YouTube Working Mechanism

YouTube is a video-sharing website, created by three former PayPal employees in February 2005, on whic users can upload, share and view videosThe company is based in San Bruno, California, and uses Adobe Flash Video and HTML5[4] technology to display a wide variety of user-generated video content, including movie clips, TV clips, and music videos, as well as amateur content such as video blogging and short original videos. Most of the content on YouTube has been uploaded by individuals, although media corporations including CBS, BBC, VEVO, Hulu, and other organizations offer some of their material via the site, as part of the YouTube partnership program


As the company has grown, so has the scope of the videos on the site. In the early of YouTube, you could find videos showing interesting locations, crazy stunts and hilarious pranks. You can still find that sort of content today, but you'll also see political debates, musical performances, instructional videos and unfiltered war footage. In 2007, YouTube even provided members with a way to interact with potential United States presidential candidates. YouTube members submitted video questions, and CNN featured some of them in Democratic and Republican candidate debates.
 Tube has also become the center of several controversies. One of the most publicized controversies involves copyright infringement. YouTube doesn't prescreen videos before they appear on the site -- members upload thousands of videos every day. Sometimes, YouTube members will upload television shows or clips from movies to share with other people. If the YouTube member doesn't own the copyright to that material, there could be trouble.What is this loyal YouTube community? In this article, we'll explore YouTube channels and communities and learn some neat YouTube tricks. We'll also examine the YouTube video player, tour YouTube's main pages and discover the difference between the different types of YouTube accounts And we'll even take a look at YouTube's rules and guidelines as well as at the company behind the videos.
 Before we delve into all things YouTube, it's a good idea to look at what the site is all about -- videos. In the next section, we'll learn about YouTube's video player, the video formats YouTube accepts and how members can help viewers find their work.

Community policy

YouTube has a set of community guidelines aimed to reduce abuse of the site's features. Generally prohibited material includes sexually explicit content, videos of animal abuse, shock videos, content uploaded without the copyright holder's consent, hate speech, spam, and predatory behaviour

Cloud computing

Cloud computing
Much of our computing (including the storage of our personal data) is now being done remotely via the 'cloud'. But what is it? Here is a brief history of this radical shift while, below, we assess the relative merits of four cloud computing services

 The question was designed to draw attention to the ingenuity with which the company's designers had managed to pack the components of an entire desktop computer into what was effectively an enclosure for a large flat screen. But actually it's a question with a more contemporary relevance, because nowadays most of us rely on "computing" that's provided by machines we never see and could not locate even if we tried. They are somewhere out there in the internet "cloud" (so called because the network is often drawn as a cloud in technical diagramIt's very different from how things used to be. Once upon a time the computer was the PC (or the laptop) on your desk. If you wanted to do word processing, or calculations on a spreadsheet, or to read and write emails, you did so by launching a program that ran on your computer. And the data – the documents, calculations or messages – that you produced were likewise stored on the hard drive inside your machine. Even if the PC was connected to the net, most of your computing activity happened inside the box on your desk.s), which is how so many of us came to be users of something called "cloud computing".
Digital cameras and smartphones mean a lot of people have thousands of photos stored on their computers. Why store them in the cloud too? Partly to make them easier to share, but also for security: a back-up in case your hard drive comes a cropper.
Flickr is the best-known cloud photos service, although in recent years it has faced serious competition from Facebook. You can upload to Flickr from your computer or mobile device, and it now makes it easier to post them on social networks too. Rivals include Photobucket and Picasa Web Albums, although now there are also mobile cloud photo apps such as Instagram and Picplz, which let you apply a range of visual effects before sharing.
Cloud computing providers deliver applications via the internet, which are accessed from web browsers and desktop and mobile apps, while the business software and data are stored on servers at a remote location. In some cases, legacy applications (line of business applications that until now have been prevalent in thin client Windows computing) are delivered via a screen-sharing technology, while the computing resources are consolidated at a remote data center location; in other cases, entire business applications have been coded using web-based technologies such as AJAX.At the foundation of cloud computing is the broader concept of infrastructure convergence (or Converged Infrastructure) and shared services.[5] This type of data center environment allows enterprises to get their applications up and running faster, with easier manageability and less maintenance, and enables IT to more rapidly adjust IT resources (such as servers, storage, and networking) to meet fluctuating and unpredictable business demand.

