A car, which doubles up as a plane, took-off for the first time in public during the afternoon air show on the first day of EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. 

The prototypes of the car-plane hybrid, Terrafugia Transition, have been displayed at AirVenture for eight years now, but only in 2013 did the vehicle fly and drive in public, Stuff.co.nz reported. 

The Massachusetts-based company is hoping to market its drivable airplane to pilots, who detest being grounded by bad weather or have difficulty traveling after they land, the report said. 

Richard Gersh, Terrafugia vice president of business development, said that the hybrid provides the convenience of having your car and plane in one package. 

He added that the motor-cum-plane would be the next 'wow' car.

Yahoo on Wednesday said it bought e-commerce platform start-up Lexity, racking up its 20th acquisition since Marissa Mayer became chief last year.
Yahoo did not disclose the financial terms of the deal to buy Lexity, a four-year-old company specializing in software applications that help small businesses attract and service customers. 

Lexity, founded by former Yahoo employee Amit Kumar, boasts tens of thousands of clients spread across 114 countries. 

"We've been humbled by the overwhelming positive response," Kumar and his team said in a blog post. 

"We are excited to join forces with Yahoo and to continue building on our vision." 

Lexity applications will continue to operate as independent offerings. 

"We will continue to support the current platform, the Lexity Live app, existing customers, and third party apps and developers," Yahoo said. 

"In the near future, we plan to integrate the service with the Yahoo Small Business offering." 

The acquisition continues a shopping spree launched after Mayer became chief of Yahoo a year ago. 

Yahoo's growing list of acquisitions includes Qwiki, a New York operation behind an application that converts video and pictures on iPhones into sharable movie clips complete with music soundtracks. 

Yahoo has also bought Xobni, a startup behind tools for better managing contact lists and email inboxes, and Bignoggins Productions, a one-person operation specializing in fantasy sports applications for iPhones. 

Yahoo in June completed a billion-dollar deal taking over the popular blogging platform Tumblr, a move aimed at bringing more youthful users into the company's orbit. 

Since former Google executive Mayer became chief at Yahoo, the company has snapped up an array of startups including GhostBird, Alike, Stamped, Snip.it, and a Summly application built by a British teen. 

Mayer's plan for reviving the fortunes of the faded Internet pioneer includes making priorities of mobile devices, video, personalized digital content, and elevating the company's popularity outside the United States.

Google, after inviting more than 6,000 people to buy and try its controversial wearable computing device Google Glass in its Explorer programme, has reportedly allowed some of the owners to invite their friends to become part of the initiative. 

According to ABC News, Google Glass Explorers who bought the glasses received emails from the search giant to invite a friend to the programme.

Google said that it is always experimenting with new ways to expand its Explorer programme but did not comment upon the number of users it will be adding. 

The report said that only US residents who can pick up their Glass in San Francisco, New York or Los Angeles can be invited to join the programme and buy the device for $1,500. 

Google has also invited a group of professors and academics to join the programme and has partnered with film schools to explore the potential ways in which Glass can be used. 

Google plans to roll out the device debated for its privacy concerns by 2014, the report added.

Meet Sonny Dickson, the teenager behind Apple leaks

An Australian teenager has been reportedly found to be the source behind Apple products' revelations before they are officially unveiled. 

Sonny Dickson from regional Victoria has been found to be leaking and selling prototypes ofApple products online months or weeks before the original ones hit the market, Stuff.co.nz reports. 

According to the report, Dickson has been distributing photos of leaked Apple device prototypes for a number of years and he said that he had a keen interest in uncovering upcoming features in Apple operating systems by trawling through developer code for signs engineers have left behind. 

Dickson said that he doesn't go to the US or China to develop relations with sources but goes to online forums or on Chinese social networking websites like Weibo.com. 

Meanwhile, Apple has not taken any measure to stop the teenager which is likely because he is not an Apple employee or a worker from one of its suppliers' factories, but a person with strong contacts who seem ready to leak Apple information to him. 

The report added that he admits to be possibly breaking the law by on-selling the goods but he has changed the buying and selling process so that he doesn't actually have to touch the devices anymore, making him a middleman. 

He said that he has changed his strategy in January after one of his sources told him that Apple's global security team was about to start an investigation and added that his website's analytics data showed that in a recent one-month period it was viewed at least 100 times by Apple staff. 

An Apple spokeswoman declined to comment.

