Why pay 20 € per Facebook user Instagram

Why Mark Zuckerberg is going to pay 1,000 million for Instagram ? How does a company with less than two years of life generates so much interest? Is it logical to bet Facebook?. Buy twice the market price is not common. Instagram was valued at about $ 500 million in the last round of investment which closed a few days before …purchase by Facebook, but is that a few months ago the estimate was 300 and last year “only” were 100 million. So what happened? Is it really one of those businesses that appear only once in a lifetime?

Google already made a similar play with YouTube years ago (with excellent results) and now makes a move like Facebook, but in this case there are other key factors to consider. Zuckerberg did not appear to have purchased Instagram by his love of photography. Just look at your account for everything that has the programming genius he paid with his artistic abilities. So, consider some details.

Facebook seems to have everything mastered. Still holds the ropes to Google + and its future looks promising with its incipient IPO. But if we look closely and seek avenues of growth of Facebook quickly found with two keys … mobility and photography . Surprised?

Facebook is among other things a huge photo album. stores in their accounts several thousand times more photos than Flickr (for instance) from which one can deduce that photography is important for users of Facebook. On the other hand we find that Facebook has been imposed on the desktop but did not repeat the same success on mobile devices . Meanwhile, it has achieved Instagram viral growth in mobile becoming the two most desirable consumer groups, Apple and Android.

In this situation the purchase of Instagram solves two problems at once, make photo sharing hegemony slope enhancing mobility and eliminate the closest opponent was of eating a snack in their growth plans. The result is that Facebook does a complementary tool before applying to become an enemy.

Given that Facebook users probably will not notice the acquisition, it only remains to see if Instagram share the happiness of the creators of the app and its new owners, since Instagram is expected to use at least , the same policies that Facebook to join her. Although they have promised that nothing will change. By the way, and many have started looking for alternatives to Instagram. As they say “People use Facebook. People love Instagram. “ Facebook Now you can begin to be considered the next enemy to overthrow.

SUR40, the Samsung digital touchscreen table and Microsoft

Evolution of Surface , the table Microsoft Digital Touch has arrived today in Spain by Samsung and under the name of SUR40 . We had already had a first contact with the SUR40 at CES, but now we could try it with a little more time and find out … its price, 7800 €.

The S UR40 is basically a screen 40-inch LCD in table format. Inside included a series of sensors that are responsible for capturing the movements of the hands, objects, and in general any possible interaction with the table. This recnología called PixelSense has a crystal ultraresistantGorilla Glass , an LCD panel to generate the image itself and a LED backlight that combines visible light to see the screen and infrared light to detect the elements with a maximum resolution of 52 points of contact.

All this is controlled by a computer based on an AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core 2.9 GHz with 320 GB and 4 GB of RAM. Connectivity is divided between classic Ethernet 100/1000 and WiFi, Bluetooth as well as specially designed for exchanging data with mobile phones. Surface interface, which now has over 1,000 apps in the world, works on Windows 7 and even say the SUR40 will be compatible with Windows 8 no one has ruled on whether to use the interface or keep the current Metro Surface.

The main objective of SUR40 is becoming a showcase interactive between customers and stores, so do not think (for now) that can be very useful in the living room. And it must be borne in mind that the integrated functions are very basic and SUR40 is necessary to develop custom applications (with a corresponding cost ecocómico) to begin to take advantage of the possibilities of Surface 2.0.

They are the next big thing in the world of displays, the flexible display , and an unknown company called Atmel has announced that this year began production Xsense, a new type of flexible screen color touch . While the flexibility of the screens can Xsense …help create new products with curved designs, we must not forget that its functionality can be very interesting touch in products which have never before been used. Also when using a mesh technology can create rolls Xsense large without much difficulty.

Atmel is a manufacturer of final products so its flexible displays offer is for other brands decide to use them in their own betting products to advance the design and functionality of a wide range of consumer products. I suspect the issue is that once again has not shown any functional prototype. Just the typical digitally generated promotional video. But that is semiconductor company developing components for a bunch of gadgets like the Samsung Galaxy Tab gives some credibility.

Ensure that the screens Xsense be available from later this year and have promised to be thin, large size and low power consumption. If true Samsung, LG and other manufacturers will have to step on the accelerator.

Astrophysicists and general amateur astronomy (not astrology) tend to be photographers also concerns, and now are in luck with the Canon EOS 60Da . Among these (concerns) highlights the precision and color accuracy when shooting space, rather good that is in space. In general the nebulae and other galactic family tend to emit much of their energy in the infrared spectrum, but …normal digital cameras have an IR filter that removes most of this information .

The solution was to remove this filter home in a delicate operation tecnobricolaje, but now Canon has launched the  EOS 60Da,  an optimized model to photograph astronomical phenomena such as the so-called diffuse nebulae, one of the reasons favored by astrophotographers because of the unique color red caused by the ionization of hydrogen. This has changed the IR filter and now use a new filter that offers three times the light transparency for the EOS 60D has.

