A Comp that can roll....!!!! wow...!!

TRULY AMAZING...!!

A Comp that can roll....!!!!


wow...!! 


















The D-roll Laptop is designed like an
artists tube, which contains a roll up
OLED screen and a cool slide out
keyboard, it also has a mouse and a
web camera which are used as the end
caps for the case.

D-Roll, which stands for “digital roll,” is
a concept from designer Hao Hua.
It
features one long cylindrical base from
which the screen unfurls in one
direction and the keyboard in another.

When rolled, you can use the attached straps to carry around the D-Roll in
classic purse fashion or put it in a
cylindrical case.

This could be pure science fiction but
the idea behind the D-Roll concept isn’t
too far from being possible.

Sony has already shown off rollable LED screens
which are expensive today but should
come down inprice once they start to
become more standard.

We also have SOC (System on a Chip)
computers, which are tiny computer boards that manage all the necessary
aspects of a computer (like processing,
graphics, internet and memory) on
silicon which enables smallercases and
odd sizes.
"Life is like a camera, Just focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out, just take another shot."

Facebook's App Center aims to make discovering third-party


Facebook's App Center aims to make discovering third-party apps easier:-


Facebook has built a new application discovery tool to help its users find third-party mobile and Web applications that integrate with the popular social network. The Facebook App Center, which launched this evening with approximately 600 application listings, is accessible through Facebook’s website and mobile applications.
The main App Center landing page on the Facebook website displays personalized app recommendations and a list of the apps that are popular among the user’s friends. A list of application categories in the sidebar can be used to navigate into different sections of the App Center. There is also a toggle button that can be used to filter for Web or mobile applications.
Although the Facebook App Center looks like a conventional application storefront, it doesn’t directly sell any software. Its purpose, at least for now, is solely to help users find Facebook-enabled applications. For mobile applications, it will direct the user to their platform’s built-in application store–Google Play on Android devices and Apple’s App Store on iOS devices. For Web applications, it will help the user connect their Facebook account to the third-party website.
Clicking on an application in the App Center on the Facebook website will take the user to its profile page, which displays a rating, screenshots, and other relevant information. Where applicable, the page will also have a Send to Mobile button that can be used to easily install the application on a mobile device. The button sends a push notification to the user’s phone, which the user can click through to see the desired application in their platform’s built-in app store.




According to a Facebook representative who contacted us about the launch, there are over 4,500 separate applications in existence that integrate with the Facebook timeline. Facebook gaming remains a popular pastime, with a reported 230 million users playing every month. The company also says that, as of May, seven of the top ten highest grossing iOS apps integrate with Facebook.
The company also took the opportunity to highlight the role it has played in driving mobile application sales. It has released statistics indicating that Facebook sent users to the Apple App Store 83 million times in May alone, and sent iOS users into installed applications 134 million times during the same month.
The App Center is rolling out immediately in the United States and will be made available to users in other countries over the next few weeks. It is intended to replace the Facebook website’s existing Apps and Games interface.

How to Setup Windows 7 from USB drive?


How to Setup Windows 7 from USB drive?





Step1: Create Bootable USB Drive:
  1. Insert the USB drive you intend to boot from.
  2. Choose the menu "Tools > Create Bootable USB Drive". The "Create Bootable USB Drive" dialog will popup. If you are using Windows Vista or Windows 7 operating system, you need confirm the UAC dialog to continue.
  3. In "Create Bootable USB Drive" dialog, click "..." button to open the iso file of Windows 7.
  4. Select the correct USB drive from the "Destination USB Drive" list if multiple USB drives are connected to the computer.
  5. Choose the proper writing method. "USB-HDD" is recommended.
  6. Click "Start" button to start creating windows 7 bootable USB drive.
If no errors occured in the above process, you should now be all set to setup Windows 7 from USB drive!




Step 2: Configuring the BIOS:
You should now reboot and go into the BIOS configuration to boot from USB. Instructions for doing so wildly from system to system, but generally entail the following:
  1. Reboot the system.
  2. While booting (before Windows starts loading), get into the BIOS configuration screen by hitting something like F1, F2, Delete or Escape. Hotkey instructions are generally provided on the screen.
  3. Go to the section that contains your boot devices.
  4. With your USB drive plugged in, the USB drive should be listed. If it isn’t, your system might not support booting from USB. Assuming that it is supported (as is the case with virtually all modern hardware), promote your USB drive to the primary boot device.
  5. Exit from the BIOS configuration, saving all changes.





