How does that Touch Lamp Work?

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

So if you have ever seen a lamp tha tyou can turn on or off just by touching it, I’m sure that you’ve wondered to yourself “How exactly does that work?” Well it’s actually a pretty simple item. There is a switch inside the lamp that works a lot like normall on and off switches but instead of being flipped by the movement of a finger, it’s flipped by the heat and energy from your finger tip. Our bodies all carry a certain amount of energy and all a touch lamp does it use that energy to “Flip it’s own switch.” Pretty easy to use really.

Digital camera

Monday, March 1st, 2010

Over the last few years, the picture quality in digital cameras has becoming amazing. As recently as the year 2000, even the very best digital cameras you could buy produced grainy, poor-quality images that could never compare to what film had to offer. Today, though, digital cameras can easily rival and even exceed the quality of film, capturing pin-sharp digital images and never needing to be refilled with anything except power.

When you buy a digital camera, the most important thing you should look for is how many mega pixels (million pixels in the image) the photos it takes are. Cameras available today range from about 3MP at the low end to 10MP or more at the high end, with the price increasing steadily with each extra mega pixel.

However, how many mega pixels the camera has is not the only thing you should consider. Battery life is very important, as cameras with a short battery life can be frustratingly unusable, and the presence of various features in the camera’s software like auto focus and digital zoom should also be a consideration, as well as the camera’s ability to record non-photographic material like sound and video.

What is a DVD?

Friday, February 26th, 2010

You might ask yourself what a DVD is exactly. That’s a completely normal question, and don’t feel odd about asking it. In fact, for something so common in all of our homes and day to day lives, it’s surprising just how few people actually know what the DVD is anyways.

A DVD is really nothing more than an optic data storage disc for video, audio, and computer data. It really just boils down to being a better, bigger, faster CD that can hold a lot more information, including the movies and video’s that they are famous for. They eventually spawned the HD DVD and corresponding HD DVD Players.
