AVG 2011 problems...

Hey People, its been a while..well, I am back and here to stay( Welcome back..welcome back..welcome baaaack)...AVG being one of the most reliable with  FREE anti Virus available, with the 2011 version  out already,makes it number 1 anti virus mostly downloaded.Well this time round they did a bad job..apparently this Version makes computers to flood websites with unnecessary HTTP requests and in many cases prevents users from properly using their browsers.

 

Most users who have already installed it in their computers and have complined there browsers to shurt down unexpectdly and lose some information..well the remedy is obvoiously to uninstall it and install the old version and wait till they solve this.

Google shutting down one of its app by end year...

Google Wave by end of 2010 it will be no more, most people haven't even realize its existence and is being axed..or is it people are too dummies to use it and thus those signed up to use it droped using it trigerring a mass withdrawal from it? In my opinion. I advice google not to shut it down complitely only put a pause on it as this is future of comunication, its just that the technology came too quickly and many users couldnt understand it to use it, with time it would pick up. blame it on Face book, twitter,msn, yahoo messenger and myspace..dominating internet communications.

So what is Google wave,..Google wave is a web-based service, computing platform, and communications protocol designed to merge e-mail, instant messaging, wikis, and social networking, all into one platform. Here you can chat REAL TIME with friends, check mail and network..You can also do daily planing for your meetings and activities in line for the day. To me, it is something that will help people balance their time spent on chatting and plans made for the day.. Trust me, people especially young people have been caught up spending long hours twitting forgetting to sturdy for their exam, or spend quality time with friends and family or complete some task..

Furthermore the people who designed Google Maps, the brothers( Jens and Lars Rasmussen) were the ones behind this. Meaning this is something..Google don't shut it down, improve it and that's iTkenyait.

For more information and registering to use it before it is shut down, hey by the way, you joining or signing up may give Google a second thought and maintain it..Common guyz..

Go here...Google Wave 

Have a nice weekend all..

BEWARE ON DELL COMPUTERS...........

Hi all..i have been down some past days but i am back on track now and planning to update regularly my blog. Truly it is not easy to update the sites like daily or every hour, you need to have topics, touch real issues and find a way to keep your readers glued on your blog. as much as I try to find loyal readers, daily life too has its plans and hey God too... so you just have to keep on going, i know one time when more word will be on the street about iTkenya then yeah...Enough said.

Dell have been on the news lately on some fault they had on their machines, apparently some students subjected the computers to some maths and the thing went dead..How can you give some instruction on computer( we are talking about dell) and then they go numb, can happen if there is a  hardware faultiness after long use, but well the machines had to be taken to the Dell company and some manufacturer faults were found..now the dell company are on their toes.

so if you want to buy a dell machine or like you are going to do now, i suggest you put it on hold till this story is resolved.

Happy birthday Veena, you are Love. wish you Enough.

Get rid of that Computer Junks with Camara

I know most people have accumilated electronic junks and are looking for ways to dispose off them and sometimes get stack.


Below is an  update i got that may help and i want to share with you and give you a chance to clean that dark locked room.

"Hi Everyone,

Allow me to introduce Camara Education who are in the process of
partnering with NEMA to deal with e-waste in the country. 10% of
Camara's work is to bring in hardware to assist in delivering
education to schools and it was very easy to collect Camara donated
computers which had become obsolete and ethically dispose them by
shipping some parts to our partners in South Africa and Singapore.
Having received some little capital from a Hardware manufacturer, we
are now collecting anything electronic which is dead, broken,
unusable/usable and even burnt.

We will be giving a small incentive/amount for big quantities and we
are not charging anything for companies who want to dispose there
equipment. We will also be destroying data on hard drives using 'US
DoD 5220.22M' standards for free and thereafter will be issuing a
certificate for companies which will be stamped by NEMA to acknowledge
there environmental responsibility by ethically disposing off
electronic waste.

We have acquired an 8000sqft facility in Mombasa for e-waste
processing and our processes and standards are very open to the public
for purposes of education and hopefully we will be certified to ISO
14001 in the next 12 months.

We are therefore open to business and partnerships to all stakeholders.

Kindly, contact me for any further information or if you have any
quantities for collection.


Kind Regards,"

Wilson Bandi.

Have a lucky Thursday 

Kenya Interactive TV....

Yes..thats it..you interact with your Television..Say stories, chat and vote YES or No to competitions on screen with you remote( you don't have to send that sms to KTN, NTV on their debate during prime time news), you are watching football, Papa Shirandula and you don't want to experience any commercial brake well, you disable this options on your TV and that Detol Kid wont pop again,,u enjoy the whole program without interruption, You want to go to the Loo and you don't want to miss a thing,your phone is ringing and you don't want to miss a Love Spell Scene well, put a Pause on the Live program, take that call as long as you want, go to the Loo..heck you can even take a trip Isiolo and come back some time later and press play to continue watching your program... Folks, that is what we call Interactive TV.


You have experience the power of Fiber Optic, now you are going to experience the power of TV. You thought PC and Laptop is Cool with internet in them. well here comes Interactive TV to Kenyans. Other countries and some peeps have it on their PVR or line of broadcast, but due to the introduction of Digital Tv in kenya these is the next big thing and everyone will enjoy it, interest you.. Put on your sit-belts and take a rid with me...


What is interactive tv?

Interactive TV (iTV) is any television with what is called a “return path”. Information flows not only from broadcaster to viewer( many people think this is so), but also back from viewer to broadcaster.


Advantage of Interactive tv?

Viewers take control on what to watch, what not to watch..i.e the Broadcast doesn't control you on what you want to watch, giving you a list of programs dates and time to watch, you the viewer will have power to view what you want and what you don't want. Get to record program, and Pause Live coverage.


Designers, Developers, Marketers,  it is now time to make money through coming up with various macmemende staffs, local programs, animations, and Talk Shows. This is so, because the space given to broadcastors is huge...take adventage, they will be wanting something for the viewers and yes,,,LOCAL CONTENT IS MUCH BEING RECOMMENDED..Before I forgot..Google Tv..is coming up.( if anything interest google, i get intrested.)


Why now ?

So that the government, hospital, fire departments, police can  take up the analog space and use it for their comunication without interferences ( hackers like to tap on these communication lines). It is now because there is too much competition for the space and  yes for security reason( we don't want to let what happen in 2007/8 happen again)


Food For Thought

If interactive TV information flows from the viewer to the broadcaster, does it mean the viewer is getting spied upon?


Enjoy you weekend
