    The first tablet was used on Mars.. 

    Hj91

    Tablets were first conceptualized in computer games. This is scene from DOOM 3…it was released in 2004, and John Carmack, main designer of this game had started working on it from early 2002..

    Artists, not big corporations are the inspiration behind technology..

    BTW, as we can see on this screenshot, the first tablet was used on Mars ;)  :)

    Waiting For The Hurricane 

    I see I read our lives in the news
    It said our inner fate is whether we win or lose
    Can`t you see there`s always a way to never waste time
    Inner faith and dreams release the tension

    Unchain your mind
    Unchain your mind

    The day can never happen waiting for the hurricane
    If we look to far ahead today is gone
    You will always miss the moment waiting for the hurricane
    Cause the fear of future hides the sun

    If you can`t seem to find new oceans and a little bit more
    Slowly we will fall if we lose sight of the shore
    In the race to be the better or best
    Don`t miss it, the joy of being, or you will never rest

    So unchain your mind
    Unchain your mind

    2011 in review 

    The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

    Here’s an excerpt:

    The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 52,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 19 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

    I wanted to write a blog post but… 

    Anna-man

    I wanted to write a blog post, but looks like its writers block that has caught me..so much activity going around to fill this space, but it just seems too much for me to even think and express my views on it. The numbers of corruption in India are mind boggling and I am certainly baffled by it!

    Whatever will be the outcome of Anna Hazare's fast, i am sure it will answer some of the gravest problems we are facing since independence. People are whole heatedly supporting him and this is indeed a wonderful sign…tremendous response shown by young Indian brigade.

    Let there be power to dreamers. May their courage grow with their conviction.

      If Sarah has uploaded her pool party pictures and set it as public, it is not creepy since she is okay with the idea that the pictures are publicly viewable. If someone peeks unauthorised to a private pool party, that is voyeurism (creepy). Therein lies the difference.

    Men rise…
    Between the spheres of echo,
    The full Moon grows…
    Marching towards a journey…Where?…Nobody knows…Nobody knows….

    Men feel that it has changed….
    Nothing changes…But changes are for the Time,

    What are good ways to insult a mathematician? 

    A group of unethical psychologists want to find out who is smarter – engineers, physicists, or mathematicians. They design an experiment where they leave a group of engineers, a group of physicists and a group of mathematicians in separate rooms with enough food to last them all for two months, all in cans but with no can opener, and sets of writing utensils and no paper. The doors are locked and they cannot escape.

    When the psychologists check on the engineers, they are all well-fed. It turns out that working together, they figured out how to use their pens to open the cans.

    When they check on the physicists, they are still alive and they see that calculations cover the walls, but they have only eaten about half the food. The calculations detailed a method for throwing the can such that it would break open, complete with theoretical probability that the can will open.

    When they check on the mathematicians, they are all dead, and the walls, ceiling and floor are completely covered in calculations. At the end of the calculations is written "it is possible to open the cans."

    Twitter, Facebook and mass hysteria 

    Twitter… Some call it a sensor network, made of people. Some perceive it as a fun way to spread quotes, links. A channel to transfer sparks from your gray matter, without high-level filtering. A screen to show whatever you follow. Those with poor vision may see only blobs but for good eyes, it becomes a glorious scene.

    But is it really possible to have good vision with Twitter? Is it possible to delve into deeper thoughts after all those RTs, quotes, foods and drinks consumed by your neighbours?

     

    No.

     

    Along with Facebook, which provides a constant stream of data from your small world, Twitter does not actually present telepathy but it offers a deformed, uncontrolled version of it: spamopathy. We are spammed every single day, with our consent.

     

    We are not aware of it, because our brains think that information from every familiar source is relevant to our life and can be trusted, compared to unfamiliar ones. However, RTs, likes and such effortless sharing options are elevating the noise from our environment. We better evaluate the value of information when we are forced to spend time to spread it. The size of our networks are also growing fast. It may be easy to control privacy with a bunch of settings but the cognitive burden of the network keeps getting heavier.

     

    Better filtering options can help us deal with some of the noise but still, people, the synapses in the system, won't perform a good evaluation when time for a spark is limited.

    Noise has become constant and an even more dominant part of the Internet. It has evolved to a whole new, real-time form. Real-time… and from your inner circle.

     

    Such an environment pushes us to mass hysteria because we lose our ability to attribute priorities, our ability to allocate time and display correct behaviour against important events.

    There are countless groups for different causes on Facebook. And in bad times (e.g. earthquakes), you can see lots of messages on Twitter about these events. But is our response different than to pointless events on the Web?

     

    No. Because retweeting and sharing has made every event in our network equally important, thus unimportant.

     

    Here's a prediction: Informational equivalence is going to hurt our psychology by destroying cognitive barriers between events. Every bit will be important and every false bit will become fact for at least 60 seconds. Someday, with increasing connection speeds and population, every single person on Earth will have the power to trigger mass hysteria based on lies.

    The Brick!!! 
    PLEASE

     
    Read It.

    Read this today and 
    don't delete it even if 
    you are too busy!! You'll 
    see.


    THE 
    BRICK

    A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar.

    He was watching for kids darting out from between parked 
    cars and slowed down when he thought he saw 
    something.

    As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag's side door!

    He slammed on the brakes and backed the Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.

    The angry 
    driver then jumped out of the 
    car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up 
    against a parked car shouting,


    'What was that all about and who are you?

    Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?'

    The young boy was apologetic.


    'Please, mister…please, I'm sorry but I didn't 
    know what else to do,' He pleaded. 'I threw the 
    brick because no one else would stop…'

    With tears dripping down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car.

    'It's my brother, 'he said 'He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him 
    up'


    Now sobbing, the boy asked the stunned executive, 'Would you please help 
    me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me.'

    Moved beyond words, 
    the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling 
    lump in his throat..

    He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair, then took out a linen handkerchief and dabbed at the fresh 
    scrapes and cuts.

    A quick look told him everything 
    was going to be okay. 'Thank you and may God bless you,' the grateful child told the stranger.

    Too shook up for words, the man simply watched the boy push his wheelchair-bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home..


    It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the dented side door.

    He kept the dent there to 
    remind him of this message: 'Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention!'

    God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have 
    time to listen, He has to throw a brick at us.

    It's our choice to listen or not.


    Thought for the Day:



    If God had a refrigerator,

    your picture would be on it.



    If He had a wallet, 
    your photo would be in it.


    He sends you flowers 
    every spring.

    He sends you a sunrise 
    every morning.

    Face it, friend – He is crazy about 
    you!


    Send this to every

    'beautiful person'

    you wish to bless.

    God didn't promise 
    days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun 
    without rain, but

    He did promise strength for the 
    day, comfort for the tears, and light for the 
    way.

    Read this line very 
    slowly and let it sink 
    in…

    If God brings you to it,

    He will bring you through it.
