Κρύος ιδρώτας, χέρια που τρέμουν, δακρυσμένα μάτια, είναι τρία από τα πολλά χαρακτηριστικά της κατάστασης που βιώνεις μόλις διαπιστώσεις ότι τα πολύτιμα σου αρχεία, φωτογραφίες, μουσική, video, έγγραφα, κτλ. δε βρίσκονται πουθενά στον υπολογιστή σου γιατί έχουν διαγραφεί. Είτε από δικό μας λάθος είτε όχι, όλοι μας έχουμε βρεθεί σε μία τέτοια κατάσταση κάνοντας τα [...]

Google Earth 6.2 removes 'patchwork quilt' effect
The latest release of Google Earth is here, and it's a pretty significant one — a new rendering technique in version 6.2 allows you to smoothly pan and zoom around the world without running into the "patchwork quilt" effect. Earlier releases had the problem of matching images that were taken at different times or in different weather, but the effect is fairly seamless. It's not quite perfect everywhere — for example, close-ups of the North Korean capital Pyongyang reveal shifts in color balance along the edges of images — but it's a much less jarring transition than remains in Google Maps (see below). The new rendering will be in all versions of Google Earth, though the company says that the desktop version of 6.2 should provide...

The Gmail logo was designed the night before the service launched
How many times have you been told not to leave something for the last minute, but when you did, it actually turned out better than expected? Well, Gmail's logo was the product of this situation — it was designed by Dennis Hwang (who's responsible for most of Google's doodles at the time) the night before Gmail launched. Former Google designer Kevin Fox tells the story on Quora: "The logo was designed literally the night before the product launched. We were up very late and Sergey and I went down to his cube to watch him make it."
What's even more interesting here is the logo itself. Fox notes that its letters are in two different fonts — the 'G' is in Catull, the same font as Google's logo, while the 'ail' is in Myriad Pro because...

Ο Jerry Yang ήταν ένας από τους ιδρυτές του Yahoo! που έγινε ιδιαίτερα γνωστός τα τελευταία χρόνια ως το άτομο που δεν κατάφερε να φέρει το Yahoo! στον ίσιο δρόμο αφού ανέλαβε CEO αλλά και ως η αιτία που [...]

Apple postsones iPhone 4S sales in Shanghai and Beijing stores after chaotic launch crowds
Apple has delayed sales of the iPhone 4S at some of its stores in China after the launch crowds at Apple's flagship Sanlitun store in Beijing got more than a little rowdy. Police had reportedly told Apple not to open the store as scheduled due to the massive crowd, which then turned into something of a mob and threw eggs at the storefront. The New York Times put the crowd in context by noting that many of the people in the crowd were actually migrant workers who had been paid to go and wait to purchase the phone, so when the store didn't open they were not going to be paid. Police dispersed the crowd.
In a statement to AllThingsD, Apple said that it would be pausing sales for awhile in some stores, and reportedly the company sold out of...

The best ultrabooks of CES 2012
By my count, there have been more than 20 ultrabooks announced here at CES 2012. That's a lot of laptops, especially when you consider that most of them have the same attributes: thin cases, Core i5 processors, solid-state drives, chiclet keyboards and single-button touchpads. But one has to be the best right? One would think, but choosing just one ultrabook amongst all of them isn't really fair. Some are cheaper than others, some aren't coming until the end of the year, and some have put a strong focus on higher end features. Picking four of the best, on the other hand, is the way to go, and that's exactly what you will find below. Without further ado, the best ultrabooks of CES 2012:

How Often Should I Charge My Gadget's Battery to Prolong Its Lifespan? [Ask Lifehacker]
What is the deal with lithium-ion batteries (the kind found in smartphones and laptops)? I've heard lots of different things about how to take care of them, like that they need to be kept charged between 40% and 80%, or that they should be drained completely and charged to 100%. What is the ideal approach to maintaining a good battery-life-to-battery-health ratio? More »

Samsung: Super OLED 55-inch TV on sale 'second half of the year'
Samsung just joined LG here at CES 2012 with the introduction of its own 55-inch OLED TV. Like its Korean cousin, Samsung promises accurate color reproduction and "true-to-life picture quality" — not the typical hallmarks of oversaturated OLED panels. Super OLED features self-emitting RGB sub-pixels and is faster than LED, according to Samsung, "virtually eliminating motion blur." The TV also features the company's new "Smart Interaction" technology for TV control, relying upon two unidirectional mics and an integrated webcam for motion and voice control (on / off, volume, app activation, and browser search), and even face recognition like the 55-inch Lenovo K91 smart TV announced yesterday. And like the K91, the Samsung Super OLED TV...

LG at CES 2012
LG's 2012 is off with an OLED bang, courtesy of the company's new 55-inch HDTV. It is the world's thinnest, lightest, and largest OLED TV yet. Also introduced at CES 2012 was the LG Spectrum LTE handset, which brings the same 4.5-inch 720p IPS display of the Nitro HD to Verizon subscribers. And that's before the doors to CES have even opened.

SpareOne: a cellphone that lasts for 15 years on a single AA battery
The SpareOne is a simple phone from Xpal Power that'll hold a charge for up to 15 years unused, and should give you 10 hours of talk time all from a single AA cell. The phone is designed for use in emergency and travel situations — it features a flashlight, and transmits location data along with caller ID. Not to miss a chance for cross-promotion, Xpal Power is recommending its own Energizer Ultimate batteries, and one is included with the phone. The phone goes on sale nationwide for $49.99 this quarter.

Movie Explorer acts as your film librarian for Windows
If you're a Windows user drowning in movies on your hard drive, and struggle to remember the difference between True Romance and True Lies, then Movie Explorer by Anlarke might be just the app you're after. Once you've chosen the folders your movies are kept in, the app scans the files and adds data from both IMDb and Moviemeter, including titles, descriptions, artwork, and user ratings. This is used to create a more manageable library similar to XMBC and Plex, with a clean user interface and flat-level file browsing. However, unlike these full-fledged media centers, videos will play within your favorite media player.
While the software is relatively simple, it's sure to fill a gap for some of you. We gave it a shot, and found it...
