Product Description
Diplomarbeit, die am 10.05.2004 erfolgreich an einer Berufsakademie in Deutschland im Fachbereich Wirtschaft eingereicht wurde. Einleitung: Das Internet vermochte in jüngster Vergangenheit wie kein anderes Medium zuvor die Kommunikations- und Informationsstrukturen zu revolutionieren. Basierend auf dem rasanten, technologischen Fortschritt entwickelte sich das Internet zu einem unverzichtbaren Bestandteil der modernen Informationsgesellschaft.Die fortwährenden, technologischen Neuerungen führten zu maßgeblichen Veränderungen im Erscheinungsbild des World Wide Webs. Präsentierte es sich vor einigen Jahren rein textbasiert und statisch, so stellt es heute ein Sammelsurium unterschiedlicher, multimedialer Inhalte mit einem wesentlich höheren Maß an Dynamik und Lebendigkeit dar. Diese immense Vielfalt an Formaten und Werkzeugen machen die Erstellung und Wiederverwendung der elektronischen Grafiken aufwendig und teuer.Bisher mangelte es daher im Web an einem offenen, standardisierten Vektorgrafikformat, das dieses Problem lösen könnte. Aus diesem Grunde verabschiedete das World Wide Web Consortium im Jahre 2001 einen XML- basierten Standard namens Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).Laut einigen Ideologen, handelt es sich bei diesem vektorbasierten, zweidimensionalen Grafikformatstandard um The Next Big Thing. Dabei stellt sich die Frage: Entwickelt sich SVG in Zukunft zum Killer von Macromedia Flash oder zur Totgeburt? Gemäß dem Motto Ein Bild sagt mehr als 1000 Worte eröffnen SVG- Dokumente aufgrund ihrer vielfältigen Funktionen und Leistungen vollkommen neuartige Möglichkeiten.Ziel der vorliegenden Diplomarbeit ist es, einen Gesamtüberblick über die SVG- Technologie aufzuzeigen. Die Darstellung erfüllt die Aufgabe, im Rahmen der permanenten Überarbeitung der IT- Architektur der DEKRA AG, eine Antwort auf die Frage zu finden, inwieweit die SVG- Technologie geeignet ist, die steigenden Anforderungen hinsichtlich an ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Author's Note
This is not a book to read - it is LIVE NEWS on your Kindle over WiFi or 3G
Maybe you haven't tried using your Kindle for anything besides reading downloaded content, because it isn't very quick or easy.

Well, now it is, so why not try it out:
Here's a very compact, yet complete way to use Kindle browser to follow the progress toward those important Nov.2, 2010 Midterm House/Senate elections--pages of carefully selected, pre-set, and pre-tested active hyperlinks that with one click get you to:

-Election news, late-breaking headlines - whether you like CNN or FOX. Not just bookmarks to the main sites, clicking any menu-ed link opens your Kindle browser automatically, then goes right to the election and campaign coverage. You don't have to type anything at all. (Once already inside any news site you can pick or search for other news as well).

- Christine O'Donnell Sarah Palin, Nancy Pelosi, or even both the Clintons- follow their news as activities and events unfold. These links work the same way, to jump directly to a Google news search on that person, or into several sites that follow the campaign and candidate.

- Current Candidate events, polls, and news;
- Issue positions
- State contests and polls for any state
- Major analysts - From Daily KOS to Arianna Huffington to Anderson Cooper to Bill O'Reilly. See what they're each saying lately

Plus I included:
- General help and how-to for using your Kindle browser to do many other things. Succinct tips for Kindle 3 browser, or the Kindle 2 and DX.
- Direct links to contact Amazon support, to return a purchase, or to have them call you.

Hope you find it handy;

Product Description
Marc Andreessen and the Development of the Web Browser is part of the series, Unlocking the Secrets of Science. This series profiles the achievers of the 20th century in the fields of science, medicine, and technology. Written especially for young adult readers, the series helps place each significant invention, discovery, or development in historical perspective while exploring the life of the person responsible for each breakthrough. No science fiction story even approximates the mystery and suspense contained in these true science biographies.

