Another week, another batch of nerdery from PCWorld GeekTech blog: this week we look at odd malware, goodies from IDF, hack linux Tablet and a couple of events in the world of robotics. So put on a t-shirt nerdiest, get a cup of coffee and grab your ears Spock. It's this week in GeekTech.
Fourm Intel Developer is darn fun
Intel held its annual Conference TO IDF in San Francisco this week and finally announced transporting date (and I use the term "date of" loosely) for their upcoming Sandy Bridge processors Intel also announced the official name for Sandy Bridge: "Second-Generation Intel Core processor". My that just rolls the tip of tongue, right?
Among other products on the show, THE IDF funky rotation netbook varieties from Dell. Looks cool--even useful--but I have to wonder how much abuse that you will be able to take.
Troyan, you'll blackmail
The malware is not fun, but it is especially insidious.New Trojan from Japan will monitor your browsing habits, and it would be in a public place your browsing history, um, specific sites, if you are paying.So, believe it or not, this is only the second strange Trojan from Japan, we have seen in recent weeks: in the past month we have noticed one, deleted files and replace the image files of various underwater creatures go figure.
Hack is based on the Chumby gadget in Linux Tablet on the cheap
Some enterprising soul took Insignia Infocast based Chumby gadget--and managed to turn it into a Linux tablet varieties.Of course, this is not true, but the price is right: Infocast runs for $ 170, compared to $ 500 for the iPad. whether financial savings worth the time to hack Infocast is up to you to decide.
Touchy Feely, blood clot Busting robots will come!
We looked at several events in robotics last week.UC Berkeley researchers has developed technology will feel robots and actually how objects with a lighter tone. so maybe Jetsons-style chorebot not so far off after all?
At the same time as you like to have a nanobot, surfing through your blood vessels? if you are from the Institute of Robotics and intelligent systems, you probably don't mind.OctoMag system is developed injects tiny robot half a millimeter in length in your blood: a set of magnets in large roll guide nanobot through your blood vessels, allowing you to perform procedures such as blood clots of small vessels in your eyes.
A little freaky? maybe. Feat of modern medicine? Heck Yeah.
