An electronic device used for data transmission , text messaging and mobile telephony is called mobile, mobile phone or cell phone. iPhone continues to garner huge buzz, growing share and long lines of the cell phone market . Apple drops the newest model as we approach the second anniversary of the first model. iPhone 3GS promises additional features, more memory, extended battery life, network speeds and faster processing. iPhone 3GS delivers its promises, in many ways . The phone’s software ran noticeable faster and the  battery lasted longer .Some features like multimedia messaging and tethering were scheduled last summer. Far from perfect remains the call quality .
<-300×250 Medium Rectangle – center->
iPhone 3GS has the same design as the first model having the same external control and the shape. Memory sizes are available in black and white and it is more resistant to smudges and fingerprints. This cell phone it is heavier  although shares the same dimensions as its predecessor. As simple and intuitive the interface is , swiping through multiple pages is tedious and if you are not an organized freak, it is painful to drag applications from page to page . Related apps cannot be categorized in folders and this is something bothering.

The camera has no editing features but has  a decent photo quality. Many basic VGA camera phones have standard options like self-timer, digital zoom and white balance while Apple didn’t include them at first. Then added a new ,,Tap to Focus’’ feature and 3 mega pixels resolution. A small box appears on the centre of the display, as you point the lens towards the subject. Tapping the square adjust the exposure, contract, colour ,  white balance and focuses the camera automatically. Just tap the display at your chosen point, if you’d rather focus on the edge of your shot, and the square moves with you. The camera will focus the entire frame, if you don’t tap anywhere.

For example, we were able to get a clear reading on the book’s title if we photographed a book cover sitting on a desk. The title became somewhat blurry if we shifted the focus away from the book. The entire picture would appear brighter if we focused on the brightest part of an image and the same goes for the darker part. But don’t expect miracles because iPhone still doesn’t come with a flash.

It didn’t feel like a big difference the new automatic macro setting.

On the other hand, the new automatic macro setting didn’t appear to make much of a difference. Close-up shots looked slightly better on the iPhone 3GS than they did on the iPhone 3G, but we couldn’t tell when the macro focus was working and when it wasn’t. As with the autofocus feature, the macro setting is a welcome addition, but we’d prefer to have more control over it. In other words, the iPhone 3GS’ camera is smarter than those on the earlier iPhones, but the camera, rather than the user, still runs the show. The quality of iPhone 3 GS’ is better. Tests of outdoor shots looked less blurry.

This iPhone has right on the phone  an easy-to-use video-editing.

The video recorder has a simple interface and you can edit clips right on the display. You can use here the Tap of Focus and controls for video shooting work just like the still camera’s control. The camera shoots are 30 frames per second but the quality is just VGA.  Some videos appear washed out while colours look muted. In comparison with most of the cell phones , iPhone 3GS did better at handling movement. You can upload it directly to your YouTube  account or send it in your e-mail, after you’re done recording.

The phone’s video-editing tool is fun to use and utterly intuitive. It is a great tool but little improvements can be done. When you trim a clip, instead of saving it as a new file it replaces the original video. And another thong is that you can trim only in a linear format – that means that you cannot cut the clip and the 2 remaining ends to make a whole.

Another cool feature is the small thumbnail that will appear on the bottom of the viewfinder. This allows you to quickly open a video or photo that had been shot recently. The photo gallery page can be opened by tapping the thumbnail from where you can send the photo to a friend or just see it.

The iPod player is controlled by the voice control feature that allows you to make calls. You have to just speak the phone name and number into the receiver and the phone call will be made. If something goes wrong, you can press the ,,undo’’ button. You don’t have to train it to recognize your voice because it is speaker-independent.

Throughout the world, cell phones have become a necessity. The ability to access mail, keep in touch with family and business associates are only a few reasons regarding cell phone’s importance. Cell phones provide the user with a sense of security and is a perfect way to stay connected with others. Due to advances in wireless technology cell phone reception has become of high quality and reliable. They are also very easy to use and affordable . They are almost a status symbol in addition to the security and convenience that comes from owning them .

The visual art that in order to mark a two-dimensional medium and makes use of any number of drawing instruments , is called a drawing. Common instruments include: ink and pen, graphite pencils, crayons, wax colour pencils, chalk, charcoal, markers, pastels and stylus. Materials such as: plastic , leather , board, canvas , glass are used but the most common is paper .
<-300×250 Medium Rectangle – center->
Drawing is one of the major forms within the visual arts and is also a form of visual expression . Drawing is emphasising an observation, composition and problem solving .

