Radio Frequency Identification – RFID in plain English

Vijay — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 07:53:04 +0000

What if barcodes were replaced by chips that could not only be read more quickly but could have their information updated as well? And what if those chips could communicate with other devices? These chips already exist and the technology they use is called RFID – short for Radio Frequency IDentification.

RFID from wiki …

Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is the use of an object (typically referred to as an RFID tag) applied to or incorporated into a product, animal, or person for the purpose of identification and tracking using radio waves. Some tags can be read from several meters away and beyond the line of sight of the reader.

Below given animation video is RFID in plain English and explains how it is rapidly becoming a key technology.

Isn’t an interesting explanation?

Just wondering the supermarkets like Asda & Tesco without any counters and queues!!!

Further to the previous post Ten levels of intimacy in communication, I have got an updated version from my friend which is Five levels of intimacy in communication.

I like the rearranged version too; in-fact it makes sense.

Thanks to Kamal

Visual Trace Route Tool

Vijay — Mon, 03 Nov 2008 23:00:34 +0000

Have you ever imagine, how are your website URL requests travelling to its host server?
What if you know the travelling path of your network packets?
Do you want to travel along your network packets?

Exciting! Isn’t?

Recently I came across an interesting online tool which tracks the path of any URL request path till its destination.

YouGetSignal provides this feature to know about the path of the Internet packets.

youGetSignal says, “The visual trace route tool displays the path Internet packets traverse to reach a specified destination. The tool works by identifying the IP addresses of each hop along the way to the destination network address. The estimated geophysical location of each hop is identified using MaxMind’s GeoIP database. After all of the hops locations’ are identified, the path to the destination is plotted on a Google Map.

Visit YouGetSignal and give any website URL in the Remote Address text box and click on Proxy Trace; you will get the IP packet traverse path.

Google Chrome – Google into the browser war

Vijay — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 07:07:05 +0000

Google is releasing its new browser, Google Chrome today. Official blog of google published an article on this.

Google also published a comic book to explain the features of Google Chrome. You will find some interesting features in this comic book.

As it is a open source project, this would definitely give tough competition to Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla FireFox. On the other side, Microsoft is very busy in releasing Microsoft Internet Explorer 8. Recently Microsoft released the beta version of IE 8. Because of Google Chrome release, the browser war now just got more interesting.

I am very curious to experience Google Chrome. You can download Google Chrome here. Please note that, It is yet to be released.
