Kameraflage Images Only Visible Through a Digital Camera

With Kameraflage, now you'll be able to plant subliminal messages on T-shirts, movies and billboards that can only be seen with digital cameras. This context-sensitive display technology, developed by Sarah Logie and Connor Dickie, works by using colors that are invisible to us but easily picked up by the silicon chips in digital cameras.






As you can see, the lovely model above is wearing a shirt that only reveals that cloud's lightning bolt when seen through an iPhone's digital camera, although any ordinary unmodified digital camera would get the same result. She just as easily could have placed her phone number in that cloud. Hmm. Let's think of some other uses for this cool tech.

Increase your Broadband speed ---- Part-II

For those using ADSL modem connected to the computer through USB or to a NIC (Network Interface Card) there is a trick to gain more speed. This trick creates a special buffer which handle the interrupts between the NIC and the ADSL modem more precisely.

Recommended on systems having 256 MB of RAM or higher.

Step#1 ::: Identify IRQ for the NIC/USB modem.

Start ----> Run and type msinfo32.exe which will open the System Information Console. Now go to Hardware Resources ----> IRQs. In the right panel, you will see all the hardware along with their IRQs. Look for your NIC's IRQ.

For those using an USB to connect the ADSL modem, the procedure differs.

Right click on My Computer and select Properties. Select the Hardware tab and click on device manager. At the bottom of the list you got Universal Serial Bus controllers. Click on it to expand and there should be at least one USB root hub. Double click on it and go to power management. There you should find the USB ADSL modem along with its IRQ. If it is not located under this USB root hub just get the properties for another until you find it.

Step # 2 ::: Editing the system.ini file.

Start -----> Run and type sysedit.exe.
In the newly appeared window, select the System.ini window. Here locate [386enh] , place the cursor after it and hit enter. A new blank line will be created.
Now type IrqX=4096.
The X represents the IRQ you obtained before for example Irq23=4096.
Go to file menu and save the new configuration. Restart the computer and you are done.

Increase your Broadband speed ---- Part-I

Hi friends .... not happy with the speed of our broadband connection which your ISP promised to give.Then here are some tricks to get maximum of your bandwidth...Try them....and you will get a lightning speed... if not some change will definitely occur.
The tutorial starts with part-I.
Just follow these easy steps:

1. Click on Start --> Run --> gpedit.msc <Enter>.
2. On the window that will show up, click on Administrative Templates --> Network --> QoS Packet Scheduler
3. On the right side pane, double click Limit reservable bandwidth.Change this configuration from not configured to Enabled and The reduce Bandwidth limit (%) from 20% to zero.
4. Click on Ok and restart your computer.

It seems that Windows XP reserves 20% of the available bandwidth even if this option is not configured and even if you don't use QoS (Quality of Service) feature (which is disabled by default).
Keep in mind that there are several other reasons for your download speed not reaching the labeled speed of your Internet connection.
