<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Samsung finally took the wraps off
 its three new Galaxy A (2016) smartphones on Wednesday that are a 
definitive upgrade over its predecessors. The new smartphones namely Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016), Galaxy A5 (2016), and Galaxy A7 (2016)
 feature metal build and will also be available in dual-SIM options. The
 Galaxy A7 (2016) is the most powerful among the trio, followed by 
Galaxy A5 (2016), and then Galaxy A3 (2016).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">As compared to their predecessors, the three smartphones boast of 
bigger displays, higher screen resolutions, upgraded processors, more 
RAM, higher resolution cameras, faster LTE connectivity support, and 
larger batteries. Here is a list of features that the Galaxy A (2016) 
handsets sport over and above the original Galaxy A3, Galaxy A5, and 
Galaxy A7.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>1. Bigger display</b> - Two of the three Galaxy A 
(2016) smartphones feature bigger displays than their predecessors. 
While probably aimed at offering a more immersive viewing experience and
 heightened productivity, on the negative side, increases the size of 
the smartphone. The Galaxy A3 (2016) and Galaxy A5 (2016)
 feature 5.2-inch and 4.7-inch display sizes respectively. For those 
unaware, the Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5 smartphones include 5-inch and 
4.5-inch display sizes respectively. The Galaxy A7 (2016) however, has 
the same 5.5-inch display like its predecessor.</span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>2. Higher screen resolution</b> - The second-generation Galaxy A 
smartphones not only feature bigger displays, but come with better 
screen resolution as well. While the original Galaxy A3 and Galaxy A5 
sported qHD (540x960 pixels) and HD (720x1280 pixels) resolution 
displays respectively, their successors now sport HD (720x1280 pixels) 
and full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution displays respectively. Once 
again, there's no change with Galaxy A7 (2016) as it features the same 
full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution display panel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image" style="display: inline;"></span></span><br />

 processors</b> - While Samsung has not yet fully detailed what SoCs it is 
using on the three Galaxy A (2016) smartphones, it has bumped up the 
clock speeds and/ or cores in all cases. The Galaxy A3 (2016) packs a 
1.5GHz quad-core processor as compared to Galaxy A3's 1.2GHz quad-core 
processor, while the Galaxy A5 (2016) runs on a 1.6GHz octa-core SoC as 
compared to Galaxy A5's 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 410 processor. The

 given more RAM to two of the three smartphones, which should result in a
 smoother UI and faster multitasking experience.The Galaxy A3 (2016) now
 boasts of 1.5GB RAM, which is 500MB more than what is present in the 
Galaxy A3. The Galaxy A7 (2016) houses 3GB RAM, which is 1GB bump from 
Galaxy A7's 2GB RAM. The amount of memory on the Samsung Galaxy A5 and 
Galaxy A5 (2016) stays the same at 2GB RAM.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>5. Higher resolution 
cameras, with OIS</b> - Samsung has updated the optics of the new Galaxy 
A-series smartphones. The biggest difference is the inclusion of the 
optical image stabilisation (OIS) feature for two of the three 
smartphones, which should help deliver more stable shots and video 
capture. The Galaxy A5 (2016) and Galaxy A7 (2016) now come with the 
optical image stabilisation feature. Talking about an increase in 
resolution, the Galaxy A3 (2016)'s rear camera has been bumped up from

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It seems like Facebook-owned popular messaging service WhatsApp is blocking links to rival messaging applications – at least <b>Telegram app </b>for now.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
Although users are free to send or receive Telegram links on WhatsApp,

This strange behavior was first <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/Telegram/comments/3utvyq/whatsapp_playing_low_really_low_cant_clickcopy" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">noticed</a> this morning by Telegram users over on Reddit.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
The URLs – which are generally automatically made clickable – still 
appeared as plain text messages, but they didn't register as hyperlinks,
 blocking users from copying or forwarding them to other users or other 
apps.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, this strange behavior was not exhibited on every device. Only 
WhatsApp for Android is currently showing this behavior while Telegram 
URLs still work fine on the iOS version of WhatsApp.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

 the situation to The Verge that the Facebook, who owned WhatsApp, is 
indeed responsible for the issue, as the social network has used this

its users from visiting Torrent websites.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Yes, it's time to shift from Wi-Fi to <b>Li-Fi</b> — an alternative technology that is <b>100 times faster than the average speeds of Wi-Fi</b>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Scientists have just field-tested the new wireless technology called <b>Li-Fi</b> for the first time and achieved marvelous wireless speeds that are 100 times faster than current WiFi speeds.</span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
What is Li-Fi Technology?</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Li-Fi is a new wireless technology that transmits high-speed data using light (i.e. <b>Visible Light Communication</b> or VLC) rather than radio bands.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In short, Li-Fi is a Super-Fast alternative to Wi-Fi.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="main-article-info">Earlier this year, scientists achieved mind-blowing speeds of <b>224 gigabits per second</b>
 (Gbps) in the lab using Li-Fi. It's believed that this technology has 
the potential to change everything about the way we use the Internet 
today.</span></span></div>

