Finally Google+ open to all
By: Gary Johnson | September 20, 2011
Earlier today we wondered if users were beginning to abandon Google’s new social network experiment, after it seemed that activity had dropped off recently. Now we can tell you that Finally Google+ open to all.
The new site had racked up around twenty million users since it started its invitation only trial, and now the search engine giant has opened it up to the public. The Guardian is reporting that this could be a big moment as the new kid on the block takes on Facebook and Twitter. It has a way to go before it can boast the same amount of users though, as Facebook has around 800 million users with Twitter over 100 million.
Google+ allows users to easily share content with only the friends they want too via its Circles feature. Content can be made public or just shared with one person, family, or close friends. It is varies from what Twitter can offer as well with users being able to share posts of unlimited length. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: Product-Reviews
Economia Republicii Populare Chineze
Economia Republicii Populare Chineze este a doua economie naţională la nivel mondial (urmându-i Statelor Unite ale Americii şi fiind urmată de Japonia). Totodată, aceasta este economia majoră cu cea mai rapidă creştere, cu o medie a procentului de creştere de 10% pe parcursul ultimilor 30 de ani.
Dezvoltarea economică în China are loc sub conducerea Partidului Comunist Chinez în baza planurilor cincinale. În urma tempourilor de creştere ecomonică rapidă, guvernul a hotărât să menţină creşterea în jurul a 8-9 % pe an. Cu ajutorul investiţiilor externe, din care aproximativ 80% sunt investiţiile chinezilor cu trai permanent peste hotare, conform planurilor PCC în 2010 economia Chinei ar trebui să întreacă economia SUA.
În primele etape creştererea economică s-a datorat agriculturii, care a fost scutită de multe limitări impuse în epoca Mao. Partidul încuraja producţia, manufactura la scară largă. Astfel în ţară au apărut numeroase manufacturi, care creau un deficit de resurse datorită utilizării iraţionale. Intreprinderile de stat rămâneau adesea falimentare. Ca să facă faţă schimbărilor de structură, guvernul reformează sistemul educaţional, trimite studenţii peste hotare, în special Japonia şi SUA, favorizează importul de tehnologii. Are loc dezvoltarea tehnologiilor informaţionale, telecomunicaţiilor, biotehnologiilor, sectorului medical. În districtul Haidian, la nord de Beijing a fost creată Silicon Valley chineză. Dezvoltarea economică are şi efecte secundare, în zonele rurale, nivelul şomajului depăşeşte de 2 ori indicii oficiali de 4,6 %. Neoficial, China favorizează emigraţia.
Silicon Valley of India
The Silicon Valley of India is a nickname of the Indian city of Bangalore. The name signifies Bangalore's status as a hub for information technology (IT) companies in India and is a comparative reference to the original Silicon Valley, based around Santa Clara Valley, California, a major hub for IT companies in the United States. One of earliest mentions of this sobriquet occurred in late 1980s in the Indian Express.[1] The more prevalent application of the nickname Bangalore began in the 1990s[2] based on a concentration of firms specialising in Research and Development (R&D),electronics and software production.
[edit]History
The Electronics City was the brainchild of R. K. Baliga. He was the first Chairman and Managing Director of Karnataka State Electronics Development Corporation (in the 1976 the government agency was created to expand the electronics industry in the state of Karnataka). Baliga proposed the concept of developing the electronic city in the 1970s. The agency purchased 335 acres (1.36 km2) of land 18 km south of Bangalore for its Electronics City project, which was meant to establish an industrial park in Bangalore. Notwithstanding complaints by the industrial park's tenants on the condition of the roads, power and water availability, KEONICS claimed initially that the title of Silicon Valley of India belonged to the city's Electronics City campus.[2] As part of its promotion of this concept, KEONICS distributed reprints of an article entitled "Can Bangalore become India's Silicon Valley" that first appeared in "Plus: The Total Computer Magazine".
The article made references to studies of Bangalore published by United States Agency for International Development (USAID) that favourably evaluated Bangalore's capacity to grow into a high technology hub, similar to the Silicon Valley. The publication also published interviews with IT industry professionals on the state of the IT industry in Bangalore and their perceptions of what lay ahead in the future. Selected quotes from the interviews included:
If the Centre looks at Bangalore to be made into Silicon Valley, it would certainly become the Silicon Valley; If you are talking of a Silicon Valley kind of atmosphere, then Bangalore already has it, but if you are talking of a product a day, then we are far from it; Bangalore is certainly emerging as a software and R&D subcontracting centre for multinationals; It is not an unreasonable comparison to make between Bangalore city and Silicon Valley; Bangalore has the ingredients to become Silicon Valley... It is probably the only city in India that could become one.[2]
The turn of the millennium witnessed the growth of Internet based technologies which resulted in the dotcom boom. Bangalore's IT industry grew during this period with the establishment of local and foreign IT companies. In 2001, BusinessWeek published an article entitled "India's Silicon Valley" which traced the growth of the IT industry in India and particularly in Bangalore. The use of the term "Silicon Valley of India" to refer to Bangalore grew in local media and as time progressed, in international media too. An article entitled "Is the Next Silicon Valley Taking Root in Bangalore?" appeared in the New York Times in 2006[3] Indeed, some articles in the western media wondered if the original Silicon Valley would one day be functionally replaced by Bangalore[4] - wiki

Europe English
The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the EU rather than German which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five year phase-in plan that would be known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of the "k". This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have 1 less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like "fotograf" 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be ekspekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent "e"s in the language is disgraseful, and they should go away.
By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v". During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.
After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi to understand ech ozer. Ze drem vil finali kum tru! And zen world!
