Google unveils social network to challenge Facebook


New York, June 29 (IANS) Google Tuesday unveiled its new social networking service to take on Facebook.
The Internet search engine introduced Google+ social network for what it called 'real-life sharing.' To be available first by invitation only, Google said its social network will meet the most basic human needs to connect with others.
Aiming to take advantage of flaws in networking on Facebook, Google said, 'Today, the connections between people increasingly happen online. Yet the subtlety and substance of real-world interactions are lost in the rigidness of our online tools. In this basic, human way, online sharing is awkward. Even broken. And we aim to fix it.''
Google said, 'We'd like to bring the nuance and richness of real-life sharing to software. We want to make Google better by including you, your relationships, and your interests. And so begins the Google+ project.''
It would offer options of networking, including 'Circles' interface for adding friends and sharing 'what matters, with the people who matter most' and 'Hangouts' interface for group video chat.
'The debut of Google+ will test whether Google can overcome its past flops in social networking, like Buzz and Orkut, and deal with one of the most pressing challenges facing the company,'' said the New York Times.
'At stake is Google's status as the most popular entry point to the Web. When people post on Facebook, which is mostly off-limits to search engines, Google loses valuable information that could benefit its Web search, advertising and other products.''
But Google+ might be already too late, the paper said.
'In May, 180 million people visited Google sites, including YouTube, versus 157.2 million on Facebook, according to comScore. But Facebook users looked at 103 billion pages and spent an average of 375 minutes on the site, while Google users viewed 46.3 billion pages and spent 231 minutes.
'Advertisers pay close attention to those numbers, and to the fact that people increasingly turn to Facebook and other social sites like Twitter to ask questions they used to ask Google, like a recommendation for a restaurant or doctor, because they want more personalized answers,'' the New York Times said.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg now richer than Google founders


BOSTON: Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's personal fortunes have soared, thanks to investment fund GSV Capital's recent stake in the social networking site which has put the Harvard dropout at a worth higher than Google founder Sergey Brin and Larry Page.
Earlier this week, GSV Capital Corp bought 225,000 shares in Facebook at an average price of $29.28 each.
This stake values the popular social networking site at about $70 billion.
Based on the new investment, Zuckerberg in turn is worth approximately $18 billion, a report in Time magazine said.
"With the new valuation, Zuckerberg has one-upped Google co-founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page , whose fortunes are estimated to have dropped," the Time report said.
This estimate makes Zuckerberg the third-richest man in the technology sector in the world, only behind Microsoft's Bill Gates and Oracle's Larry Ellison.
While Gates is estimated to be currently worth $56 billion, Ellison is the world's fifth-richest billionaire at $39.5 billion.
Earlier this year, Zuckerberg's net worth stood at $13.5 billion.
He had already shot past Apple's Steve Jobs last year and has now passed Google's Brin and Page, whose fortunes are now estimated to have dropped to $17 billion from $19.8 billion in March.

Baby jumping (El Colacho) is a traditional Spanish practice dating back to 1620 that takes place annually to celebrate the Catholic feast of Corpus Christi. During the act - known as El Salto del Colacho (the devil's jump) or simply El Colacho – men dressed as the Devil (known as the Colacho) jump over babies born the last twelve months of the year who lie on mattresses in the street.

The street performances usually involve the monkeys wearing masks, such as dolls' heads or attire to mimic humans, with the monkeys trained to act out human activities such as shopping, riding bicycles or other simulations of human behaviour. Poverty drives the handlers to exploit the monkeys in the hope of earning small change, but the effect and cruelty to the monkeys is a cause that charities such as the Jakarta Animal Aid Network are increasingly taking up.

Acer Launches Happy 2 Netbook Series in India


Acer has launched a new netbook series in India called the Aspire One Happy 2. The new range starting from Rs.15,749, will be available shortly across the country. Acer is targeting the youth, in general with the Happy 2 series, and with good reason, too. The netbooks will come in four fruity colors with a candy gloss finish, so if you are an attention hog, then it will go well with your personality. This will certainly appeal to young girls, college kids and probably Pee-wee Herman.
Available in different flavors

But, underneath all that candy coating lies some serious horse-power. The Happy 2 is powered by an Intel N570 Atom dual core processor that powers Windows 7 Starter and Android. The netbook can dual boot between the two operating systems depending on your needs. Other features include a 10.1-inch screen, 1GB RAM, 320GB hard drive, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 3.0. It’s quite light as well weighing in at just 1.25kg. Finally, the bundled battery promises 8hrs of battery life, which is fairly good (if true) for a days worth of work.

Nvidia Launches World’s Fastest Notebook GPU – GTX 580M


If you live on the bleeding edge of technology, then you might want to take another look at Alienware’s new M18x which is the first notebook infused with Nvidia’s latest GTX 580M graphics card. Oh wait, make that two GTX 580M’s in SLI, how’s that for high end? While we wont be seeing this in India anytime soon (come on Dell, prove me wrong), the good news is that the M17x will also be refreshed with a single GTX 580M along with Nvidia's Optimus technology which claims 5 hours of battery life.

