Good job Comcast!

Turns out the speculation was true, you don’t have to be an a-lister to get attention from Comcast online. I must say, I’m impressed. I’ve never seen another company react this way before, and they deserve full praise for such actions. This is one of those stories that I will definitely be sure to echo [...]

Tame Your Multitasking (Concept)

post from Ubergizmo on 09 April 2008 07:07:33 PM. © Ubergizmo

Tame is an elegant concept device that syncs with all your “tech” (desktop, laptop, mobile, Facebook…) and let you allow and will allow or auto-reply to email, phone calls and other techno-social activity requests from others.

Each side of the cube has one “status” associated with a “message”, very much like what you can find on an Instant Messenger. By changing the cube’s position, you switch to a different state. Simple and efficient, no?

The physical aspect of it is its beauty and its curse: what id you forget to flip the Tame when getting to the office or before leaving for a vacation? How does it work if you have more than one Tame? Can you override it?

HTC Post Comfortable Earnings Good Design Sells

HTC Post Comfortable Earnings – Good Design Sells

While Motorola and Palm have been taking a beating in their recent earnings, HTC does much better – at least in terms of profitability. Their earnings increased 38.6% compared to last year to top $1.08B.

HTC does not have the perfect line up, but they consistently create good phones that will stir interest or outright love from consumers. The company sometime takes considerable (calculated) risks and it pays off. Good job HTC!

30 Percent Improvement for Li-Ion Batteries

30 Percent Improvement for Li-Ion Batteries

We all know that mobile computing’s biggest challenge is battery-life. And while it is important, progress have been mostly sluggish over the past few years. This may change thanks to the Argone National Laboratory’s research. By using different materials (manganese oxide instead of cobalt oxide) batteries are less prone to overheating. Also, better energy storage materials are used to increase the total capacity by about 30%.

And that’s not science fiction: Toda Kogyo, a Japanese company, plans to manufacture 30 Million of such batteries in the short-term. Now, it depends what they mean by “short term” :)

post from Fosfor Gadgets on 09 April 2008 06:28:20 PM. © Fosfor Gadgets

There was a photo at Flickr circulating during the weekend of a MacBook Pro running 150 different applications at the same time, and now a guy has posted a video of his Vista machine running 108 applications at the same time. Looks like it’s running pretty smooth actually. Video after the jump.

Your Router Can Be Hacked From a Web Page

That’s one of the topic discussed at the RSA conference by Dan Kaminsky. His point is that web browser design flaws can let hackers change the settings of your router and open the door for an attack.

Upon visiting a web page, Javascript code could be used to access the router configuration page and modify the security settings. Of course, I imagine that widely popular routers with default local IP addresses, administration login and passwords would be more vulnerable to such an attack, so changing these would offer very good protection. Also, it would be nice if the browser could not be tricked into doing such things in the first place.

Spruce up the look of your Gmail with Firefox

I admit it took me a while to get used to Gmail and its insistence on grouping "conversations" together and never deleting anything. I wouldn't be without it (and its supersonic spam filter) now, though: I have three accounts:...
