Feb 7th
Pe 5 Martie veti putea vedea unul dintre cele mai bune filme ale anului in format IMAX,la Bucuresti bineinteles.Ati ghicit,este vorba de filmul “Alice in Wonderland” al excentricului si fascinabilului Tim Burton,cu o distributie de exceptie (Johnny Depp,Anne Hataway,Mia Wasikowska) filmul va va face pe toata durata lui sa fiti si voi “o micuta Alice” ce calatoreste prin Tara Minunilor.
Alice are 19 ani şi se află la o petrecere unde află că urmează să fie cerută în căsătorie de un bărbat bogat. Fata fuge şi, prin vizuina Iepurelui Alb, cade în Ţara Minunilor, un loc pe care ştie că l-a vizitat cu ani în urmă, doar că nu-şi mai aduce deloc aminte de el. Iepurele Alb spune că s-a întors după Alice pentru că ea este singura în stare să-l ucidă pe Jabberwock, monstrul care apără regatul Reginei de Inimă-roşie. Va reuşi Alice să salveze Ţara Minunilor şi să se întoarcă în lumea reală?

Apple Tablet,un nou produs revolutionar?
Jan 28th
După principiul “scopul scuză mijloacele”, publicaţii importante de IT au căzut deja la picioarele companiei din Cupertino şi închină zilnic ode gadgetului Apple. Sunt atât de multe opinii şi presupuneri încât nici măcar cei dezinteresaţi nu pot scăpa de tortura ştirilor la minut dedicate evenimentului.
Chiar dacă eviţi să dai click, rămân titlurile care de fapt spun totul: Tablet PC-ul Apple se va numi iBook, ba nu – iPad, pardon – iSlate, tableta se va conecta la Internet prin Wi-Fi (wow, ce noutate) sau introducerea textului se va face prin recunoaşterea scrierii de mână. Absolut nimic nou. Astfel de produse au curs la CES 2010, dar este de aşteptat ca Apple să revoluţioneze încă o dată industria aşa cum a făcut-o în 2007 cu iPhone-ul. Care va fi elementul surpriză de această dată? Ce va aduce în plus faţă de o tabletă obişnuită?
Ecranul capacitiv cu multitouch a fost adoptat deja de numeroşi producători, dar nimeni nu a reuşit până în prezent să facă un display atât de responsiv precum cel întâlnit pe iPhone. De asemenea, Apple se pricepe foarte bine să realizeze interfeţe prietenoase cu utilizatorul, aşa încât oricine poate folosi gadgetul într-un mod uşor şi plăcut.
Până aici, nimic revoluţionar. Se vorbeşte însă pe unele forumuri şi despre faptul că tableta Apple ar putea fi primul produs cu tehnologie Intel Light Peak (un cablu optic care leagă toate componentele şi asigură o lăţime de bandă foarte mare – 10 Gbit/s acum, până la 100 Gbit/s în viitor), mai ales că demonstraţia acesteia a avut loc pe o placă de bază de Mac Pro (Workstation Apple). Zvonul capătă un plus de credibilitate dacă socotim şi afirmaţia oficialilor Intel cum în 2010 vor apărea primele sisteme cu tehnologie Light Peak.
Are conectivitate 3G – amazing, Wi-Fi – amazing, 64 GB – amazing, autonomie de 10 ore – amazing, 800 de dolari – amazing. Un produs Apple nu avea cum să fie altfel decât “an amazing product”.
Ei au intrat in preselectia nationala pt Eurovision 2010!

New* Inna-10 minutes
Jan 26th
Se pare ca femeia-minune,”cantautoarea” noastra preferata a lansat un nou single cu care vrea sa sfasie Billboard-ul precum a mai facut-o si vrea sa o vada iar pe Lady Gaga in oglinda retrovizoare(ei na!),asa ca s-a hotarat sa lanseze piesa “10 minutes”.
Cel mai amuzant este ca face piese cu duiumu in engleza dar daca o pui sa-ti vorbeasca tot in engleza se comuta pe modul:”Inna style english”.
