What Will Windows 7 Look Like?

By now, everyone has heard of Microsoft’s next version of Windows, Windows 7 or used to be known as Vienna, would be made available in 2010. Every new windows spot a slightly change in the user interface, the most drastic changes would be the introduction of Windows 95 that caught the world by storm and sealed the entire computer industry’s fate where Microsoft became the world’s most powerful software company.

According to source, Windows 7 may spot a hypervisor or a drastic change in the user interface, this can be seen with Microsoft’s introduction of its Surface computer in late May. The surface computer looks like a coffee table with touchscreen interface that lets users move photos around by hand synchronize devices by placing them on the table. Sound like the tablet computer that Microsoft said would be a hit but turned out to be the other way round.

Here is a list of possible unique features in Windows 7:

  • Touchscreen user interface
  • Improved desktop search
  • Hypervisor Technology

    Desktop Tower Defense

    Desktop Tower Defense

    This game has been around for quite sometime now, from what I read was that it is very addictive, and so I tired, and it is addictive.

    Basically it is a striped down version of Warcraft 3 Tower defense, no fancy graphics or surround sound effects, Desktop Tower Defense requires only a browser with flash play it in your office or school’s computer lab without any installation.

    Desktop Tower Defense.

    Blackle the new Google Black

    Blackle the new <a href="http://www.geckoandfly.com/2007/10/12/google-1-ranking-for-make-money-online/" class="kblinker" title="More about google »">Google</a> Black’ /></p>
<p>A black version of Google Search, mind you, it is not the official Google nor recognize by Google itself. <a href="Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy.">Blackle</a> as it is called is a custom search engine powered by Google, it claimed that it require more energy to power a display that is white in colour, but we have to take note that this only applies to conventional CRT monitor and not LCDs.</p>
<p>Someone is out there to make a quick profit from cheap publicity. Reminds me of <a href="http://www.geckoandfly.com/2006/11/15/google-mirror-image/">Google Mirror</a> - A mirrored version of Google.</p>
<blockquote><p>Blackle was created by Heap Media to remind us all of the need to take small steps in our everyday lives to save energy. Blackle saves energy because the screen is predominantly black. “Image displayed is primarily a function of the user’s color settings and desktop graphics, as well as the color and size of open application windows; a given monitor requires more power to display a white (or light) screen than a black (or dark) screen.” Roberson et al, 2002</p></blockquote>

		<p><a href="http://news.zdnet.com/2100-1009_22-6197405.html">ZDnet</a> has an interesting article on how FBI remotely, I repeat - remotely plant a virus by email without the knowledge of the user, the manage to trace the user right after planting it without the user clicking on the virus. Which is pretty shocking right?</p>
<blockquote><p>The FBI used a novel type of remotely installed spyware last month to investigate who was e-mailing bomb threats to a high school near Olympia, Wash.</p></blockquote>
<p>The question is:</p>
<p><strong>If they can plant a virus, then they can plant evidence, too.</strong></p>

    “15 square kilometer of rain forest disappears every minute.” That is a sad fact, I do hope that bloggers like you and me could do something, something good to minimize the impact of issue. Bloggers like me and you can help the planet by constantly reminding the readers the important of Global Warming. I hope bloggers could set up banners or links to these kind of websites (WWF) for free, money is not everything.
