The strongest links of communication when children go missing are now electronic billboard messages, Facebook announcements and other digital media. Details about a missing child can be transmitted nearly instantly through social media, e-mail, text messages and other electronic means. Time is the enemy in the case of abductions or missing children, and investigators must move quickly to stop a missing child from being taken further away, killed or hurt.

Social networking sites like Facebook have also helped parents protect their children from abductions. In addition to safety information, organizations can post AMBER Alerts and details on recent kidnappings.

Over 3,000 electronic billboards around the United States post messages regarding missing children when a local AMBER Alert is created.

This fast spread of information also may inspire abductors to free a captive child. The technologies increase the risk of apprehension, making it more likely that the child will be set free.

Pebble is a tech company that got online funding through the for-profit website Kickstarter to develop its smart watch, a sleek watch face that syncs with your smartphone.

Ever in a situation where you feel your phone vibrate and you want to check it, but you can’t? The Pebble watch alerts you to new messages, texts, emails etc. , which you can read right there on the watch face.

Just like you can personalize your Internet service, like HughesNet from satellitestarinternet.com, you can personalize the the vibration alert, the actual display of the watch face and much more.

The watch runs on a rechargeable battery, and also features technology similar to the Kindle, which reduces glare on the screen.

Because the watch is synced with your smartphone, your music is accessible on your wrist. The watch, which comes in an array of colors including Cherry Red and Arctic White, has buttons to adjust the volume, as well as a “select” button, all on the ride-hand side of the face.

Athletes will also appreciate the watch, which can be used with downloaded apps to track stats while out cycling the roadways or running in your neighborhood.

Pebble is planning to release the first wave of watches January 23rd.

Housing over a 32,000 artworks, the Google Art Project allows you to tour through the virtual galleries using the “walk-through” feature. Using the same controls as Googles Street View or clicking on the floor panels, you can navigate through hundreds of virtual gallery rooms. Never heard of this before? Get up to speed here.

Each artwork is displayed with physical, as well as, contextual information. Written by the original museums, the level of the information will vary for each painting and museum. Things like the history of a painting or just the diameters can be viewed when using the microscopic view feature.
You can also create your own collection. Google allows you to compile your favorite paintings and create your very own gallery. Upload your own video or audio to personalize your gallery even further. You can then share your gallery through social media.

The Google Art Project makes seeing the worlds art so much easier. It is definitely something everyone should see for themselves.

Beyond a simple online art experience, this project seeks to fully replicate the experience that museum goers get when they physically visit a museum. Online viewers will be able to access every public part of their chosen museum online. The experience is intended to match that of an in-person museum visit.

Additionally, the Google project allows for extensive information about artwork to be accessed at the moment of viewing. This access to enhanced information supplements the virtual museum project in a way that isn’t possible through a traditional museum visit. The additional information allows museum patrons to receive an unprecedented level of access to works of art.

Another benefit of the Google museum project is that it can be accessed from any computer. This access is perfectly suited for mobile computing devices. Museum visitors can access the Google project, and all its information, online while they visit the museum. This access provides seamless access to art information for all museum patrons.

When an Internet user had the DNS Changer Trojan infect their machine, the ability to update any type of anti-virus or anti-spyware program was compromised. This left users vulnerable to any attacks from malicious software. When the FBI shut down this criminal ring they set up temporary servers to give a machine that was infected the ability to access the Internet. However, infected machines will not access the Internet until the system is cleaned.

Internet users that are concerned about their status can easily check their system. A website is available that users can access to check the status of their Internet connection. This site is at www.dns-ok.us and can be accessed from any web browser. Tools are also provided if you need to have this infection taken off of your machine.
