			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Believe me or not, its 100% true and genuine news.</p>
<p>First I would like to know, How many of you think your headphone sucks? Do you feel annoyed evertimes you have to chnage your volume with hands? I do&#8230;&#8230;.. I wish there could be such thing that can read my brain and lower the volume when ever I want. I wish my headset could read my brain and change songs itself. Well&#8230;.guess what? It&#8217;s possible now.</p>
<p>Atleast someone really care about me&#8230;lol. As I was watching TED, I found out  Tan Le, head of Emotiv Systems came with these idea that their company is developing the next generation of human-machine interface &#8212; a headset that takes input directly from the brain. During her presentation, Tan Le&#8217;s astonishing new computer interface reads its user&#8217;s brainwaves, making it possible to control virtual objects, and even physical electronics, with mere thoughts (and a little concentration). She demos the headset, and talks about its far-reaching applications. Now imagine how far we have come and this proves everything is possible if you work hard on it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How many of you think that searching in Google is safe? Do you think whatever you search is Google is stored in Google server? Yes dumbass……they are…..every keyword you search in Google is stored in Google server so that they can recommendate you with similar advertising when you visit some other website that contains Google Ads.</p>
<p>For example: If you are looking for a phone company with triple play in Google and you were not satisfied with the result. Guess what, when you go some other website and it’s not about Phone Company, it’s possible that you will see Phone Company Advertisement somewhere (if that site has Google Ads enabled) in that website. This is basically how advertisement is targeted to you through your personal search result and your geo location.</p>
<p>Now here comes a big change, since today Google has enabled SSL Search in its homepage. Now you might be curious what the heck “SSL Search means”, <em>“With Google search over SSL, you can have an end-to-end encrypted search solution between your computer and Google. This secured channel helps protect your search terms and your search results pages from being intercepted by a third party. This provides you with a more secure and private search experience.”</em><em> </em></p>
<p>To use search over SSL, visit <a href="https://encrypted.google.com" target="new"><strong>https://encrypted</strong>.google.com</a> each time you perform a search. Note that only Google web search is available over SSL, so other search products like Google Images and Google Maps are not currently available over SSL. When you&#8217;re searching over SSL, these properties may not appear in the left panel.</p>
<p>According to Google, here is what you can expect from search over SSL:</p>
<ul>
<li>SSL      encrypts the communication channel between Google and a searcher&#8217;s      computer. When search traffic is encrypted, it can&#8217;t be read by third      parties trying to access the connection between a searcher&#8217;s computer and      Google&#8217;s servers. Note that the SSL protocol does have some limitations —      more details are below.</li>
<li>As      another layer of privacy, SSL search turns off a browser&#8217;s referrers .      Web browsers typically turn off referrers when going from HTTPS to HTTP      mode to provide extra privacy. By clicking on a search result that takes      you to an HTTP site, you could disable any customizations that the website      provides based on the referrer information.</li>
<li>At      this time, search over SSL is supported only on Google web search. We will      continue to work to support other products like Images and Maps. All      features that are not supported have been removed from the left panel and      the row of links at the top. You&#8217;ll continue to see integrated results      like images and maps, and clicking those results will take you out of      encrypted search mode.</li>
<li>Your      Google experience using SSL search might be slightly slower than you&#8217;re      used to because your computer needs to first establish a secure connection      with Google.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Does SSL provide complete security?</strong></p>
<p>While SSL helps prevent intermediary parties, such as ISPs, from knowing the exact search that you typed, they could still know which websites you visit once you click on the search results. For example, when you search over SSL for [ flowers ], Google encrypts the query &#8220;flowers&#8221; and the results that Google returns. But when you click on a search result, including results like images and maps, you could be exiting the encrypted mode if the destination link is not on <em>https://</em>.</p>
<p>If your computer is infected with malware or a keylogger, a third party might still be able to see the queries that you typed</p>