Update: We've got word from Nvidia that Dell's M17x will be getting this refresh somewhere around mid-July, so I'd say hold off your purchace till then. Sadly, the M18x won't be arriving any time soon.
Bring it on!
Bring it on!


The GTX 580M officially claims the title of world’s fastest notebook GPU which is capable of running even the most demanding DX11 games. Crysis 2 with the DX11 patch should be a real treat on this monster. Along with this, Nvidia launched the GTX 570M which should make it to the smaller M15x very soon. The following are the features offered by the latest Fermi GPU:

•    Support for NVIDIA 3D Vision technology.
•    Support for NVIDIA 3DTV Play software, for connecting 3D Vision-based notebooks to 3D TVs.
•    NVIDIA SLI technology, which links two GTX GPUs for up to double your gaming performance.
•    NVIDIA Optimus technology, which enables extra-long battery life by automatically switching on and off the GPU so that it runs only when needed.
•    NVIDIA PhysX engine support.
•    NVIDIA CUDA architecture support, for GPU computing applications.
•    NVIDIA Verde notebook drivers, for frequent performance improvements and stability.


What's unfortunate is that the M18x won't be getting the Optimus treatment, which means battery life is going to suffer badly. Even if Nvidia manages to underclock the cards to a great extent, there's still two of them so I would estimate a backup time of not more than 2 hours even with a 9-cell battery.

Sony's Upcoming A77 and A65 Camera Details Leaked


Sony has been on a camera release spree and they’ve been paying more attention to their translucent mirror models. We’ve also seen their A33 and A55 models from their SLT range. Now there are new models on the way - the A77 and A65, which should be officially launched sometime in late August. The A77 will use a 24 MP APS-C sized sensor. Although not officially detailed, ISO range is expected to be between 100 and 1,02,400. The old SLT models had average electronic viewfinders, but the A77 should have an all new 3 million dot EVF which should offer better image quality. Continuous shooting mode is said to be capable of clicking 10 photos in a second and as expected, 1080p video recording will also be supported.
Won't arrive till sometime in August

USB 2.0 goes out the window and it will be replaced by the much faster USB 3.0 standard. There’s also integrated GPS support, so you don’t have to buy a separate module. Suggested pricing for the body only will be around $1000, which isn’t too expensive if you consider the competition's products with similar specifications. The bundled kit lens with the A77 will be an all 16 - 50 mm Zeiss one and it will support SD, CF and MS format cards.

Nokia Launches E6 and X7 with Symbian Anna in India


We knew Nokia would be launching the E6 and X7 sometime in June, but didn’t have any details on the Indian pricing at the time. Well, today in New Delhi, Viral Oza, Marketing Director for Nokia India Pvt. Ltd. launched the E6 for a MRP of Rs.18,679 and the X7 for an MRP of Rs. 22,829.
Best of both worlds
Best of both worlds


The pricing for the E6 seems pretty justified given the MOP should settle at around Rs. 17,000. This is also the first ‘touch & type’ QWERTY handset from Nokia, although Samsung's Galaxy Pro could claim to be the first of this kind. I think Nokia should not have too much trouble moving this off the shelves given how well its predecessors, the E71 and E72 did. Thier E-Series of business class devices have always enjoyed a rather large sum of the market share but the big question is whether or not Symbian is on it's way out?

Here’s a quick look at the specs of the phone:

  • 2.4-inch TFT touchscreen with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels
    • 3G, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi hotspot, GPS with A-GPS
    • Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP
    • 8 Megapixel camera with fixed focus and Dual LED flash
    • Secondary camera
    • 3.5 mm audio jack
    • Memory expandable up to 32 GB
    Stylish looking
    Stylish looking


    The X7, on the other hand, is more of a multimedia handset focusing on gaming and photography. However, its launch price puts it in competition with Nokia’s very own N8 which I’m sure will get the Anna update, sooner or later. What happens then? You can buy the N8 today for a street price of Rs. 21,700, which is cheaper than the X7 and also packs in a better 12MP camera with Xenon flash and HDMI-out functionality. Nokia will have to drop the price of the X7 quickly if it has to sell. And its not like we don’t have other options in this price range, in fact we are spoilt for choice. Let’s hope Symbian Anna brings more than a cosmetic change, else Android is just going to eat ‘em up.

    A little glance at the X7's specifications:

    • 4-inch touchscreen with 16M colours and 360 x 640 pixels resolution
    • 3G, Wi-Fi, GPS with A-GPS
    • Bluetooth 3.0 with A2DP
    • 8 Megapixel camera with fixed focus and Dual LED flash
    • 3.5 mm audio jack
    • Stereo FM with RDS
    • Memory expandable up to 32 GB
