Google Maps for Mobile stars synced maps

Google Maps for Mobile stars synced maps

Before Wednesday, you could star a map as a favorite on Google Maps online, and you could star one on Google Maps for Mobile, but you could never connect the two.

A small but significant update that Google added to Google Maps for Mobile 3.3 now syncs your starred locations between the map app on your Symbian and Windows phones, and your online account.

To start your syncing, press Menu and then Starred Items. You'll need to log into your account from the Starred Items screen to start syncing favorite maps. If you're upgrading from a previous version of the maps app, you'll be asked if you'd like to sync your favorites. Say yes.

Then, you're able to mark your favorite places in one location and have it surface in the other, as long as you remain logged in. This type of syncing is ideal for quickly locating that dinner spot you're headed to, or for pulling up driving directions to or from a starred location. Sure, it might make you lazy, but it'll also keep you from wasting precious time first looking up a location and then seeking directions or a phone number.

Gwabbit

Gwabbit

I'll admit that I wasn't initially a huge fan of Gwabbit ($19.95), and it showed (I initially called it "weally wame.") Perhaps I was too harsh. This Outlook add-on scours the signature block in an e-mail and creates from it a full contact record in Outlook's address book, going far more in-depth that Outlook does when you attempt to perform the same function by right-clicking a contact's name. Business users who volley e-mail back and forth with unknown recipients will find Gwabbit to be a savvy way to fill in the digital Rolodex.

Yet while the concept is brilliant in its productivity payout and simplicity, it simply didn't live up to the hype generated from its Demo 2009 debut. Since Gwabbit's algorithm relies on a specific template in the signature block to populate its information, it's only as good as the contact is conventional. If a contact bunches information onto a single line, Gwabbit may populate a single data field with all the information. If you amend the record, Gwabbit may try to undo your changes the next time it senses a contradiction between your entry and the matching e-mail message.

Gwabbit has also had trouble ignoring the "all clear" message tacked to the bottom of each e-mail by AVG Antivirus Free. I realize it's a problem that will bypass most, but it's an imperfection nonetheless. Finally, Gwabbit's 5-second delay between a cursor hovering on a message and its new-contact pop-up note has more than once come at an inopportune moment, forcing me to close the pop-up to get back to the reading or e-mail management from which the (admittedly not very serious) interruption.

Yet for all my bellyaching on the points where it fails to work as smoothly as I'd like, it does remarkably well overall, and has unrealized potential. More importantly, it offers a simple, unique solution to contact management that you barely have to manage at all--and one that saves time and typing. The 14-day trial will only save 20 contacts total, but it's enough to give you a sense of the program. If your address book is essential to your business, Gwabbit could be a useful little sidekick.

Xobni

Xobni

With its hint of bubble gum visuals, Xobni is a free Outlook add-on that quickly searches through your e-mail. Just as Xobni's name comes from spelling 'in-box' backwards, so does its search philosophy, which is all about contacts. Finding contacts and message subjects routinely takes a fraction of Outlook's chugging.

Without ever using up more than three-quarters of the reading pane (and often much less when you collapse it,) Xobni can reply, forward, or open a message, or even a file. Its ability to throw in public information scraped from Facebook, Skype, LinkedIn, and Hoovers can add extra context. Dataheads will be intrigued by the stats analyzing your e-mail relationship with the contact, including the rank assigned to your most frequent correspondents. The analytics haven't figured much into my usage, but the Facebook pictures and quick-find searching do.

ICT and Society

Computer generation

First generation (1946-1958)

-Huge, slow, expensive, and often undependable
-1946, Presper Eckert and John Mauchly used vacuum tubes instead of the mechanical switches of the Mark I.
-The ENAIC used a thousand of vacuum tubes.
-ENAIC gave off so much heat that they had to be cooled by gigantic air conditions.

Second Generations (1957-196)

-Made by John Bardeen, William Shockly and Walter Brattain.
-Transistor used to relay and switch electronic signals.
-Transistor was faster, more reliable, smaller and much cheaper than vacuum tube.( 1 transistor = 40 vacuum tube)
-Its also conduct electricity faster and better , gave off virtually no heat.

Third Generation (1965-19700

-Discover by Robert Noyce of Fairchild Corparation and Jack Kibly of Taxes Instrument.
-Replacing such large number of transistor on a single chip.
-It also carries out instructions in billions of a second and more advance.

[ ... ]

Forth Generation (1971- now)


-Putting millions of transistor onto one single chip ,more calculation, and faster speeds could be reached by computer, because electricity travel about billionth of second.
-It significant impact on our lives is the inventation of the microprocessor.
The microprocessor was made to be used in calculation, not computer.

Fifth Generation (present and beyond)

-The fifth generation of computer are technologically advance and are still development to become more efficient.
-Fifth generation have grown rapidly including many other modern computer devices such as:
*Silicon chip
*Processor
*Robotics
*Virtual reality
*Intelligent system
