Future Tech


A US company with a branch in Taiwan recently revealed a prototype transparent phone. The new phone is composed of a conductive glass that is toughened to resist scratches and shattering. It’s thinner and twenty-five percent lighter than an iPhone 5, and features a larger 4.3 inch screen. Both front and backsides of the phone can display images but it can only be touch activated from one side.

The good news (aside from it being cool tech) is that its going to be sold cheaper than the iPhone 5. Although the company has yet to reveal how much cheaper. You don’t have long to wait for the answer. The new phones will be on shelves this year. To see the phone and learn more about the product check out the video below.

Wiki Leaks


For those of you who haven't been following the news. Wikileaks and its founder Julian Assange have been under global attack. WikiLeaks is a non-profit media organization dedicated to bringing important news and information to the public. They provide an innovative, secure and anonymous way for independent sources around the world to leak information to journalists. 

They publish material of ethical, political and historical significance while keeping the identity of the sources anonymous, thus providing a universal way for revealing suppressed and censored social injustice.

WikiLeaks released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad -- including two Reuters news staff. Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. 

The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-sight, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded.

This video and the Wikileak of the Afghanistan War Logs over the summer has made the US contact its ally countries and attempt to shutdown and block the website. Here is a link to the video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rXPrfnU3G0  do to its sensitive nature I can't post it below.