Marc Andreessen grew up in the 1970s and 1980s when computers were just coming into their own. It was not long before Marc found himself drawn to computer technology. He spent hour after hour at the library reading everything he could about computers. But it would take a British researcher named Tim Berners Lee, who invented the World Wide Web, to cause Andreessen to have a dream of his own.

Originally, the World Wide Web displayed only text. Marc wanted to find a way to make the web more user-friendly. He wanted a program that would make "surfing" the web really fun. Working at the University of Illinois, Marc, along with his friend, Eric Bina, invented "Mosaic", which was the first enhanced web browser. You'll be intrigued with the rest of the story about how this invention led to his partnership with Jim Clark and the development of Netscape. ... Read more

There are so many plug-ins and ActiveX controls available thatit's hard to keep track of them all--or to know which ones really makeyour Web browsers more useful. Cheryl Kirk comes to the rescue withthis comprehensive guide.

Taking a chatty and nontechnicalapproach, Kirk describes what plug-ins do and discusses how averageusers can employ them to make Web browsing more fun, and how Web-siteowners can use them to make life easier and more productive forthemselves, their visitors, and their customers. She also covers theuse of plug-ins on corporate intranets as well as on theInternet. Her case studies of how various people are using plug-intechnology are eye-opening idea generators. Kirk clears up theconfusion over the difference between Netscape-style plug-ins andMicrosoft Internet Explorer ActiveX controls and then offersinsightful reviews of the leading software in both formats.

Kirkincludes a valuable chapter on plug-ins for alternate browsers, suchas the old browser technology many still use on America Online andCompuServe. The enclosed CD-ROM contains her top recommended plug-insfor both Netscape and Microsoft Internet Explorer as well as links tosites featuring more options. -- Elizabeth Lewis ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent book, even better price
Per the last comment, of course this book is outdated...it was written back in 1998! But what a find for [this price] on Amazon! Especially if you do have older systems, like I do.

I have two older computers and my father has one too that had older browsers. We were having a hard time finding anyone who would provide us with help on them and many of the new verions of software just don't work right with old browsers.

The real world examples I loved and although most of the links are now outdated, I had no trouble finding most of the software I needed. More suprising, I had problems with one product and thought I'd email the author, not thinking she would write back! Not only did she answer all my questions, but gave me some great tips on a windows problem I was having.

Excellent book and fantastic author. Wish I could give it more stars.

5-0 out of 5 stars Answered so many questions
Using a browser isn't difficult. But when things don't work, or you don't have any idea what a plug-in is or how to use it, this book answers all your questions.

I enjoyed the breezy, chatty style of writing. It made me feel like the author was right there answering all of my questions.

One of the best sections is where they talk about how different people are using different plug-ins to solve problems. Excellent.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book. Reviewers should read the book before commenting
This is an excellent book. The person who left one star obviously didn't read the book. If they had, they would have commented how detailed the book is, with information you can easily find anywhere else.

Seems as if the last reviewer wanted to personally attack the author, not the book. Read the free chapter yourself to see how well written and complete this book is.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book. Ignore the previous review
This is by far the best book on plug-ins I've read. Offers the most comprehensive look at the various browsers than any other book. It may be somewhat outdated at this point, but it's still relevant if you have a browser 5.0 or below.

My title above relates to the woman (kellytools) who wrote the review. She had a vendetta against the author and took it out on her in this review, without having read the book, nor knowing anything about the author. You might want to check out the Seller Resources Soapbox if you're curious.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great book for beginner and sales refinement
This book is great for beginner sales people to learn a more effect means of selling, Listening was highly correlated with sales success and this book focuses on this key skill in their sales process. Remember there are many different sales process (different than techniques) and this book presents a listening based sales process, which I find works well for small to large retail sales. I recommended this to several of my student entering the sales field.

