WiMAX appears to be an interesting alternative to broadband connections, as it has registered positive results in different parts of the globe. In this case we will learn some important facts about its use in Latin America and the United States.

In the case of the South American continent, WiMAX networks have allowed an increase in broadband connections in different countries. This is because an alternative that leads to a large number of users, taking into account the lower installation cost and time involved, when compared with other technologies.

In South America, the percentage of population with broadband connections is at around 15%. However, there are nations that have lower penetration, for example, Brazil has only 3%. Even in the country with the strongest economy in South America 40% of urban centers do not have the necessary infrastructure for broadband connections.

According to suggest the main drivers of this alternative, WiMAX can make a big opportunity for broader dissemination of broadband connections, thus accessing more of the population in digital television, IP telephony and many other possibilities that open up speed network connections.

Apparently, the leader in the development of this technology in Latin America estimated over a million WiMAX broadband connections in subsequent years. One company that is addressing this challenge is Alvarion, which specializes in the deployment of networks under this technology.

Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru and Venezuela are among the countries in which the increase in WiMAX options can be seen in more concrete form. In them, networks of this kind are commonplace, when even some time constituted an insignificant percentage of the market.

In the U.S., mobile WiMAX

Logically, the United States needs in terms of broadband connections are totally different compared to those recorded in Latin America. Given this, the WiMAX deployments in North America aimed at leveraging the connectivity of movable type.

Thus, the signature DigitalBridge Communications will start providing mobile Internet services in the town of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, through the use of WiMAX networks. Thus, in this city and its hinterland can be accessed without limitation wireless connections lead to lower costs.

The infrastructure for the development of this network, which allows the establishment of broadband connections to access voice, data and video in motion at any point in the catchment area, was developed by Alvarion. However, this is an open network, so other companies may participate in a project’s future.
We conclude that broadband connections and may be increased by developing new technologies such as WiMAX networks and other options that are still under investigation.

Email is one of the most valuable tools of the internet and, of course, the most commonly used for personal, family and the business world.

It will be very difficult to explain to the younger generation the world was like before the Internet but will be even harder to tell how we made do before we could send and receive messages through our email.

It will be very embarrassing for a half century grandmother the task of explaining to their children what she, in turn, learned from their elders about the laconic telegrams, letters, handwritten on paper and delivered four or five weeks after production , documents sent via fax in order ….

If email is so important to our lives it is worth learning some simple techniques to make it more profitable. We would, therefore, offer the following advice for our messages to achieve the objectives we have at the time of writing and sending:

1. Use appropriate language according to the message you sent. If the recipient is a friend, may have a familiar tone informal. But if this is a process or a communication addressed to a company, you must write with the seriousness that the case requires.

2. Avoid spelling mistakes because, whether in email or other document, speak ill of you. Say what you will write errors to speak of who wrote it. Some email providers and word processors offer the option of a spell checker, but much attention: they have not improved and pecan finish both excess and deficiency. In some cases, they go errors (e.g., words do not branded) and sometimes they should not fixed: for example the names of people and cities when they are not very common.

3. Be clear when writing. Not many laps because the internet user always have little time and is certainly in a position to invest in trying to guess what he writes. Clarity saves misunderstandings annoying and uncomfortable.

4. Remember what that “good, if brief, twice good”. But neither short pass to the point of becoming laconic. Your friends deserve a few lines from time to time.

5. In the Subject field should be as specific as possible in order that the receiver knows what his message is even before you open the mail. If you write to invite to a meeting not only write “Reunion” because a person may be being invited to several meetings at once. More accurate would be: “Call a meeting to discuss the new budget”

6. Section C.C. aims to write addresses to which the message will arrive in addition to the primary recipient. The message will reach every person whose address was written in the two fields “To” and “CC” and their addresses can be seen by all.

7. If you want to keep the addresses of the contacts were made public, something desirable to protect individual privacy and personal information as important as their email, use the BCC field (Hidden Carbon Copy). In this way each recipient will receive your message without it appearing in other directions. Each person considered as a single copy, making it necessary to warn that the message has been sent to multiple recipients.

8. It is advisable not to send mail to people who do not know or they do not expect communication from us. Besides being impolite is an intrusion into the privacy of individuals and there is a risk that our account is declared as “spam” and each message coming from it go directly to the recycle bin.

9. Do not forward all messages that arrive. Make a careful review, because some emails containing foul language and insulting, obscene or grotesque photographs and forwards who is seen as such: a rude and vulgar person.

10. Beware of the chains: today inboxes are filled with messages that ask or offer something and are usually rejected by those receiving.

For now we have given very useful recommendations but there’s more. So we invite you to read the second part of this article. Be well and enjoy a pleasant and lengthy experience in the ways of cybermundo.

