A poster can speak, would you believe it? Recently the notice boards of Liverpool UK covered with amazing posters which can playback music. This poster is about a musical show. There are some thumbnail images placed in the poster and if someone touches it, it will play a music. Also this poster allows you to book your seat to the musical show. There's an another thumbnail button and when pressed it will play back your seat number.
This new poster is the next generation of the posters. These posters can placed like other posters on notice boards. This poster called as "Listening Post" . This poster made in the normal paper with a printed circuit.

Listening Post is really like a normal poster but it made out from a conductive paint. All the parts including graphics, letters of this poster is also a part of this circuit. Solar power used as the energy source for this poster and used solar powered batteries. These batteries also printed on the poster which is unnoticeable. The speaker of this poster also printed on the poster (There is a special technique used to thick the poster, then a speaker can easily place).  If the speaker volume too low then there's a headphone jack also.

There are some ongoing experiments to reduce the cost of this poster and also researching the ways to increase interaction this with people. One technique already added is the  "Like" button. People can vote the "Like"  and which will store in the circuit. Later, those votes can be counted.

Is It Necessary to Eject before Remove the Flash Drive ?

USB flash drives are very common among all the computer users to travel data. If you want to move any kinds of computer data like images, videos and songs one computer to another, most of the time we'll use flash drives (Pen Drive). 

There is a Myth among computer users that it is necessary to eject ("Eject" means go to task bar then click "Remove Hardware" and select the correct flash drive and click "Eject")  before remove the flash drive from the computer.  These are some rumors that if you remove the flash drive without eject it,

1. All the data in the flash drive may lose
2. Flash drive or the computer may damage

Keep the Computer without Shutdown Good or Bad

Keep the Computer without Shutdown Good or BadShut down the computer is one of the computer action that you may do all the time when using the computer. The question is "Is it essential to Shutdown the computer all the time after you are using your PC ? ". My answer is "Not always" (Simply NO). 

The computer does need to rest but not every day. So you don't need to shut down the computer after you are using it daily. You may know that the "Server" computers may have works months or maybe years continuously without shutdown. There are so many inbuilt techniques in the computer to reduce the generating heat when it works (Ex: Cooling fans). Most of the computer problem occurs because of the decline of its parts. 

Most of the modern computer parts and component manufacture to works longer period of time continuously without decline. When you are buying a computer, you may get a two year warranty or three years warranty etc... Warranty period means the eligible period of the computer that can work continuously without Shutdown.

 Always shut down the computer just save your electricity bill. Other than that there's no need to shut down the computer always.

Where Apple Nokia Samsung Dell Hp Sony Manufacture? in Taiwan?

Apple Nokia Samsung Dell Hp Sony Manufacture in Taiwan

Samsung Galaxy , IBM machines, Sony Ericsson Mobiles, Apple iPod, HP pavilion laptops, Dell laptops, Cisco, Acer laptops, Blackberry mobiles, Panasonic TVs…

In above list expressed some of the electric items that we use in day today life. Most of them are very famous brands in the market. Do you know where this all “Original Equipment Manufacturers” are? Will you believe all these electric items originally manufacture in just only 10 companies? I also shocked but that is true that all the famous electric items in the world manufacture just only in 10 companies.

Famous “Foxconn” in Tucheng, Taiwan is the largest company among these 10 companies (Foxconn has motherboard with their brand name).  The electric items and brands manufactures in the Foxconn is unthinkable.

Some of electric items that are manufacture in Foxconn are Dell laptops, Apple iPod, Apple iPad, Apple iPhones, Acer laptops, Nokia phones, HP laptops, Amazon Kindler, Nintendo console, Intel chips, Sony Ericsson (SONY) phones and Cisco routers etc.  

The other main EMC (electronics manufacturing services) provider’s headquarters,

• FoxConn - Thaiwan       
• Celestica - Canada
• Flextronics - Singapore
• Compal - Taiwan
• Jabil - United States
• Inventec - Taiwan
• Quanta Computer- Taiwan
• Wistron - Taiwan
• TPV - Hong Kong, China
• Sanmina SCI - United States

You can see most of the company’s headquarters are placed in China, Taiwan area, some of the companies are in USA but the workshop of those companies also placed in China area.  Less labor cost is the main reason those companies placed in those areas.

Though these EMC companies manufacture lots of items, the revenue share gain from these companies are very less. As an example think about a Apple iPod: the idea of the iPod, Design, Circuit Design, Software are install by the Apple company so it will gain a High revenue share. EMC companies just only do physical manufacture the electronic physical device.

As most of this biggest EMC companies placed in Taiwan and China, It will help them to create duplicate low quality mobile phones, iPods etc because they can gain most of the technical secrets among these companies.

France Wide Web Minitel is Shutdown

Online banking, online booking and many more online things spread around the world because of internet. But would you believe, in 1978 there’s a network for online things in France?  It is called France-Wide-Web and also called “Minitel”.

In earlier days, the purpose of this Minitel is to do banking, shopping, connect to air and rail service departments and also connect with cable TV services etc in online by using a keyboard and monitor. This was very successful at that time and this was the best communication network before originate internet.  Monitor, key board, modem and the telephone connection are the main part of Minitel network. Transaction media is telephone lines and only “Text” will be visible in the monitor. Once you ordered a Minitel system it comes with the telephone and connection.

Best features of this Minitel,

• Order the needed things from shopping store.
• Booked the air and train tickets.
• Find any telephone number from online telephone directory.
• Do online banking.
• Credit card payments.
• Email box

I think you can’t imagine this kind of facilities in 1978, but Frenchmen got the chance to do work from online and in 1982 whole country covered by this Minitel network. At that time Minitel is one of the greatest technical equipment for whole world because there’s no internet at that time.

Some of the countries copied this Minitel and constructed their own networks using Minitel technology,

• British – Prestel
• Germany – BTX
• Canada – Alex Tel
• South Africa – Bel tel
• USA – Community Link
• Italy – Video Tel

After spreading the internet around the world, most of the countries are shutdown the Minitel systems.  But French people not shutdown it and keep using this Minitel after the internet comes. Even in 2010 Minitel earned like 30 Million Euros with 10 Million users.  

In 2012 June 30^th is the last day of Minitel and the owners of Minitel decided to shutdown this network. Some reasons for this decision is,

• Further extension for Minitel is really hard
• Internet more flexible than Minitel
• The users count getting lower and lower

As internet users, we cannot forget the origin of online works Minitel. The Minitel technology is historical and good bye Minitel.
