Timeline : feature that will become trend

Apple introduces Timeline feature

Apple has unveiled an auto-save system as part of its new operating system (OS) designed for the Macintosh.

The Time Machine is a new feature in its forthcoming OS, called Leopard, and lets users set auto-saves to hard drive or to online servers.

Files and folders can be backed-up and it also lets users search for files overwritten or altered in the past.

Speaking at an event in San Francisco, CEO Steve Jobs said only 26% of people currently backed-up files.

A number of third-party firms currently sell auto-save programs, but Mr Jobs said that just four percent of users used them.

Time Machine will let users retrieve old data, such as photos or documents, simply by moving a slider back in time within programs such as iPhoto.

A recent survey in the UK revealed that one-third of digital camera users are not backing up their photographs.

And here is a feature that will become a trend,as apple has always been a trendsetter,...i personally feel this is a nice feature,taking backup is something users tend to forget as i always said "Backup is something u remember when u have lost something important."

This feature will certainly help many users like me,Kudos to Steve Jobs and Mac :D

Janet Jackson's Water Demands

Janet Jackson has been dubbed a diva by staff at a London radio station for demanding chilled Fijian spring water before an interview.The singer reportedly sent assistants brandishing bottles of the water to Capital Radio's studios an hour before the interview so they could be chilled.When Jackson arrived, the water was then checked using a thermometer before being handed to the star.A station worker tells London's Evening Standard, "It was simply unbelievable the lengths she went to for a cold glass of water."She insisted the water was her very own, from a Fijian spring and cooled to a precise temperature before she would drink it.
"How anyone can tell the difference between a standard bottle of mineral water and some from a Fijian spring beggars belief."

This is really something,i sometime wonder what these celebrities think of themselves,..how uncool is that to ask for water from a Fijian spring :D so what's next "oxygen from a specified tree from a specified place"

welcome
