A world renowned tourist destination is “La Isla de la Munecas”- a Spanish name which means the Island of the dolls. This Island of dolls is situated in Mexico and as the name suggests, one expects to see a beautiful world which will leave an everlasting impression. But the reality is exactly opposite and very harsh when one discovers the thousands of mutilated ugly dolls hanging from every tree on the island.

"Microsoft, a perennial also-ran in Internet search, must have taken the same course. Facing in Google an opponent so dominant that its name has become synonymous with searching, Microsoft has chosen instead to change the nature of the competition."

A good summary of what makes it different - and useful.

This week we got a close look at HTC's latest Android device, the Hero, and saw leaked images of another, the HTC Firestone, a possible successor to the HTC Touch HD.

I made a video last year for the Swansea museum to run alongside their exhibit of Hor - a two thousand year old Egyptian Mummy. The gist of the story was the restoration and during the restoration work it was necessary to remove the mask. I decided it would be a good idea to show the inside of the mask and have it turned around to camera, so we could see the gold leaf shlne as it caught the lights.

iPhone is 480-by-320-pixel resolution at 163 ppi, according to http://www.apple.com/iphone... But if you're on a desktop, enter the 21st century by using at least 1024x768. And if that's the max your video card supports, you were cheated when you bought your computer.

I think I have some users who do. Ladies in their 50s. Drives me absolutely BATTY. Microsoft Updates site @ 800x600 alone is enough to make me want to clock out and go home. Boss, if you're seeing this, I'm using hyperbole.

"A month after Sony Ericsson introduced three high-end media phones, the company scaled things down just a bit by unveiling the midrange Sony Ericsson T715. Also released in London, the T715 sports a very Sony Ericsson slider design in galaxy silver or rogue pink. It's relatively compact (3.6 inches by 1.9 inches by 0.6 inch) and it offers a 2.2-inch display that supports 262,144 colors."

"As a basketball fan, there is nothing more I love than the idea of Old School basketball with, say, Julius Erving and his sophisticated dunking in mind. And, sure, I’m a sucker for vintage NBA logos so it was pretty fun to see the Philadelphia 76ers announce that they would be reverting to their glory-days-logo and away from their overdesigned logo. “We are connecting the past with the future,” says the press release, but let’s just call it “we are going retro, because the merchandise will sell like pancakes.”"