U.S. Cellular Delays LTE Rollout

U.S. Cellular Delays LTE Rollout

U.S. Cellular said Friday that its LTE network will be up and running devices which support it are ready during the first quarter of 2012, a delay from previous statements.
The nation's sixth-largest carrier, which recently recorded another Reader's Choice award from PCMag.com, said that its LTE transition would be enabled by King Street Wireless, in which U.S. Cellular has a stake.
That's the same message U.S. Cellular delivered in May, when it said that it would make available LTE devices and its network by the holidays. At the time, the company claimed that the LTE network would service 25 percent of its customer base.
Details of additional markets will be revealed later, the company said. The company's coverage covers most of the United States, via EVDO.
"With a 4G LTE network and cutting-edge 4G LTE devices, customers will be able to connect to their friends and family even faster and get more done when they're away from their home or office," said Mary N. Dillon, president and CEO of U.S. Cellular, in a statement. "We're excited to partner with King Street Wireless to bring 4G LTE speed to more customers next year that will help them be more productive. Our commitment to providing products and services that simplify and enhance customers' lives is one of the reasons we have the happiest customers in wireless."
Dillon made news this week when she said that U.S. Cellular had turned down the Apple iPhone 4S. Dillon said Apple's "terms were unacceptable from a risk and profitability standpoint" and claimed network capacity was not a factor in her decision. The company, however, is open to carrying the iPhone in the future, she said.

Socialbots steal 250GB of user data in Facebook invasion

250GB of user Data steal in Facebook invasion

Programs designed to resemble humans infiltrated Facebook recently and made off with 250 gigabytes of personal information belonging to thousands of the social network's users, researchers said in an academic paper released today
The eight-week study was designed to evaluate how vulnerable online social networks are to large-scale infiltrations by programs designed to mimic real users, researchers from the University of British Columbia.
 During the next six weeks, the bots sent connection requests to 3,517 Facebook friends of users who accepted requests during the first phase. Of those, 2,079 users, or about 59 percent, accepted the second round of requests. The increase was due to what researchers called the "triadic closure principle," which predicts that if two users had a mutual friend in common, they were three times more likely to become connected.From the OSN [online social network] side, we show that it is not difficult to fully automate the overall operation of an SbN [socialbot network], including accounts creation, researchers wrote in the paper, which is scheduled to be presented at next month's Annual Computer Security Applications Conference in Orlando, Fla. "From the users' side, we show that most OSN users are not careful enough when accepting connection requests sent by strangers, especially when they have mutual connections..We have numerous systems designed to detect fake accounts and prevent scraping of information," a Facebook representative said. "We are constantly updating these systems to improve their effectiveness and address new kinds of attacks. We'll use the University of British Columbia research as part of that process. In addition, as always, we encourage people to only connect with people they actually know and report any suspicious behavior they observe on the site.

Monitoring Policies for Twitter, Facebook

Monitoring Policies for Twitter, Facebook

When the U.S. Department of Homeland Security receives information about potential threats to the U.S., agents may turn to social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter.
According to an Associated Press report Tuesday, federal agents are still mulling how to best pull intelligence from social media sites and determine whether it is valid or Web chatter.
"We're still trying to figure out how you use things like Twitter as a source," the AP reported Wagner as saying. "How do you establish trends and how do you then capture that in an intelligence product?"
What's more surprising than government security agencies monitoring Facebook and Twitter is that they might just be starting to figure it out, Olds added.
"We'd like to hope that government security agencies are ahead of the game when it comes to things like ferreting out useful intelligence from social networking, then we learn that they're probably even with, or maybe a bit behind, businesses on this score," he said. "Corporations, particularly those with consumer products, have been trying to use social networking to understand consumer views and purchasing behavior for quite a while now. While this is still in its infancy, it looks like businesses are a bit ahead of the security agencies on this score."
 
Zeus Kerravala, an analyst with ZK Research, said since social networking sites are still relatively new, everyone is still trying to figure them out.
"For governments, the challenge is bigger than most," he added. "I imagine they're looking for patterns and codes. The volume of messages is so high that filtering the information is incredibly difficult."

Android coming to tv with gesture recognitions
TVs are about to grow some brains. Hisense Group, a leading Chinese consumer electronics manufacturer signed a licensing agreement with eyeSight Mobile Technologies, a developer of touch free interfaces for digital devices. Together the two will integrate eyeSight’s innovative Hand Gesture Recognition Technology into new models of Android based Smart TV sets. Yep, Android is coming to the TV.
The first model of Hisense Smart TV with this unique feature is Series XT710, which has been introduced to consumer markets in China to mark the October 1st National holidays. Users will enjoy a natural, new intuitive way of interacting with their TV sets.But how does all this work, your all too human neurons might be asking you. Well, these smart TVs will use motion monitoring cameras to read a persons hand and body gestures and in turn control various functions. Hisense will be making use of eyeSights SDK on their new XT710 smart TV, which makes use of 2D cameras to monitor hand gestures and movements. It’s back to the future, folks!

Google's self-driving Shocking robo-Priuses

Posted by nasi On Wednesday, 12 October 2011 0 comments
Google's self-driving fleet of robot-Priuses

Google's self-driving fleet of robo-Priuses have been cruising around the San Francisco area for months now, logging over 190,000 miles. But until recently, the technology behind the autonomous cars had been kept secret. Last month, Sebastian Thrun, a Stanford professor and head of the project, and Google engineer Chris Urmson, delivered a keynote speech at the IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems in San Francisco, explaining how the car works.

