Nokia Lumia 1030 could be the iPhone killer ..

WASHINGTON: As Software giant Microsoft is planning to launch the successor of Nokia Lumia 1020, now new report recons that the Lumia 1030 will be the iPhone killer as device popped up online alongside iPhone 6.
The Nokia launch the Lumia 1020 in 2013 boosting a camera up  to 41 megapixel. Now Microsoft is eyeing to launch the device’s successor which is expected to have the same camera but boosting up the specs.
The device is also expected to go against Apple iPhone 6 and also expected to be the company’s flagship device of 2015.
The device leaked with a code name Microsoft McLaren. A huge batch of images of the Lumia 1030 have emerged online, giving us an idea of how the handset will look.
Lumia 1030 is captured side-by-side with Apple iPhone 6 in photographs. These photos show a phone that’s a fair bit larger than Apple’s handset.
The appearance of the iPhone 6, along with a label visible on the handset that says ‘prototype property of Microsoft Mobile’ without any mention of Nokia, shows that this handset it relativity Now it's your choice...

Apple Has A Plan To Stop Texting & Driving...

I don’t have to tell you that texting is incredibly popular and addictive right now. People use their phones to text everywhere – in the bathroom, at the dinner table, at the restaurant, standing in line, in class, and perhaps worst of all, behind the wheel. While texting usually doesn’t pose a risk to anyone’s life, it certainly does when one chooses to engage in it while they’re driving down the road. It’s dangerous for themselves and dangerous for everyone else on the road. This is why some big name phone carriers, such as AT&T, are doing all they can to get their subscribers to pledge not to text and drive. But phone carriers can only do so much. Apple knows that more and more people are texting and driving, and they want to do something to combat it. Whatever your opinion on the issue, statistics are hard to argue with – and that is a pretty high statistic. Apple’s patent is for a program that will basically shut down your connected phone while you’re driving. Many believe this will work in conjunction with CarPlay in the future. While I’m all for stopping texting and driving, part of me wonders how Apple is going to distinguish who is driving vs. who is riding in the car and using a smartphone. While some will praise Apple for doing this, others will surely raise their voices in complaint saying that people should be able to use their phone for whatever they want in their own vehicle. What do you think? Let us know in the comments section below! And yes, I’m pretty sure the GPS on your phone will still work even if you’re driving.

Chrome Remote Desktop makes its way onto Android:-


Chrome Remote Desktop makes its way onto Android:-

                                                    Need to access your Windows desktop while you’re sitting on a bus 3,000 miles away from work? Just launch Chrome, and you’re good to go! Earlier this week, Google released Chrome Remote Desktop for Android, and brought VNC to the masses. This tiny 2.1MB app allows your phone or tablet to connect seamlessly to Chrome on a PC, and completely control your desktop without having to bother setting up your own VNC server. Of course, having remote desktop software built into Google’s Chrome is more than enough to cause privacy advocates to raise an eyebrow, so think it through before you install.                    If you’d like to try this out for yourself, head on over to the Google Play store, and download the
Chrome Remote Desktop app. As long as you’re running Android 4.0 or above, you should be able to run it on any device you have lying around. Next, simply install the Chrome Remote Desktop app inside of Chrome, and follow the on-screen configuration instructions. From then on, you can remotely access your desktop on your Android device without having to manually find and enter your network information.

History of Computer technology.


Main article: History of computing hardware:- Devices have been used to aid computation for thousands of years, probably initially in the form of a tally stick The Antikythera mechanism, dating from about the beginning of the first century BC, is generally considered to be the earliest known mechanical analog computer, and the earliest known geared mechanism.. Comparable geared devices did not emerge in Europe until the 16th century. and it was not until 1645 that the first mechanical calculator capable of performing the four basic arithmetical operations was developed. Electronic computers, using either relays or valves, began to appear in the early 1940s. The electromechanical Zuse Z3, completed in 1941, was the world's first programmable computer, and by modern standards one of the first machines that could be considered a complete computing machine. Colossus, developed during the Second World War to decrypt German messages was the first electronic digital computer. Although it was programmable, it was not general-purpose, being designed to perform only a single task. It also lacked the ability to store its program in memory; programming was carried out using plugs and switches to alter the internal wiring. The first recognisably modern electronic digital stored-program computer was the Manchester Small-Scale Experimental Machine (SSEM), which ran its first program on 21 June 1948. The development of transistors in the late 1940s at Bell Laboratories allowed a new generation of computers to be designed with greatly reduced power consumption. The first commercially available stored-program computer, the Ferranti Mark I, contained 4050 valves and had a power consumption of 25 kilowatts. By comparison the first transistorised computer, developed at the University of Manchester and operational by November 1953, consumed only 150 watts in its final version.[