‘India unlikely to meet cybersecurity workforce target‘

India unlikely to meet cybersecurity workforce target: EC-CouncilIndia is unlikely to meet the target of creating a workforce of 5,00,000 cybersecurity professionals in next five years due to lack of infrastructure and investment, an official of security firm EC-Council said. 

The country is lagging behind in its fight in cyberwarfare which has adopted innovative ways to attack governments and organizations causing huge financial losses, Jay Bavisi, the president of EC-Council, which is a major global certification and training organization in information security domain, said. 

On the government's cybersecurity policy, which was launched early this month, he said that India is "extremely late" on framing the policy. 

"Cybersecurity policy is a great vision statement but I don't think India has got a tactical plan," Bavisi said at an event here today. 

"India does not have the environment. It is yet to be created. I would be pleasantly surprised if India meet the target (of creating workforce)," he said. 

The National Cyber Security Policy aims at creating a work force of 5,00,000 professionals in the next five years and build cybersecurity training infrastructure through public-private participation. 

He said that the US, which put in a lot of resources to create cybersecurity professionals, is seeing an annual growth of 15% in trained workforce. 

There is a need to involve academia like universities, impart training, set up labs and foster competition to deal with cybersecurity issues which is entirely missing in the country, he added. 

India is ranked ninth on Kaspersky's list of countries with the highest percentage of computer attacks. However the number of cybersecurity professionals in the country is very low, he said. 

Bavisi said that many of government websites are still exposed to threats as proper investment has not been made to find a long term solution. 

According to official data, more than 1,000 government websites were hacked in the last three years. 

"When a government website is got hacked they call professionals who fix the problem. But they have no budget to carry on. They have no budget to hire right people, to train them and defend their websites," he said. 

It is evident that the best way to solve the cyberplague is by introducing a cybervaccine programme that is needed to start at all levels of society through combative education plans, he said. 

EC-Council (International Council of E-Commerce Consultants) is one of the world's largest certification bodies for information security professionals. EC-Council is a member-based organization that certifies individuals in various information security and e-business skills.

Banks looking at voice biometrics for security

| |
0 comments
Some banks are in discussion to introduce voice biometrics as an option for authenticating phone banking. For banks, the main attraction of voice authentication is that this does not require deployment of infrastructure — unlike in the case of fingerprint or iris recognition — as mobile phones are widely available.

Banks are in talks with Nuance, a US company specializing in voice recognition and whose technology powers Apple and BlackBerryphones. While phones use speech recognition which is still evolving, voice recognition is a different technology altogether and more reliable than using PIN, according to Advait Deshpande, senior product manager (biometrics and security), Nuance Communications.

"A voiceprint is a hashed string of numbers and characters that represent how specific an individual's voice rates on a host of characteristics being measured. As such, a compromised voiceprint has no value to a hacker. It cannot be used to authenticate a system, nor can it be used to reverse-engineer someone's voice," said Deshpande.

"Globally, Nuance has several customers that have deployed voice biometrics commercially. In India, we are in talks with leading financial institutions and telecom companies for deploying voice biometrics."

It is not clear whether voice authorization will replace telephone PINor be an additional authentication factor. In most electronic payments, RBI has asked banks to put in place multi-factor authentication. For instance, in cards, an individual has to provide the physical card, a signature and — very soon — a pin number to authenticate transactions.

He points out that a 2012 study conducted by DataGenetics on the vulnerability of PINs states that 10.7% of four-digit PINs are "1234".

Nearly half of Chinese urban population have smartphones, according to a report released by internet search giant Google.

The 'Our Mobile Planet: China' report, compiled by Google and market research company IPSOS in the first quarter, surveyed 1,000 urban Internet users between the ages of 18 and 64 and found that 47 per cent of them have smartphones.

Smartphones have become an indispensable part of people's daily lives, as 69 per cent of respondents said they access the Internet on their smartphones every day and 38 per cent never leave home without the device, Chinese state run Xinhua news agency quoted the report as saying.

About 60 per cent of smartphone users said they would rather abandon their TV sets instead of their smartphones, according to the report.

In the US , the ratio is 36 per cent, the report said. Smartphones have also become critical shopping tools, with 98 percent of respondents having used their phones to research about products and services.

Some 69 per cent of smartphone users have made purchases on their phones, compared to only 46 per cent in the US, according to the report.