Test Results: Li-Fi is 100 times Faster than Wi-Fi</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
An Estonian startup company called<b> Velmenni</b> took the technology 
out of the laboratories and into the real-world offices, and industrial 
environments in Tallinn for the first time and, believe me, it's really,
 really fast.</div>
</span></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="main-article-info">The company was able to transmit data at 1GB per second, which is almost 100 times faster than the Wi-Fi speeds.</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="main-article-info">
</span></span>
<blockquote style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="main-article-info"><i>"We are doing a few pilot projects in different industries where we can utilize the VLC technology,"</i> Velmenni's CEO <b>Deepak Solanki </b><a href="http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/lifi-internet-first-real-world-usage-boasts-speed-100-times-faster-wifi-1530021" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">told</a> IBTimes UK.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="main-article-info"><i>"Currently we have designed a smart lighting solution for an 
industrial environment where the data communication is done through the 
light. We're also doing a pilot project with a private client where 
we're setting up a Li-Fi network to access the Internet in [our] office 
space."</i></span></span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span class="main-article-info">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unlike Wi-Fi network signals, Li-Fi is based on light and can't 
penetrate through walls, which makes it more secure from external 
sniffing. Meanwhile, it also means there is less interference from other
 devices.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Who Invented Li-Fi?</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Li-Fi technology was originated in 2011 by German physicist <b>Harald Haas</b>,
 who outlined the idea of using light bulbs as wireless routers during a
 TED Talk. He demonstrated that with a flickering light from an LED, one
 could transmit more data than a cellular tower.

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">If you're not already using Google Photos, you just got a damn good reason to start. Thanks to a new update, the app <a href="https://plus.google.com/+GooglePhotos/posts/iuY2uPQWD17" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">now offers a handy "Assistant" </a>that will free up space on your phone with two taps. And you won't lose the photos either!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The new Assistant feature is available in the settings menu. It'll 
prompt you to delete photos and videos that are already backed up on 
Google servers-where you get free unlimited storage, by the way. </span>

<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The app will also notify you if you're low on storage and give you the

Again, everything should already be backed up, so you can keep

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For the second (or maybe third?)
 time this year, Google is overhauling its fledgling social network. Or 
whatever you want to call Google+. Me, I call it a zombie. This thing 
just won't die.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The press release humbly <a href="https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/11/introducing-new-google.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">reminds you of this fact in the first line</a>:
 "If you head over to Google+ today, you'll see that things look a 
little different." That should read: "Please head over to Google+ today 
for the first time since it launched..." Because honestly, who even knew
 Google+ still existed?!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">All jokes aside, Google+ does have some
 users, and those users will hopefully enjoy this little upgrade.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> If 
you're one of them and you do head over to Google+ today, you might 
notice a new emphasis on Communities and Collections. <a href="https://plus.google.com/+googleplus/posts/HGGrZbWW9gV" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Launched in 2012</a>,
 Communities has endured as the most popular Google+ feature, though its
 hard to measure popularity if you're taking a survey of an empty room. 
Collections <a href="https://plus.google.com/+googleplus/posts/7ZpGWeou2sV" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">launched earlier this year</a>, and it's since resembled the bastard child of a convoluted Reddit and a less beautiful Pinterest. But somebody must like it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Nevertheless, the new Google+ is focused on these group-friendly 
features. The end goal, Google says, is to "solve real needs and make 
life easier for people." This is a Google-wide philosophy that makes 
good sense when you consider some very smart people under the Mountain 
View company's huge umbrella are trying to cure cancer and building self-driving cars. At some point you have to wonder why Google can't stop trying to create its own Facebook clone.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Instead, the tattered carcass that is Google+ rises up from the dead on
 a semi-annual basis reminding us of its sad existence. You can try to 
forget that it's there, stretching out its undead arms, hoping to grab 
your attention. Google will undoubtedly try to point the zombie in 
another new direction after this one doesn't work out.</span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Well, OK, it's not the kind of dongle you'd expect. The paperback sticky

 as a computer.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Ericsson's flagship Mobility Report is now out and some interesting data
 has been published by the firm. While global mobile subscriptions were 
found to be growing at 5%, the Indian mobile subscriber count has 
increased by 13 million this past quarter, the report said.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /> The
 number could only increase over the coming days as manufacturers look 
to launch more devices perfectly suited for every demographic in the 
country.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /> The report also found that 5G networks will become a standard soon and will hit 150 million subscriptions by 2021.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

