Israel company Tactile World’s new mouse, the Tactile Explorer, is the first major development to enhance computing for the blind in over two decades.

Any company that’s not sold on “the Cloud” yet will be when they hear this: According to Eddie Resnick, CEO of Israeli startup Clouds ‘R Us, 85% of computing power in many companies goes unused – ie, companies are buying seven times the average computing power they need, whether in processor speed, memory, or other expensive hardware. “It’s because companies buy for peak needs,” says Resnick, but although that peak may come just once every few weeks, organizations have, until very recently, had no choice but to be prepared. Thanks to the Cloud, though, companies can now “outsource” their computer usage, [...]  For the first time, IT departments can trace the “dots” that lead to problems in their computer systems or networks, from the first click by a user on a PC, following the results of that click throughout the chain of servers, databases, and applications it goes through until an action takes place.

And even in cases where food is supposedly safe, it may still contain debilitating bacteria that, for all the government’s best intentions, still gets through to wreak havoc among the public. All that could change, though, thanks to a new innovation by Israeli startup MS-Tech, which has developed a new “electronic nose” that can sniff out e.Coli and other bad stuff.  Who says the day of the dot com millionaire is past? Penina First just won a $250,000 prize package in cash and services for coming up with the most innovative web startup idea this year – Day-Job, a service that will allow people who are looking for short-term help to connect with a large workforce of temps who need some quick cash, but don’t want to make long-term job commitments. |