The limited size of smartphone screens and safety concerns regarding the use of credit cards are major barriers in expanding mobile business, according to the report.

Nokia Asha 501 review: Small wonder

| |
0 comments
While smartphone market surges, feature phones still make up the greater share of the total mobile phone sales worldwide. Therefore, it makes sense for a titan like Nokia to launch a phone that offers all the goodness of a smartphone at the price of a feature phone. Enter the new Asha 501, launched in India recently by the company's CEO Stephen Elop. This smart feature phone (as Nokia calls its Asha handsets) is an important device for the company, especially since Android devices are getting cheaper by the day (case in point being Samsung Galaxy Star and Intex Cloud X3).

So, does the new Nokia Asha 501 has what it takes to beat low-priced droids and rule the budget handset market? We had the same question when we got our hands on the device. Let's see what we found out through this review...

Design:
Nokia Asha 501 is an attractive little gadget that catches the eye as soon as you set your sight on it. Just like the Lumia 520, it betrays its price tag considering the quality of material used in building it. Its designing has been done well, such that the polycarbonate back and glass front merge seamlessly at the sides.

The front has a single hardware key (the Back button), while right side houses the volume rocker and Power/Lock key. On top are the microUSB port, charger inlet and earphone jack, whereas the left side is bare. Flip it to the back to check out the small rear camera and the key to remove the back.

Overall, we are quite impressed by the design of the Asha 501, which resembles the Lumia series to a considerable degree.

Hardware:
Coming to the specs, Asha 501 has a 3-inch screen with 320x240p resolution. The display is decent, with good colours and contrast. The phone has 128MB internal storage and 64MB RAM, figures that Android users will scoff at. However, these numbers are decent considering the platform that powers the handset. You get microSD support up to a healthy 32GB capacity, with a free 4GB card coming out of the box.

On the back, you get a 3.15MP camera, but there is no LED flash and front-facing unit. Connectivity options in the device include 2GWi-Fi, Bluetooth 3.0 and microUSB. While the proprietary charger (2mm pin) comes in the box, the phone also supports microUSB charging.

Software
This is where the magic happens. Nokia Asha 501 runs on the all-new Asha 1.0 platform, a mobile operating system that is heavily influenced by the now-dead MeeGo OS. The software is based on lots of swipes (thus explaining the absence of a Home or Options key) and even supports multitasking in its own unique way.

To unlock the phone, you can either click the Power/Lock key or tap twice on the touchscreen in quick succession. As the screen lights up, you swipe either to the left or right in order to open the apps menu; a swipe to either side from there brings you to the 'other' home screen called Fastland(more on that coming up).

What about apps, we wondered... Well, the revamped Asha 1.0 platform brings a host of apps with it, though many buyers excited about WhatsApp will be disappointed. However, what you do get here are applications like Facebook, Twitter, document reader, Weather, a combined mailbox, notes, calculator, calendar, music player and several others. Nokia is offering 40 free EA games optimized for the OS with this phone as well. If you want more, then you can head to Apps and AppNow. These two are dedicated app stores that stock several applications, like WeChat and third-party web browsers, music players and the likes, along with a host of games (paid as well as free).

All apps are easy to navigate through and you just need to swipe left or press the Back button whenever you want to go return to the previous page or close the app altogether. Each time you are about to close a running app, you are asked if you want to exit, thus avoiding chances of accidentally closing it.

Coming to multitasking, you get Fastlane - a home screen that shows the recent apps you have used, along with reminders. It is quite simple to use, with the whole list accessible via a scroll down the screen. However, the sad part is that you cannot pick up from where you left off when you close an app and each time you need to start from the beginning.

You also have a Notification Bar (just swipe down from top opens it). Here you get push notifications about unread mails and SMSs, missed calls and four toggles (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile data and Silent profile). When the phone is not in use, it displays the time, date, and information like unread SMSs and missed calls on an interface that Nokia calls Glance Screen.

We feel that the platform has a lot of strengths, though it needs to be a little more polished before it can take the fight to budget Androids and score a win.

Performance
The new Asha 501 smart feature phone by Nokia is not the fastest phone around and it does not pretend to be so. It is a budget device that offers a decent smartphone experience, with no lag. The hardware and software of the phone are tightly integrated, ensuring that the user experience is smooth and largely without the issues that plague cheap handsets (poor build quality, frequent hanging etc).