In car design marker sketching is an essential skill . I will show you a cool car drawing using the following tools : Chartpak markers, BIC black ballpoint pen and a A3 marker sketchbook . First we draw the basic car  including the wheels . In nice proportion, we sketch and add shapes to the basic volume of the car. Shape of the side skirts and the bumper by adding more details, like side mirrors. In order to figure out surface treatment, add cross section . Bring a few details into interior .  First Put colour over shaded areas and then you can add basic body colour. For the reflection , leave some white space . To define shapes more precisely , add another layer of marke . You can add more contract is you want to . To simulate the sky reflection  , add highlight reflections . With a drop of red you can add more detail to the rear light and wheels . To make the sketch pop out of the canvas , create at least a sign of the environment  .

The darker colour of the background  it improves the overall perception of the sketch and also improves the contrast . For the final touch, you can correct minor mistakes and can the image to Photoshop and play with the contract and brightness until you are satisfied with the result .

The next cool car drawing I will show you how to draw Ford Model T , this is an old model . You can use a B lead of a mechanical pencil . But you can easier draw the lines with a finer pencil. This is not so important, in fact you can draw with any kind of pencil. I suggested the B pencils because they are easier grade to use when you are learning , due to the softer lead . The item that you must have nearby , is the eraser . Look at the  car and you will see how simple it seems to draw it. Drawing is in fact very simple.

Cars evolved very much over the years . It started with a steam car , after that it was the electric car which was  replaced by the gasoline car . Lincoln Cabriolet and VW were the largest selling imported vehicle . Because of the mass production , we can know afford to buy a car . A whole new way of life was brought because most of us have cars . Car racing is a great sport that tests the performance and speed of cars . A formula 1 vehicle has a rear engine , just one seat ,  rear  wings and no roof.

Something drawing can make you feel desperate but in the end you will draw something really spectacular that will make you forget about all the failures. I’ve heard something interesting that I will share to you, someone told me that if you look at your drawing in the mirror, you will see the mistakes more clearly or just have a break and look at your drawing the next day.

This is how to make a retro car drawing on your computer: first of all you need to create a new file, then choosing the Paint Bucket Tool you can paint the layer in white. And with anew layer you will create the car’s contour. To represent very accurate contours use Stroke Path. The layer containing the contours can be erased by moving it on the recycle icon.. By using the Brush Tool you can paint the car. With the command Make Selection you can select a Pen Tool to mark out all the details. With Gradient Tool you can add volume. Grey-dark and white colours are used to process the metallic part. For tires we use dark colour. Except the background’s layer, you can merge all the other layers. First we have to copy the car’s layer, selecting Image-Adjustments-Brightness-Contrast you can represent the car in this layer in black colour. By using Edit-Transform-Distort you can move this layer by distorting it a little. To blur the shadow you can use Filter-Blur-Motion Blur. With the Eyedrop tool you can paint the new layer and change it with Blending Mode. Gradient Tool is necessary to apply a darker part and on Overlay change the layer’s Blending Mode. The reflexes are inserted on the grey parts. To create a picture frame you can choose Rectangular Tool and Crop Tool.



A cool car drawing will be great after some practice. So don’t give up. You can use all the tools that are best for you.  To practice. Draw anything you see. It will help your future performances. The scanning process and the drawing will improve with time. The bad parts from drawing will disappear after consistent practice .

Picture the following scenario. You are travelling. You are supposed to enjoy a great vacation on the beach but it’s raining cats and dogs outside. So you are stuck in your hotel room with absolutely nothing to do. It’s just you, your laptop and the hotel’s slow wireless internet connection. If only you had thought of copying some games on this laptop before when you were still at home. What to do? Well, if you read this article, we are going to give you some tips on cool websites for games.
<-300×250 Medium Rectangle – center->
One web address which is extremely easy to remember is www.games.com. You surely won’t forget it soon. This website, just like many others, will allow you to play some free online games which mean no downloading is required. Of course some websites also have games available for download but they are usually demo version and you need to pay to buy the full game. You can choose from different categories like puzzle, card & board, arcade games, sports games, casino games, word games, time management and even cash games.

