Future versions of the famous BitTorrent client uTorrent should integrate support of video streaming. While users are moving increasingly towards streaming solutions for security issues but also no longer have to wait, the creators of uTorrent have reacted with the next evolutions of uTorrent.
Google Labs has announced the arrival of Living Stories, through a partnership with The Washington Post and The New York Times.
As Google says on its blog, the goal of Living Stories is to provide an experimental basis and renewed, a new mode of consumption of online news, an emphasis on interactivity with the reader.
After its voice search application, Google has unveiled its Google Goggles application, a visual search application, available on Android 1.6 (available on the Android Market). From a photograph taken from life, Google Goggles can recognize a monument, a painting, the logo of a company, an object or a book and will return the results to the appropriate Google search. The application can identify a monument as a local trade, based on the geolocation of the user orientation and thousands of pictures from Street View. Google Goggles can also convert a card via text recognition!
We often talk about streaming that it’s taking over Peer2Peer today. We now have Spotify, Deezer, Jiwa for free music streaming. There are of course Hulu in the U.S. for free streaming of movies and TV shows.
Google continues to expand its range of search, with search in real time. You can get a glimpse of the thing by going to Google.com, and glancing after obviously searched on the “Latest results”. Wait a little and see the results in question are updated by themselves without having nothing to do.
Practical in the sense that your search results dip into services such as MySpace, Facebook or even Twitter. Difficult to do more reactive than Twitter, I grant you…
A video showing the future service improvements is in the following of the article, for the more curious.
Google Finance is still improving. After the free and real-time quotes, we now have the news in real-time.
And these news refresh by themselves without needing to reload the page.
Another improvement: the addition of recently viewed symbols in the left column above, it is very practical and visible.
Microsoft clearly wants to walk on the way of Google by extending search features of Bing, particularly in the maps field. A version of Silverlight of Bing Maps now has a more fuller Streetside, similar to Google Street View. Bing has taken a slightly different approach by putting the pictures together in a correct 3D perspective, whilst using a gallery that is smart enough to merge the data in location-based view of the street (street-level).
Whether we like Twitter or not, we can only be amazed at the speed at which the communication service has become a must, with over 140 characters per message. According to the Global Language Monitor, the word “Twitter” is simply the most popular word in the English language in 2009. Published since 2000, the rankings are based on a proprietary software that analyzes the frequency of publication of words and phrases in the media, broadly defined (both online media as blogs and scientific publications). An algorithm then gives more or less importance to words based on a set of criteria rather obscure.
Thunderclap today in the BitTorrent community, because the famous links site Mininova has decided to remove from its index all the .torrent links to download copyrighted files! 90th most visited site in the world, Mininova has not really had a choice following a complaint by the Dutch organization that fight against piracy, BREIN, which last summer won a favorable ruling. It was that or a face a 5 million euros penalty! The near closing of Mininova could precipitate the development of a fully decentralized version of BitTorrent.
A worm redirects the users of the social network to a pornographic site, after having infected the wall too fond of those naughty pictures. Caught red-handed. This could be the motto of the latest worm that rages on Facebook, a new page that has emerged on a number of social networks.
