Yahoo Desktop, 1/2 Mile Skyscraper, Sprint/Nextel Merger, Google Suggest, iPod Flash?, Fast DDR, Accona vs. Google, SLI, etc.
So, Google's hottest and newest download is Google Desktop. I've been personally been using it since beta (which it still in) and it's well worth the download. Ditch Windows Explorer, this program uses the same technology as Google's servers do. And, apparently, ever one else wants in. Yahoo, AskJeeves, and Microsoft should all have beta out before year's end. Read more on this @ Dan Huard's site. TechWeb.
Samsung won a bid to build the worlds largest skyscraper. Over a half-mile tall (2,640 feet). Total cost: $306 million. Digg Post.
It's been less than a week; and Sprint and Nextel have already agreed to a merger! The Wall Street Journal reported moments ago that the two companies have tentatively agreed to join forces, with Sprint swapping 1.3 of its shares for every Nextel share. Endgadget.
Google Suggest is Google's latest addition to their array of web-searching technology. This one tries to guess what you're typing before you actually finish. Google Blog. Digg Post.
So... we will see an iPod Flash mid-January? Toshiba announced today that they will begin selling flash memory to Apple. Digg Post.
Samsung's new DDR3 DRAM reduces power consumption by 50 percent and increases memory capacity and efficiency while doubling performance. The company plans to begin production of the 512 MB DDR3 DRAM next year. Digg Post.
Accona, China's premier search engine that is being endorsed by Bill Clinton, is based on AI, which supposedly makes it return greater results than Google. Obviously Accona needs some work on its AI function or it will become like the countless others who have dared to face Google. Digg Post.
SLI? Not, good, says Dan Huard. It's just a big waste of money!
**So, I've been doing a lot of Digging over @ digg.com, so most of my post will have digg links to my diggs (or others, although most will be mine); it just makes my life a little easier.
