Google Images Redesigned

[tweetmeme source=HtNaMuS only_single=false]

Recently Google with its new search interface made easy to search for specific kind of images for example images with particular size ,color and type like clipsart, drawing etc .But it is also going to rollout some more features to its search interface to make its users more comfortable.



Here’s what’s new in the refreshed design of Google Images:

  • Dense tiled layout designed to make it easy to look at lots of images at once so that we can experience a rich list of images and browse from the group for what we are looking for.

  • Instant scrolling between pages, without letting you get lost in the images. You can now get up to 1,000 images, all in one scrolling page. And we’ll show small, unobtrusive page numbers so you don’t lose track of where you are.

  • Larger thumbnail previews on the results page, designed for modern browsers and high-res screens.

  • A hover pane that appears when you mouse over a given thumbnail image, giving you a larger preview, more info about the image and other image-specific features such as “Similar images.”

  • Once you click on an image, you’re taken to a new landing page that displays a large image in context, with the website it’s hosted on visible right behind it. Click anywhere outside the image, and you’re right in the original page where you can learn more about the source and context.

  • Optimized keyboard navigation for faster scrolling through many pages, taking advantage of standard web keyboard shortcuts such as Page Up / Page Down. It’s all about getting you to the info you need quickly, so you can get on with actually building that treehouse or buying those flowers.

Alok, who was raised in the U.S., was inspired by the success of open source software and web 2.0 innovations. Hidden Reflex began as a team of three but soon progressed and now has dedicated teams working on two products simultaneously – the Epic Browser and NewsDrink. The company also has three patents pending related to its product innovations.

The company’s vision is to become the first globally recognized, consumer-oriented software product company in India. According to Alok Bhardwaj, CEO and Founder of Hidden Reflex, “We want to prove that India can be a hub for innovation in software and technology.Our mission with the Epic browser is to create the most secure, most productive and most “Indian” browsing experience of any web browser!"

Login To Multiple Google Accounts in Same Browser

[tweetmeme source=HtNaMuS only_single=false]
[digg=http://digg.com/tech_news/Login_To_Multiple_Google_Accounts_in_Same_Browser]

This the coming new feature in near future provided by Google to its users to sign in into different accounts at the same time that to in the same browser.As mentioned in Google Operating System (a unofficial blog on Google) Google is testing this feature and may release in near future.The post says " Multiple sign-in only works for Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Reader,
Google Docs, Google Sites and Google Code, but it's likely that other
Google services will be added when this feature will be publicly

available.

If you use a service that doesn't support multiple sign-in, it will
default to the first account that you signed in using your browser.
Google suggests to use a different browser, but you can also use chrome's incognito mode to sign in to an additional Google account.
Another
limitation is that Gmail's offline mode is disabled if you turn on
multiple sign-in."

[tweetmeme source=HtNaMuS only_single=false]


[digg=http://digg.com/tech_news/FireFox_4beta_1_Released]


The most awaited Firefox 4beta 1 has been released on this tuesday.This is the first look version for the Firefox 4 which is  going to be released in near future.This is released as test version so that the bugs can be rectified before the final release of Firefox 4.The first and foremost difference which you can notice after installing this new version is the tabs on top of the address bar as like Google chrome.They say the change is because "We moved the tabs to the top to make it easier to focus on the web content and easier to control the tools in your Web browser. Also, if you have Windows 7 or Windows Vista the Menu bar was replaced with a single Firefox button so you can get to the most used options with just one click".



There is a lot more to this beta than a facelift on Windows, including:

Partition Your Harddrive in Windows

[tweetmeme source=HtNaMuS only_single=false]
[digg=http://digg.com/microsoft/Partition_Your_Harddrive_in_Windows_TeknoBuzz]

First we start by talking about what is the need for doing partition for a hard disk.With out saying the advantages of having different partitions in your hard disk i will say the disadvantages of having only one partition.Every one saves a lot of important stuff and will also be very careful while surfing internet but in these days it is very easy to get attacked by a virus.So if there is no chance of preventing it, we keep the important stuff away from viruses.i mean if we partition hard disk in such a way that the OS files are kept in a different partition from the important files which we want to store.A virus can be removed if it doesn't attack our OS files some how by deleting the file it attacks or by scanning it using online antivirus softwares or by any wares offline but removing a virus which attacks our system files cannot be removed because we cant delete our system files if we do so it becomes the situation of cutting the branch on which we are sitting so we cant do that.So i recommend you to partition your hard drive so that if virus attacks your system or any other thing happens to your OS your directly format your OS which is in a specific partition by getting no effect to any of your data.I think its enough and i might have bored you.Here is the way to format your harddrive in windows.

While partitioning you may increase your partition size or decrease it.First i will tell you how to decrease i.e. shrink the volume and then i about extending it.

Step 1:

Right click on the My computer icon and click on Manage option and wait until a window opens showing you disk management option in the sidepane it will look like this.Click on the disk management option .

Get Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop Edition To Your Home For Free

[tweetmeme=HtNaMuS only_single=false]
[digg=http://digg.com/linux_unix/Get_Ubuntu_10_04_LTS_Desktop_Edition_To_Your_Home_For_Free]

Ubuntu  is a computer operating system based on the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and is distributed as free and open source software with additional proprietary software available.It is named after the Southern African ethical principle Ubuntu ("humanity towards others"). Ubuntu provides an up-to-date, stable operating system for the average user, with a strong focus on usability and ease of installation. Web statistics suggest that Ubuntu's share of Linux desktop usage is about 50%, and upward trending usage as a web server.

ubuntu_logo_on_ice

I like tell you some facts about the versions of Ubuntu.A new version will be released for every 6 months and they are released in 4th and 10th month of any year.So the version number comes by combining year.month .The new is released in April 29 2010 i.e in the 4th month and the year is 2010 ,so the version name comes as Ubuntu 10.04.Ok the version is fine and what about the LTS beside the version.LTS is the acronym of Long Term Service, these editions are released once for 2 years and are supported for three years on the desktop and five years for servers .

Since it is a Open Source you can download it for free from their website .There will also do a favor for us.If we face any bandwidth problems in downloading the Ubuntu OS which is around 700mb ,they will ship it to our location for free of cost.And this is now available for the new Version  10.04 LTS , i think now you can understand the version name clearly.

Here is the procedure to get one Ubuntu 10.04 LTS to your home.