This is called in Spanish the kind of software that allows working in our computer without using the mouse and keyboard. It is a true wonder today, although it is not a program that serves to completely replace the “means of capturing information or command processing on the PC. However, I think this kind of software was the first major step forward in human-computer integration, which will be achieved sooner rather than later, humankind entering the first black hole of technological and scientific development. Why make a computer understand what is commanded by voice and run the same commands, it is like to start entering our intelligence and spirit on that machine full of chips that we could make only move at the point of click.

So far voice recognition has been used very partially and has almost been reduced to a kind of auxiliary word processor used in most of the time, by people linked to the areas of health and law. But new advances in technology that will make this kind of software is going to invade new areas to achieve, very likely in the near future, that any operation performed on a computer is ordered directly by the human voice. At present, for example, we already have voice recognition software that can interact with web browsers, which, as it becomes more widespread and permanent feature of these browsers, it will produce a revolution similar to that which will bring implementation of the Internet II.

Currently, everyone who can not conceive of life without a computer we could know the most famous programs in the genre in question, which are, undoubtedly, the IBM Via Voice, Dragon Naturally Speaking Preferred, the Free Speech 2000 Philips and the L & H Voice Xpress Professional. Recently, all produced and brought to market their latest updates. The accuracy achieved by these updates going from 90% to 98%! If all this we add the possibility, while traveling, for example, to store anything that you think the PC computer later, in a small digital recorder, start to step on land that we still seem like science fiction, but that incredible however are now a reality.

From here we will make possible programs that transmit orders to your PC directly from our brain.

Good luck to the new Mayor of Gigante: I can not fail to wish my good friend Wilson Pena, who has been appointed the new Mayor of Giant, the best of luck and my sincere congratulations on this well deserved appointment. God guide you to get to our beloved people of this huge crisis that left the mayor recalled. Count on our advice when needed and our unconditional support.

The feeling of security must be our main home. That’s why it’s not wrong to add any alarm system in our home. Maybe we do not have a budget to entrust our security to a private company.

So today I propose establishing a fairly economical and home alarm, you can make yourself. This is a laser alarm will explain as you can through a video. Are you ready?

The video is taken from Kipkay, a website where you upload videos explaining the development of various devices made with laser. A very interesting website for those who are a few hands.

In the video, you can find the tools needed to produce this little alarm. And the steps to produce it without any problem.

Anyway we found a post where in Taringa for those who do not understand the English and explains the steps necessary materials in Spanish.

I’ve been reading comments from people who have tried and seems a little laborious. But I think it is quite interesting because the savings achieved.

The texting is a phenomenon typical characterological digital society whose precise definition is the abuse of text messaging via mobile phones that can compete or disclosed in a number of structural problems both in a group as an individual. It is not the sending of SMS itself, but the little control that can be exercised regarding the use of this digital medium to communicate openly and honestly in a much more traditional society. Therefore, the uncontrolled use of short messages through mobile phones, the company succeeded in creating new digital forms of appropriation of electronic and distance relationships that are rooted in a series of inconvenience they feel about it when there is a impaired social relationships or personality around this exaggerated form of special use of a mobile phone service. The risks of texting begin to become evident in certain habits of the population engaged in using electronics, not compete directly with digital ethics rule, much less logic to achieve a net programmatic behaviors label or at least structured behavior.

For example, when a person is using the mobile while driving can cause a fatal accident to himself and to others, which sadly has become one of the most significant causes of accidents in traffic apart from the intake contemporary irresponsible alcohol. Another way in which texting has contributed to a gradual disintegration of interpersonal relationships within these days is the proliferation of people prefer to communicate effectively with permanent sending short messages with contacts in their degree of preference.

The establishment of patterns of personality in this regard is due exclusively to the unrestricted sense of personal relationships that a person has to their particular groups of association.

The texting is thus a behavior that has generated extremely current digital society, because it is a form of virtual interaction that is enduring and leading, in many cases, an institution not in very good form of communication through mobile telephony. These have achieved that this time the aforementioned phenomenon is both considered a pattern of play typical of those who depend on a very worrying for electronic goods.

Many people know what is a unicycle about, a kind of mechanical construction, which is driven only by the legs of person and has only one wheel for movement. Very popular between some artists such movement that make us vibrate with their acrobatics and feats in one of these gadgets in either a street or an enclosed area like a circus, unicycle has moved into the technological line. This thanks to the inventiveness of the Japanese company Honda Manufacturing of miscellaneous items, which has made the Unicycle has put aside the kinetic energy produced by the human body to be operated electronically totally. This invention has known by the name of some Asian Minisegway, referring to a building electric unicycle U.S. electronic component is a nice effect that looks like a unicycle with its respective wheel chair and his only. Only the action of a properly adjusted engine makes the U3-X, Honda, like its original design name, one technological marvel of the moment.

