Dear Friends, With reference to Dr. Amit K Chatterjee reply to bhagyashree sane's message 'Information Dissemination Industry' Dr. Amit sir, really your words are timely, very much relevant to today's scenario. Our professionals should go beyond traditional librarianship. Especially Academic and Public libraries should adapt corporate style of working to some extent. Then only we can disseminate timely information. I request youngsters to read Dr. Amit's write-up and start learning Internet and other information resources, sharpen your analytical and presentation skill, improve communication style and deliver right information.

No End in Sight to Google Books Saga

Dear Friends, No End in Sight to Google Books Saga<http://www.technewsworld.com/story/68064.html> Google is taking a lot of heat over its plan to digitize millions of books and make them available online. The search giant reached an agreement with two groups representing a large number of publishers and authors last year, but the court overseeing the case has not yet given its blessing. In the meantime, there's been a flurry of legal activity from other parties that object to the deal.

Asus' E-Reader Mystery: Low-Cost, Dual Screen Device
by DINESH SIDDAIAH 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

Dear Friends, Asus' E-Reader Mystery: Low-Cost, Dual Screen Device Asus is reportedly working on its own entry into the e-book reader market: a dual-screened reader that will open like an actual book. Asus reportedly intends to target the price of $165, significantly undercutting the kings of the market, Amazon and Sony. The Sunday *Times of London* quotes a UK Asus executive as saying the company, manufacturer of what could arguably be called the first netbook computer, would introduce a device before the end of the year that skirts the line between netbook and book reader. Dual screens that open like and actual book would give the user a more "normal" page-turning experience, but one of the screens could also be used as a Web browser or virtual keyboard. A built-in camera and microphone opens up a world of cheap Skype,<http://www.technewsworld.com/perl/search.pl?query=Skype&scope=network>Internet phone calls, and color screens means the ability to peruse graphics-rich pages like one would find in newspapers like *USA Today* -- as well as in school textbooks.

Gmail New Service - Gmail offers Google goggles to avoid late night drunken emails
by Ramakant Navghare 10 Sep '09

10 Sep '09

To, Dear All, *Gmail offers Google goggles to avoid late night drunken emails.* ** Users of Gmail, Google's email system, can now activate a new feature called Mail Goggles. It requires an emailer to solve a few easy maths problems quickly before hitting the "send" button. The service is set by default to come into force only on weekend nights, although the settings can be changed. Google's theory is that if your mental faculties are sufficiently intact to answer the questions, you will have been composed enough to be aware of the consequences of whatever you have just typed. ** *To activate Goggles, Gmail users should click the "Settings" link at the top of a Gmail page, then go to the "Labs" section.* Thank You, Regards, Ramakant Amar Navghare Administrator, Knowledge Management KPMG KPMG House II Kamala Mills Compound SB Marg Lower Parel (West) Mumbai 400 013 Tel +91 (22) 39896000 Fax +91 (22) 39895554 email : ramakant.navghare(a)gmail.com Mob.