<h4>How can I confirm whether I&#8217;m on a secure connection?</h4>
<p>Check to see that the URL you&#8217;re on starts with <em>https://</em> instead of <em>http://</em>. Most browsers provide a visual confirmation (such as an icon of a lock) in the address bar or in the status bar at the bottom of the page. On Google SSL search, you&#8217;ll also see a special Google SSL logo with a lock icon. In addition to this logo, be sure to also check the <em>https://</em> text in the address bar and any browser lock icons.</p>
<h4>But there are some benefit of web history enable.</h4>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you think about video your fingers starts to type <a title="YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">www.youtube.com</a> and you mouse pointer goes to search bar to search name of the video…. But why? Because money matters…. You can watch that damm video for free and some of you even know how to download and be the first person to have it on your iPods.<span id="more-46"></span></p>
<p>But …. Here comes the huge “but”!&#8230;.. what if <a title="YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube</a> charge you for just for watching video and those movie stuff….. Isn’t that the same as violating 1st amendment?? I mean in intensely????? …. Ya it is! We have been watching <a title="YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube</a> for years and years…. Just because they show it for free….. just because they show any video…. Just because you don’t have to login to watch video…… but this might not work anymore….. <a title="YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, the largest video site is playing monopoly with its growing users everyday…</p>
<p>According to two people briefed on the negotiations, YouTube is making deal with major Hollywood studios for a deal that will lead users to pay to watch movies. Here‘s goes period…… Can you even imagine that…. pay YouTube??????? R U CRAZYYYYYYY???? My friend will ask me a same question….who has been using a site call “YouTube” for years and years..…..then my final answer will be, “money matters my friends…”</p>
<p>But guess watch, after watching that dam show in History Channel about the end of the world in 2012….. here you go end of YouTube……so called pay per view…..just another way of Google to clear Netflix , Amazon &amp; Apple out of their way…..</p>
<p>Good luck guys… all this information I got is from trusted source… and here comes my anger to YouTube as a blog….I know you guys have your won attitude but let’s see how it goes….but the one thing is that, YouTube took this benefit of millions of users……. First providing everything for FREE &amp; as soon as users grow rapidly charge them $$$$$!!!&#8230;&#8230; No other way to go…..</p>
<p>This is just a blog which is not to offend anyone or anyone’s ways of thinking…remember 1st amendment???? Freedom of speech???</p>
<p>Leave your comments let’s see how many of you support or offend this action….</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since I was 7 years old&#8230;. I started using computer which<br />
many of us were not able to do. Since then I used to hear word &#8220;Google&#8221; form people&#8230;. &#8220;Where did you get that information?&#8230;.. Oh! I used Google&#8230;..&#8221; blah<br />
blah blah&#8230;. Then here you go, I started using Google&#8230;. great search engine.<br />
Which was initially  made  for college project and now search engine giant.<span id="more-18"></span><img src="http://www.populicio.us/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/yahoo-bing-google.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="271" height="209" align="right" /></p>
<p>In truth Google is founder of search in internet, that&#8217;s<br />
what I consider in my point of view. But to break that truth there have been<br />
many search engine fighting against Google. Microsoft Live (currently Bing !),<br />
Yahoo Search , AltaVista and many gillions of search engine&#8230;.. Among them Live<br />
(Bing) &amp; Yahoo were main competitor for Google but Google know that it&#8217;s King of Search Engine and will be King&#8230;<!--more-->Microsoft even tried to buy Yahoo<br />
with more that 50 % (don&#8217;t know exactly) of its share market, but Yahoo said &#8220;Get the **** out&#8221;.</p>
<p>There you go, Microsoft alone again&#8230;. Google Happy……</p>
<p>Let’s focus on main topic; why most of us still use Google<br />
instead of Bing and Yahoo… Here are some reasons:-</p>
<ul>
<li>&#8220;Google&#8221; seems like its part of our dictionary, that&#8217;s why everyone says<br />
&#8220;Google it &#8220;. Have you hear &#8220;Live it &#8221; or &#8220;Yahoo it&#8221; ??? rarely right??</li>
<li>This is huge, every time you visit Google, their page are so simple,<br />
just type Google.com and you are ready to search. But, this is huge &#8220;but&#8221;,<br />
Go to Bing.com and there you go with huge pictures everyday, that&#8217;s makes<br />
you confuse weather to search or start doing research on that pictures&#8230;And<br />