 Rima Qureshi, Senior Vice President & Chief Strategy Officer, 
Ericsson, says: "5G is about more than faster mobile services - it will 
enable new use cases related to the Internet of Things. For example, 
Ericsson has built a prototype testbed for applying 5G networking 
functions and data analytics to public transport, which can save 
resources, reduce congestion, and lower environmental impact. ICT 
transformation will become even more common across industries as 5G 
moves from vision to reality in the coming years."</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

 world, which is no surprise really. As for other major mobile markets, 
Ericsson's survey found that China will overtake the U.S. by the end of 
the year as the largest 4G LTE market in the world with more than 350 
million subscribers, which is about 35% of the world's 4G LTE 
population. It is said that by 2021, China will have 1.2 billion 4G LTE

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Uncomfortable with your wristband fitness tracker? Now you can bury it 
somewhere in your closet as your smartphone would be your new fitness 
tracker, say researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 
(MIT).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">A new system called BioPhone, developed by researchers at MIT, 
can take your heart rate, breathing and other physiological measurements
 while it sits in your bag or pocket - without even touching your body, 
MIT Technology Review reported.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"
     style="display:block"
     data-ad-client="ca-pub-7726750987177406"
     data-ad-slot="7596682374"
     data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The BioPhone derives biological 
signals from your phone's accelerometer and it can capture the small 
movements of your body that result from the beating of your heart and 
rising and falling of your chest, <a href="http://www.technologyreview.com/news/543306/track-your-heart-with-your-phone-even-if-your-phones-in-your-bag/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">researchers said</a>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Lead author of
 the study, Javier Hernandez, said it is meant to capture this data 
during moments when you are not moving much and the data could be used 
to help figure out when you are stressed out and then help you cope with
 it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For example, your smartphone might suggest you try some breathing exercises or ask a loved one to give you a call.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">To measure the utility of BioPhone, researchers asked participants to stand, sit and lie down with a smartphone in their pocket.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 data gathered from the smartphones were extremely similar and in many 
instances the same as FDA-approved heart and breathing-rate sensors.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">However,
 researchers still have to figure out how to measure heart and breathing
 rates reliably when the smartphone is in different spots like your back
 pants' pocket, which can change how the biological signals are picked 
up.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In other words, the farther you get from the heart, the harder it is to get a good reading.</span></div>

 Cable Crusader <a href="https://plus.google.com/u/0/+BensonLeung/posts" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Benson Leung</a> has been testing USB-C cables off Amazon, and it's not just the no-brand products that have been failing. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Leung's campaign mostly consists of ordering USB-C cables off Amazon,
 testing them to see if they meet the minimum standards or if they're 
just knock-offs, and then<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A25GROL6KJV3QG/ref=cm_cr_rdp_pdp" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> leaving scathing Amazon reviews</a>.

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Notably, there has been a three-fold increase in such demands in the first six months of this year as compared to last year.  </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">According to the data released by Facebook in its biannual government 
requests report, India made 15,155 demands, outnumbering 92 other 
countries in the list, Mashable reported. <br /><br /> In comparison, India had made 5,832 requests for content removal between June and December 2014. <br /><br />
 The company said the posts were censored to prevent religious unrest in
 the country and had mostly been reported by government agencies. <br /><br />
 "We restricted access in India to content reported primarily by law 
enforcement agencies and the India Computer Emergency Response Team 
within the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology because
 it was anti-religious and hate speech that could cause unrest and 
disharmony within India," the report read.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Want to stay in the know on the latest developments for Microsoft 
Office 2016? You can now join an Insider test program that will give you
 access to new features and updates ahead of their general release.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The
 Insider program, which is similar to Windows preview builds, enables 
you to provide Microsoft with feedback about its productivity suite as 
it tests out new apps and tools. Your feedback will help Microsoft to 
develop and tweak the product before it becomes available to the public. </span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The program is only available to Windows, Windows Mobile and