This website offers some good games that some of you may have already heard about. Diner Dash 4 – Hometown Hero is a game which can be downloaded on your PC but this website gives you the chance to play it for free online. We haven’t tried playing the online version but it is probably still a demo and you can play until you reach a certain level.  This is a time management game where you play the role of Flo, a girl who is looking to help her grandmother to save the family restaurant.

Another cool website for games is www.shockwave.com. As you can imagine, this is a website that runs Flash game so you need to have Adobe Flash Player installed on your PC. Aside from the categories of the website presented above, you have some additional games options like jigsaws, strategy games, racing games, adventure games, shooters, family and kids games, hidden object games (these are definitely the newest trend) and matching games. Since there are so many games to choose from and you probably can’t make up your mind that easily, there are some special categories with newest games or top rated games, even most played games to give you a hint on what other website visitors enjoy playing. Maybe there is a game in there for you as well. You can also download games. This is an option for those who have don’t have access to an internet connection for very long and want to be able to play the game afterwards as well.  However, like I’ve mentioned before, you only can download a demo version meaning you probably have only one hour limited game play. You can also choose to create your own account on their website. This sign up is free but I’m not quite sure what the benefits are. You can play games even if you are not logged in or have no account of any kind. You do have access to some games that are not available for everyone and you must have an account if you want to play multiplayer games. Maybe you have other benefits like buying some full games for lower prices.

http://www.deathball.net/notpron is one of the most difficult riddle games you have ever played in your entire life. The full online version of the game is available at the address above. There is an entire community dedicated to this game. You probably won’t be able to finish it without sharing or looking into home hints that other people posted on forums. However, we recommend you don’t look for a walkthrough the first minute you get stuck. It’s much more fun when you try to solve the riddles by yourself and when you succeed; the satisfaction will be much bigger. Be careful, endless tries with no success can cause frustration so it is still advisable you look for some hints rather than start smashing the keyboard. This game is definitely going to keep you occupied for long hours, maybe even days. I have looked into some forums and people are really into this game. Most of them got stuck around level 80 and it seems they needed some other friend’s help. Pretty complicated, huh?

However, if you are looking for a game which is special, different that the others, addictive and which gives you the possibility to interact with other people, try www.gladiatus.com. This website offers you a great challenging game where you can even make new friends. Choose your country and your language and you will be directed to the Gladiatus website of your country. Here you can create your own character, starting from scratch. You must accomplish missions to earn skill points and gold. There is a gladiator’s arena when you can battle opponents of your level. You can use gold to train some skills like power, agility or charisma. There is a market where you can sell or buy different items from other players and there is also an auction where you can bid for other cool items. You can form a guild or join an existing one where you will meet other people and fight all together to reach the number one place. You can also donate some gold to increase the number of free spaces in your guild so some people can join. There are a lot of other features. You can even buy mercenaries that will fight by your side when you take dungeon missions and you can equip each of these mercenaries with the proper items to make them more powerful.  There are lots of possibilities with this game but we’ll have you know it’s very addictive and there is a good chance you’ll be coming home from work and instead of giving your kids a hug and taking a hot bath, you’ll end up by turning on the PC and checking what new items are available at today’s auction.

As you can see, the internet has tons of free games to offer. Whether you like riddle games, adventure games or even strategy games, you are bound to find something out there for you. Just google the type of game you mostly enjoy and behold entire pages filled with possibilities.

A website is a gathering of associated web pages, videos, images or other digital values that can be searched with a trivial IP address or domain name in an Internet Protocol-based network. One web site can exist on a web server at least, that can be accessed through a network like Internet or a particular local area network.
<-300×250 Medium Rectangle – center->
A document, usually typed in plain text bulked with formatting directions of Hypertext Markup Language is called a web page. That may possess pieces from other web sites if they have markup anchors that are suitable. In order to access and transport web pages, one must use Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), that could facultative employ encryption, like HTTPS or HTTP Secure to offer privacy and security for the web page content’s user. The application of the user, usually a web browser, offers the page content through its HTML markup instructions towards a display terminal.

The World Wide Web is made of all the web sites that are publicly accessible.

The homepage is a Uniform Resource Locator, shortly URL, that is casually used to access the pages of a web site. The pages’ URL establish a hierarchy among them, albeit hyperlinking among them transmits the observed site structure of the reader and directs the navigation of the reader concerning the site.

