Panasonic announced a new home-use fluorescent lamp that is able to automatically adjust the brightness depending on the luminance in the room it’s installed in.
Panasonic claims they are the first company to come up with such a technology. It actually a fluorescent light fixture that's extra energy efficient. Responding to ambient light (from the sun), the light will adjust its output accordingly to save electricity while maintaining brightness.
It has a brightness sensor and a remote control. It can detect and constantly maintain brightness in an area covering a 3m diameter in rooms with ceilings as high as 2.4m.
The Auto-Eco Light-Control Twin Pa , its full glorious name, boasts an energy savings of up to 62% with its brightness automation
The company also promises that buyers will not notice the automatic adjustments.
On March 1, Japan will get the lamp in two versions (74W for $360 and 89W for $390). The company will produce 10,000 units of each model. And sooner or later they are going to release in other parts of the world. |

 With all different browsers used world wide and Internet booming to an astonishing 1 billion Internet users and growing in just December 2008 according to a report by ComScore (an Internet market research company), an increasing number of engineers and developers start coding their own browser, trying to promote them to us to use them. And above all the organization which develops these browsers are brawling among themselves The popular one that was released recently was the speedy and secure Google Chrome Browser.
 A report done by Net Applications said that Microsoft Internet Explorer currently rules the browser market with 68.15% of share and Mozilla Firefox tailing far behind with only 21.34%. And remaining market share is reserved by Safari & Opera and Google chrome So what will happen in 2009? Well, the recent beta release of the Internet Explorer 8 has already marked the stiff competition which Microsoft is trying very hard to stay on top of the browser market. Will the others (Apple, Mozilla or Opera) come out with their new versions this year? lets wait and see and as a frequent internet user i am expecting lot more than this, in the browsing market. |

 Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick. It has got a resource for information, useful links, breaking news and status messages from your friends or companies you’re interested in. But if you have a large network or if you’re following a lot of stream, it’s not easy to filter out what’s important or relevant to you from the heaps of short messages that you’re continuously being bombarded with.
Here comes to your rescue. Filttr, a new project from a department of web hosting company Racked Hosting, that aims to enhance your Twitter experience with a client that automatically filters content from your followers using an algorithm dubbed FLAI (Filttr Artificial Intelligence) and offers a whole lot of additional features which might also come in handy.
When you sign up for the service ( you need to enter your Twitter credentials so that’s up to you), Filttr will analyze any data it can find based on your account settings and history in order to determine what you’re most interested in. Once the analysis is done, you’ll be presented with a timeline on a web-based or Adobe AIR powered desktop application (there’s even full support for IM and a mobile site) that essentially filters content which Filttr assumes you don’t want to read.
Even if just for the extra features, you should most definitely check out Filttr if you’re a regular Twitter user. |
