This adds an extra point security, but sometimes the problem is just remembering this password or share it with friends or colleagues at the office.

Many people hate cockroaches. Some seem disgusting, others fear them, etc.. But, what if you could control the movement of a cockroach? Is it possible to do that? Of course you do, and frankly not surprising given that the technology is now at a very good level. What we do soprende a bit which can be checked via a cockroach Twitter.
The Twitter Roach (that's the name that has been given) is a leading real roach over it a kind of wireless signal receiving device, which when received by the apparatus used two antennas stimulate the insect. Not the first time you see something like that, only this time using a processor Audino and is using Twitter.
The aim of Brittany Ransom with Twitter Roach is whether insects react in the same way that people with a lot of fast signals.
Anyone can send tweets to @ TweetRoach with the hashtags # TweetRoachLeft or # TweetRoachRight and insect should react. To prevent an overload of messages, only receive every 30 seconds, so many of the tweets sent simply do not have sufficient effect. It should be noted further that the cockroach does not always put the device on his back.

In addition, LG also plans to unveil a new 7-inch screen that also feature full HD resolution and will have a density of 324 pixels per inch.
What's more, because we can also see a display of 12.9 inches QSXGA with resolution of 2560 × 1700 pixels and finally appreciate a 13.3 for ultrabooks.

The App Store Windows 8 continues to grow. Each day adds a new app to the selection available in the Windows 8 Store and indeed in the last month 14,000 applications have been added by site MetroStore Scanner. With this, the store has managed to exceed the total of 35,000 applications available for download and will continue to grow even more. Obviously yet still has a long way to go to reach those with the greatest stores, currently Apple and Google .
Initially when Windows 8 was released in late October, there were 10,000 applications, which became 13,000 in a week. It is estimated that today some 415 applications are added daily, ie so that when starting February should be the total of approximately 50,000.
Still, that's less than what Microsoft expected, since they say the store will have 100,000 applications for February. Will they meet this goal or fall by the wayside?
