"Some people get into the Christmas mood more than others, with large Christmas light displays on their houses, one Iowa resident decided to decorate his truck with a total of 3,000 Christmas lights.

The Christmas Truck belongs to Kris Marshall who was taking a generator and some Christmas lights to his church, instead of carrying out his delivery Kris decided to decorate his truck with the Christmas Lights.

According to Kris Marshall the truck only looks good at night, as apparently all the lights are just taped to the truck, which can be seen in daylight. Kris used about 50 to 75 different strings of lights, and each string has around 50 to 100 lights, so that is a lot of Christmas lights."

Bed Alarm Clock

2009-11-23T05:28:00.000-08:00

This is beyond doubt something that would really make us get out of bed in the morning. This is the Bed Alarm Clock. Well, the alarm clock is not essentially in the bed, but on the sheets and it features a haptic touch sensitive alarm, with built in speaker and all the controls are embedded in the sheet.

The clock segments are thin and hidden underneath the fabric. They consist of silicone and give the emboss feel via a slat of EPS (electroactive polymer, used for artificial muscles). When activated by electricity, the slat expands and lifts up the silicon segment; giving us the embossed numbers of the clock.

Apparently you can even wash the sheet; the silicon segment and the EPS slat are fixed in a small case. The small cases are arranged on a platen. When you want to wash the sheet, you just remove the platen with the clock components.

Improve Your PC Performance

2009-10-03T22:54:00.000-07:00

It’s amazing how people develop computers so fast and make them much faster and smaller than before. And as consumers, we really don’t want to settle on our old sluggish PC. We always seek out for higher speeds but the problem is, latest specs are always pricey and some people just can’t afford the worth. But don’t just give up yet on your old PC. You can still improve its performance till you can afford a better one. Wondering how? Here are some useful tips in enhancing computer performance.

First stop is to clean your windows registry. Now I know this sounds only good for those PC experts but there are useful and trusted programs out there that will help you do this job. This is an essential thing to do.

Next is emptying the Recycle Bin. This time I’m sure all of us know how to do this. Emptying your recycle bin gives more free space in your hard drive and thus making your PC performance a little faster.

Then remove unused programs. Those unused programs still occupy space in your hard drive leading to slow performance. It is important to uninstall these programs to have more disk space.

Lastly is disk defragmentation. When Windows stores programs on your PC hard drive it saves fragments of files to the nearest empty spaces. This slows down your PC as it has to spend time hunting down the fragments and piecing files together. Just run the windows disk defragmenter and it’ll do the rest.

There are still many ways to help improve PC performance. These are just the few but necessary things that you should do. Try these and you will surely feel the difference.

2009-10-01T09:18:00.000-07:00

Just starting to make a new site? Want to make it popular? There are actually plenty of ways to gain popularity of your site.

They will be your constants visitors to your site. If you do this, you will gain reputation little by little.

But in general, what are the ways in promoting a site (even it’s a blog or not)? Well, one common thing that site owners usually do is submitting their website in web directories.

But how does this help in gaining popularity?

To begin with, web directories are helpful means in endorsing a site particularly for websites that rely on search engines to gain guests or visitors. The site’s link from web directories help increase it’s (the site) rankings inside search engine results. Gaining backlinks from other websites is an important first step when promoting a web site. You should remember that. There is no limit as to how many web directories you can submit your site. But take note, not all web directories are free. Yes, there are paid web directories. Although as expected, you get more benefits from paid web directories. But if you’re not planning to make your site that popular, just stick with the free web directory.

Once your submission is acknowledged in a web directory, a link to your website will appear in the web directory and this will start promoting the website. So don’t forget to submit your site!