To this must be added the well known sensor 18 Megapixel CMOS, DIGIC 4 and an ISO range of 100-6400 ISO native , expandable to 12,800 for capturing images requiring long exposures in low light conditions. The  EOS 60Da  has a feeder ACK-E6  that allows the camera on without interruption which is essential when capturing very long-term or Time Lapse. On the other hand the software  EOS Utility  allows you to connect D60a with a computer via USB to control exposures and the outcome of live photos. Now you just need a good telescope, an adapter and  $ 1.499 will cost when it hits stores in USA later this month.

In their eagerness to get money from under the stones of Alderaan himself, George Lucas has licensed Star Wars for Microsoft to develop Kinect Star Wars , a nice, surprising and even ‘sacrilegious’ (for the purists of the series) game where you see the stormtroopers dancing in the pub galactic pace of your body.

The game has five modes, namely: Destination Jedi Pod Racing, Rancor, Dancing and Dueling Galactic Destiny . Each must demonstrate skill and coordination to handle a lightsaber, get under the skin of a destructive Rancor, stylish dance music as the galactic bar, driving a racing pod or shoot down enemy fighters controlling the Millennium Falcon. Let that € 49.99 whole family is guaranteed fun if you can lift the ass of the couch.

And if you’re a Star Wars unconditional as you might find that also goes on sale the Xbox 360 Limited Edition “Star Wars Kinect”  which includes a disguised Xbox360 R2-D2 (which also makes its noises and all) and inspired leadership C-3PO, plus the corresponding white Kinect sensor and the game “Kinect Star Wars.” Yes, the price is somewhat higher, € 399.99 .

Our verdict is that it is not a game for fans of Star Wars but rather a collection of independent games to raise awareness of the possibilities of Kinect that revolve about the world of George Lucas. The graphics are nothing special and the gameplay can be somewhat repetitive, but the idea of playing with friends or family means that the game can not be too complicated, and thatKinect Star Wars  meets perfectly.

Looking inside we discovered that this is a new generation of plasma panels has reduced its consumption and its thickness to compete with the LEDs, but …maintaining the advantages of color, response speed and contrast, plasma characteristics. And the truth is that in a first contact results are impressive.

To get an idea, new PLED work with a picture refresh rate of 600 Hz , using a triple processor XD to manage the quality of image pixel by pixel with 16 bit color depth , use a filter to reduce flicker MEMC consume 40% less than other plasma technologies and offer a lifetime 100,000 hours . In any case the advantage of PLED against the LED current is its ability to illuminate each pixel individually compared to the known LED arrays. The result is that the PLED offer 6,220,800 points of light (as it requires no backlight) which is 32,000 times more accurately than one LED.

PLED technology is available in the P9700 range of 50 “by 1699 and at 60″ for € 1799. Both maintain Smart TV, 3D active USB recorder with Time Machine, Freeview HD tuner, DLNA, WiFi and interesting command Control Magic already tested at CES . The only thing left to check is easy if blacks become so deep as an LED, but what do we have confirmed is its high level of detail and definition for fans to sporting events or action movies .

Terrafugia is a company with one of those wonderful ideas that are about to come true. We are talking about the Transition,  a mid-size car that fits (more or less) in any garage, but spreading its wings and becomes a plane, going to fly. This car flying in the style of James Bond has made ??itsfirst flight real … after several years in development and financing, and is literally ready to go.

The  Terrafugia Transition is mature enough to go into production before the end of 2012, but we must not forget that this idea arose in the MIT has perfected since 2007. The current model is able to travel on the road with folded wings (and a huge tail with twin rudder) to reach the airport in question, where the wings automatically stretch to take the flight configuration. The rest is evident. Accelerate and take off airplane mode.

The Terrafugia Transition  takes only 30 seconds to spread its wings and can shoot up to 100 km / h flying at 185 km / h, although that need not only a driving license but also the sport pilot license.

Well, the truth is that the  Terrafugia Transition is closer to being a small plane on the road can be a car that can fly and they themselves recognize. But look at it, we are closer to making our dreams come true. Course, its price puts us back with your feet on the ground with a $ 279,000 advance deposit of $ 10,000.

Microsoft has just introduced its patent for a virtual imaging system designed to complement the experience of its Xbox console and smartphones Windows Phone . The basis of both is the same, some screens located in the eyes as a semitransparent glasses which projects the images generated by a pico projector. Technically the system is rather like …the Epson Moverio we tested a while, but this is apparently based compact laser projection.

In this case, Microsoft would be developing two different models. One conventional shaped glasses intended for Windows Phone and another aviation hull form for the Xbox. Both models can produce 3D images and systems function as Augmented Reality of Virtual Image or simplydisplay content depending on the degree of transparency of the screens.

Applications for each of the models can be very different because while the glasses for Windows Phone may offer digital information combined with the Real World ™, the helmet could recreate an entire virtual universe combined combined with orientation sensors could revive the concept ofvirtual reality games . So far we know nothing more, but with Google Goggles right around the corner and models of Sony and Epson already on the market, any surprise is possible.
