Google Changes Image Search Display

Google ImageI just noticed it today when I was looking for an image to publish on Med Care Tips.

Google has changed the image result interface.

I like it.

Instead of thumbnail along with URL display, present interface simply has thumbnails which enlarge when you hover your mouse over the thumbnail and display more information.

Moreover, there is no need to click the next page link as  pages would automatically load when you scroll down.

It also provides more choices to refine your results.

Vodafone VF 247 Solar Phone To Be Launched Soon

Vodafone Essar has announced the launch of its first solar powered phone VF 247 in India. The handset would be made available by next month and expected price is Rs 1500.

The phone is aimed at the rural market that prefers low-end handsets. Another factor taken into consideration are power cuts which are frequent in rural India.

When the phone is exposed to sunlight, it charges itself. The set can also be charged in a room under normal daylight with special support of hardware and software.

The phone would have features like FM radio, colour screen and a powerful torch light.

It offers eight days of standby time and four hours of talk time.

Currently, Vodafone has 65 % of rural network coverage which is second highest in India.