Some of the web sites ask for a subscription to process a part or all of the content present there. For example, a lot of business sites are subscription sites, as well as gaming sites, academic journal sites, a part of many news sites, social networking web sites, web-based e-mail, sites that provide real-time stock market data, services and message boards.

There are many opinions concerning the 50 coolest sites in the world. According to Time, in partnership with CNN, for example, the 50 best web sites are the ones presented below. They are web sites that will require the erasing of your bookmarks, as they say joking around.

Starting with the bottom, with the one at the end of the list, Know Your Meme is the favorite dish of the fledgling. Weekly or seldom, “researchers” from the  Rocketboom Institute for Internet Studies give details about what is amusing on the Internet and why.

Get High Now is the next in the reversed list. Do not let the name fool you, because such a thing has not been invented, at least, not yet. The web site is actually a science site wearing a mask of mind- expansion. There are 40 visual and audio illusions or hallucinations that wait for you to experience them and understand them after they are explained through brain science. For example, even if they do not change the key, the Shepard tones arrive at a lower and lower or higher and higher tone. The Risset rhythms appear to have a faster and faster pace, but if you tape them with your foot, you notice they have never changed to start from. Theta-wave synchronizations and binaural beats give you a different state, and it is true, because you can see the induced changes through fMRI. A secret to science, the highly intoxicating chronosynclastic infundibulum is also presented on the web site.

Fonolo is a web site that will make you forget about the tiresome “Press one for English”. If you have had it with the impersonal, annoying corporations, Fonolo presses some buttons for you and remains on hold until someone in flesh and bones comes to speak to you. You phone then rings and you can talk to that person. You can even record the chatting as an MP3.

Going to the middle of the arrangement, skipping WorldWideTelescope, OMGPOP, Photosynth, Issuu, drop.io, Aardvark, TripIt, Mint, BabyNameWizard.com’s NameVoyager, CouchSurfing, Visuwords, Yelp, Supercook, Spotify, Musicovery, Pandora and Last.fm, Facebook, Pollster, Metacritic, ConsumerSearch, Kiva and Internet Archive, we find Wikipedia, the good old encyclopedia where anybody can edit and update the information.

Like in the Olympics, we skip over to the third place, leaving Redfin, PropertyShark.com, Etsy, Netflix, Kayak, Amazon, Shop Goodwill, Craiglook, Fora TV, Vimeo, Hulu, Wolfram | Alpha, YouTube, Google, OpenTable, Academic Earth, Boing Boing, Skype, Twitter, popurls and Metafilter aside.

Delicious (once del.icio.us), began as a sort of the Flickr of bookmarks, both being owned by Yahoo!. Now it is more helpful as a search-engine hack. By filtering the tags of the web site, you narrow it down to the kind of content you are looking for.

The second site, California Coastline by its name, is a must for those who try to conquer the sky, although it is definitely NSFW. One of the most riveting sites on the Internet is created using only a digital camera, a helicopter and a man. The web site is rudimentary, it does not want to show off with its interface, but with what is says to be – 10,000 up-close-and-personal shots from the air of the entire 1,000-mile-long coast.

You would have expected it or not, but Times’ number one choice in the list of 50 coolest web sites is Flickr. It was the first site that solved the computers’ problems with visual imagery, using the so- called  collaborative tagging. The main point is that everybody can tag everybody’s uploaded photos, then they will enter in a category created by the crowd. The archive of Flickr has almost 3 billion photos. As a cool fact, the Library of Congress has begun to poll the Flickr hive mind when it arranges its personal photos.

Now either Mozilla wants to decide what sites can control rss feeds or this is a bug. Normally when a blog site uses Feedburner to manage its’ feed, it will allow the user to see a preview of the feed and then links to add that feed to pretty much every online reader known to man.

Well it’s not possible (that I can see) in Firefox 2.0. You have 4 Options: Live Bookmark, Bloglines, My Yahoo or Google Reader. Plus there is an option to enter in a .exe option. Considering there isn’t a link to add to Microsoft’s Live.com or any other site, this is obviously intentional.

For an example you can look at our feed:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/Dv-depot

or even Feedburners own site:
http://feeds.feedburner.com/BurnThisRSS2
