The advantage is that we should hostings manage the host, this ensures the company where service contracts. Instead the hotel can this gap and everything works perfectly, but instead if there are many rooms in use, the service will become worse and if we need our service works quickly maybe we go to another hotel or hire more stars Dedicated server.
Server: The servers, in Castilian servers, are at first glance, powerful computers dedicated to the customer and this ensures that all the system resources used one customer having 100% of the resources available for the use we want .
Course, hire a server has its drawbacks and the main one is that we have to devote to maintenance or hire some extra service to do it for us, in any case, more expensive to hire a hosting. We shall have the right system safe from hacker attacks (hackers), daily update in the system, backup and see that the system works 100%.

Aerogel graphene, the material world's lightest

The airgel, also called solid smoke and discovered in 1931, eventually became the world's lightest materials. Since air is composed by 96%, it is easy to see why it is extremely light.

Last year, the aerografito took first place thanks to its density of only 0.18 mg/cm3. It was very well received and acclaimed but his reign was short lived, as in these days, the graphene airgel became lighter material world.

A team of scientists from Zhejiang University has taken credit for the discovery of this substance, which is made ​​from coal "lyophilized" ie, freezing and drying. Graphene Aerogel is the name we have given to the new material, having a density of only 0.16 mg/cm3.

What most excites scientists not be the lighter material of history, but its spongy nature, allowing it to absorb about 900 times its own weight in oil and water.

Currently the research team is looking for new uses for the substance.

North Korean 3G service cuts

They say that good is short, and it seems to be true. North Korea is the country with more restrictions in the world. Even the Internet is saved. About a month ago, was released in North Korea a 3G network, and two days ago it was deactivated .

When the 3G connection was available, it appeared that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea finally begin to be more open and less strict. Even in the month of January began allowing visitors enter with mobile phones in the country, which was a novelty, and it is allowed even international calls. And in February, as we noted, was enabled Internet access via a 3G network Koryolink company.

The 3G network brand lasted a very short time. The service was cut without any explanation, since neither the North Korean government and the telecommunications company have made statements.

Tourists can still make international calls, but it is likely that this "service" will soon also be put offside.

What do you think of the actions of North Korea on issues relating to technology and communications?
