The history that we have today is precisely Gizmotika history. This means you will have to look back a few years, those times now seem prehistoric technology, but they really are the beginning of what we know today. I’m going to talk about one of the largest in the world of computing, and sure some of you already know that we are referring to Intel, which today is still the most important company in the field of chips, and the news day if, and day out with their releases.

Returning to the subject is that right now 40 years ago that Intel created the first chip that would know in the modern era. At that time was in 1971 and was called Intel 4004. With it, nothing would ever be the same, and just because of that year, and in this invention have today most computers on the market, at least all those that work with Intel.

At that time, to give an idea of the “technological prehistory,” that would be the big thing rolled to 4 bit technology with a 10 micron process, and with 2300 transistors with 740 KHz frequency.

If you are looking for an alternative for Christmas for a good computer, you may need to sign up then called HP Follie has to be among the list of options. Of course, think that the dimensions of this device are reduced, which means it will be the first bet of HP in the field of ultrabooks.

The HP Folio 13 comes in two configurations: an Intel 1.4GHz Core i3 and another with an Intel Core i5 1.6GHz to 2.3 GHz and turbo mode.

Download Tunesque
Anyone interested in applications for iPhone, Mac, iPhone or other Apple device is very common to go directly to the iTunes Store. But search the iTunes Store could be quite an ordeal for anyone who is just getting acquainted. And if they are advanced and experienced users on the subject, let me not lie, that searches the iTunes Store will become very slow.

Whether you’re looking for applications, songs, albums, podcasts, TV shows, movies, ebooks, etc, etc, I recommend you give it a chance Tunesque.

Tunesque is a program to search the iTunes Store in a much easier, but above all much faster.

One of the main advantages of Tunesque is installed on the system menu bar, which means that we have available at any time you need it.

IPad newspaper
It’s not great news that there is an application to read the newspaper on the iPad, the curious or the reason why today I want to comment on this application is that the application is to read The World Sports on the iPad.

But the curious thing is that to read El Mundo Deportivo on the iPad will have to pay the amount of 0.79 euros per unit or you could also pay a fixed subscription fee … the interesting thing is when we realize that the news of El Mundo Deportivo are available on the website of a free.

So, there comes my question to all of you: would you pay to read the newspaper on the iPad with an application, whereas this is free on the web?

While it is true that this application for the iPhone will have the opportunity to read the newspaper offline, which is the only advantage of paying the money above.

Google + for iPhone

plus google iphone 300×176 How to install Google + on the iPad?

As you might have noticed, two or three days went out the application of Google +, but unfortunately, just as with the Facebook application, these do not work or work on the iPhone, so all the people we love Google + in iPad have two options: wait for the launch of Google + application for iPhone or “force” to Google + works on the iPad.

If you choose the first option, then you can stop reading right here. But if you are interested in the second option and know how to install the application from Google + on the iPad then continue.

First of all we need to have the program installed on your computer the iPhone Configuration Utility. We must also be downloaded and installed the application from Google + (also in the computer). Then open the configuration utility of the iPhone, the iPhone is connected, then select the tablet and select “Applications” – “Add” – find the path of the application of Google +, then press “install” and go.

Of course, the application of Google + on the iPad will not look as big as we wanted, but we can use FullForce to view full screen.

Tablets in schools
I found a story that caught my attention and not because I’m not wait for him, but because I think there are some points that are not being taken into consideration as it should.

The news mentioned that talks in South Korea estimated that by 2015 schools tablets and digital books to replace textbooks.

This strikes me as very good news, because it is something you see coming and actually think will be beneficial for all students (whatever their level of schooling).

What I call attention is that I do not think that some teachers have the capacity to enter into this digital technology was complete. Not that I am against the teachers, let alone that this generalization, which if you think it’s very important that adequate training for teachers.

On the other hand, I doubt that there is the company will be the provider of tablets for schools in South Korea that will change textbooks for tablets and digital books?

There are several definitions in this regard:

In general many has defined “rules of behavior regarding the use of technology.”

But according to Eduteka:

Digital citizenship can be defined as rules of behavior regarding the use of technology. In order to understand the complexity of what comprises digital citizenship and problems of the use, misuse and abuse of technology, we identified nine general areas of behavior that must conform.

1. Netiquette: (label) standards of conduct or manner of proceeding electronically.
2. Communication: electronic exchange of information
3. Education: the process of teaching and learning about technology and its use
4. Access: full electronic participation in society
5. Commerce: electronic buying and selling goods and services
6. Responsibility: responsibility for events and actions in the electronic media.
7. Rights: the freedoms of all people in the digital world
8. Ergonomics: physical well-being in a digital technology world
9. Risk: (self protection): precautions to ensure security in the electronic media.

However it is the correct definition is that everyone in one way or another are part of this digital ecosystem that we consume every day and makes us complicit in their whims.

There are many reasons why you need to have the email to fax service and one of them is that you are able to send and receive messages in any part of the world. This efax system works like the email. Indeed, your messages are received as attachments on your emails and are in file formats such as PDF and TIF. This means that you can access the document, read your message and respond to it conveniently. Another reason why you need the efax is that it saves on the cost of fax services.

In the conventional fax system, you have to buy a fax machine, printing materials, cartridge ink and other accessories. This is definitely quite costly since you have to print every fax message received. It also takes time to print these messages. In order to save on the cost of your fax system, you need to get upgraded to the email to fax service. This operates the same way you operate your emails and messages are send and received fast.

With the email to fax service you do not have to print the messages and you can retain, store and access them from digital media such as flash disks and CDs or simply from your online efax account. The digital edge technology is streamlining the use of resources and perhaps saving on use of paper, will minimize on the depletion of natural resources such as forests.
