Google Enhances Street View With User Photos
Published on February 28th, 2010.
Google has launched a competitor or counterpart to Microsoft's Photosynth, which employs user-contributed photos of much-photographed sites to supplement the street-level view in an immersive way. Google's offering is called simply Navigate through User Photos, and unlike Photosynth — which requires Sliverlight and therefore is not available on Linux — is implemented in Flash. This YouTube video (also embedded at the link above) offers a quick tour of the new feature, which can use photos uploaded to Panoramico, Flickr, and Picasa.

How to Choose a Web Developer in the UK?
Published on February 28th, 2010.
Many talented freelancers and web development firms offer their services in the UK and generally advertise themselves as a trusted partner that can build websites that meet the client’s demands. With hundreds of people or companies to work with, it can be tough to find a web developer that can fulfill your objectives without taking a huge toll on your budget. The trick is to look at the company or individual in four different angles and draw up a conclusion based on the strength of all the angles.
Evaluate their Website
The website of the web developer or company should always be your first impression. Do not only judge a website on your personal taste, but also on how other visitors may see the design. If you think that the content isn’t matching the design and you feel that others will be confused, then you should start looking for another web developer or team. You can still take a closer look at the other three angles if you think that others may appreciate their website.
See the Services Offered
Some website companies are more talented than others, but may also charge more as well. What is most important is that the services offered meet the demands of your site so be sure that you have done all of the planning regarding your website before setting out to find a potential web developer. Think about the most complicated elements of the site and research what skills or services are needed to bring these concepts to reality. If your site is going to be relatively straight forward, you can always settle for smaller web companies that offer basic services at a more affordable price.
Understand their Expertise and Reputation
No matter how many services are being offered, two important factors for a good choice are the company’s expertise in these services and how well they served others in the past. Even if their website doesn’t make a huge impression, the other sites the web developer made may stand out. Look for the portfolio section and see how the company or individual handles the requests of other clients. Do some background research as well to see if there are others evaluating their services.
Compare their Support and Pricing with their competitors
Even when looking at each company in those three angles, you are bound to have multiple options in the shortlist. The final deciding factor is their design rates. Some companies may dip very low in the rates, but fail to deliver in support areas which should also be taken into consideration. Finished outputs will be declared as final, but that doesn’t mean that the site will no longer update when it is hosted.
Finding a web developer or company that you can really partner with at a decent rate is the best way to go. These are the kinds of individuals that put their objectives in-line with your objectives even after the project is finished. See their support policies and go with the choice that fits your budget and has a good enough reputation in getting the job done.

Inhabitat’s Week in Green: Solar cars, solar boats, solar… gold?
Published on February 28th, 2010.
Speaking of sun-powered vehicles, Hungarian auto company Antro has just unveiled plans to create an out-there yet undeniably cool solar-powered car that splits into two vehicles. And for those looking to ride the seas in style, take a long, hard look at this giant solar boat. Then again, why ride a conventional vehicle when you could hop aboard this insane futurictic crawler town on wheels? Too bad it's made out of LEGOs.
Finally, we brought to light several illuminating energy projects: researchers have found a way to generate electricity by shining light on tiny gold nanoparticles, opening the door for self-powered molecular machines, and Phillips unveiled a blooming solar street lamp that soaks up energy during the day and uses it to light up the night.

New Wave of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria
Published on February 28th, 2010.
reporter writes "New strains of 'Gram-negative' bacteria have become resistant to all safe antibiotics. Though methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is the best-known antibiotic-resistant germ, the new class of resistant bacteria could be more dangerous still. 'The bacteria, classified as Gram-negative because of their reaction to the so-called Gram stain test, can cause severe pneumonia and infections of the urinary tract, bloodstream, and other parts of the body. Their cell structure makes them more difficult to attack with antibiotics than Gram-positive organisms like MRSA.' The only antibiotics — colistin and polymyxin B — that still have efficacy against Gram-negative bacteria produce dangerous side effects: kidney damage and nerve damage. Patients who are infected with Gram-negative bacteria must make the unsavory choice between life with kidney damage or death with intact kidneys. Recently, some new strains of Gram-negative bacteria have shown resistance against even colistin and polymyxin B. Infection with these new strains typically means death for the patient."

Schooling Microsoft On Random Browser Selection
Published on February 28th, 2010.
Rob Weir got wind that a Slovakian tech site had been discussing the non-randomness of Microsoft's intended-to-be-random browser choice screen, which went into effect on European Windows 7 systems last week. He did some testing and found that indeed the order in which the five browser choices appear on the selection screen is far from random — though probably not intentionally slanted. He then proceeds to give Microsoft a lesson in random-shuffle algorithms. "This computational problem has been known since the earliest days of computing. There are 5 well-known approaches: 3 good solutions, 1 acceptable solution that is slower than necessary and 1 bad approach that doesn’t really work. Microsoft appears to have picked the bad approach. But I do not believe there is some nefarious intent to this bug. It is more in the nature of a 'naive algorithm,' like the bubble sort, that inexperienced programmers inevitably will fall upon when solving a given problem. I bet if we gave this same problem to 100 freshmen computer science majors, at least 1 of them would make the same mistake. But with education and experience, one learns about these things. And one of the things one learns early on is to reach for Knuth. ... The lesson here is that getting randomness on a computer cannot be left to chance. You cannot just throw Math.random() at a problem and stir the pot and expect good results."