Instead, we like that the low-power Asha 501's capacitive touchscreen is responsive and the keyboard layout in different apps is well designed. Though we punched the wrong key while typing a few times, once you get used to it, the keyboard becomes easy to handle. Despite the software being so new, we had no trouble at all, meaning that it is well optimized for the tasks it is supposed to handle.

Camera Asha 501's 3.2MP rear camera takes pictures that offer good colours but do not display sufficient contrast and details. However, if you are going to upload most of the images you take on social networking sites, then it will be good enough for the job.

Audio in the phone is quite loud, though not exactly crystal clear. Viewing videos is certainly not a good experience on a device with such a small display and resolution. Its battery lasted nearly a day and a half on a single charge when 2G internet was kept turned most of the time. Usage pattern included a couple of hours of internet browsing, nearly 5-6 hours of music playback, an hour each of gaming and videos and approximately half an hour tinkering with other apps.

While we like several things in this phone, we had trouble setting up email accounts. The phone gave a lot of trouble while setting up Gmail and Yahoo accounts automatically, thus forcing us to do it manually. Similarly, we could not import contacts easily on the device. The absence of 3G meant that we could not use high speed internet on the go (2G remains painfully slow for our taste). Another thing we did not like was that all apps start afresh each time we have to exit them.

Rivals
Budget Android phones are available aplenty in the market today, with Samsung Galaxy Star being the closest rival to Asha 501. The case against Star is that its 1GHz processor, 512MB RAM and 4GB internal storage (theoretically much superior to Asha 501) do not give it enough muscle to render a smooth user experience. However, it has a bigger selection of apps, though such a low powered device cannot make full use of the functionality of the robust Android platform and there is usually a lot of lag in this device when it is filled with several apps.

This is the strong point of Asha 501, which did not show any signs of lag during our review. (We asked a Samsung salesperson at a New Delhi outlet which of the two is better and he/she pointed towards the Nokia handset, though he/she never said anything out loud.)

Conclusion:
Nokia Asha 501 is an exciting prospect for people who are graduating from feature phones to internet-connected handsets for the first time. It is well stocked with apps and features and offers all the functionalities of an entry-level smart-device. We like the seamless design as well as how the software and hardware complement each other at all times.

Without a doubt, we would recommend the Nokia Asha 501 to buyers who are looking for a phone under Rs 5,000.

What we like:
No lag
Unique user experience
Design
Price
Battery life

What we don't like:
Below average camera quality
Some key apps missing
No true multitasking
No 3G

Market price: Rs 4,999

Indian IT cheers Telangana state formation

After over three years of uncertainty, the Information Technology industry here heaved a sigh of relief with theCongress party's announcement to carve out a separate Telangana state. 

The announcement has cleared the air over the future of Hyderabad, a major IT destination in the country. 

This fast growing metropolis will be the joint capital of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh for 10 years. Andhra Pradesh is expected to build its own capital within that period. 

The IT industry welcomed the decision, saying it brought an end to uncertainty and brightened the prospects of the city attracting new investments. 

The industry with software exports to the tune of Rs 40,000 crore was worried over frequent shutdowns and spells of violent protests for separate Telangana state. This had taken sheen off brand Hyderabad. 

"I believe the decision has brought in a positive sentiment as the uncertainty surrounding the matter has finally been resolved," said V. Laxmikanth, managing director, Broadridge India. 

"Hyderabad, known for its large pool of talented IT professionals and as a base for leading MNCs, is expected to reclaim its reputation of being the destination of choice for businesses across industries," he said. 

BVR Mohan Reddy, chairman and managing director, Infotech Enterprises, said while he was not for or against the decision, he was anxiously looking forward for this decisive movement. 

"The separation problem has been voiced for the last 50 years but in the last three years some of these agitations have been (hurdles) for progress of the state. The uncertainty has slowed down the growth. That is now past." 

Suman Reddy, vice president and managing director, Pegasystems India, hoped the development will bring back stability in the business environment of the city. 

"Growth and expansion from the perspective of IT MNCs investing in the state had been stalled/relatively slow due to this issue, which hopefully will resume after the decision is announced," he said. 

Hyderabad, which emerged on the world IT map only in mid-1990s, is home to over 1,000 IT and ITeS companies including global majors like Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Dell, Oracle and Amazon. 

The IT and ITes sector provides nearly five lakh jobs.
