Os Google Chrome is all
Il sistema operativo di Google, Chrome Os, finalmente si mostra al mondo per mettere in luce il suo credo: velocità, sicurezza, semplicità e, soprattutto, rete. Pochi secondi per avviarsi e nessun programma installato: tutto quello che serve a Chrome Os è una connessione a internet, ed è proprio sul web che risiedono tutti i suoi programmi.
Anche se per poterlo provare con mano bisognerà aspettare ancora un anno, la breve dimostrazione nel quartier generale di Mountain View del motore di ricerca evidenzia tutte le carte nascoste del sistema operativo. Alcune già nell'aria, e altre del tutto inattese, come la possibilità di utilizzarlo solo sui computer che lo equipaggiano al momento dell'acquisto (in maniera simile ai Mac della Apple).
Caratteristiche. Il Chrome Os vive in simbiosi con l'omonimo browser e, accendendo il computer, in pochi secondi l'utente si ritrova già su internet. Le operazioni che siamo abituati ad eseguire dal desktop, come il lancio di un programma o la navigazione tra cartelle, vengono eseguite attraverso il browser, sfruttando alcuni dei servizi noti del motore di ricerca, primi tra tutti i "Docs". Tutti i documenti e i dati dell'utente, inoltre, non vengono salvati sul pc ma sulla rete: nei piani di Google questo permetterà di cambiare computer con facilità e senza dover "dipendere" dall'hard disk di quello vecchio.
Chi ha già avuto modo di utilizzare il programma Chrome, potrebbe avere difficoltà nel notare la differenza al confronto dell'omonimo sistema operativo. In caso si utilizzi più di un programma, ad esempio un videogioco e un lettore musicale, su Chrome verranno aperte diverse "schede" (o tab), proprio come avviene già adesso sui principali browser in circolazione. Durante la presentazione è stato mostrato con successo il funzionamento di periferiche aggiuntive (come le webcam), ed è stato confermato l'impegno per rendere compatibile l'os con stampanti, tastiere e mouse in circolazione. Un elemento da non sottovalutare visto che la diffusione di driver per il funzionamento delle periferiche can question the success of an operating system.
not on all computers. A little 'surprise than expected, Google merely release the source code to the programming community, denying rumors of a coming to market within a few weeks. The news was really unexpected, however, the news that the Google OS will not be downloaded on each computer, but will only work on machines fitted to the time of sale. The "Google PC" will be the netbook, the ultraportable designed to navigate, and will be marketed in late 2010 by major computer manufacturers with which the search engine has reached an agreement. No revelation on the final price, even if it was specified that it should not depart from the current figure business netbook (ie between 250 and 350 euro).
Why Chrome Os. To explain the decision to launch the new program, Google has shown that the trends taking place within the world of computing. First, the convergence of platforms, with computers that are smaller (and become netbook) and mobile phones which grow (and become smart phone or tablet PC). To this must then add the application growth "cloud based", as using the server on the Internet to operate and store data (gmail, facebook, youtube etc). The combination of these trends leads then to think about a total revolution in the computer as it is structured today, heir to a conception of science that goes back to a time when the Web did not exist. Less power in his own car in exchange for faster performance on the network in short.
announced success? When Google introduces a new product immediately attracts the attention of fans and media. Yet the challenge it faces Chrome Os is one of the most arduous and difficult to predict the success it is today. Nibble market share from Windows, now in its seventh version, is not easy, according to data from Net Applications, system from Microsoft is installed on more than nine computers every ten, while the rival Mac and Linux are the crumbs of the market, respectively, five and one percent.
The Os Google Chrome also does not point to all the systems, but only to the increasingly large niche of netbooks. And if the supremacy of the Mountain View giant is not questioned on the face of online services, you can not say the same for the programs "classics": the browser around which the operating system from Google, Chrome, has been appreciated by experienced users, but one year after publication, is installed on each computer about two percent, compared with 64% of Internet Microsoft Explorer (the units of which, however, falling steadily for some years) and the open source Firefox browser (installed on a quarter of the computer).