 The "heart of the system" is its Velodyne 64-beam laser that sits on the roof of the Prius, creating the 3-D map of the surrounding environment. This 3-D image is combined with existing high resolution maps programmed into the car. Four radars (one for the front, back, left and right) are used to give the car far-sighted vision for handling high speeds on freeways. There's also a camera near the rear view mirror for monitoring stop lights. GPS, an inertial measurement unit, and wheel encoder keep track of where the car goes.

Once a secret project, Google's autonomous vehicles are now out in the open, quite literally, with the company test-driving them on public roads and, on one occasion, even inviting people to ride inside one of the robot cars as it raced around a closed course. Google's fleet of robotic Toyota Prius's has now logged more than 190,000 miles (about 300,000 kilometers), driving in city traffic, busy highways, and mountainous roads with only occasional human intervention. The project is still far from becoming commercially viable, but Google has set up a demonstration system on its campus, using driver less golf carts, which points to how the technology could change transportation even in the near future.
he vehicle also carries other sensors, which include: four radars, mounted on the front and rear bumpers, that allow the car to "see" far enough to be able to deal with fast traffic on freeways; a camera, positioned near the rear-view mirror, that detects traffic lights; and a GPS, inertial measurement unit, and wheel encoder, that determine the vehicle's location and keep track of its movements.
Two things seem particularly interesting about Google's approach. First, it relies on very detailed maps of the roads and terrain, something that Urmson said is essential to determine accurately where the car is. Using GPS-based techniques alone, he said, the location could be off by several meters.
The second thing is that, before sending the self-driving car on a road test, Google engineers drive along the route one or more times to gather data about the environment

What HTML5 Hath Wrought

Posted by nasi On Tuesday, 23 August 2011 0 comments

Magic Of HTML5

Since HTML5 runs on all modern Web browsers and supports many of the capabilities of modern mobile devices, it can serve as a universal platform for applications. A universal platform provides significant business benefits, not only in terms of developer productivity, but also in terms of employee productivity, competitive advantages and technical benefits.
A universal Web application can be written now, but it takes some feature-sniffing and careful coding to make it work well on each possible browser. This requires extensive testing and a rather good Web developer. Alternatively, there are tools and frameworks available for generating universal HTML5 applications.
On the other hand, if the definition of "universal" is restricted to what works now -- and the other platforms are allowed to catch up in their HTML5 support in the future -- then using handwritten HTML5 (with its attendant CSS3 and JavaScript) as a universal application platform is at least on the horizon.

Productivity Benefits of a Universal Platform

A Web-based universal platform for enterprise applications can make employees more productive because business applications can be used anywhere, from any supported device, with no setup required.
This is a compelling benefit for workers who often walk around their business, as long as WiFi coverage is supplied in the facility. Examples include nurses in a hospital using a medical records system, or supervisors in a plant using an inventory system.
With the addition of wireless broadband through a 3G or 4G carrier, this becomes a compelling benefit for workers who often drive offsite, such as sales people, delivery people and construction supervisors.

Competitive Advantages of a Universal Platform

A Web-based universal platform gives a business a competitive advantage because it gives customers and partners the interactive experiences they want today on the mobile platforms they use today -- not in three years, when IT gets through its backlog.
If developers are busy maintaining desktop applications for up to three platforms, Web applications for up to five browsers, and native mobile applications for three or more smartphones and tablets, they are never going to have time to produce anything new to meet business needs and add business value.
You might think that supporting mobile devices isn't worth the effort, but your employees, partners, and customers likely disagree. Mobile today is like the Web was in 1995: You have to go there, and the sooner you do, the better you look to your users. Don't let the competition get there first.
At the same time, you don't want your mobile applications to look half-baked. This is an area where careful attention to the styles, animations, and effects available through HTML5 can add considerable polish to a Web application.

Why Use Standards?

HTML5 can be a universal platform, meaning that HTML5 applications will be able to run in cross-platform and cross-browser environments. HTML5 is widely (indeed, universally) accepted, and W3C standards mean these applications should continue to work even as hardware evolves, since the burden of hardware compatibility for these standards falls on the Web browser developers, not on your IT department.

Intel Vs Amd Technologies

The computer processor market is the battleground for a raging battle between AMD and. Intel. Read on, to learn more about the difference between AMD and Intel philosophy.
When it comes to the debate on computer processors, there is no battle bigger than the one fought between These are the 2 behemoths of the computer processor industry, and every single machine is using one of these 2 chips. With each passing year, both these companies are constantly trying to outdo each other and eat into the others market share, but at the end of each financial year it seems like nothing have changed, as both of them are firmly sticking to their guns. The history of computer processors is replete with the battle between these two giants. 
Two years ago, Intel released their own dual-core series CPUs, the Intel Core2Duo. The Core2Duo practically knocked every AMD CPU off the benchmarking charts. From overclocking capabilities to processing power, the Intel Core2Duo left AMD CPUs trailing. Since then, Intel has been always one step ahead of AMD, from quad-core CPUs to developing 45nm CPUs and beyond.
