How To Unboil An Egg ?

Have you ever thought of unboiling a boiled egg? Scientists have figured out a way to do exactly the same. Here is what it is..

When you boil an egg, the heat causes the proteins inside the egg white to tangle and clump together, solidifying it. A new research published in ChemBioChem by scientists at UC Irvine shows how they can essentially reverse the clumping process by adding chemicals to a cooked egg.

“Yes, we have invented a way to unboil a hen egg,” UCI biochemist Gregory Weiss said in a statement.

Google To Test 1 GB per Second Internet Connection

Internet search giant, Google, last week announced a plan to test an ultra high-speed broadband network at Stanford University in 2011.

Incidentally, Stanford is also where Google’s founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, attended. The company will provide high speed access to over 800 staff-owned and faculty members based on Stanford’s Palo Alto, California, campus.

This connection will provide high speed internet access at about 100 times the current average connection speeds, up to 1 GB (gigabit) per second. Using Fiber-optic technology, the company plans to break ground on the project in early 2011.

Also earlier this year, Google announced plans to offer a similar service on a trial basis in one or more locations in the United States, which would allow them to test the network with at least 50,000 people or even more. It is not yet known where these location(s) will be, as Google will only announce the winning community(s) towards the end of this year.

Among Google’s many offerings are also a much faster internet browser called, Google Chrome. Among some of the positive attributes is that the actual display area of the browser is noticeable bigger than for instance Internet Explorer and Firefox

Google’s products seem to keep evolving, with the company branching out into various other areas of business and product offerings to its vast user network.

How To Tell If The Image Is Fake Or Original?

Many a times we come across images where we are stuck into thinking if it is original or photoshopped (fake). Image Error Level Analyzer or simply ELA, is a free web service which helps you in determining if the photo is real or not. 

How does it work?

Error Level Analysis allows you see to see the difference in quality level, represented by brightness. Things which are very bright have been edited most recently, whilst duller parts have been resaved multiple times. This allows you to see not just which parts of the image have been changed, but in what order the changes occurred.

You just have to provide an image URL and hit Process. It will then analyze the image and show results instantly after the processing is complete. You can easily compare and tell if the image is original or modified using Photoshop or any other image editor.

So here you go  Visit Error Level Analysis Website

Bluetooth 3.0 + HR now up to 7 times faster

For the past 11 years, Bluetooth technology has played a very significant role in the way we transfer data between our electronic devices, and now Bluetooth technology will be getting an even faster version.

The new Bluetooth 3.0 + HS is said to have transfer speeds of approximately 24Mbps. That is up from the current 3Mbps for the 2.0 + EDR version, which means the new version will be approximately 7 times faster than the current version. 

This is likely to open up a whole new range of applications for the nifty little device. As might be assumed, computer and mobile manufacturers are already showing interest, but that's not all: The device is also attracting attention from television manufacturers.

Bluetooth 3.0 + HS will not only boast an increased transfer rate, but it will also run on a more energy efficient system, thus saving mobile devices power that have the device installed. One could call this an evolution of sorts. Imagine your mobile device, whether it be a laptop or a mobile phone transferring data files like photos and music up to 7 times faster, yet using less power. That's efficiency.

It is estimated that Bluetooth 3.0 + HR should be available within about a year, so we should see the device making its way onto the market during, or just after, the 1st quarter of 2010.

It seems that Bluetooth technology is one of those technologies that are likely here to stay, given its worldwide use.

Bluetooth is widely used in electronic and mobile devices such as mobile phones and laptops, and gives the user the ability to wirelessly transfer large files such as music or media between two compatable devices without the need to connect the devices with a cable or connecting wire.