about Yahoo&#8230;too many stuff in same page&#8230;. every time  I use Yahoo<br />
for searching, I turn to read latest news&#8230; ha ha ha&#8230;. make distraction<br />
in your work!!!. So simple is best.</li>
<li>Also, domain name plays huge role&#8230;. &#8220;Google&#8221;&#8230; simple and easy to<br />
remember&#8230;.everyone knows it. It&#8217;s same as saying &#8220;hello&#8221; in phone, even<br />
though you don&#8217;t speak English, you pick up your phone and say &#8220;hello&#8221;&#8230;.<br />
but they don&#8217;t know the meaning of it, same here is &#8220;Google&#8221;&#8230;. everyone<br />
know this domain name. As far as about Microsoft, they have been changing<br />
their name all over&#8230;..you can see same search in MSN.com , Live.com<br />
(redirect) and Bing.com&#8230;.confusion where to search even though results<br />
outs are same&#8230;.For yahoo&#8230;most people know Yahoo ! as a e-mail<br />
provider&#8230;.I have seen rarely people (my friends) using Yahoo ! as search<br />
engine.</li>
<li>Again, domain&#8230;.. Google.com&#8230;. great !&#8230;.. Microsoft&#8217;s Search engine<br />
has many domain just for their one search engine&#8230;.. For Yahoo !&#8230;..<br />
<a href="search.yahoo.com" target="_blank">search.yahoo.com</a>&#8230;.. what<br />
the heck is this ????? Sub-Domain ?????? Who will take time to type those<br />
sub domain ?????? sorry but that&#8217;s true&#8230;</li>
<li>Next, people always complain about lack of  exact result in<br />
Bing.com and Yahoo !&#8230;. which they think Google delivers them a true<br />
results&#8230;.</li>
<li>Last but not least, less information&#8230;.. every time I search something,<br />
I get less results in Bing &amp; Yahoo&#8230;. For e.g. If I search my name &#8220;Moti<br />
Kharel&#8221; today (August 07)&#8230;. in Google I got 3020 results , in Bing I got<br />
172 results &amp; in Yahoo I got 770 result&#8230;. see what&#8217;s a different&#8230;.<br />
If you have to research about particular person&#8230;. I would prefer Google<br />
 <img src='http://motikharel.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </li>
<li>There are some more reasons which make one better than others, which I<br />
will talk in my next blog&#8230;.</li>
</ul>
<p>Through this blog, I don&#8217;t mean that everyone must love Google, the only<br />
point is how in some angle Google beat other Search Engine..</p>
<p>Just leave your comments&#8230;. I love comments&#8230;Also give your own view about<br />
this blog.</p>

Motorola has your new phone.

It’s called the Aura, and oh how it makes the iPhone, the Storm and other assorted smart phones look — what’s the word I’m looking for here — affordable? Reasonable? Sane?

The Aura, which was announced in October and went on sale Tuesday, costs $2,000. For that, you get a phone that has some new features, none of which cures major diseases or painful inflammation. But they do sound fancy:]]></description>

<p>Motorola has your new phone.</p>
<p>It’s called the <a title="Aura" href="http://www.motorola.com/consumers/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=bbe4acfb09f5a110VgnVCM1000008406b00aRCRD&amp;appInstanceName=default" target="_blank">Aura</a>, and oh how it makes the iPhone, the Storm and other assorted smart phones look — what’s the word I’m looking for here — affordable? Reasonable? Sane?<span id="more-9"></span></p>
<p>The Aura, which was announced in October and went on sale Tuesday, costs $2,000. For that, you get a phone that has some new features, none of which cures major diseases or painful inflammation. But they do sound fancy:</p>
<p>- Chemically etched textures and patterns<br />
- Three tungsten-carbon-carbide-coated main gears<br />
- The main bearing is Swiss-made<br />
- Protective PVD coating and mirror polish finish, same as used on luxury watches<br />
- 130 precision ball bearings<br />
- Scratch-resistant, 62-carat, grade 1 sapphire crystal display<img class="alignright" title="Motorola Phone" src="http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2008/12/16/technology/bits_motorola.jpg" alt="" width="190" height="507" /></p>
<p>I know what you’re thinking: Why doesn’t my cruddy old Nokia have more ball bearings? Well, who knows — maybe it’s got plenty. You’re still able to talk on it. But is that really enough to have you feeling up-to-date when everyone whips out their phone at a cocktail party and starts bragging about whose gears have more carbide coating?</p>
<p>I suppose this is what happens when touch screens and smartphones and embedded music players become the norm. This is what happens when entry-level phones have GPS, and WalMart starts to contemplate carrying the iPhone.</p>
<p>The ante has been raised, people. The chemically etched bar is higher than ever.</p>
<p>Oh, and here’s something else the Motorola Aura offers: a 2-megapixel camera. Seriously. That’s what you get. Two megapixels. Sure, you could get that same quality with a $59 phone. But why bother? That would be cheating.</p>
