1824:       Peter Roget presented his paper ‘The persistence of vision with regard to moving objects’ to the British Royal Society.

1831:     Dr. Joseph Antoine Plateau (a Belgian scientist) and Dr. Simon Rittrer constructed a machine called a phenakitstoscope. This machine produced an illusion of movement by allowing a viewer to gaze at a rotating disk containing small windows; behind the windows was another disk containing a sequence of images. When the disks were rotated at the correct speed, the synchronization of the windows with the images created an animated effect.

October 3rd, 2008Google Chrome

Google is lunching a browser called google chrome . It is free web browser and easly avilabe on net.Google Chrome is devloped by Google. The name is derived from the graphical user interface frame, or “chrome”, of web browsers. A beta version for Microsoft Windows was released on 2 September 2008 in 43 languages.

Chromium is the open source project behind Google Chrome, and is released under the BSD license.It implements the same feature set, but has a slightly different logo Primary design goals were improvements in security, speed, and stability compared to existing browsers. There also were extensive changes in the user interface. Chrome was assembled from 26 different code libraries from Google and others from third parties such as Netscape

About security of Google Chrome we can say.Chrome will typically allocate each tab to fit into its own process to “prevent malware from installing itself” or “using what happens in one tab to affect what happens in another”, however the actual process allocation model is more complex.

Now Google is celibreting his 10th Birthday.Google opened its doors in September 1998. The exact date when we celebrate our birthday has moved around over the years, depending on when people feel like having cake,” says Google’s help center. You can read more about it directly from Google. In the recent years, Google’s birthday has been celebrated on September 27th with a doodle displayed on the homepage. Happy birthday, Google.

On Wednesday, Google announced its 10th birthday celebration endeavor, called Project 10^100 (pronounced “Project 10 to the 100th”). In a statement, the company said it was “asking our users to send us exciting ideas for ways to improve people’s lives,” adding that it has “committed $10 million to turn up to five of the best ideas into reality.”

Google has a culture that encourages engineers to try new things, and they have a culture that pushes those out into the marketplace, even if they don’t have a business model or aren’t fully polished.

But that free-wheeling attitude also has a downside, according to Preston Gralla, contributing editor at Computer World. Take, for example, the recent crash of Google Apps. Gralla says Google has to make its services work reliably if they’re going to challenge Microsoft Office for the business software market.
