Userful Internet Based Tools.

One of the internet based tools I found was very interest it's called Google fight. This site allows you to enter words and the fight begins when the matches start poping up. And the winner is the one with the most results.

We can Use that again

Clean energy made from what we call waste. Scientist have come up with a material that will enable us to use the waste from generators and cars. This new material called thallium-doped lead telluride combined with electric generators and water instead of gas turns the waste into electricity immediately.

Scientist believe over half of the gasoline's energy would lost in combination with a device with thallium-doped lead telluride material. This would reduce wear and tear on the car. The best thing about the thallium-doped lead telluride material is no pollution.

Formally the most effect commercially known material was thermoelectricity. I guess we can all say change is not such a bad thing.

Thirsty....

We all need a break from the bills that we feel are too high. Mayor Bloomberg is install wireless water meter that will give more of an accurate reading. New Yorkers will have there meters read at least four times a day instead of quarterly. The wireless water meter readers could show a reduction of bills up to 90 million dollars citywide.

The meters will be connected to transmitters intertwined with other meters that then send data throughout the city. This will then allow customer to receive accurate usage and billing.

I think this could be a good thing. They install the meters at no cost to you. The meters not only track your water usage it can also alert you or your landlord of potential leaks. Seems Mayor Bloomberg might have a winner.....

BLACKOUT!!!!!!!

A new cable wire will be put into Manhattan's financial district. Why is this so important? Only because it will still be able to give out power during those notorious New York blackouts. It will work in a way that linked-up power stations will be able to back the other it a failure was ever to occur.

With over 60,00 amps running through the cable at once it is bound to get hot. This is why scientist will cool it with liquid nitrogen. More power can run through this cable than any copper cable it's size.

The last blackout that occurred cos over 6 billion dollars. With a technology set into place such as this will help save alot of money. Putting a cable in the financial district seems to be a great idea right about now. The last thing the world need is to lose track of our finances.

I always feel like someboy's watching me.......

I could feel this way because it's possible. Do you have the feeling you're being watched? In this day and age cameras are everywhere. In stoplights to prevent red light runners. ATM's have them for simple surveillance. In every store we go in we are monitored if a camera is in the building. We have an energy concern, but billions of hours of footage are shot of us in the US daily.

This is not all bad, it's just a privacy issue with me. Footage being caught all over could help solve a crime or bring a little girl back home. That fender bender could be resolved by one looked at the tape. As with everything it has it's pros and cons.

Who's to say the next computer we by won't already have some sort of hidden surveillance embedded into the hardware. It's hard to tell because who monitoring the monitors. With this in mind the next time you think you're alone maybe you're not.

Surveillance Society: New High-Tech Cameras Are Watching You

Firefox 3

We will soon have a Firefox 3. It will gives us new features such as improved security, matching your searches from history, and an overall easier access to browsing. Before the launch of Firefox 3 there will be some rigorous testing of it's performance.

Who could ask for more from a web browser than better controls to monitor what your kids are doing and malware protection. They have lots of new add-ons such as Twitter. If you're in for the ease of access Firefox 3 is for you.

Although the first version as already hit IE 8 is out there and it seems they will still be competing. The first version is just a tast of what will soon come out. Try it as we always do and let me know how you like it.

Cell phones not enough anymore

Google has unleashed another project. This one is called Google Voice. It was originally put together in 2007, but it never went anywhere. To get the service you would need a Grand Central account. Grand Central is a free local telephone service that routes all linked phones to one phone number or your Google site.

Google Voice implements a similar service only with more features. It allows you to pick a available number number from the current database. No matter where you are all linked phones will ring at the same time. If you where to answer it the option of accept or deny would be given. You can also record your conversations but a prompt will be heard to alert both parties.

Don't worry you can't send text but you can SMS. Don't worry about your daytime minutes but, you will be charged for international calls. This all seems great but, do you actually want your personal conversations captured via internet. A voice mail you just forgot to erase could come back to haunt you. It may sound like a good idea now but, is it really.
