Video Recording UnOfficially Arrives on iPhone
2008-01-25 10:46:00
When Apple rolled-out their wonder phone, I was wondering why it couldn?t record videos. Nearly all smartphones with camera are capable of recording videos. Apple touted iPhone as a complete multimedia device, but the lack of video recording ability always kept bothering its users.Thanks to the third party app developed drunknbass, which makes it possible to record videos on your iPhone. Currently, the application is in its crudest form and requires some polishing to reach the final version. It lets you record videos upto 5 seconds long at 15fps. The video will replay as soon as the recording is stopped, however, you can?t save the video to iPhone?s memory.The final version should be able to record unlimited lengths (until it fits in iPhone?s memory) of video at 30fps. You can download the application by registering at the developer?s website here.I?m still wondering why Apple is being so lethargic to build a video recording application. I hope they do it themselves and release it t...

Bill Gates' prediction for PCs in 5 years
2008-01-25 10:41:00
Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates says that people will see a sea change in the way they interact with computers in the coming five years.According to him, more intuitive and natural technologies-particularly touch, vision and speech interfaces-will become increasingly important to the world of computers by that time."This whole idea of what I call natural user interface is really redefining the experience," the BBC quoted him as saying in an interview."We're adding the ability to touch and directly manipulate, we're adding vision so the computer can see what you're doing, we're adding the pen, we're adding speech," he added.Gates unveiled the Microsoft Surface computer, a large table like machine with a multi-touch interface, during the interview."I'll be brave, in five years we'll have many tens of million of people sitting browsing their photos, browsing their music, organising their lives using this type of touch interface," he said.He also hailed Google for its revolutionary...

How To Reinstall Windows Without Losing Anything
2008-01-09 09:49:00
Over time, Windows loses stability. If you keep a computer for more than two years, at some point you're going to have to bite the bullet and reinstall Windows from scratch. But contrary to popular belief, you won't have to reformat your hard drive (with one exception, discussed below). The bad stuff you need to get rid of is all in your Windows folder.Before you begin, gather your Windows and application CD-ROMs. Back up your data files (just to be safe), and then clear two days off your calendar. If everything goes smoothly, you can reinstall Windows in a few hours. But you have to assume something will go wrong: You may not be able to find a necessary CD, or data won't be where you thought it was, or something will simply refuse to work.There's a difference between a repair reinstall and a complete reinstall. Though a repair (also called a refresh) will let you keep your current settings, a complete reinstall will give you a truly fresh version of Windows. Repairs are fast an...

Be Light Your Vista with vLite!
2008-01-08 22:44:00
Windows Vista from Microsoft takes a lot of resources, we all know that. So here is the tool for easy removal of unwanted components and bootable ISO creation in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking.vLite is a tool for customizing the Windows Vista installation before actually installing it. This tool doesn't use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are in their original form and protected as they would be if you install the full version only without the components you select for the removal.It configures the installation directly before the installation, meaning you'll have to remake the ISO and reinstall it. This method is much cleaner, not to mention easier and more logical than doing it after installation on every reinstall.For more info and download link, visit here. Its Free!