the works, according to Microsoft. </span><br />
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The community hub</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Another
 aspect of the Insider program is a community portal that enables you to
 discuss (and argue) about Office 2016. Don't like the interface? Let 
the community know. Want Microsoft to develop a new app? Crowdsource 
your idea with other Insiders. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Only Office 365 customers have 
access to the Insider program. However, Office 365 business users can 
access a similar program by opting into Office 365 First Release. </span><br />
<h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">About Office 2016</span></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Office
 2016 was released in September. New features include co-authoring for 
desktop versions of Word, PowerPoint and OneNote, as well as Skype 
in-app integration. </span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">  </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It’s hard to keep a conversation going on Tumblr
 due to its comment structure. Yes, you do have a nice back and forth 
going on someone’s post, but it’s hard to keep track sometimes. The 
folks over at Yahoo
 (who bought Tumblr if you didn’t know) believe that all the “cool kids”
 on the social network/microblogging site need to have an easier way to 
talk to each other even as they’re sharing or hearting posts. So now 
they have announced that a chat feature is “on its way” to your mobile 
app as well as the web version.</span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">If you get a smiling balloon icon on your Tumblr dashboard, that 
means that you will now have the ability to chat with other users, 
whether it’s to tell them you like their post, to get to know people 
whom you think are interesting, or even to let them know that you think 
they’re wrong (nicely, we hope). When you send a message to someone, 
that will also activate their chat feature, if they don’t have that chat
 icon yet.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The chat feature can also be used as “fan mail” for artists, brands, 
personalities, etc. You already have the ability to message them of 
course, but having a chat feature makes it much easier to respond, if 
you do want to respond to them. Since this is something new of course, 
Yahoo would like to hear your feedback on whether this is working.</span>

</script><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Don’t panic yet if you don’t see the chat feature yet on your Tumblr 
page or your Android app. It’s still rolling out to users so it might 
take some time. Or you can also wait until someone sends an initial chat
 message to you.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The feature can be turned on or off by

 the messages in this test will stick around an hour before they

Use "Hey Siri" Anytime from Any iPhone

<br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">If you don't feel like pressing the Home button, you can call up 
Apple's digital assistant app with a "hey Siri" voice command in iOS 
9-as long as your iPhone is charging or you're using an iPhone 6s or 
iPhone 6s Plus. Those limitations are designed to prevent battery drain,
 but you can actually access the shortcut anytime, anywhere on any 
iPhone just by keeping Siri active.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<ins class="adsbygoogle"

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">First, you need to activate the "hey Siri" voice shortcut via <b>General</b> and <b>Siri</b>
 in the Settings app. Second, you need to run Siri once and not say 
anything (or run a query of your choice). With Siri on the screen, the 
"hey Siri" voice command works until the display automatically locks, a 
time period you can set by tapping<b> General</b> then <b>Auto-Lock</b> in Settings.</span>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Obviously
 the main downside is your battery is going to drain pretty rapidly, but
 on those occasions when you need hands-free Siri access for 
something-in the car or when cooking, for example-it's a neat trick you 
can use to avoid having to physically tap your phone at all. With new 
iPhones supporting "hey Siri" whether or not they're on main power, it 
looks like we won't need this workaround for much longer.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Since Bluetooth was given an overhaul in 2010 with the 4.0 standard, 
it's surged in popularity. Now, it's about to get another serious spec 
bump, providing four times the range, twice the speed and even mesh 
networking.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The <a href="http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20151111005390/en/Bluetooth%C2%AE-Technology-Gain-Longer-Range-Faster-Speed" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Bluetooth Special Interest Group has announced </a>its
 plans for the future of the wireless standard, and they sound 
promising. First, it plans to bump its speed by 100 percent without 
increasing energy consumption. Second, it will increase the range of the
 low-power Bluetooth Smart standard by up to four times. Elsewhere, it 
also wants to introduce mesh networking to Bluetooth. That's actually a 
pretty stunning idea, that would allow devices to used the wireless 
connection to form building-wide networks, rather than one-to-one links.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">All
 told, those features will make the system way more useful. It's worth

 sometimes take longer for these features to filter through into 
commercially available products. But as spec bumps go, this is certainly
 one to be excited about.</span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Facebook uses a whole host of algorithms to work out which ads are most 
relevant to you, but you can take some control over the process by 
delving into your account settings and checking up on what the social

Click the <strong>Visit Advert Preferences</strong> button and you should see a long list of interests that Facebook believes you have.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">You
 might see other sections on this page, depending on where in the world

"We use information from your profile, actions you take on Facebook, and

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The social network has put together <a href="https://www.facebook.com/about/ads" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a rather comprehensive help section</a>
 on advertising on the service, which you may want to pick your way

