BOYHOOD, A MUST WATCH:                                                                                     
Well, what a movie. Filmed over 12 years with the same cast, RICHARD LINKLATER'S BOYHOOD, is a ground breaking story as grown up as seen through the eyes of the child named MAOSN, who literally grows up on screen before our own eyes. The story from a child to his boyhood is extreamly well written and the script is too good. The director has tried to show that what are the problems and challenges that a boy faces in his boyhood. It's impossible to watch Mason and his family without thinking about our own journey. This is not only a great film, but an important landmark in how great films can be made.

MOBOROBO SOFTWARE
Moborobo is an application that is designed to let IOS and ANDROID users control every file on their phones.
One of the problems with Android is that there is no official desktop application to help move files on and off. Apple devices have the venerable iTunes, but lots of users are not fans of the program, claiming that it's bloated.
Enter Moborobo. This application was designed to let users control every file on their devices. There's no need to jailbreak or root - unless you want to use its wi-fi feature. Moborobo will allow you to view, upload, and download everything from photos and videos to applications and ringtones to your device. Moborob will even uninstall applications in bulk for you.

The initial launch of Moborobo can be a bit frustrating as it will need to installdrivers for your phone. For a complete list of supported devices, take a look at this list. Users can connect to Moborobo using a USB cable or over a wi-fi network if rooted. Performance was decent, but there was some interface lag at times.
There are also sections to download more wallpapers, ringtones, and applications but they were not completely fleshed out in this beta version. Still, Moborobo is stable enough and has enough usable features to make it a good application to manage files on your devices.
Overall, Moborobo is a great application for controlling the files on your device. This is especially true for Android users.

The World's Most Popular Messaging App Is Now Available For Your Desktop.
WhatsApp, which is used by 700 million users to communicate between smartphones and tablets, can now be used on desktop computers - but it still must be linked to the phone app.
For the desktop service to work, the paired phone needs an internet connection.
Currently only those using the app on Android, Windows and BlackBerry smartphones will be able to use the desktop version - so iPhone users will have to wait.
To set up the service, users have to visit http://web.whatsapp.com in a Google Chrome browser.

Google driverless car

The Google Self-Driving Car is a project by Google that involves developing technology for autonomous cars, mainly electric cars. The software powering Google's cars is called Google Chauffeur. Lettering on the side of each car identifies it as a "self-driving car". The project is currently being led by Google engineer Sebastian Thrun, former director of the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and co-inventor of Google Street View. Thrun's team at Stanford created the robotic vehicle Stanley which won the 2005 DARPA Grand Challengeand its US$2 million prize from the United States Department of Defense. The team developing the system consisted of 15 engineers working for Google, including Chris Urmson, Mike Montemerlo, and Anthony Levandowski who had worked on the DARPA Grand and Urban Challenges.
Legislation has been passed in four U.S. states and Washington, D.C. allowing driverless cars. The state of Nevada passed a law on June 29, 2011, permitting the operation of autonomous cars in Nevada, after Google had been lobbying in that state for robotic car laws.The Nevada law went into effect on March 1, 2012, and the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles issued the first license for an autonomous car in May 2012, to a Toyota Prius modified with Google's experimental driverless technology. In April 2012, Floridabecame the second state to allow the testing of autonomous cars on public roads, and California became the third when Governor Jerry Brown signed the bill into law at Google HQ in Mountain View. In December 2013, Michigan became the fourth state to allow testing of driverless cars in public roads. In July 2014, the city of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho adopted a robotics ordinance that includes provisions to allow for self-driving cars.
On May 28, 2014, Google presented a new prototype of their driverless car that had neither a steering wheel nor pedals.
On December 22, 2014, Google unveiled a fully functioning prototype of their driverless car and planned to test it on San Francisco Bay Area roads beginning in 2015.
Google's robotic cars have about $150,000 in equipment including a $70,000 LIDAR system. The range finder mounted on the top is a Velodyne 64-beam laser. This laser allows the vehicle to generate a detailed 3D map of its environment. The car then takes these generated maps and combines them with high-resolution maps of the world, producing different types of data models that allow it to drive itself.
Currently (as of June 2014), the system works with a very high definition inch-precision map of the area the vehicle is expected to use, including how high the traffic lights are; in addition to on-board systems, some computation is performed on remote computer farms.

Selfie stick

selfie stick is a monopod used to take selfie photographs by positioning a smartphone or camera beyond the normal range of the arm.The metal sticks are typically extensible, with a handle on one end and an adjustable clamp on the other end to hold a phone in place. Some have remote or Bluetooth controls, letting the user decide when to take the picture, and models designed for cameras have a mirror behind the viewscreen so that the shot can be lined up.

Details


In 2014, South Korea's radio management agency issued guidelines for the sale of selfie sticks that use bluetooth technology to trigger the camera, as any such device sold in South Korea is considered a "telecommunications device" and must be tested by and registered with the agency.
A "telescopic extender" for compact handheld cameras was patented in Japan in 1983. Canadian inventor Wayne From patented his "Quik Pod" in 2005,
 and selfie sticks have been available in the United States since at least 2011. The product was listed in Time magazine's 25 best inventions of 2014.
The sticks are banned from all but two premier league football grounds in the United Kingdom, after complaints from fans whose views were obscured. Emirates Stadium, home of Arsenal Football Club, bans "any object that could be used as a weapon or could compromise public safety", and regard selfie sticks as such an item.
Some have dubbed the device the "Narcisstick".
