AMAZING TRANSPARENT TOUCH SCREEN COMPUTER


ٹرانس پیرنٹ ٹچ اسکرین کمپیوٹرایجاد

کراچی : ٹچ اسکرین کا کمپیوٹر آ پ سب ہی نے دیکھا ہوگا مگر اب آپ فخر کہہ سکیں گے کہ میرا ٹچ کمپویٹر  میرے گھر کی ونڈو ،شیشے یا پھر  دیوار پر بھی  چلایا جا سکتا ہے۔
ٹچ اسکرین کی خصوصیات کا حامل یہ کمپیوٹر دیکھنے میں شیشے کا ایک ٹکڑا ہے جیسےسام سانگ کمپنی نے تیار کیا ہے جو کہ رواں سال  کے اختتام سے قبل فروخت کیلئے پیش کردیا جائے گا۔
کمرے کی کھڑکی  یا پھر دیوار میں نصب کیا جانا والا یہ  شیشہ  کمپیوٹر نیم شفاف اور آرپار دیکھنے  کی صلاحیت رکھتا ہے جیسے   بوقت ضرورت بند کرکے کمرے کے باہر کا نظارہ بھی کیا جاسکتا ہے۔
46 انچ  کی بڑی ٹچ اسکرین  یہ کمپیوٹر جس میں سمارٹ پی سی کی تمام خصوصیات موجود  ہیں بلکہ یہ ہی نہیں  ٹرانس پیرنٹ سمارٹ ونڈو نامی اپنی نوعیت کا واحد کمپیوٹر  ہے جس میں مختلف ایپلی کیشن  جیسے  ٹوئٹر،فلائٹ انفارمیشن ،کھانے کی تراکیب ،ریسرچ اور موسم کی پیشن گوئی  کی جاسکتی ہے۔
ماہرین کا خیال ہے  کہ ونڈو کمپیوٹر  کی مدد  سے بہت جلد گھروں میں پڑے ڈیسک ٹاپ  ماضی کا حصہ بن  جائیں گے۔

FACEBOOK TIMELINE










New York: Social media giant Facebook has unveiled 60 new ‘timeline’ apps that post updates in real time about what people are doing, and also add updates to people’s Timeline.
“You can now enhance your timeline with apps that help you tell your story, whether you love to cook, eat, travel, run, or review movies,” said Carl Sjogreen, Facebook’s director of platform, in a blog.
“Soon, there will be apps for all types of interests, as more apps will launch over time. Whether you love snowboarding, gardening, hiking, or knitting, or something else, there will be an app for you.”
The handful of companies present at the rollout event in San Francisco pitched their apps as a way to allow users to more fully integrate their social experiences outside of Facebook into their social networking profile.
Someone reading an e-book from Kobo, for example, could highlight passages they want to share with Facebook friends. The app also will automatically track which books they have finished or started reading and connect them with other Facebook users reading the same books.
Users can then choose to delete the action from Facebook if, for example, they would rather not share their love of Twilight vampire movies.
The app provides “another level of engagement” for Rotten Tomatoes users, Estrada said. “It’s pretty exciting.”
Over time, the apps will track almost any aspect of life users prefer from cappuccinos to world travels and catalogue them into the Facebook “Timeline,” a new feature that essentially turns a personal profile into a virtual scrapbook.
With Timeline, Facebook users can easily scroll through years of events to see where a friend spent spring break in 2005, for example, or if they ever uploaded photos from a study-abroad semester in Paris.

Government of Punjab


The Government of Punjab (Punjabi/Urdu: پنجاب سرکار), a provincial government in the federal structure of Pakistan, is based in Lahore, the capital of the Punjab Province.
The Punjab or Panjab province of Pakistan is the country's most populous region and is home to the Punjabis and various other groups. Neighbouring areas are Sindh to the south, Balochistan and Federally Administered Tribal Areas to the west, the Khyber Pakhtoon Khwa (formerly North West Frontier Province (NWFP)), Azad Kashmir, Indian controlled Jammu, Kashmir, Ladakh and Islamabad to the north, and Indian Punjab and Rajasthan to the east. The main languages arePunjabi and Urdu and the provincial capital is Lahore. The name Punjab literally translates from Persian into the words 'Panj' (پانج) five, and 'Aab' (آب) water respectively, which can be translated as "five water" (hence the poetic name land of the five rivers), referring to the Beas, Ravi, Sutlej,Chenab and Jhelum rivers. Part of the Indus river also lies in Punjab, but it is not considered one of the "five" rivers.
