Warning: This Post is simply a collection of thoughts and theories from other peoples blogs and articles(not all of which are correct). It is not guaranteed to be correct. For all I know the rapture might happen in 5 min. Don't kill me If I am wrong

This will be a 4 point post

Google
What do they have? What can they do with it?
-Google has the most powerful Search engine on the net.
-They have Computer edited news.
-They have personalized search. And Advertisements based on your interests and preferences.
-Also their Storage, they currently store information about ever user and their preferences, interests, searches, mail, commonly visited sights....

They know your internet experience better than you do.
They have petabytes and petabytes of storage and new storage banks are made every day.

This Paragraph doesn't fit anywhere so I am putting it here

Wireless internet speeds has been increasing exponentially for the last 10 years 1mb per second is normal in 1st world countries.
In less than a year accessing the internet over a wireless network will be as fast as accessing the data of a HDD(doesn't include SDD or Server grade x3600 HDD)

Apple- the company that makes OS X the most user friendly operating system on the planet.
Every body who uses it loves it. and for good reason to
Apple makes the highest quality computers, and they decide what the style of electronics is, no question about it. Apple it the style.

MBA(Mac Book Air)
This portable computer was never supposed to sell big, and it didn't. MOstly because of the price and low power/lack of features.
I think the MBA is a test product, it was made to test how compact a mac could get. They did fairly well but had to compromise heavily on the power(only 1.8 ghz, that is the same as my old iMac).
The most important thing to note before I spend hours talking about it is that it is small yet still very functional.
It is the most compact, portable, and light weight computer on the planet, made for the wireless world.

iPhone
As Apple said the first month of the iPhone release
"We never expected to sell so many iPhones(test products)"
The most coveted cell phone in the market.
Just a side note I have been trying very hard to buy a used iPhone on eBay for the last 2 months w/ only 50$ hard stuff
(you can read more about this on my other post)

What it the important thing about the iPhone?
Wireless anywhere internet and connectivity, touch screen easy to use interface.


iTablet
If you combine these two products you get only one thing.
A compact, light weight, portable, stylish, touch screen interface, and revolutionary wireless capabilities.
We must remember that this is a highly portable compact computer, it isn't a powerhouse.
Let us start with the basics

(ABCnews)

The tablet specs-
-5 by 7 inches seems like a good reasonable size. Enough to easily view Web pages, watch movies, and type. This will also allow enough space for a good sized battery.
-It should have a good 2.2ghz intel Core 2 duo. the xeon requires way to much power.
-A standard 2Gb of RAM like the MBA
-A large lithium battery to fill up all that extra space that can offer at least 6 hrs. of normal use.
-Lets add a built in rotatable iSight and GPS
(Apple Touch Device Patten)

The next to things might seem strange compared to most computers but this is why it is revolutionary.
-16GB SDD, seems small but it is more than enough if is is only to be used as cache.
- and finally wifi and G3 cell tower network. much like the iPhone

Why the small SDD and extreme wireless capabilities.
Simple Remote Hard Drive like the GDrive(Google Drive)

iTablet Services

-Of course Remote hard drive, all your data stored at one location safe and encrypted. You have easy access you your files from anywhere in the world. And if your tablet fails your data will still be on google and a new tablet can easily be synced with your new tablet account. Of course you will have a very large amount of personal storage space.

-You might be wondering what about my media? Google wouldn't want to store all the same songs and movies on millons of accounts. Apple could transfer all of their media to google servers. While keeping the contracts with music and movie studios. And rather than charging you to have access to the media via Remote Hard Drive, google can use their already developed Google Adds.
Rather than paying for access to the vast amount of music and movies you can simply view an advertisement before each Movie or after adding 20 songs to your personal music library.
The Adds will be designed for you, showing you things you have recently blogged, emailed, talked, and searched about. Also adds relating to commonly/recently visited sites and content viewed. The Add will be computer chosen to interest you. All you have to do is sit and watch it and at the end tell whether it was helpful or not to further inform them about you and your preferences.