Product Description
Reflects on the changes the Internet has stimulated for art curation and examines the work of the curator in relation to a wider socio-political context. Articulated through two key issues, immateriality and network systems, this book considers how the practice of curating has been transformed by distributed networks beyond the rhetoric of free software and open systems. Because the site of curatorial production has been expanded to include the space of the Internet, the focus of curatorial attention has been extended from the object to processes to dynamic network systems, multiple agents and software. This upgraded "operating system? of art presents new possibilities of online curating that is collective and distributed "even a self-organizing system that curates itself. The curator is part of this entire system but not central to it. The third book in the DATA Browser series of critical texts that explore issues at the intersection of culture and technology. ...

Product Description

From Geronimo! to gesundheit to haminahamina to holy mackerel, and from abracadabra to zoinks, Mark Dunn and Sergio Aragonés show you interjections like you've never seen them before.

Often thought of as unnecessary verbal fringe or simply linguistic decoration, interjections (ahem, howdy, mamma mia, pshaw, tally-ho, whoop-de-do) may well be the most overlooked part of speech in the English language. ZOUNDS! A Browser's Dictionary of Interjections focuses the spotlight on this most deserving (and sometimes most demented) grammatical group. A light-hearted look at more than 500 interjections, ZOUNDS! explores the origins of these essential words and highlights the contributions of these previously unheralded parts of speech.

Perfect for both word lovers and the casual reader, ZOUNDS! brings together the linguistic talents of Mark Dunn, author of the award-winning novel Ella Minnow Pea, and the graphic hilarity of Sergio Aragonés, the legendary cartoonist and contributor to Mad Magazine, for a delightful romp through grammar, culture, and the English language.

Famous interjections include:

"Eureka!"
-Archimedes

"Badabing-badaboom"
-Tony Soprano

"Stuff and nonsense!"
-Alice, Alice in Wonderland

"Bah! Humbug!"
-Scrooge

"Fiddle-dee-dee !"
-Scarlett O'Hara

"Leapin' lizards!"
-Little Orphan Annie

"Nanoo, nanoo"
-Mork, from "Mork & Mindy"

"Dyn-O-Mite!"
-Jimmie Walker, "Good Times"

"Bully!"
-President Theodore Roosevelt

2-0 out of 5 stars Very American
This book was a bit disappointing to me. I was looking for something with British and American phrases, and this is pretty strongly focused on the American. And some of those are good and interesting stories, but not as consistently odd and amusing as Britishisms.
Others looking for just American phraseology will enjoy this, however.

4-0 out of 5 stars By cock and bull!
Pfft! Gut Shabbes! Fiddle-dee-dee! Bully! Toy toy! Ooh la la!

Let's face it, language would be a lot more boring without interjections, those odd little flourishes to emphasize whatever we're saying ("Drat! I dropped the cake!"). In "ZOUNDS!: A Browser's Dictionary of Interjections," Mark Dunn dissects the various interjections we say, and what they mean.

From "aayyy" to "zzzzp!", Dunn explores various interjections from the past and present, and they're a surprisingly colourful bunch -- there's the obvious little ones like "ah," "oh," "eh," and "aaaarrruuugah," which are mainly convenient noises.

But he also exxplores obscure little words ("beero!"), and ones that were used long ago or have fallen into disuse ("beauseant!"). Not to mention ones from other cultures ("Gut shabbes!"), or from movies ("Keeks!" "Nee!"). A disproportionate number seem to euphemisms for God ("Gosh all hemlock!"), or some rather impolite words ("Fudge!").

But he doesn't just tell us about these words, or what they mean. For example, it turns out that "ods bodkins" is actually a corruption of "God's bodkins" -- loosely translated, "God's little body," which was considered a very wicked phrase in Elizabethan times. Or that "slogan" is derived from an ancient Gaelic call to arms. Betcha didn't know any of that.

Moreover, Dunn explains them in an easy, chatty manner, as if he were a pal imparting various linguistic trivia. And he peppers the whole book with pop culture and literary references, as well as little "skits" to emphasize what they mean ("Dear girl, you have just destroyed all my cultures of the antibacterial Penicillium notatum!" "Oops!").