Step 3: Booting and setup windows 7 from USB drive:
Assuming that you properly configured your BIOS and your USB drive supports booting,  Windows 7 setup should now load. Depending on the speed of your USB drive, this may take a while.
If it isn’t working, then double-check the following before making a scene:
  • Is your BIOS properly configured for booting from the USB device? (Is the USB device listed and does it have top priority?)
  • Have you correctly prepared the USB drive in step one? (Restart the procedure.)
  • Does your USB drive properly support being booted from? (Try another one!)

BCS vs BSIT: An alternative question

BSIT:




Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, (abbreviated BSIT or B.Sc IT), is a bachelor's degree awarded for the completion of an undergraduate course or program in information technology.
A Bachelor of Science in Information Technology degree program typically lasts three to four years. This degree is primarily focused on subjects such as software, databases, and networking. In general computer science degrees tend to focus on the mathematical and theoretical foundations of computing rather than emphasizing specific technologies. The degree is a Bachelor of Science degree with institutions conferring degrees in the fields of information technology and related fields. This degree is awarded for completing a program of study in the field of software development,software testing, software engineering, computer networking, web design, databases, and programming.
Many employers require software developers or programmers to have a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree, however those seeking to hire for positions such as network administrators or database managers would require a Bachelors of Science in Information Technology or an equivalent degree. Graduates with an information technology background are able to perform technology tasks relating to the processing, storing, and communication of information between computers, mobile phones, and other electronic devices. Information technology as field emphasizes the secure management of large amounts of variable information and its accessibility via a wide variety of systems both local and world-wide.

Skills Taught

Generally software and information technology companies look for people who have strong programming skills, system analysis, and software testing skills.
Students who complete their undergraduate education in software engineering at a satisfactory level often pursue graduate studies such as a Master of Science in Information Technology (M.Sc IT) and sometimes continuing onto a doctoral program and earning a doctorate such as a Doctor of Information Technology (DIT).


Subjects covered

BSc IT curricula cover a wide variety of subjects in Computer Science such as:
  • Programming languages
  • Operating systems
  • Algorithm design and optimization
  • Computer networking
  • Data communication
  • Database management systems
  • Relational database management system
  • Software engineering
  • Computer graphics
  • Distributed system
  • Web development
  • Data mining
  • Artificial intelligence
  • Multimedia
  • E-commerce
  • Computer ethics and Cyber law
  • Unix shell scripting
  • Software testing
  • Digital electronics
  • Human Computer Interaction or User Centered Design


Job Growth

In the information technology industries, employment is expected to grow faster than the average for all other occupations. Job prospects are excellent in this field compared to others. Overall employment of computer network, systems, project managers, information technology (IT), software engineer developer and database administrators is projected to increase by 30 percent from 2008 to 2018. In addition, this occupation will gain 286,600 new jobs over that period. Growth, however, will vary according to specialty. Computer network, systems, and database administrators will continue to enjoy excellent job prospects. The main growth catalyst for the information technology industry is expected to be the persistent evolution of technology and business' constant effort to absorb and integrate these resources to enhance their productivity and expand their market opportunities. Employment of computer and information systems managers is expected to grow. The computer systems design and related services industry is among the economy's largest and fastest sources of employment growth. Employment of computer and information systems managers is expected to grow between 18 to 26 percent for all occupations through the year 2014. In addition, graduates in information technology have more opportunities than other graduates as increasingly more organizations rely on computer and information technology to conduct business and operate efficiently. Many industries do not have the internal resources to effectively design, implement, or manage the products 
and systems which they require. When faced with such limitations, organizations often turn to the computer systems design and related services industry to address and resolve those limitations.






BCS:
The Bachelor of Computer Science, (abbreviated BCompSc or BCS), is a type of bachelor's degree, usually awarded after four or more calendar years of collegiate study in computer science, but can be awarded in fewer years depending on factors such as an institution's course requirements and academic calendar. In general, Computer Science degree programs emphasize the mathematical and theoretical foundations of computing, rather than teaching specific technologies that may quickly become outdated.
A Bachelor of Computer Science degree is normally required in order to work in the field of software development