generation network applications social networks. "Not at all isolated, curious"
They have more friends, are more tolerant and open to diversity, continue to prefer face to face relationships with family and loved ones, but they write very few letters. Here is the picture of the generation that uses mobile phones and social networks.
think that behind the computer screen is anti-social people hiding and fearing the world? We were wrong. To say this is an American survey conducted by Pew Internet & American Life Project , a non-profit and non-party that provides information on attitudes and trends in the United States and around the world.
This time to be analyzed is the relationship between isolation and technology, with particular interest in those means that over the last twenty years have replaced the old mode of interaction. And the result is amazing. Among the more than 3 thousand adult Americans interviewed by telephone, who frequents social networking sites, blogs or use the phone has more opportunities to forge relationships. The volume of social relationships is on average higher than 12% among those who use mobile phones and 9 among those attending sharing sites or send emails. Since the last report on the topic dating back to 1985, number of people who confide their secrets but fell from three to two. But the use of technology is not related to this decrease.
Indeed, for those using the new social network contacts are more numerous and diverse than the others: only 45% of respondents to talk about important issues with people outside their family while he does 55% of Internet users. Those who have exchanged photos online, 61% chance of higher than average to have discussions with stakeholders with different political interests. Bloggers have a 95% chance of having relations with people of different ethnicity from their own. In other words, the technologies of communication are factor of social integration.
According to the new Pew Research network to help expand their horizons and break down geographical and racial barriers. It turns out for example that those who use the phone has a larger pool of contacts of 25%, who is an Internet user base of 15% and the percentage is even more for those who are a sailor or a habitual user service chat or sharing images. Furthermore, people with whom to discuss important topics are for those who use the phone number greater than 12% for those who share files or use chat 9%. Internet users are more likely to frequent bars by 45%, 69% eating in a restaurant and 42% for a walk in a public park. Who uses the new technologies are also those who practice more volunteering on a local basis, as well as youth groups and charities.
One thing that will console the many detractors of the new forms of sociality is certainly relative isolation. Today, as in 1985, the percentage of American citizens who may be considered socialmente isolati continua ad essere pari al 6%. Non aumentano dunque le persone sole, ovvero che non hanno conoscenti con i quali discutere o che considerano persone significative nella loro vita, ma si diversifica, a favore di chi utilizza tecnologie digitali, la qualità delle relazioni. Un dato rimane inalterato: quello relativo al rapporto con le persone care. Gli intervistati continuano a preferire la comunicazione faccia a faccia per quanto riguarda familiari e amici, persone che amano frequentare con una media di 210 giorni all'anno, contattare con telefoni cellulari circa 195 giorni all'anno, con telefoni fissi 125 giorni, tramite e-mail quasi 72 giorni, in chat 55 giorni e via social network 39 giorni. E la lettera? Se vogliamo la vera sconfitta dalle nuove tecnologie è proprio lei che gli intervistati dichiarano di utilizzare con una media di solo 8 giorni all'anno.
Altro dato inatteso è quello relativo ai rapporti con le realtà locali: secondo la ricerca Pew infatti chi si serve di internet lo fa indifferentemente sia per incoraggiare relazioni con persone che vivono a grande distanza che per mantenere i contatti locali. Fanno eccezione però gli iscritti a Facebook: sono loro quelli ad essere meno interessati a conoscere i propri vicini. Quando hanno bisogno di supporto, compagnia o aiuto per vicende familiari preferiscono parlarne con i loro contatti Facebook piuttosto che con le persone vicine, ma quando sono i vicini ad avere bisogno d'aiuto non esitano ad intervenire.
"The figure is part of a typical trend in human history% u2013 says Keith Hampton, the main author of the report and professor at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania% u2013 the same happened when he was introduced to the landline and felt for the first time that it was possible to obtain social support outside the circle of the neighborhood. Social networks are just another example of how man uses communication technologies to achieve various kinds of interactions with people at a distance first that we would never have reached. "

Is It Bad To Use Anti Fungal Cream On Dogs
SPACE
space space I want,
plenty of room to move sweet wound
space want to sing , grow, make mistakes and take the plunge of divine wisdom.
Area give me space
that I screamed inhuman
that cry of silence
years
I had first hand experience.
ALDA MERINI
I have already published this poem, but, among the many that have come out of the Alda sensitive magic, this is what I've read tonight.