Volkswagen Bora Radio Installation Help
Published on February 28th, 2010.
In this article we shall learn How to Remove the Car Radio in a Bora. Though this car is not very popular in Asian countries like India and China this Bora is very popular in Europe. Automobile king Volkwagen introduced this car to the European market. Golf and Jetta are nothing but other names of Bora. There exists lot of similarities between these cars. They come with powerful audio system too. However for those wanting to replaced factory installed one with a new radio we should first learn how to remove the car radio in a Bora.
This article we have also outlined some useful tips and suggestions for doing this job better. This removal of radio can be done in three simple steps. However there are some specific tools which have to be used for this purpose. We mainly require removal tools of radio especially for double din type.
These tools cannot be fabricated easily in house. So we need to purchase and keep them ready. This procedure mentioned below is common for all Bora cars. They share few common features like that of Double din which enables installation of large stereos. That is why we employ special tools for doing this radio system removal job.
The first step involves opening the car door. Carefully observe the stereo. We will be able to see provisions where we can insert and fix keys. These provisions are just small slots that are usually flat. The removal keys have notches. The keys have to be slided such that these notches exactly fit into the slots on the stereo. There will be totally four such slots with two on either side. So two keys should be fitted in left and other two in right hand slide. Accordingly these notches will be pointing in the opposite direction.
When a click sound is heard as we insert the keys into the provisions and slots in stereo it means the removal keys have fitted perfectly or else keep trying till the click sound is heard. In the next step we should use both our hands to pull back the keys or tools. As we do this we will see that the stereo becomes detached from the dash board and is slided out along with the keys.
The last and third step is very important. As we take out the stereo with one hand with the other hand plugging connection of antenna lead is disconnected. We also unplug the compact disc changer. We should also remove the connection of GPS leads. Finally the harness for wiring is disconnected after which the clips get released.
Here are few useful tips. We should always ensure that we buy the correct tools for removal . Tools that are available in stereo shops nearby may not be genuine. So we need to purchase from a Volkwagen retail shop. The simplest thing would be to buy the removal tools on line. The next useful suggestion would be when we take out the harness for wiring be sure not to switch on the key for ignition of engine.
Thus we have learnt How to Remove the Car Radio in a Bora.

After disconnecting the battery, the door can be opened and face the stereo. Look at the stereo carefully. You will notice that each of the four corners is small with flat slots. These slots are so small that a key must be inserted into it. Every key has a kind of notch that is very small in size. Slide in the notch of these keys into the slots that are provided at the corner of the radio. Do it in a way that the keys in the left have its notch pointed towards the right and similarly the right keys pointing toward the left.
After inserting the keys in the proper direction, slide it in. This will make you possible to push the tools for radio removal. Push it in till there is a click. Once the tools click in place, pull the tools out with the help of both the hands. This will make the stereo to slide out tool remove it and place it outside the dash. Once the stereo is out, hold it in one hand. Then, remove the plugs connecting antenna lead, the CD changer as well as the GPS leads in case they are present. Also remove the wiring harness with the help of hands and pop the clips that are on top of the harness.
These tools that are used for removing the radio are generally available in all shops that sell stereos and other accessories for the car. Some tools specially designed for Volkswagen might also be available. The removal and disconnection of the battery may not be necessary always in this process. This can be avoided if the key is not put in the ignition. The key must never be inserted while removing the harness.
There are some instructions on how to remove the car radio in Bora along with some tips and warnings in this article. These can be followed with ease.

But how to hook up un HD radio to your car?
Generally satellite radios are not free of cost they require some amount of initial payment plus the monthly charges. But these HD radios are fully free of cost and there is no kind of fee other than for installation. This is because the HD radio can be considered as an optional one. This needs to be bought separately.
Electrical tape is very important while doing this process as it is very essential for insulation or any other kind of taping purpose as it is one of the most important step of safety measures in process. The initial step to be done is to remove the car battery’s negative terminal from it. The reason for this is also the same. as it is one of the most important step of safety measures in process.
The antenna’s jack is connected to HD radio this is in turn connected to the antenna of the car. There is no necessity to connect it to the head of the input of the antenna. The black wire is to be connected to the black port and in the same way a yellow one to the yellow port. This set should be led to the chassis of the car.
A paint free clean location is chosen first. There are pieces that come along with wiring and it can be used. The yellow line is then connected to the terminal which has a supply of 12 v . it is a constant supply. It also consists of the inline for the fuse. A cable called the IP – BUS cable is connected with the cable. This is a blue converter. The other end of this is connected to the other end of the head unit. If there is a multi player then one can even fix it to that. The black color in the HD radio indicates the connector’s presence.
All the white and blue wires that are coming out off it should be properly connected and it must be well secured. The documentation of the car can be cross checked with this one.
