Have a break and try this one.

Have you mispelled your favorite search engines once when you type it on the address bar?

Here’s one trick.

When you misspell www.yahoo.com to www.yahooo.com or www.google.com to www.gooogle.com. It will redirect to the same website. Heheh. Try it for yourself.

Computer screen colors and energy consumption

Monitor colors and electricity

Computer screen colors and energy consumption

Did you know that the color white displayed on a CRT (Cathode Ray Tudbe) computer monitor uses 25% more electricity than when the color black is displayed? The mind boggles.

I really had given no thought to monitors and electricity usage aside from knowing that CRT displays, bigger screens, higher screen resolutions and more powerful video cards did have an impact on power consumption.

The Department of Energy provided the chart below, which shows the basic 16 Windows colors and the amount of electricity each uses when displayed as a solid color on a screen.

White – 74 Watts Fuchsia – 69 Watts Yellow – 69 Watts Aqua – 68Watts
Silver – 67 Watts Blue – 65 Watts Red – 65 Watts Lime – 63 Watts
Gray – 62 Watts Olive – 61 Watts Purple – 61 Watts Teal – 61 Watts
Green – 60Watts Maroon – 60 Watts Navy – 60 Watts Black – 59 Watts

There’s quite a difference between the various colors.

If you’re a web site designer, here’s a palette of colors outside of the basic 16 found to be the most environmentally-friendly in terms of power usage

If you’ve ever worked on older computers, you’ll know that white text on a black background can make your eyes bleed after a while; so I’m not recommending you run your screen like that . As for myself, I run 800×600 resolution and use Windows’ Marine color scheme which is just a variety of greens. I didn’t pick this for energy conservation reasons, simply because I spend so many hours in front of a screen each day and I found that continual white backgrounds were getting little harsh. The greens I found to be very easy on my eyes. It’s nice to know I’ve probably saved a little electricity as well as a result. I also use a blank screensaver mainly because, well, I just can’t see the point of using anything else

You can certainly make some energy savings when it comes to your screen saver (if you’re using a CRT monitor); instead of tropical islands teasing you, go for plain old black – a watt saved here and there when millions of people do it can really add up. As for actual dollar savings, I don’t think you’ll be exclaiming “wow!” when your next power bill arrives; but every penny counts.

Don’t forget also to take advantage of the various power management features that are available on most modern computers. These settings can shut down your monitor after a specified period, stop your hard driving spinning needlessly when it’s not in use and a variety of other electricity saving options. If you’re a Windows user, these settings can be found by clicking on the Start button, selecting “Control Panel” and then double clicking on Power “Options”.

Digital Versatile Card

New Technology Idea:
Name: Digital Versatile Card, Digital Versatile Media Card, Digital Sticker, Digital Notes, Digital Omni Card
Physical Properties: Like a thin sheet of Digital Picture Frame, Can be Flexible/Non-flexible, there is a embedded internal memory like on a mobile sim card, high-end model can have a touch enable technology.

Example Usage: Train Ticket, Business Card, Promotional Card

This is a size of standard business card. Can be use as a platform for information and communication. Can display a news updates, advertisements, announcements and bulletin. Data can be update through mobile technology sms or email.
I think this technology idea will be in use worldwide.
This idea pop-up in my mind during a conference on mobile technology.
