Special 2500 pageviews!: Top 10 trolls in internet

CONGRATULATIONS! In only 10 days we have gaigned 2500 pageviews, first of all thank to all the people who motivate us to give you the news, humor about gaming and technology all days. We'll divide this article in 5 sections, and in this 19/2-24/2 we'll publish 2 trolls per day.

10. Willy on whells

Willy on Wheels is probably the most famous "editors" of Wikipedia after Jimbo Wales himself. Willy on Wheels was hanging out in one of his favorite script kiddies/troll hangouts on an IRC channel. Now someone on that IRC channel just picked up a bunch of pages from Wikipedia - the English language encyclopedia that ANYONE can edit - and mass moved it. This gave Willy on Wheels and his buddies an idea, and they mass moved pages on Wikipedia, putting strange re-directs, and cross-linking to irrelevant pages. They also began adding "on Wheels" as a mainstay to every article they came across. So entries on Wikipedia read like "Braille Music on Wheels", "Paul Robert Bing on Wheels" and so on. As the moving and redirects were visible only to SysOps on Wikipedia, the "on Wheels" bit was something that everyone could see. Willy on Wheels and his friends wrote a script in PERL, the same language used by the mediawiki engine, to mass move and rename many pages at once, as well as add the "on Wheels" tag. Sorting through the mess took a long time. Unfortunately by then, hoards of impersonators had jumped in, and had started to vandalize Wikipedia along the same lines.

One fine day, readers who logged on to Wikipedia saw the logo replaced by this:
The entire enterprise was put on wheels! IP ranges were banned, but Willy and his wily friends kept using proxies, and continued at their work, defacing the front page many times. On April 1 2005, Wikipedia users nominated Willy on Wheels for adminship. However, soon after that, the Troll developed a conscience, and regretted what he had done. In a hearfelt letter, he explained his actions, and apologized for all the trouble he had caused. Willy on Wheels is a legitimate contributor to Uncyclopedia.
9. Jai Maharaj
Jai Maharaj is one of those people who go around Internet groups imparting knowledge and wisdom. Jai Maharaj is someone who has taken his own interpretation of Hinduism to heart, and intent on propagating the tenets to everyone on the internet. Every Usenet group that ever existed has witnessed some sort of Jai Maharaj-related activity, but he haunted the groups relating to culture, astrology and vegetarianism the most. Jai Maharaj had a large repository of vegetarianism, the Hindu caste system, and astrology related articles, and copy pasted sections of them repeatedly, contriving them to fit any discussion that was going on. All the effort was mostly an early variant of spamming, to advertise for an online astrology related store by the name of mantra.com. Jai Maharaj is often cited as the number 1 reason why people stopped using the discussion boards on Usenet.

LG G2 mini













We expected and has not been hard to get, is here the LG G2 mini. Following the presentation of products before Mobile World Congress of the Korean company, we find another of its star, which is quite difficult to be the best of the "mini" after presenting the fantastic Sony Xperia Z1 Compact. 
The product has not been presented completely shared by the main specifications, but we miss images and materials allowing us to better understand their appearance. For now we can say that I is smaller than the LG G2, but also much lower in phone specifications.

Google glass: is it the future?



Google Glass is the name for a type of wearable computer created by the Google's Project Glass. These futuristic glasses provide augmented reality for users by visually connecting them to an Android-run heads up display that offers many of the features of an Android spmartphone and connects users to many of Google's key cloud features, such as maps, calendar, Gmail, Google+ and Google Places.

In April 2012, Project Glass launched a Google+ page and revealed that Google researchers were testing the technology and hoped to have it on the market in the near future. Google expects the technology to cost about as a much as a smartphone.

Google Glass provide an experience known as augmented reality, where images are superimposed over what the user sees in real life. With Google Glass, these images are generally icons that provide directions, alert users to messages from contacts or give weather updates.

Although this technology's potential has been praised as a futuristic way to deliver hands-free computing, critics have pointed out its ability to distract walkers or drivers and questioned its utility for those who already wear corrective eyeglasses.

Google glasses are sometimes called Google goggles, although is is inaccurate because Google Goggles is actually a separate Google project that uses images - rather than text or voice commands - to conduct a search.

Prosthesis that allow feelings

An Italian scientists have created an artificial hand that allows to an amputated person tell apart the difference between a mandarin, a ball and a bottle.

The Danish Aabo Sorensen lost his left hand in an accident ten years ago, and he volunteered for this experiment.

“It was amazing to feel something after ten years, suddenly, my hand sent a message to my brain. It was incredible."-he said.

When the scientists connected the electrodes to an electric sign, Sorensen ensured he had the same feeling that when his fingers could move.

This is not the first time that a prosthesis can send messages to the brain. This kind of experiment already had success at U.S.A an Europe. But, how can they do it?
