Thousands of Gmail accounts wiped.

Thousands of Gmail users have been left with empty inboxes after their accounts were accidentally wiped clean. As well as missing e-mails, many reported that their contacts had also disappeared. Google, which operates Gmail, said that a small percentage of its users had been affected. Some accounts have already been restored, suggesting the data was not permanently deleted. In a statement, Google said: "This is affecting less than .08% of our Gmail user base, and we've already fixed the problem for some individuals."

Intel launches high speed Speed cable(Thundrbolt)

Intel launches high speed Thunderbolt connector Chip manufacturer Intel has announced it is to roll out a new technology for connecting computers and peripherals.Continue reading the main story The system, know as Thunderbolt, promises transfer speeds twice as fast as USB 3.0. However it won't reach its theoretical maximum because Intel has opted to use copper wires rather than fibre optic cables. The company said it would gradually move to higher speeds over time. Apple will become the first manufacturer to use Thunderbolt, on its Macbook Pro computers. The Cupertino firm is said to have been a major driver of its development,...


Wi-fi and sat-nav study on Greenland iceberg formation

Scientists are to use wi-fi technology to study how Greenland glaciers break up to form icebergs. They plan to drop sat-nav sensors by helicopter onto a heavily-crevassed glacier to track its path and shape. Numbers of low-power wi-fi transceivers would continue passing on the data even if some are lost when the glacier breaks up or "calves" to form icebergs. Researchers at Swansea and Newcastle Universities have an £881,000 grant for the two-year project. Experts say they still have a poor understanding of how icebergs are formed. Glaciers at the edge of the Greenland Ice Sheet are thought to be particularly sensitive to changes in...


Windows update phone

Microsoft has withdrawn a software update for its Windows Phone system after it made some handsets unusable. The problem appears to have affected a small number of mobiles made by Samsung. Owners reported their phones crashing, and in some cases failing to start up altogether. Microsoft said it was working to fix the issue and would send out a new update as soon as possible. The download in question was the first update for Windows Phone since it launched last October. "In some circumstances it renders the phone completely unusable and can't be restored to a previous version," said Leigh Geary, editor of Coolsmartphone.com. "It is...


Microsoft welcomes Xbox Kinect hackers

Microsoft is to open up its Xbox Kinect technology to allow amateur software developers to experiment with it. The company is to release a software development kit in the spring, which will give developers access to the secrets behind the technology. For now it will only be for personal use, but Microsoft says it will release a commercial version in due course. Kinect, which turns the player's body into a game controller, has been a big hit since it launched last November. It has already captured the imagination of the hacker community, which has been demonstrating various uses for the technology, including 3D photography. Microsoft...

Julia Gillard's emotional speech for flood victims

Prime Minister Julia Gillard has struggled to hold back tears while speaking about those killed in last month's devastating floods. The Federal Parliament is considering a condolence motion for the victims of the Queensland and Victorian floods. Ms Gillard has paid tribute to the emergency personnel who helped pull people from the waters and those who died. She has spoken of a teenage boy and his mother who were killed when a wall of water hit Toowoomba on January 10. "The courage it takes for a young boy, 13-year-old Jordan Rice, to say to his rescuers, 'take my brother first'," Ms Gillard said. "And before that brave rescuer could return,...


Myanmar's opposition says sanctions on junta work

YANGON, Myanmar – The pro-democracy party of Aung San Suu Kyi endorsed Western sanctions against Myanmar on Tuesday, saying they hurt the authoritarian regime not ordinary citizens and implied it's too early to lift them. For weeks, there have been indications that the Nobel Peace Prize laureate was questioning her longtime support of sanctions. But a four-page report issued by her party Tuesday was the first clarification of her position and could temper any momentum to lift sanctions. Suu Kyi had suggested after her recent release from years of house arrest that she might be open to an easing of the measures. Her comments raised interest in the West, which has long taken its cues from her and her party on the subject. The report is bound to anger Myanmar's military rulers who have long...
