When I looked at this photo of Virgin Galactic’s ship, I thought it was some part of a science fiction movie. But, it isn’t. It is actually a photo of reality invented out of sci-fi. Space came just a little bit closer for the everyman this week, as Virgin Galactic’s ship made one 1,470kph-leap towards space in its first successful flying rocket test.
Apple got its own way of stunning customers. Had you ever thought of a reward of $10,000?
The 50 billionth app download is about to happen, and Apple wants to reward the receiver with a $10,000 (around £6,400/AUS$9,740) App Store gift card. Nice, huh? We think so.
You might or might not be a busy person who deals with a lot of emails with attachments everyday but automatically moving your Gmail or outlook attachments to your Google Drive or Dropbox does save you a lot of time.

Last month Google released the note taking app called Google keep for Android to quickly jot down your ideas and keep track of things while on the go with your Android device or on the web.
This simple note taking App organizes everything in a colorful tile interface. Each one shows you a preview of each note, whether it’s a photo, a to-do list, a single task, a saved webpage or whatever else. You can organize each to re-prioritize as needed, and you can add new notes with your voice. This also saves your notes in Google drive making sure it is available anywhere you go.
If you started to laugh before you started to read this post, no offence is taken. Because, I too laughed when I read this article in TechRadar. Already, the tech-panic phenomena has started for Google glass.
Tech-panic has happened all over the history. Remember how people reacted when the electricity was invented? how they jumped away when they watched the first motion picture? The same fate is going to occur for Google glass too. Already, people started to speak how this HD projection could cause eye cancer but “Google glass going to kill us” is really funny and I dunno whether he meant for that too. He has added a video link and here is that.
Do you remember the feature that boosted the growth of Facebook in its early days? It is nothing but the tagging people feature. So, today Instagram launches photo tagging, the feature that fueled Facebook’s early growth. New Instagram iOS and Android updates rolling out now let you tag any person or brand in your own photos, which then automatically show up in the “Photos Of You” section of their profile.
You might or might not have heard that Google has finally released the set of Web fonts it uses for the offline purposes. Although many people argued that these fonts are already available offline under different names, here is something they can’t argue about.
Did your eyes widened up when they saw all those incredible movies of James Cameron? Did you gasp in wonder when you heared that his next movies will be shot in the deepest spot in ocean? But, if you are a technology geek too, here is your chance to watch a marvel that actually belongs to the geeks and scientists.
The web world has started to move into a new level of internet services powered with HTML 5 which allows the websites to be installed and behave like the native apps of your system. But, to launch all those apps? There is not an easy way to do it other than browsing for it. But Google is finally going to make it a lot easier.
Google always said that its Chromebooks were “for sharing,” but even though they always had a guest mode, they weren’t necessarily set up to be used as public Internet kiosks. Google is changing that with the launch of the new and imaginatively named “Managed Public Sessions” feature. Google says this new feature, which lets you turn your Chrome OS device into an Internet kiosk, “delivers a highly customizable experience for both customers and employees without requiring a login.”
