The CES show Las Vegas is the technology and software of the year. Each time mark held technology trends that will continue this year as manufacturers focus their efforts and what stores will be soon filled.

During the course comes in all, not just the major manufacturers that we are left with their mouths open with their SmartTV of 86 “, novel display technologies and voice control and movement. There are dozens of lesser-known manufacturers have much to tell, and the end are these that are really interesting things moving. The ESC hidden gems to not pay as much attention, but of course, the problem has CES obredosis that we experienced during these days.

There are so many gadgets, inventions, technologies, software and news submitted that it is impossible to take everything in the duration of the fair. After this time you can focus on what’s important and go scoring the rest, so although the CES Las Vegas 2012 has finally ended, I’m sorry, but we CES for a while, since the CES actually lasts all year. You will see more than once as I remember it with some “remember when he showed it at CES? As is already here. “

This year the main technological trend is clearly marked by television, namely SmartTV (go accustomed to this term). These SmartTV what they do is change the concept way to enjoy television, to create a bidirectional channel in which we not only receive information without being able to interact, but we became who we are in control.

This involves not only television services on demand, but to pause what we’re seeing, surf the Internet, check the league stats while watching a game or even play games. Go prepared for these new fashions, which also apparently are accompanied by an increase in the average size of the screens, since what we have seen typically presented 55 “up.

So once the CES 2012 we can continue our lives, but do not doubt that we will pursue the rest of the year, there is no way to get rid of it.

I’ve never read anything on an iPad, but I imagine many of you have done so. The large number of books available for the tablets is very diverse, and now the universe of securities is further enhanced, thanks to the British Library offers.

With just download an application launched by the British Library, we will be able to read our iPads over 45,000 classics. The application is called Historical 19th Century British Library Access, and was created in conjunction with the software company Bibliolabs. With this application, authors like Mary Shelley, Charles Dickens, Daniel Defoe and many more, as well as travel documents of Victorian poetry and scientific texts can be read and enjoyed from the iPad.

Also, do not think that these digital books are like common because it is not, as they have been designed to give the impression of reading each of the titles as they are in their original format. That is, the design recreates the texture, color and shape of an old book. All it would take would be the smell of paper.

“We launched a trial run in June, and we were completely overwhelmed by the great response we got … was phenomenal,” said Samantha Tillett, prodcut development manager at the British Library.

The collection of classic books for iPad will expand to 60,000 by year-end titles, and not only present nineteenth century books, but also of the eighteenth century, in French, Spanish, Portuguese and Dutch. A great opportunity to read great classics.

In 2007, before seeking to Televisa as a potential buyer, the owners of the Bestel network operator had already met with the Operations area of ??America Movil, but the company that manages Daniel Hajj was not interested in the offer. Do you regret having rejected today? Probably. Since 2010 when Telmex, America Movil absorbed their worst enemy in Mexico’s Televisa that through Bestel, which it acquired in late 2007, will fight government tenders in the slim phone that had spent some 20 years without serious competition.
Technology: haphazardly
Little attention was the presentation of the book Connections development: impact of new information technologies, edited by Alberto Chong, researcher at the Inter-American Development Bank. Perhaps this happened because instead of a rosy vision, used dozens of studies in Latin America (including Mexico) to indicate that a significant portion of investment in technology has been disorderly, without clear objectives and with limited effectiveness metrics. The most dramatic case is the education sector, where public and private sectors have invested heavily in technology, no data were able to show strong improvements in student academic performance.
Slim, the approach to consulting
Perhaps as a measure to diversify its supply (and alleviate some of the bleeding of customers in the fixed telephony market), Telmex unified its offer for the corporate sector within the IT Telmex brand with which to seek solutions and telecommunications consulting information systems design. As a differentiator, Telmex TI assumes a software factory that wants to serve as the local government sector and educational institutions in the country.
