Google has built and tested autonomous aerial vehicles, which it believes could be used for goods deliveries. The project is being developed at Google X, the company's clandestine tech research arm, which is also responsible for its self-driving car. Project Wing has been running for two years, but was a secret until now. Google said that its long-term goal was to develop drones that could be used for disaster relief by delivering aid to isolated areas. They could be used after earthquakes, floods, or extreme weather events, the company suggested, to take small items such as medicines or batteries to people in areas that conventional vehicles cannot reach. "Even just a few of these, being able to shuttle nearly continuously could service a very large number of people in an emergency situation," explained Astro Teller, Captain of Moonshots - Google X's name for big-thinking projects.

App makers should be required to make software for Blackberry handsets, says the boss of the phone company. In an open letter to members of the US Congress , John Chen said rivals should be obliged to make their widely used apps available on Blackberry handsets. He said the other firms and developers were "discriminating" against Blackberry by not making the apps. His comments drew criticism from experts, one of whom called his claims "ludicrous". 'Discriminatory practice' In his letter, Mr Chen sought to expand the definition of "net neutrality" to encompass more than just the way data travels to peoples' homes. Net neutrality is the principle that there should be no paid prioritisation for net traffic. This means no company should be able to gain a commercial advantage by paying ISPs to have its data reach people faster. Mr Chen said the same should apply to apps on smartphones, so ...

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Privacy and security have been hot buttons of mine. As a consequence, I'm asked to check out authentication apps nearly as often as I'm asked if I want fries with that. Authentication technologies that restrict access to smartphones and tablets are becoming an increasingly important tool for information technology (IT) professionals in the unending quest to protect valuable digital assets. More employees are using mobile devices as portals into company data, which makes them tempting targets for hackers. The challenge for IT is to find authentication software that is both secure enough to be an effective gatekeeper and convenient enough that employees won't mind using it. That combination has proven to be elusive. Most of the apps out there employ the device's rear-facing camera for face recognition, which is cool when it works. But it can be downright infuriating when it doesn't. And you can rest assured that, sooner or later, i...

How To Increase Internet Speed 10x Times – Hey Hackers we are back again this time with a auique topic that is we will teach you how you can increase your internet speed to 10 times very easily. So here are the ways through which you can increase your internet speed. 1. Test a different modem/router The biggest cause of slowed down internet is a bad modem. For ages I was using a Billion modem that I thought was absolutely fantastic. I was having frequent internet drop outs and blaming them on my ISP. Finally I changed to a new NETGEAR N150 modem and speeds went up and the drop outs stopped. The problem? The old Billion modem wasn’t equipped for ADSL2+. Rookie mistake. Make sure your modem is suited to the internet plan that you are on. Update: I’m now using the above modem/router called the NETGEAR D6300 (AC1600 Dual Band Gigabit) which is lightning fast, has a huge wireless range and has many other cloud-based features. I highly recommend this bad boy. 2. S...
