Xbox Portable coming soon?

Rumors abound: the next portable device from Microsoft could combine a digital media player (like Zune) and a portable gaming device (like Sony's PSP or Nintendo's DS lineup) in a single device with a high-def touch screen. TeamXbox goes a little dreamy with the speculation, suggesting that this gadget might have built-in WiMax and connectivity to the MyPhone data storage and synchronization services that Microsoft announced for Windows Mobile 6.5.

Computation Sensation


Wolfram Research founder Stephen Wolfram publicly debuted his company's online "computational knowledge engine".
The Wolfram Alpha engine is a Web service designed to process data from controlled, vetted sources of data -- many not on the Web -- then present the results in a way that lets people dig deeper into the subject. It's something of a cross between a graphing calculator, repositories of scientific data, and a system to interpret questions posed in human terms.
For example, people can ask about the molecular weight of caffeine, about the location of a gene in the human genome, the number of people named Andrew born in a particular year, the amount of fish produced in France, the life expectancy of 40-year-olds, and the performance of Microsoft stock -- and then dig into the results.

Microsoft's Porn Browser

Microsoft has created a web browser with a feature nicknamed 'porn mode' that allows users to access websites without leaving a trace of the surfing habits on their computers.
With Internet Explorer 8 and its 'InPrivateBrowsing' mode, the setting is activated and other people using the computer cannot see which sites have been accessed.
Although other users will not be able to see the websites authorities such as the police will have access if necessary.