Greatly ergonomic, the electric unicycle Honda U3-X allows people who use it to travel fully seated, which has already taken a step forward compared to U.S. Minisegway cannot have this application. Besides this great comfort, the device calculates the weight of the person and his natural position to provide further support to balance in which to sit, so that when operating this device, the inclination of the body allows greater mobility of unicycle may well be that any pate by its constitution which does not occupy a large space when stored.

Its weight of 10 kilos is one attachment that make it quite favorite among the new users, so that his physical constitution is based on a pair of wheels, giving the necessary support for easy and safe. Ideal for people suffering from extreme fatigue in the legs, the pitch of the U3-X itself is very reliable and therefore allows the person not to force his lower extremities, but was let fall freely.

One salient feature of this device is that by its constitution at different angles of balance, allows them to feel as if you were standing because the gaze remains high due to body position. Therefore, this is one of the “gadgets” more ingenious than they deserve a very special place in the lobby of the technology.

One hundred years ago, on 21 September 1909 in Salzburg (Upper Austria), the young Albert Einstein presented publicly for the first time his theory of relativity, published in 1905.

This work, which revolutionized physics, were received at the time rather coldly by his colleagues.

In the school gym Andrae, which conducted the meeting of researchers in natural sciences and German doctors, the famous formula E = mc2 (energy equals mass times the speed of light squared) did not cause a sensation. These did not realize its scope.

Following the intervention of Einstein about the nature of matter and radiation, one of the most renowned physicists of the time, the German Max Planck, who knew Einstein’s work since its publication in Berlin, gave a lively discussion among that public of future Nobel laureates, receiving end Einstein in 1921.

Despite the discussions, Einstein, only 30, who was competing in his first Congress, was on the verge of international recognition.

Used previously in the Bern patent office, had just been appointed professor at the Swiss capital, then it was in Zurich. Then continue its work in Berlin before fleeing the Nazis in 1933 for the United States.

While the mobile versions of our computers play an ever growing share of IT market, it is clear their initial poverty in terms of sound equipment. In order to explore some possibilities to overcome them, we wanted to extend our tests to the major sound cards for their being in one of the most established manufacturers in the niche. Are tested by the portable version of the Audigy 2 ZS, Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Notebook, using a PCMCIA port and the external counterpart of the Live! 24-bit USB port on the Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit External. They provide the same level of performance than their PCI equivalents?

InFocus has introduced a monitoring system 2.1 / multimedia for small budgets with iPod dock and integrated USB sound card.

This is a product seems well designed for its target people who use software audio or video to their homes in areas counted. This is a multimedia package “upscale” (as opposed to multimedia speakers consumer brands), permitting both audio monitoring of his computer (through the digital / analog converter integrated USB) and listening his iPod. The system includes two satellites plus a subwoofer, all small, it suffices to connect with USB to his computer to play sound from it. The dock allows any iPod to receive, to ensure recharge, file transfer and diffusion through the speakers. A remote control accompanies everything. This allows not only the volume control, but also remotely control the iPod. The XS also features an analog input for connecting an additional device (like a CD or DVD). Note that the remote magnetic ranks simply “stuck” at the foot of a wall.

The satellites are equipped with two lanes of the same tweeter as the speaker of the line Bb Focal woofer and a medium of 8 cm. The box is equipped with a 16.5 cm.Le XS system will be distributed “in a first step” by the APR (Apple Premium Resellers) in France, Belgium, Netherlands and Switzerland suggested retail price of 500 €. The XS is compatible with Mac and PC.

After the first security packages offered by Microsoft named Windows Live One Care before are failed to attract customers; the marketing is not continued. Looking to such problem; Microsoft has launched the Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) that is hoped it can make a deal to create the new great protection from viruses, Trojans, rookits and spyware. So that it can be a good change from the failure before.

The MSE is available free to be downloaded in the Microsoft site. It is hoped can be more popular for it can automatically updated after the first download by the customers. The existence of the MSE, however, is still doubted by the rivals; whether it can well win the market and workable competition between other anti-virus players or not. A security firm Symantec said that it is still lack of the common needs of consumers that nowadays need more about firewall protection, anti-spam protection, web protection and identity safeguards.

A security firm AVG also said that Microsoft has to make perfect the security so that it can automatically diagnose the problems and infections in the computer then well make it recover. The 75,000 free trial versions of MSE have been spread to US, Brazil, China and Israel; and it will be worldwide this year. Will it well fix security problems? Let’s see next.
