Up until today, it’s been a little tedious to send large or multiple attachments with an email. You had to select each attachment individually and you never knew how long it would be before those bigger files were ready to send.  Uploading multiple attachments at the same time just got enabled. Gmail has warded off the tedious job of uploading files one at a time. Now Gmail will let uploading multiple files at a time, albeit, the maximum limit of attachments remains 20MB only. If you want to send a few files from the same folder, simply hold down the Ctrl key (Cmd on OS X) and click on each file you want to attach to your message. You can also hold down the Shift key to select a continuous list of files. A definite time saver.

You’ll not only save a few mouse clicks selecting files, but you’ll also see progress bars on each file as it uploads.

Its seems like the financial crisis over the world really has not affected to the Austrian jeweler Peter Aloisson,because he created a record for himself by designing the world’s most expensive phone Apple iPhone 3G Kings Button.

The Apple iPhone 3G Kings Button’s main operating button is integrated with high quality 6.6 carat diamonds, this impression itself of the phone is very attractive. This exquisite phone is made of solid 18-carat yellow gold, white gold and rose gold. It flaunts a white gold line encrusted with a total of 138 brilliant cut diamonds of the best quality.

The new Apple iPhone 3G ‘Kings Button’ is the most luxurious phone to date. The phone is definitely for those who dare to defy the current credit crunch. The Apple iPhone 3G ‘Kings Button’ for 1,636,000 ($2,517,345) (approx. Rs 12 crore). I’m going to start saving up right now. ;)

Sony’s big news announcement at CES involves a very tiny package. But don’t call it a netbook. Sony spokesfolk were adamant that–even though the newcomer packs an Intel Atom processor and 2GB of RAM–this superslim P-series computer is a lifestyle machine. The distinction sort of makes sense, too: At the $899 starting price that Sony expects the unit to command when it ships in February, it had better do more than be small.

Small it’s got down: Weighing 1.4 pounds and measuring about 1 inch thick, the pint-size PC can slide snuggly into a coat pocket or purse. But inside the P series are such impressive components as a 60GB hard-disk drive (you can invest in a 64GB or 128GB solid-state drive if you prefer), a battery that promises 4 hours battery life (8 hours with the optional battery upgrade), 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Qualcomm’s Gobi chip set for wireless broadband. That’s on top of what you’ll find inside any computer that sports an Atom processor: two USB ports, a headphone jack, a display/LAN adapter connection, a Webcam with built-in mic, an SD Card slot, and a Memory Stick card slot. Technically, I think that outdoes the MacBook Air. And all of this goodness sits inside a slim, screwless case that will be available in several colors.

The Blue Screen of Death (also known as a stop error, BSoD, bluescreen, or Blue Screen of Doom) is an error screen displayed by some operating systems, most notably Microsoft Windows, after encountering a critical system error which can cause the system to shut down, to prevent damage.

So you believe that you are the only one who is getting that error screen? You’re not alone!

Wow! 39,161 Days And 10 Hours to copy a single file on Windows Vista! Microsoft! What exactly have you done to Vista?

The easiest way to describe Web 3.0 is to first explain Web 2.0. Web 2.0 is used to define web technology trends or a web design that aids users in information sharing and collaboration among other users. Examples of this include social-networking sites, wikis-sites, and blogs, all of which have gained immense popularity in recent years. Web 3.0 can be considered the next generation in web development.

The future elements and stages expected for Web 3.0 vary greatly depending on which experts are asked. Some feel emerging technologies, like the Semantic Web, will transform the way the web is used. Semantic Web is essentially a form of artificial intelligence that will allow the web to more accurately understand and fulfill the requests of people looking for web content. Other experts have more practical expectations, such as increased Internet connection speeds, greater WiFi areas, modular web applications or advancements in computer graphics.