Even better, some of these interjections are so rare that they can serve two purposes: first, to serve as party trivia, such as "Did you know that the word 'begorra' may be connected to vivisection?". Second, some of them would make wonderful insults that no one can reply to.

"ZOUNDS!: A Browser's Dictionary of Interjections" is not only vastly entertaining, but tells us a lot about a part of language that nobody really thinks about. Imbars bidbib!

1-0 out of 5 stars No Zounds.
This book was not funny at all. The definitions were filed with pop culture babble. Seemed like a nice idea, but, not funny.

4-0 out of 5 stars An Excellent Gift
I purchased this for a friend who is a bookworm, especially funny books. This was a perfect fit. She finds it very amusing. It explains the use and origin of unique words. Good for the nerdey reader in your family.

4-0 out of 5 stars Gosh All Hemlock--You'll Get A Kick Out Of This Book
Mark Dunn compiles a great deal of interesting tidbits, trivia, and some clever stories on his work ZOUNDS! A BROWSER'S DICTIONARY OF INTERJECTIONS. It gives the historical background to such expression as "horse feathers" "hot diggety dog" and one of my grandmother's favorite "ye gods and little fishes" just to name a sampling Overall the book contains historical tales about older interjections but also includes modern expressions such as Fred Flintstone's "Yabba Dabba Doo" and Seinfeld's "yadda-yadda-yadda."

My assumption is that this book will appeal to two groups of people: trivia buffs and writers. My guess is that by reading this book, which can be enjoyable and addictive, the trivia buff reader will be able to impress a rival or two at Trivial Pursuit. The second group of people that may purchase this book would be writers hoping to find a clever phrase or expression for a character. This may not be the best idea. Anyone who has ever participated in a writing workshop knows that someone comes up with a catch phrase for a character and the others in the group cannot wait to pounce on it, but it may not be the worst tool for writers. Since Dunn gives a history of the interjections in the book, it may help a writer avoid copyrighted material. Teachers may also find the book helpful. It could be read in an English class from time to time as a way of showing how language evolves.

Regardless of whether it sits on a reference shelf or if it's purchased for pleasure, the book is interesting and amusing and without a doubt it will teach the reader something new.

Product Description
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A web feed (or news feed) is a data format used for providing users with frequently updated content. Content distributors syndicate a web feed, thereby allowing users to subscribe to it. Making a collection of web feeds accessible in one spot is known as aggregation, which is performed by an aggregator. A web feed is also sometimes referred to as a syndicated feed.A typical scenario of web feed use is: a content provider publishes a feed link on their site which end users can register with an aggregator program (also called a feed reader or a news reader) running on their own machines; doing this is usually as simple as dragging the link from the web browser to the aggregator. When instructed, the aggregator asks all the servers in its feed list if they have new content; if so, the aggregator either makes a note of the new content or downloads it. Aggregators can be scheduled to check for new content periodically. Web feeds are an example of pull technology, although they may appear to push content to the user. ... Read more

Excerpt:(May 5, 2010)) Opera Mini is a web browser designed primarily for mobile phones, mainly in cheaper feature phones, but also for smartphones and personal digital assistants. It uses the Java ME platform and consequently requires that the mobile device be capable of running Java ME applications. Opera Mini is offered free of charge, supported through a partnership between its developer, the Opera Software company, and the search engine company Google. Opera Mini was derived from the Opera web browser for personal computers, which has been publicly available since 1996. Opera Mini began as a pilot project in 2005. After limited releases in Europe, it was officially launched worldwide on January 24, 2006. Opera Mini requests web pages through the Opera Software company's servers, which process and compress them before relaying the pages back to the mobile phone. This compression process makes transfer time about two to three times faster, and the pre-processing smooths compatibility with web pages not designed for mobile phones. Total data consumed by Opera Mini users worldwide from 2006 to mid-2008 in TBOpera Mini was derived from the Opera web browser for personal computers, which has been publicly available since 1996. Opera Mini was originally designed for mobile phones that would ordinarily be incapable of running a web browser. It was first introduced on August 1...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=3069269 ...