-Social Networking
This is where facebook might get involved.
The iTablet will allow you to Call, SMS, conference call, and talk via iSight. All for free.
Of course I can't leave out Google Maps. As the apple tablet becomes more and more popular. Users will be able to see their friends location, statues, current activity, and even their face using the iSight.
You will be allows you to share pictures, videos, (some taken with the Apple Tablet much like a pod cast)favorite movies, music, and of course act like a blog for typing personal thoughts and ideas. Google can then electronically analyze this data
and help show relevant Adds when logging on and when using media.

How much will all this Cost?
The answer is simple.
The Tablet will go for 100- 300$ depending on quality/Apple Care and on power, battery, range ...
What about the Services Google will offer?
The coolest thing about all this is nothing, absolutely nothing.
Again advertisement
Every 2+ hours of use your tablet will ask you to view an add and tell whether or not it was helpful.

This is about all I have to say for now on the topic. I would like to mention Nick and his post on roughtype.com

My DNA

To Kara mostly
I saw that ting on your blog the DNA thing and tried it out.
Sense you added it to your blog I thought I would to.

My personalDNA Report

Interesting Topics (other than the movie) update

Sorry I haven't posted much about the movie. That is mostly because nothing has been happening the Landis boys are gone and things are about to get busy around here. Well sense this Blog is also about what is happening in my life I think I will start blogging again cause like I said stuff is starting to happen.

Movies:

In the last week I have seen several movies-Walli and Hankock. Tomorrow I am going to See Meet Dave, I am excited about it
Ok my opinion of Walli was good movie, well made, interesting, but it just doesn't hook me. I think the quality of movie scripts these days has gone down.

This poor quality script writing was again displayed in Hankock. The first half was really good up till after the back robbery. But after that the entire idea of lazy drunken hero no longer is relevant. The second half is just pointless. I wouldn't want to watch either of these movies twice.

Creative projects:

Twine Towers-two paper towers based off of design of the world trade centers. They are about 3 ft tall and very tediously made. My only regret is not using a ruler (looks slopier than it should with the method I used.

Chemical Reactions- This includes what I did today, two vinegar and Baking Soda bombs as well as a lame diet coke fountain.
The first Vinigar and Soda bomb's results were very positive. As Daniel threw it onto his side walk there was a very loud pop and the bottle blew out on two ends.
The second was pathetic as there was not enough Vinegar to produce the essential amount of CO2 required to pop the bottle as was done in the first test bomb. The only good thing about this test id how the plastic I lowered the baking powder into the bottle with was plastered against the wall. Both me and Daniel agreed as to why the results of the two bombs were different.
The Diet Coke and Mentos fountain was as lame as the second Vinegar bomb. The Coke pored out of the bottle rather than spewed. My dad suggested that the reason for this was not because of the defective Kazakh coke but because we had used Coke light rather than diet coke. I didn't know there was a difference mostly because I have drunken 2 in my whole life only because there was nothing else.

iPhone:
Well the progress on the iPhone is as I expected, there is none.
I have won no bids and only today convinced my dad to let me raise my max bid from 20 to 50$
My dad says that this is not the absolute best time to buy an iPhone and that I should wait for the frenzy to cool down but I am having a hard time going with that.(I want one now!!!!)
I have some issues I have to work out as far as responsibility and not loosing it and using it.
I have had some ad experiences with spending large amounts of money-
I was manipulated into buying a guitar I don't even know how to play
I bought a 30$ Ant Farm that I am to lazy to set up or maintain.
I bought a 90 $ air soft dessert eagle air soft gun which was confiscated right after I figured out how to use it. For give me but freak the expert at the air port.
My dad says I need to think this purchas over before I spend the money but I think I have thought enough about the iPhone in the past month I am done thinking.

I probably should hae made this more than one post but to late for that now =)
TTFN

Movie Location
