Technology is not far behind from what is in demand these days and apparently this includes creating peripherals that are in demand. Computer chips and processors are known to be one of the important parts of making technology and computing work and with that, Intel has revealed its first eco-friendly chips, the Xeon processors.

Doing its part towards the global warming phenomena, Intel is sure to get a large demand for these new eco-friendly Xeon chips. It has been customary to find people always wanting to be the first in having these new gifts of technology and with chips being at the forefront, all else is bound to follow as far as bundling and making these things available in the market.

Servers and common desktops are bound to be the main flagship of these new Intel processors and surely, both private and commercial groups in need of upgraded and eco-friendly technology are bound to see what this new installment offered by Intel truly has to offer.

The latest processors include three quad-core products: X5492, X5470, and L5430. The fastest of the chips has a clock speed of 3.4 GHz, while the low-voltage version uses 50 watts of power per core. The fourth new processor is the X5270, which runs as low as 80 watts with frequencies as high as 3.5 GHz.

The chips are aimed at manufacturers of workstations, blade servers, and mainstream servers, and are drop-in compatible with existing Intel dual-processor platforms that have been in the market since 2006. “Customers using these new Xeon processors will not only benefit from greater performance and energy efficiency within existing platforms, but they will be the very first to use Intel’s halogen-free technology,” Kirk Skaugen, VP and general manager of Intel’s server platforms group

INNOVATION WAY: "It’s in our interest to make the Internet better and without competition we have stagnation…As excited as we are about building Google Chrome, It’s important to help ALL Browsers become MORE POWERFUL –" - Google.com

What can I say? WOW!

I recommend all people to read the comic book that will explain everything one by one. Not just For the Programmers and Geeks But For ALL.

The folks over at Live Side shows us some early glimpses of the next version of Microsoft's Windows Live services, some which were once Windows Vista only applications. What I am most glad to see is the improved user experiences and integration, for instance, Windows Live Mail will finally have an integrated calendar, something I have been longing for since Microsoft introduced Windows Calendar in Vista.

The interfaces have been updated with a unified look and feel that presents a seamless experience across applications like Live Messenger and Photo Gallery. My main concern is with all these applications becoming separated from Vista and available as free downloads for even XP, what is the surface value of Vista? I understand architecturally that Vista is secure from technologies like Patch Guard, ASLR and are low level differentiators. But XP remains a dominant factor here and the more consumers see the consumer features of Vista becoming available for them, then the point of upgrading to Vista becomes even more pointless.

I personally wouldn't mind if Windows Live Writer was a web based service/interface that you access through the browser example:
http://writer.live.com

My reason for this is because I am not always at my main computer, I don't always have my laptop, which makes it impossibly to take advantage of some of the unique capabilities of Writer like text wrapping, Video integration, photos and so on.

Either Microsoft is always severely understaffed or developers can’t stick around for more than one release cycle. Nevertheless the coolest and most under-appreciated product from Microsoft - Windows Home Server is looking for a software development engineer to work on a couple interesting features for the next major release. And there’s nothing better that recruits the brightest and the best than a job posting that teases like this one posted today.

On the heels of a tremendous reception by customers for version 1 of Windows Home Server, the team just released power pack 1 last week, and is beginning the planning of the next big release. To staff up a rock solid team for delivering the top notch UI for the next release, we are looking for a developer with a strong passion for slick UI. You would be responsible for designing and coding the very visible and highly confidential UI capabilities that we are adding to Windows Home Server. Just to give a couple of examples – Time Machine compete (sp?) UI for backup and restore, Windows Media Center integration UI, Live Mesh integration UI etc.. are three of the top UI deliverables for our next version. Yes, we are positioning ourselves as THE backup and Media Server within the home by this release. We do not take UI lightly and have assembled a team that will bring the concept of ‘servers’ into the home with rave reception by both analysts and consumers.

What’s more interesting is that they’re also looking for someone with “solid working experience in WPF & XAML, WinForms, and Win32″ and “Silverlight application development experience is a plus”, indicating there might be some possibility these new user interfaces will be based off Windows Presentation Foundation for both the desktop application and browser management experience.

I don’t know about you but the next version of Windows Home Server is sounding pretty “rave” to me already.

Update: Not exactly sure what they mean by “Time Machine compete UI”. You could either interpret it as a “Time Machine-like UI” for backup and restore or “Time Machine integration UI” so WHS can integrate with Time Machine.

Update 2: From the looks of it what they mean is actually a “Time Machine like” user interface for browsing and restoring backups.
