Microsoft Surface Technology Launch

How many of us can imagine do all the computer world works with a touch of screen, maybe we can see it on Minority Report or film only. Nothing is impossible with Microsoft Technologies. Newly, they launch the Microsoft Surface, the first new category in surface computing that "break the traditional barrier between people and technology".

"Break the traditional barrier" here for means all new Microsoft Surface tech is the ability of the technology to recognize physical objects from a paintbrush to a cell phone and allows hands-on, direct control of content such as photos, music and maps. Play your favorite music by just dragging down the song to the player. How our life will be simple after this.

Surface new tech turns an ordinary tabletop into a dynamic surface that provides interaction with all forms of digital content through natural gestures, touch and physical objects. Imagine the image from the digital camera easily can be retrieve just by putting the device on the Surface. Lolz...

But all this technology are at new level, I can wait to see it for my self. More photo below.

What can we do with new capacity of Gmail account that come with 2.8GB storage capacity. The fact is, now each GMail account comes with a 2.8Gb (will comes more i think) storage capacity but how many among us are actually utilizing it in full.

Here’s I will show just a 1 ways on how you can turn your GMail into an huge 2.8GB online storage. That’s right, a 2.8Gb, if you have only 1 account web storage to keep/retrieve anything you want online simply just by uploading/downloading them. Imagine that you had 2 free Gmail account. Superb free storage...

Step 1. Download Gspace Extension for Firefox



Step 1: Download this nice extension first, actually this is an extension for firefox with a interface very similar to FTP application. It comes in 4 different modes (File transfer mode, Player mode, Photo mode, Gmail drive mode), with File transfer mode as default. Here’s how File transfer mode looks like.

If you don't have firefox yet, you can download it here for free

Finished the instalation and you can see this on your computer

  • Top left – My Computer
  • Top right – My Gspace
  • Bottom left – Transfer progress
  • Bottom right – Transfer status

How to Transfer

Select file(s) from Top left (My Computer) and click upload button.

Why it's Hot for me:

* Check your Gmail account with a click only
* Ability to send files to other users
* Handles multiple Gmail Account with just 1 interface


Why it's not hot for me:

* Not a standalone application, only works in Firefox

Try it for your self.

Install Gspace Extension for Firefox / Download Firefox with Google Toolbar.

For new beta blogs, adsense code can easily be added on right side bar or in the left side bar with add page element section. Not a problem to us to add the adsense code on that side.

Here unchecked the Expand Widget Template box, just scroll down until you find the code for the main colum which is:

<b:widget id="Blog1" locked="false" title="Blog Posts" type="Blog">

</b:section></div>



When you find these code, replace/change the maxwigets="1" to maxwidgets="2"
Change also the showaddelement="no" to showaddelement="yes"

The new code will look like this:

<div id="main-wrapper">
<b:section class="main" id="main" maxwidgets="2" showaddelement="yes">
