Digital Libaries

There have been many break through with modern technology, but there has been one that will help bring information closer to the hands of many through digital libraries. Not only does it help students like myself access information through the tip of my finger tips it gives many Internet users the same opportunity. This is a way to try and preserve more documents for being destroyed with the erosion of time. This also helps many who try and research history and studies that deal with past information. The only problem with this is that anything that is backed up with a computer lasts as long as the computer functions properly and doesn't crash. For these reasons these documents have to be backed up in different places. Not only is this convenient,but it is a free service that many libraries will soon offer.

Flash Drives Versus Floppy Disk

When I was first exposed to computers and transferring data I was introduced to floppy disks. Now a days the use of floppy drives has diminished. This happened because they became obsolete. A new and better way to store and transfer data was created in a flash drive. These flash drives are more convenient in transferring data because they can hold a greater amount of data and are more durable than the floppy disk. The flash drive wasn't the first improvement to floppy disks. The fist improvement came with the Zip disks. These disks may have looked like a regular floppy disk but could store more memory and was a little more durable. These disks didn't catch on because almost all computers had to have a zip disk drive installed onto it. This is where the flash drive came in. It could hold the amount of memory a zip disk could if not more and was also a fraction of the size, it was more durable, and most importantly it is easy to use with all computers, with quick and easy installation through the USB ports.

Wirless Internet

When we think of wireless Internet and do not seem to understand how it works. The only clear understanding of it is the fact that there are no wires to worry about. Well, looking into a website http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/0600/wireless/default.aspx that explains how the wireless communication that is used through cell phones, wireless Internet and wireless hand held devices works. When it comes to wireless instead of having a connection directly to the web server a intermediate sever is involved to translate the file extensions thaat identify the type of file that is being used and then this can be send to the web server to make possible the request of thr user. certain addition have to be added to the web server like the website states"you must add a new MIME type of text/vnd.wap.wml, with a file extension of wml. You must also add a 1-bit black and white bitmap image if you plan to use graphics in your service. This requires its own MIME type of image/bmp, with a file extension of bmp. Other useful MIME types include application/x-up-alert and application/x-up-cacheop." In having this type of service I am able to connect to the internet in places where wireless is avilable intstead of just having to be in a room. This also expands the reach for people all around to connect without a restrictin to a certain place.
