"Tablets are cannibalizing Netbooks"..says Intel's newly launched news site called Free Press

Reports of Netbook’s Death Greatly Exaggerated 

Intel is known for its innovations and sudden unique decisions that makes everyone ponder "What are they Upto?..
Before anyone can figure out Intel's motive behind acquiring Mcafee, it has come out with another surprise.Intel now entered the media market by launching a news website called "Free Press". The news site is hosted and published by Intel. Though it was a surprise but the lead story gives a solid indication of the kind of aggressive PR lifting it is going to do in the future. The lead topic in the site starts off with " Reports of Netbook’s Death Greatly Exaggerated, Experts Say. 
It tries to make people understand the difference between Tablets and Netbooks. The point it  highlights is quite right. The amount of work that you can do in a netbook is much more than a tablet. A tablet can basically be used only to browse the internet when you are travelling. If you are looking for business work, good battery life and apps while travelling then tablet is absolutely not the right device, at least till date. Yes in the future Tablets will take over Netbooks in a similar way as Netbooks had taken over notebooks but its not quite there yet. 

Malicious Links in Facebook spreads again....

Two Malicious Links circling around Facebook Friends. Delete these if you see it in your profile....

i) LOL have a look at this... 5 things every girl does before she meets her boyfriend http:// tiny.cc/ krola

 

  - There is absolutely nothing to know what a girl does before she meets her BF...DELETE IT

     IMMEDIATELY. 

 

Why should i delete it?

 

- Remove the spaces from the above link and open it (facebook have already blocked it). Anyway it

would have taken you to a page where you will have to Allow the application to access your 

profile...Along with the Allow button there are two already checked boxes which will change your 

homepage to "My Websearch" and also install a toolbar. "My Websearch" is a known nasty adware 

which will continuously open backdoors for other Malicious Trojans to enter and after that u know 

whats going to happen..And..Lets say you uncheck the check boxes and then allow the application to 

access your facebook profile.What next?...Your profile will be automatically posting links to all your 

friends till your account gets suspended by facebook(Defensio guys).

 

ii) OMG OMG OMG... I cant believe this actually works! Now you really can see who views your

      page!..See Who Viewed Your Facebook Page! on page-view.info.

   -  This is never going to happen in Facebook. It is against Facebook's privacy and security policy

       to track and display who visited your profile unlike Orkut....DELETE IT IMMEDIATELY. 

You can visit the facebook security page to read the policies. If incase u follow the message it'll end

up doing the same thing as the first one..
