Now the new Kindle 2.0 is finally out, and there is a lot of buzz in the readers' society. Some people might ask why didn't Amazon release the new Kindle 2.0 in color? I personally prefer it to be in black and white, making it the experience as close as possible to reading an actual book. Besides, having color screen is going to consume much more battery power. I would not sacrifice battery life to have color, so to me it's not a big deal that Kindle did not release the new one with color, although they now have 16 shades of gray, as compared to 4 shades in the original. The amazing part of the whole Kindle experience is the Kindle Store. I was waiting for someone one day and I wanted to read...

While the Kindle wireless reading device lets you carry literally hundreds of e-books, newspapers, and magazines anywhere you go, your Kindle is actually pretty picky about the types of documents it will let you read. Free e-books, articles, white papers, and other documents you might wish to read on your Kindle are everywhere on the Internet. The problem is that they are not in a format that is "Kindle-friendly."

When I think about how kids learn to present themselves, one picture in particular comes to mind. I remember 12 years ago, when I was auditioning kids for a youth production of "The Wizard of Oz". There was a small, fragile and lovely little girl with a teeny tiny little voice who would only look at her shoes. Despite her shyness, her voice held immense promise. It was high pitched and as clear as a bell. She landed the part of the good witch, had her first solo, and by performance time, had stopped looking at her shoes. That same young lady is now a popular local country singer with her own CD. I realized during that audition process that most young people, unless trained, do not really have a clue...

I chanced upon this book titled "The Morphology of Modern Linguistics" at the recently concluded 2006 World Book Fair in Singapore. Intrigued, I browsed Wikipedia, my favorite people's encyclopedia, for "morphology," which is featured under linguistics, mathematics and even biology. What about technology, especially in the current midst of trend changes, and especially in the case of information technology? Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is one obvious platform that experiences the technological morphology. No longer must VoIP users be confined to their own voices while talking to families, discussing business matters or conducting long-distance interviews. Voice changers could conveniently...

The evolution of Medical transcription dates back to the 1960s. The method was designed to assist in the manufacturing process. The first transcription that was developed in this process was MRP, which is the acronym for Manufacturing Resource Planning, in 1975. This was followed by another advanced version namely MRP2. But none of them yielded the benefit of medical transcription. However, Medical Transcription equipment has changed from manual typewriters to electric typewriters to word processors to computers and from plastic disks and magnetic belts to cassettes and endless loops and digital recordings. Today, speech recognition (SR), also known as continuous speech recognition (CSR), is...

People always tell me that Southern California is just too expensive. Well let me tell you how I spent $20 on a fantastic day. It started out a Sunday morning and I had nowhere to go until 3:30 in the afternoon when I was catching my flight back to Dallas, Texas. Still being on central time I was wide awake at 4:30 in the morning. I checked my e-mail messages, jumped in the shower, got dressed and tossed my laptop into a backpack. I decided to take a revisit of a driving tour my wife and I had done during the summer, this time on foot. At 6 AM I walked into the Del Taco on Bristol Street in Costa Mesa for the two dollar "fiesta breakfast deal". Toss in a large Diet Coke and I was still under five...
