Did u tried this ?
If so, have you ever tried adding ur name in d friends list ? If not try it...
In yahoo you can add your own messenger id in your friends list and u can chat to ur account from ur account itself, but not in the case of gtalk.
Do u know the reason for it ???
Mi first ever article...
It was Monday, 18th Dec, 2006. The day, one of the dreams of many young guns got its vision in CIT. Yes, GOLDEN JUBLIE celebration of CIT !!! It was the visit of our honorable beloved Dr. Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam, President of India to our college for the valedictory function.
Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the czar of Indian science and technology, is the undisputed father of
Fig: The perfect stage ever set at CIT
It was late evening when Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam visited the college. We were kept waiting for the months and months to meet the epic, Abdul Kalam. The stage was looking elegant with the presence of Prof P. R. Ramakrishnan(founder of this Institute), S.R.K. Prasad(Correspondent), Prabhu(),Dr. R.Prabhakar(Principal). When Kalam went to the stage, the stage looks much more graceful.
"Dreams float on an impatient wind, A wind that wants to create a new order. An order of strength and thundering of fire." -- By Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
It was Kalam’s second visit to the college. Earlier he came in 2001, before taking up the charge of the first citizen of
Kalam used to share his ideas and goes for open talk when he addresses the gatherings of young guns. This day was no exception for this, as we, the students, were eagerly waiting for his topic. His topic was “Convergence of Technologies”. He started the speech with the greetings in TAMIL ! The key points in his speech were:
- When Nano technology and ICT meet, integrated silicon electronics, photonics are born and it can be said that material convergence will happen. With material convergence and biotechnology linked, a new science called Intelligent Bioscience will be born which would lead to a disease free, happy and more intelligent human habitat with longevity and high human capabilities.
- Convergence of ICT, aerospace and Nano technologies will emerge and revolutionize the aerospace industry and electronics leading to nano computing systems.
- Bioinformatics: The convergence of bioscience and IT into Bioinformatics has given the thrust to researchers for genomics-based drug discovery and development. Bioinformatics data play a vital role and emerging as a business model for the medical and pharmaceutical sector.
- Bio Suite: It incorporates the latest publicly known algorithms, as chosen by a panel of academic partners. It can be used by academic and R&D institutions, small and medium and large biotechnology companies.
- Nano Technology: Molecular nano technology has enormous potential for future aerospace systems and health areas. Carbon Nano tubes is hoped that such materials could revolutionize electronic design and open the space frontier by radically lowering the cost of launch to orbit. Molecular switches and circuits along with nano cell will pave the way for the next generation computers.
- Energy for future generations: The age of oil and natural gas would soon be over even within the next few decades. Hydrogen fuel and solar rays are the two modes to get clean power.
Fig: Kalam said trends and technologies are going to change and he emphasized on
World Knowledge Platform
- World Knowledge Platform: This platform will enable joint design, development, cost effective production and marketing of the knowledge products in various domains based on the core competence of partner nations to international market.
- Missions of World Knowledge Platform: The convergence of Bio, Nano and ICT is expected to touch every area of concern to the humanity.
- Energy: exploration, storage, production and conversion
- Water: treatment and desalination
- Healthcare: Diagnosis, drug delivery system
- Food: Preservation, storage and distribution
- Knowledge products: Hardware, Software and Networking Products
- Automobile: Hardware and embedded software integration
Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam visualizes CIT to have the following missions:
o CIT has to be known for its pioneering research in Chemical technology, manufacturing and Information and Communication Technology.
o Humanities discipline should be made compulsory for all students at graduate, post-graduate and Ph.D. level.
o Conceiving and conducting a special program on convergence of technology at the graduate, post-graduate and PhD level with continuous update.
o Be a partner in the World Knowledge Platform to promote world class knowledge creation, knowledge dissemination and knowledge sharing among all partner countries.
o Prepare the research road map for Tamilnadu for the next three decades.
o Create CIT a Virtual Education Hub - so that the quality education from CIT can reach out to different engineering institutions in Tamilnadu.
o Generate next generation leaders and Faculty for the multitude of engineering colleges in Tamilnadu.
It was an inspiring speech for fifteen minutes that none of the soul present in that gathering would ever forget. It was clear from the speech that Kalam wants everyone to focus on World Knowledge Platform. Kalam was sure that CIT can definitely become a member of this World Knowledge Platform.
Unfortunately, we did not have an open talk because of the parameter time, to the President of India, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. We were satisfied with Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam’s speech but we will be even more satisfied if we had an open discussion.
Quantities of BYTES !
Cannot understand ???
What are the quantities that we know regarding bytes or bits ??
We start from the basic....
Bit(1/8 of a byte), Nibble(1/2 of a byte), Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte, Terabyte.
These are the quantities that are common these days. But there are higher quantities like petabyte (PB), exabyte (EB), zettabyte (ZB), yottabyte (YB).
How Much Data Is That?
James Bond cars in FORD !!!
Ford car owners will soon have James Bond experience. You can check e-mails, download and listen to music online, and have a better navigation, without much fumbling with the buttons. Microsoft is putting its operating system in Ford cars.
What is dubbed as 'Sync' will power these features. The Bluetooth-based technology will make debut in two of Ford's models-Focus and Five Hundred series, in the year 2007. The companies will make official announcement of Sync at the Detroit auto show and the Consumer Electronics show in Las Vegas in January 2007.
Starting with the two models, Ford will extend the technology by 2008 to other cars as well, according to reports.
Cars are getting smarter these days, most of the 'high-end' (if that is the proper word here) now come equipped with input jacks for iPods in certain 2007 models, including the Edge SUV.
W-I-K-I-P-E-D-I-A ??? Heard of it ????
For mi, the foremost thing comes to mi mind is "FREE ENCYCLOPEDIA". Do you agree ?
When i googled for "history of wikipedia", the first link that comes is " History of Wikipedia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ".When i read through the article, i came across the follog points:
- a project to produce a free content encyclopedia that can be edited by anyone
- quickly replaced Nupedia
- Wikipedia was launched on its own domain, wikipedia.com, on January 15
- Google, which alone sent hundreds of new visitors to the site every day
