Explore the Amazon with Google Street View

Nature lovers can now tour the world’s largest rainforests from the comfort of their own homes. To celebrate World Forest Day on Wednesday, Google released ground-level images of the Amazon’s Rio Negro Reserve as part of its Street View service.

Those interested in seeing the sights can take a virtual boat ride down the Rio Negro or along some of the Amazon River’s smaller tributaries. Google’s cameras also explored forest trails and the community of Tumbira, a remote village in the heart of the Amazon.

AllMyApps Aims to Be App Store for Windows

 

AllMyApps

 

Technorati Tags: app store,freeware

A French startup hopes to be the one of the first, if not the only, app store for Windows.

AllMyApps originally launched in 2009, with the idea that the site could suggest a suite of free apps that could be installed on a new PC. In December, a beta version of the company's app store entered beta; now, by the end of the first quarter, a final version will be launched

"We want to make sure it easy to manage and discover all the applications on a PC," Favre said.

For now, the site looks somewhat like other app stores on the Web: apps are broken down into different categories ("communications," "security," "office," "audio," and more). The site provides about 1,500 apps at the moment, divided between locally-installed apps and those Web apps that live in a browser.

According to Favre, AllMyApps will also share characteristics common to other app stores: consolidating a list of all of the apps a user has installed, sharing them, and auto-updating them behind the scenes. AllMyApps will go a step farther, however, and allow users to transfer their apps to other PCs, like Valve Software's Steam service, as well as back them up to the cloud.

The company's games will be casual, however; Favre said that he does not wish to take on Steam directly.

Flickr coming to Windows 7

Flickr coming to Windows 7

Thanks to CNet for this story

 

The photo service takes full advantage of Windows 7's side-scrolling interface, offering a smooth transition that takes you from recent content to tagged photos to a screen that lets you explore the larger Flickr library.* Clicking on any image takes you to a screen that offers the full array of features: you can read and add comments, as well as view location info if available. Photos with GPS tags can also be viewed on a map that will show others Flickr user pics nearby.

The app takes things a step further on the tablet, offering an innovative browsing mode for viewing or discovering groups of photos. There's also a cool faded-out copy of each photo as the background for each individual pic page. Really, words don't do this software justice, which is why Flickr has also released this demo video.

Flickr for Windows 7 and Windows Phone 7 is free and will be available to users at the end of this month.

J.K. Rowling Speaks at Harvard Commencement from Harvard Magazine on Vimeo.

In all my years I have experienced many things both cruel and kind. I have never come across anyone who has made such an impression on me as this lovely,kind Lady as she made this speech that deeply resonated in my heart.I can’t thank her enough for being the humble,  person that she is.

A remarkable, emotion-inducing speech. Absolutely brilliant and I ask everyone who comes to this page,just to take the time to listen to her.  They will not go away empty handed.

Riversimple is a revolutionary transport company, based in the UK. We are aiming to produce highly energy-efficient vehicles for personal transport.

Our vision is to create a cleaner world where our relationship with the car and fossil fuels has changed dramatically for the better, with new solutions in place for sustainable mobility.

Our first project, a two seat local car, is powered by
