This key breakthrough Google Chrome OS

Although not the first, Chrome the OS that was carried by Google as a milestone in the rise of web-based operating systems. In its official blog, Google's developers call Chrome the OS with a base of open source operating system for all people who spent almost all his time on the internet.

"With Chrome OS, every application is a web application," said Sundar Pichai, vice president of product management for Google in a press conference in Mountain View, California, USA, Thursday (19/11). So, Chrome OS will not run local applications such as PC operating systems generally. All documents and data is also stored on Internet servers.

This was a key breakthrough that do Chrome OS. All activities carried out by the browser and there is no conventional desktop applications. This means that users do not need ribet to install, manage, and update itself.

The second breakthrough that will be Google in Chrome the OS is a matter of security. Because all roads in the web application, users do not need to think about whether the application is to be trusted or not. Each completed application sandbox (such secret keys) are unique, making it hard malware infects a computer. The operating system will also check and recovery each time you reboot.

In addition, the speed is also an obsession Google in Chrome the OS. Computing processes that do not need to be removed, each operation is optimized and performed in parallel. Accelerating time booting one target with a combination of optimal hardware specifications. "It took seven seconds for the Chrome OS to boot," Pichai said.

Sola application performance should not worry because it runs on Chrome browser that supports HTML5 standard and JavaScript engines that are claimed currently capable of executing Java code to 39 times Internet Explorer 8.

"We want to work very fast, fun system to use. We want you to press the button on to turn it on immediately and quickly surf the web as soon as possible," said Matt Papakipos, technical director of Chrome the OS.

Oscars' Best Picture Race: 10 in 2010

LOS ANGELES - There will be 10, count 'em 10, nominees for best picture when the nominations for the 82nd Annual Academy Awards are announced February 2.

In a move designed to let more movies share in the limelight that surrounds the contenders for Hollywood's top award, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences on Wednesday announced a rule change that doubles the number of movies that will be welcomed into the best picture category.

Academy president Sid Ganis characterized the move as a "return to the past" when the Academy regularly spread its largesse out among 10 -- and sometimes even more -- best picture nominees.

Speaking to the media at the Academy's Samuel Goldwyn Theater, Ganis on Wednesday was flanked by posters listing the 10 nominees for 1939 -- widely regarded as the high-water mark for quality studio releases. That year, the lineup ranged from Westerns ("Stagecoach") to sophisticated comedies ("Ninotchka") to melodramas ("Dark Victory") to all-time classics like "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," "The Wizard of Oz" and eventual winner "Gone With the Wind."

"Suppose you had to narrow that field down to five nominees? Which of these films would you keep? Whichever five movies you selected, you'd be losing five extraordinary films," Ganis asked rhetorically.

While the Academy hasn't nominated 10 films since 1943, momentum for the course correction grew out of this year's Oscar show. Its producers, Larry Mark and Bill Condon, made a concerted effort to acknowledge the whole range of movies produced during the past year in an effort to reach out to a wider audience.

In their post-show autopsy, they encouraged the Academy to consider opening up the best picture category, and the committee that reviewed the show championed the idea, recommending it to the board, which approved the change with virtually no opposition.

The move also comes in the wake of the howls of outrage from fans of last year's "The Dark Knight," which earned eight nominations but didn't crack the best picture circle. Arguably, a wider field of nominees would have included that movie, which also had a lot of critics in its corner. And if more popular entertainments are in the running for the big prize, that could in turn benefit the Oscarcast ratings, which have been in general decline, although they did experience an uptick in February.

Ganis acknowledged that "in discussions about this, we talked about what might have happened, and I would not be telling you the truth if I said the words 'Dark Knight' did not come up."

One idea that didn't fly in the internal discussions: Arriving at 10 pictures by nominating five dramas and five comedies, a la the Golden Globes.

"It's about the best picture -- not the best something picture," Ganis said. "It's a singular honor."

By sticking to one best picture category, the Academy also avoids being drawn into debates about whether a given film is properly considered a comedy or a drama. But Ganis did suggest that comedies, continually short-changed come Oscar time, could benefit.

"In casting a wider net, who knows what's going to turn up," he said. "Maybe even a comedy in that group of 10."

Ganis, who will step down as Academy president this summer after four consecutive terms, insisted that having 10 noms "does not dilute" the honor. Pointing out that about 300 films are eligible each year -- in 2008, the number that qualified for best picture consideration was 281 -- he argued that to be one of 10 nominees is still an achievement.

Academy executive director Bruce Davis also said that the board was given assurances that including 10 best picture nominees would not result in a longer show. That assurance will be put to the test when the Oscars take place March 7.

Ninja Assassin

There are several ways a movie can generate excitement ahead of its release. For example, it might be based on an intellectual property that has a strong and loyal following. Or it might be the latest work from an acclaimed director or exciting acting talent. Or it might represent a startling new technical innovation in movie-making. Or alternatively it might have platoons of ninjas in it, lobbing mountains of shuriken at one another, and generally busting out some choice fighting moves. As the does-what-it-says-on-the-tin title indicates, Ninja Assassin very much falls into this exclusive latter category. Directed by V For Vendetta’s James McTeigue and produced by Joel Silver and the Wachowski Brothers, Ninja Assassin sees South Korean pop star Rain hooking up with Pirates of the Caribbean actress Naomie Harris to take on the ninja hordes.

Coverage problems force O2 to accelerate network improvement plans - £30m to be added before Christmas

O2 has added £100m in additional network spend over the next year, after admitting pressures in areas with a ‘high concentration of smartphones’.

The operator is in the process of implementing a Network Performance Improvement Plan, which includes £30m additional spending for Q4 this year, rising to £100m in 2010. It has also brought forward 40 new site builds, to be delivered in London between now and Christmas.

A team of O2 technology senior managers and a board level steering committee have been put in place to drive the plans and the operator has chosen vendors and suppliers.

O2 attributed the pressures on its network to a growth in data use, particularly in areas with a high concentration of smartphone users. It said: ‘We have a small number of “hotspots” where customers may have lower levels of service than they expect.

‘Typical symptoms include calls going straight to voicemail, dropped calls or difficulty in establishing a data connection.’

Activity detailed in the plan includes: upgrading cell sites and accelerating investment in areas of high data usage; building additional sites (a total of 200 extra in London by Christmas 2010 and 40 before the end of November 2009); growing its fixed network; and growing its access data network.

O2 chief technology officer, Derek McManus, said: ‘World class smartphones have brought about an unprecedented demand on mobile data networks. Data on our network has increased 20-fold in the last year alone. As a result, we have recently experienced some isolated pressures in London where there is the highest concentration of smartphone users.

‘In the last two years we have invested £500m in our network. We are now aggressively accelerating our network growth programme, increasing our spend by hundreds of millions over the next few years to ensure we build significant headroom for the future.’
