Content-Focused iPad Apps Value Form Over Function: Study

One set of instructions for the Moleskine iPad app.
A report released by the Nielsen Norman Group shows that many iPad apps are confusing users by being too subtle about the gestures needed to navigate them, and some are not sensitive enough to the accuracy limit of fingertips. The authors also found that many companies with perfectly functional websites are wasting their time making a less-functional iPad app.

The Perils of Cloud Computing
What would happen if your future arrived too early? If you got the keys to your first car when you were eight? Landed your first big management job at 15?
I’ve been asking those questions while playing with the Cr-48 laptop, the first implementation of Google’s cloud-based Chrome operating system. After a few months with it, I feel like it’s important, but I also think it’s from a future we’re simply not ready for.
Burning Question: Why Do DVDs Still Have Region Codes?
While vacationing in France, you find a DVD of Ishtar. Score! (It’s never been released on DVD in the US). But when you get home, you discover that you’ve purchased a Region 2 disc, which, in your Region 1 player, is as useful as a coaster. This raises two questions: Why do you want to watch Ishtar?

Le meilleur moyen pour y parvenir est de remplir de mousse un hangard d'un volume considérable. Afin de vérifier le respect des niveaux de sécurité, un test de mousse est régulièrement effectué. C'est toujours autant impressionnant de voir autant de mousse en si peu de temps ... Il est même étonnant qu'un night club ne soit pas équipé d'un tel engin. Comment font ils pour se débarrasser de la mousse une fois le test terminé ?
The level of security at airports is so sensitive that one should be able to put out an early fire in less than 3 minutes. The best way to do this is to fill the shed of a substantial volume with foam. To verify the compliance with security levels, a foam test is regularly performed. It is always impressive to see so much foam so quick ... It is even surprising that a nightclub is not equipped with such a device. How do they get rid of the foam once the test is completed ?
