Google is digitizing books by
The new service will allow Internet users check e-books from the Internet, the tactic can also be read as an advance for his new 'tablet', which will compete against Kindle and iPad.


Google launched its mid-year online bookstore Google Editions, a spokesman for the company.

So Google will enter the war for the market for electronic books (e-book). In an earlier offensive Amazon.com had already entered the arena with Kindle, which also compete with Barnes & Noble online store for the reader Nook, and Apple, which recently launched its popular iBookstore iPad.

The software giant announced last month that was associated with HTC to develop a new tablet computer that would compete with the iPad, so having your own digital library will help increase sales of the device.

In addition to this new service, called Google Editions, the company has projects that go beyond their own tablet. Unlike its rivals, Google plans to make its digital books can be read on any device.

Amazon.com, for example, requires publishers to convert books to a special format just for the Kindle, so that to read any text on the Amazon library users must necessarily have a reader or an application compatible with its software another device.

Apple has adopted the industry standard digital format, called Epub, but his books are encrypted so that only Apple devices can read or a custom software.

Google Editions, on the other hand, will not download books, but will be available only in the web browser where users can consult. This measure will reduce the costs of copyright, although according to The New Yorker, Google will allow publishers to price their books.

Currently, the Internet search engine offers many public domain books for free through its Google Books service, and plans to offer the works that are in epub format.

The company continues a legal battle that will allow you to distribute millions of books now out of print. Google reached an agreement with authors and publishers, but some groups remain opposed to some provisions of the agreement

How to delete old kernels in Linux

Ubuntu Linux kernel image erase

Good people dipuse me a few days ago to see how clear the kernel not to use on Linux and found this which I found piola share with you.

Every so updates are going to recommend you upgrade kernel. Earlier versions are not removed in case you encounter any problem with the new version. In the grub menu will available versions, and if after a while and we have no problems doing a little disk space could be eliminated.

To remove old kernels we tipeamos console:

dpkg - get-selections | grep linux-image

This command will display the kernles submit that we installed on our machine, in my case I will show:

linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic install
linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic install
linux-image-2.6.27-9-generic install
linux-image-generic install

Then, to eliminate one in particular:

sudo aptitude purge package

Where package is the name of the kernel to delete, such as "linux-image-2.6.27-9-generic"

DO NOT uninstall the linux kernel-image-generic as it is necessary to receive updates of the kernel.

First concept art image of "The Deathly Hallows"

We know how realistic can become conceptual art drawings engaged in shaping the different scenes from the movies. We have seen many of them from previous films, the end result on screen was a faithful reproduction of these drawings.



Now comes through the site portkey a first look at concept art from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It is a mysterious scene, with a long corridor lined with high bushes and a mansion in the background.

DO NOT WAIT TOO, BUT AT LEAST THERE WILL BE A NOVEMBER 18 ADVANCE HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS! INSURANCE LAST FEW SECONDS.



Could this be the Malfoy mansion to the arrival of Snape? Then true to the book description:

The high hedge curved away from them, stretching into the distance beyond the pair of impressive wrought-iron gates that interrupted the path of men. None of them took a step, in silence both raised their left arms in a kind of salute and passed through the dark metal was smoke.
Shrubs deadened the sound of the footsteps of men. There was a rustle somewhere to their right; Yaxley drew his wand again proved to be nothing more than a white peacock, strutting majestically along the top of the hedge.



"Lucius always had it much thought. Peacocks ... "Yaxley thrust his wand back under his cloak with a snort.
A beautiful manor house in the dark came the end of the straight road, with lights flashing in the diamond-shaped windows downstairs. Somewhere in the dark garden beyond the hedge a fountain was running. The gravel crunched beneath their feet as Snape and Yaxley rushed to the front door, which swung inward at their approach, although there was no visible open it.

The description is similar to that found in the image, unless there are apparently only Snape, Yaxley may have omitted to these scenes.
