Ideum’s MT-55 ‘Platform’ multitouch table goes ultrathin, demands but $18,000

Posted by on Monday, 18 July, 2011

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve heard from the fine folks at Ideum, but when the image above floated into our inbox… well, it’s safe to say our interest was piqued. We last heard from these guys back in the fall of 2009, and while The Platform is certainly a bit smaller than the 100-inch MT-50 that came before it, it’s also a heck of a lot more practical for average consumers. Well, save for the price. Looking beyond that for a moment, you’ll find a devilishly thin (3-inches) table, complete with 55-inches of 1080p gorgeousness, a 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio, 178-degree viewing angle and support for a 64-bit copy of Windows 7 Professional. The internal computer includes a dual-core Core i5 CPU (2.66GHz), 8GB of memory and a 128GB SSD; you’ll also find WiFi, Bluetooth and a slew of “hidden ports.” The entire thing is constructed from aircraft-grade aluminum, and it supports a total of 32 touch points. We’ll leave it to you to discover what it’ll be used for in your future abode, but if you’ve got the ,950 to take one home, you’ve probably got the brains to figure it out.

Inbox Influence Gmail plug-in outs the closet teabaggers in your life

Posted by on Tuesday, 7 June, 2011

Our parents always told us there were two topics we should never discuss in polite company: money and politics. Lucky for us, a new Gmail plug-in, called Inbox Influence, has made it so we don’t have to do any talking to find out who pledges allegiance to the ass or the elephant — and how much they’re willing to spend to support those affiliations. The add-on is available for Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and IE9, and offers information about the political leanings and contributions made by the entities and individuals that appear in your inbox. C’mon, you know you’re dying to find out which of your tennis-mates has a stake in Palin.

Yahoo upgrades its email for everyone, puts Facebook updates and tweets in your inbox

Posted by on Thursday, 26 May, 2011

Yahoo is the latest in a line of would-be champions to try to topple king Gmail from its perch atop the email mountain. The company’s newest Mail Beta (no relation to Gmail Beta) was introduced last October, but now its overhauled UI and fresh features are available to all. With the change comes quicker load times, stronger spam filtration, and it lets you send and receive Facebook updates and tweets. It also automatically turns picture and video links into thumbnail previews and handles up to 100MB attachments. These fancy new features are certainly a step in the right direction (even if the purple paintjob isn’t), but time will tell if it’ll rule the webmail world.

Outlook 2010 Mail – How To Manage Multiple Mail Accounts

Posted by on Tuesday, 24 May, 2011

Outlook 2010 can handle all your email accounts. This supplies you a single interface for working with all your messages. There are two aspects to making this happen. The first is knowing how to configure Outlook for Gmail or the specific services you use. Unfortunately, I do not have adequate space here to cover how that works. The link at the conclusion of this article will get you to a site that does contain all the information on setting up a Outlook 2010 Webmail linkage.

The second aspect is knowing how to manage the assorted email accounts after you have them configured. This post covers those basics.

When you Receive Messages

You can receive mail from various different types of email accounts. Outlook 2010 automatically checks each email account for you, depending on the options in your Send/Receive groups. Messages end up in assorted spots depending on the type of account. Typically, messages from Gmail and Hotmail accounts will end up in their own mail folders, while messages from other account types (Yahoo Mail, for example) end up in the Inbox.

So how do you see which messages go with which accounts? The messages that end up in their own set of folders aren’t hard to figure out. For other types of accounts, if you can’t tell just by looking, the To: field of the message provides the answer. The email address that the message was meant for will appear here.

When You Send Messages

When sending mail, you manage which account Outlook 2010 utilizes. Outlook always has a default account for sending mail, but you are able to order Outlook to use a different account like this:

  • When you forward a message, Outlook handles it the same way as a reply.
  • When you create a new message, Outlook uses the default account (unless you change it).
  • If you are replying to a message, Outlook uses the same account as the message by default. But you still have the option to tell Outlook to reply using a different account.

So how exactly do you tell Outlook 2010 to use a different account? You do so in the message window. Look for the “From” button next to the “Send” button (this only appears if you have more than one account set up). Click “From” and select the account you want to use.

Set the Default Email Account

If you want to change Outlook’s default account, here’s what you have to do:

1. In the Ribbon, click the “File” tab.

2. In the menu that appears, click “Info” to display the “Account Information” screen.

3. Click the “Account Settings” button and select “Account Settings…” in the menu that appears. This opens the Account Settings dialog box to the E-mail tabbed page.

4. In the box that contains the list of email accounts, select the default account you want.

5. If the account isn’t already the default account, the Set as Default option (located above the box containing the email accounts) should now be clickable. Click “Set as Default” to change the default account.

6. Click “Close” to return to the Outlook window.

You now possess the fundamental information you need to work with multiple Outlook 2010 mail accounts. All you need is solid instructions for connecting accounts to Outlook 2010. You’ll find them at: Microsoft Outlook Mail

Most of the people in general have at the least one email account. The increasing use of digital cameras and camera phones is the reason why we are able to send photos with the click of a mouse.

MP3 players have grown very popular, and even we are able to download music that can be played on them with major ease. All this is great, and the world wide web becomes a major area of our everyday lives.

Unfortunately, there is always a negative aspect of all of this increased use of internet. The increase of viruses spread and various malware. Basically, internet hackers were satisfied by having their attention with government as well as commercial web-sites, and their trojans were designed to attack them. The majority of hackers saw this as a challenge.

Having said that, there is now a growing trend towards home computer users, which are targeted by these attacks. The number of problem, which can be caused by a virus, is varies. However, there are a lot of actions that a person can take in order to boost their internet security.

The first task to keep your laptop or computer free from viruses requires you to have up-to-date antivirus software running on your computer. You have to perform frequent checks to ensure your software is updated, and then to scan your computer for any threats.

There are plenty of less expensive and free antivirus computer software around that offers decent protection. You will get these by searching through your search engine for antivirus software.

The next thing to keep up your internet security is to being totally beware on the kind of files that you will open, or download. The majority of viruses are actually spread by e-mail attachments. Getting any on your hard disk and in your inbox simply is not the danger. The real danger is when you open up the attachment.

It perhaps not be visible that something has occurred the moment you first open the attachment carrying the virus. Quite often, they tend to be blank. The virus that is triggered by open up the attachment is usually causes the real damage. Should you not know, or do not trust the person who has sent you the attachment, then simply delete the email.
