Are You a Twitter Maniac?

Posted: 16 Sep 2011 04:12 PM PDT

With the instantly increasing popularity and impact of Twitter, this micro – blogging site has become one of the most influential websites existing today. Some people think that if they don't possess a few thousand followers on Twitter (the majority buy Twitter followers for that purpose) and don't post a couple of tweets every day, they won't be considered a Twitter pro.

So in order to keep track with the times they have registered on Twitter and after a couple of months they have become so addicted to this social media site that it has become quite impossible to get out of its influence.

Nowadays a great deal of people is suffering the so called Twitter mania, which does not allow them to devote their time to anything else but tweeting and gaining followers. Now you can tell me that Twitter mania is not an illness and one should not take it so seriously.

However I shall object to it by saying that if you get that illness and become a Twitter maniac it will become rather difficult for you to recover it as there exists no remedy for that.

If you wonder what I mean by saying a Twitter maniac I can clarify it to you. If you prefer to spend more than half a day in front of the computer tweeting some new updates about how you have spent your evening or with whom you have had you lunch rather than to spend that time together with your friends or family, it is the first symptom of a Twitter maniac.

At first you won't notice how you are gradually getting into the net of Twitter. You will pay no attention to the fact that you are concerned with nothing but tweeting, changing your profile picture on Twitter or reading the tweets of your followers.

You are becoming so involved and wrapped up in these activities that you lose the sense of hunger, thirst and fatigue and think only how to be successful on Twitter and become popular with the help of your Twitter account (especially when you enumerate the number of people that have gained that popularity online).

Afterwards you will begin to avoid human communication, I mean face to face interaction as you are got used to see only the computer screen in front of your eyes and a real human face can seem a bit strange and even frightening to you. You will want other people to leave you alone with your computer as you will, from that day on, prefer its companionship rather than a human one.

This fact will undoubtedly worry your friends and people who are really close to you. But believe me that you won't listen to their complaints and will be deaf to them.

Maybe you will find this description a little bit exaggerating and in some sense ridiculous, however I can assure you that I am more than serious. Twitter mania is a kind of illness that cannot seem serious from the first sight. However I advise you to take it serious in order not to catch that illness.

New TV Trends; What is Glasses-Free 3D Technology?

Posted: 15 Sep 2011 11:43 PM PDT

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last year, you know that 3D technology is this year's entertainment buzzword. But some consumers still think 3D glasses look too nerdy or aren’t comfortable wearing them.  I’m one such guy, who hates the idea of having to wear a 3D glass over my eyeglasses — they look weird, are irritating to wear and simply don’t ‘look cool’!

This is one BIG reason why consumers are reluctant to bring 3D into their own home when thinking of going for a ‘big screen 3D TV‘. Plus, the associated high price tags of these glass-required 3D TVs push the average TV watchers away.

In an innovative move, Toshiba is introducing a glasses-free 3D TV viewing option.  At the unveiling this month at the IFA Technology Fair in Berlin, 3D enthusiasts stood on a line watching Toshiba’s glass-less 3D display without glasses.

The so-called autostereoscopic displays [also called "glasses-free 3D" or "glasses-less 3D"] use special optical foils to create two different images for the left and right eyes. To allow different viewing positions – for instance, when the viewer moves his head – they need up to ten different views of an image. Eye tracking has been used in a variety of systems in order to limit the number of displayed views to just two, or to enlarge the stereoscopic sweet spot.

It’s clear that 3D is going to play an important role in the evolution of video consumption. Glasses-free 3D technology could help to accelerate 3D adoption by making 3D functionality more appealing and accessible to consumers.

The current implementations still leave a lot to be desired, but they provide very clear evidence that the consumer electronics giants are heading in the right direction. Someone that figures out how to do glasses-free 3D right could own the next wave of 3D television sets.

With 3D blockbusters like Avatar scoring megabucks in the theaters, 3D cinema's jump to the living room is all but a foregone conclusion. But where does that leave all your old 2D files and DVDs? If you have some old favorite movies in 2D DVD format and would love to convert them into 3D, then there is hope. Using 2D to 3D Converter software, you can convert a normal 2D DVD/Blu-ray/video to fantastic 3D video available in a variety of formats like AVI, MP4, MKV, FLV, M2TS, TS, etc.

The output 3D of 2D to 3D Converter can be side-by-side 3D, anaglyph 3D, and two separate files, and can be played on computer, some 3D TV, glasses-free 3D smartphones, or other compatible 3D display device.

If you have some blue-ray 3D DVDs and want to take backup of your favorite movies or 3D games, you can use Blu-ray 3D Ripper applications for Blu-ray 3D to 3D video conversion. The output 3D video can be played on computer using certain software player like Stereoscopic Player and NVIDIA 3D Vision Video Player, directly on your 3D TV, and can also be played on various glasses-free 3D smartphones like HTC EVO 3D, LG Optimus 3D P920 etc.

3D technology goes beyond just TV. There’s camcorders, cell phones, gaming systems and even a laptop coming out by next year.