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">If you click on any of the category headings on the<strong> Advert Preferences</strong>
 screen you can delve into individual subheadings-hover over the 
information buttons next to each one to see why Facebook thinks you're 
interested in this particular topic. It might be something entered on 
your profile, a Page you've liked, or an advert you've previously 
clicked on, for example.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Clicking on the crosses to the right of 
each entry is enough to remove the preference. Remember that you're not 
actually reducing the number of adverts you see, just adjusting their 
relevance. You'll see a small <strong>Undo</strong> link right after you've banished an entry from the list, but this disappears once you return to the Advert Preferences page.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Perhaps more useful is the ability to add interests so that Facebook 
might actually serve up something you might actually like. Use the 
suggested preferences list on the right, start typing in the <strong>Add a preference</strong> box or click <strong>Browse</strong>
 to pick a topic. You might be surprised at the level of detail that's 
available. Some individual movies and directors can be selected, for 
example.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">You can also tweak ad preferences from the News Feed 
itself, of course. Click the drop-down menu arrow next to any sponsored 
post and you'll find the option to hide it-this also tells Facebook that
 you don't want to see this type of advert again in the future (a pop-up
 dialog appears asking for feedback on why you've chosen to hide the 
ad).</span></div>

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"> You can now try Firefox OS on your Android handset without flashing a ROM on your device. Mozilla has <a href="https://hacks.mozilla.org/2015/11/firefox-os-2-5-developer-preview-an-experimental-android-app/" target="_blank">released a developer preview</a> of its mobile operating system that can be installed on Android devices as an app.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Firefox OS 2.5 Developer Preview acts as an Android
 launcher that can replace one's current home screen to replicate 
Firefox OS' interface and bring additional features. Users also get 
access to Firefox's Marketplace from where they can download apps and 
add-ons.</span></i>
<br />
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

</script><br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Users also get access to the Firefox
 Browser, which comes loaded with many privacy-centric features 
including the ability to enable tracking protection from websites and 
advertisers. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The browser also lets you pin shortcuts to the websites you
 like on the home screen - turning them into Web apps. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In our test, we observed that the app was slightly slow - which is 
understandable as the app is in its preview phase. The app also seems to
 have been designed for an entry-level handset that presumably comes 
with a low-resolution screen. On our test Android device with FHD 
display, the icons and the interface in general appeared to be blown up.
 Even after making some adjustment in the settings, things still looked 
bloated. </span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For those unware, Firefox OS is an open-source, Linux-based mobile 
operating system meant for smartphones. The lightweight operating system
 uses open Web standards such as HTML5
 and open Web APIs. It was first unveiled in February 2012, since then a
 handful OEMs have launched Firefox OS-powered handsets, with India's Intex and Spice being some of the recent partners.</span></i>

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Over the years, the traction of Mozilla's mobile operating system has
 remained negligible. A ROM for Firefox OS has been available for quite 
some time, but it required users to manually flash their device and 
replace the existing Android software. The move to make it available as 
an app could give Firefox OS more exposure.</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">

</span></i><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The installation file weighs around 90MB and is available for download from <a href="https://hacks.mozilla.org/2015/11/firefox-os-2-5-developer-preview-an-experimental-android-app/" target="_blank">the company's website</a> (and not the Play Store).</span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Think 100Mbps over a fiber connection is cool? Try 1000Mbps (1Gbps) 
over a wireless 4G connection. That's what Aussie carrier Telstra and 
Ericsson just hit in their new network testing.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">That's right: 
using LTE-Advanced and carrier-aggregation tech, Ericsson and Telstra 
pulled down 1Gbps over 4G wireless as it gears up to build a new 5G 
network.</span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The two network giants smushed together 100MHz of mobile spectrum 
across five different frequency blocks: 700MHz, 1800MHz, 2100MHz and two
 20MHz portions of the 2600MHz band.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Of course, it'll be a long time before you <em>ever</em>
 see this sort of speed on your mobile device. The fastest 4G standard 
on consumer-level devices available these days is Category 11, which has
 a theoretical maximum speed of 600Mbps. Currently, Telstra is the only 
one selling a 4G modem that goes that fast, and even then it's still a 
"theoretical" "maximum". Those Category 11 devices will likely never 
even see 600Mbps on their clock.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Telstra nailed down the 1Gbps 
speed on a special device designed for hardcore network testing. It's 
called a TM500 and it's made by a company called Cobham Wireless. 
Translation: it's not your iPhone.</span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Despite the fact that you'll 
not be using these speeds until around 2020, it's great news that we're 
charging ahead into a speedy future.</span><br />
