21.1.2008 Office 12 to Feature 'Super Tooltips'
Tooltips, those little yellow popup boxes that provide information on a button or menu option, have become an indispensable part of the modern user interface. Now, Microsoft is looking to extend their usefulness by introducing what it calls "Super Tooltips" in the upcoming release of Office 12.
The next-generation Office suite from Microsoft is already slated to bring a major UI makeover. Standard toolbars have been replaced with task-oriented "Ribbons" that include features pertinent to the current job. But such a change will require a learning curve, which is where the new larger tooltips come in.

05.02.2008Twitter administrator account hacked, others compromised
It seems Twitter is still having its share of security trouble, because according to Cnet, a person by the name of Hacker Croll was able to hack into
a Twitter administrator account, by guessing the secret question to reset the administrator's password on a Yahoo e-mail account where the Twitter
password was located. This person was also able to view the details of 10 other accounts including Britney Spears and Ashton Kutcher according to
screenshots posted to a French blog site. Twitter co-founder Biz Stone said that while no account information was altered or removed in any way,
email address, mobile phone number, and the list of accounts blocked by that user were viewed.

Canon U.S.A. Incorporated, the "Official Camera of the NFL" since 1984, has announced the launch of a Super Bowl sweepstakes. An advertisement
promoting the sweepstakes which will award one lucky winner at random (I wish the odds were a tad better than that) a trip for two to Super Bowl XLIII
in Tampa Bay in 2009, will begin appearing on January 14, both online and in print. Canon, the longest-tenured sponsor of the NFL, has lined the
football sidelines for years with both high-definition TV camera lenses and the white lenses used by professional photographers covering the game.

13.07.2007Built-in Administrator Account Disabled
Darren Canavor, Program
Manager on the UAC team has
made a post on the Windows
Vista Security blog about
changes to the behavior of the
built-in Administrator
account:
“In Windows Vista
we made numerous changes to
our user account model.
Standard users are now the
default user type for new
accounts created after initial
setup. The Power Users group
is effectively deprecated. In
addition, we’ve made it much
easier to run as a standard
user and even administrators
run with limited Windows
privileges and user rights by
default. But people often ask
us, “What about the built-in
administrator account? Isn’t
it a security risk to have an
administrator account with no
password?” Yes, in
some cases this administrator
account could be used to
circumvent other security
mechanisms. For example,
parental controls could not be
effective if the child could
simply login with the built-in
administrator account and do
whatever they want, including
disabling the Parental
Controls.
In
Windows Vista RC1 we will have
completed a series of changes
to disable the built in
administrator account under
most circumstances. These
changes apply to the default
administrator account named
Administrator, which is
created during
setup.”

21.10.2008Enable Vista's hidden administrator account, and password-protect its equivalent in XP
You probably know about the "hidden" administrator account in Windows XP. It's the only account on XP systems on which no other accounts have been
created. Until you add a new account, you zip right to the desktop when you boot the OS, with no stop at the Welcome screen. Once you set up one or
more new accounts, the default administrator disappears, though you can bring it back in both XP Home and Pro (more on this below).

13.02.2008Experimental Super 3G network could reach 300Mbps
Japan-based NTT DoCoMo
announced today that it plans
to begin testing on an
experimental "Super 3G"
system for extra-high-speed
data on mobile devices.
The country's largest
mobile carrier said that it
hopes to achieve an impressive
300Mbps down in its tests over
the wireless network. The
company has already begun
accepting proposals from
suppliers and hopes to
implement the Super 3G system
in Japan by 2009.
The
company said that it planned
to start experimenting with
Super 3G in an indoor setting
with only one transmitting
antenna and one receiving
antenna. From there, NTT
DoCoMo plans to expand the
experiment by using four
Multiple-Input Multiple-Output
(MIMO) antennas on both the
transmitting and receiving
side. The ultimate goal will
be not only to achieve 300Mbps
down but also to look at how
well handovers will be handled
between towers.

13.07.2007Camera tech behind the Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is one of the largest sporting events on earth. It attracts hundreds of millions of viewers each year and even more dollars will be
spent on advertising. Have you ever wondered what kind of technology is behind the curtains to make it all possible? This year NBC is leaving no
inch of the field uncovered. First off there will be "400 on-site production and engineering personnel" and they have put down over 50 miles of
fiber optic cable. There will be 35 high end Sony cameras using Cannon lenses to make sure every inch of game play is covered. Cameras will be
placed on everything from goal posts to outside the locker-rooms.

06.02.2006Surface used to coordinate Super Bowl Security
If you've been watching the news this week, you might have caught NFL security VP Milton Ahlerich saying that Raymond James Stadium in Tampa will be
"one the safest locations you can possibly be" during the Super Bowl on Sunday, and it looks like Microsoft Surface will be a big reason why: it's
being used to coordinate security forces around the site.
It's seriously slick -- maps are integrated with planning and voice
communications software so the field commanders can immediately assess incident responses and personnel deployments, with the ability to initiate

30.01.2009Researchers Craft HDTV's Successor
High-definition TV may
still be far from the norm in
many countries, but that
isn't stopping engineers at
Japan's public broadcaster
from pushing ahead with
development of Super
Hi-Vision, a system they hope
will eventually replace HDTV.
Last week engineers at NHK's
(Nippon Hoso Kyokai) Science
and Technical Research
Laboratories showed off their
most recent work on the
technology.
A Super Hi-Vision (SHV)
picture is made up of 4,320
horizontal picture lines and
7,680 vertical lines. That's
four times the horizontal and
vertical resolution of current
HDTV or, put another way, a
single Super Hi-Vision image
is equivalent to 16 tiled HDTV
screens.
In the year
since it was last
demonstrated, the company has
developed an image sensor for
use in TV cameras that can
shoot an entire SHV screen...

04.01.2008Windows 7: User Account Control (UAC) overview
In part one of our overview of Windows 7, we looked into Federated Search. In part two, we look into the much criticized feature of Windows Vista -
The User Account Control One of the highly criticized features in Windows Vista is the User Account Control(UAC) which prompts up a dialog box
seeking users' permission to continue or stop whenever a system-level change is made. The problem with Vista is that even the default user account
which is created during the install, who is a protected administrator (unlike in XP where the user is an Administrator), could not bypass the UAC
until its tweaked.

07.01.2009It's super V-chip to the rescue of kids
The Senate Commerce Committee
approved legislation Thursday
asking the Federal
Communications Commission to
oversee the development of a
super V-chip that could screen
content on everything from
cell phones to the
Internet.
Sen. Mark Pryor, D-Ark.,
the sponsor of the Child Safe
Viewing Act, claims that the
new law is necessary because
content is no longer confined
to the TV or radio, and he
contends the same technology
that allows content to
increasingly migrate from
device to device also can be
used to empower parents.
"It's an
uphill battle for parents
trying to protect their kids
from viewing inappropriate
programming," Pryor said. "I
believe there is a whole new
generation of technology that
can provide an additional
layer of help for these
parents."..
