Your article are property of Google if published by using Google Chrome

Yes it is true.If you published any article on internet either on your blog or any where else using Google's new web browser Google Chrome, then your article is also the property of Google according to Chromes EULA i.e. end-user license agreements.It states that posting anything via Google Chrome gives Google the right to your content.Here is the Google's word.
11. Content license from you
11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. By submitting, posting or displaying the content you give Google a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling Google to display, distribute and promote the Services and may be revoked for certain Services as defined in the Additional Terms of those Services.
11.2 You agree that this license includes a right for Google to make such Content available to other companies, organizations or individuals with whom Google has relationships for the provision of syndicated services, and to use such Content in connection with the provision of those services.
11.3 You understand that Google, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users, may (a) transmit or distribute your Content over various public networks and in various media; and (b) make such changes to your Content as are necessary to conform and adapt that Content to the technical requirements of connecting networks, devices, services or media. You agree that this license shall permit Google to take these actions.
11.4 You confirm and warrant to Google that you have all the rights, power and authority necessary to grant the above license.

It does not seems appropriate and it also gives a chance to speak to all the person who blames Google for collecting private information via its each method possible like search, mail,blog, adsense,adwords,analytics almost each service of Google is blamed for this kind of activity and now this.This condition won't last long as people will definitely raise their voice against this so till then avoid Google chrome for publishing content on web.


UPDATE:Google has fliped back on this sensitive issue.Now they say
11. Content license from you

11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services.


So this is a good news but this leaves a patch on Google's intentions

Yet another google service closed,this time Web accelerator




Over the past few years we have seen many Google services that has been either closed or they are not further supported by Google like Google answer and lot more.Some of them were Google lab products and was in there beta while they were shut down.This time it is Google Web Accelerator.

Last year, Google removed the download link from Google Web Accelerator's homepage which indicated that the product is no longer supported. Web Accelerator was a Labs experiment launched in 2005 that intended to speed up web browsing by prefetching content and downloading cached web pages from Google's servers.Though it was criticized by many users who don't have unlimited bandwidth connections since it fetches the webpage in advance although user might not be interested in that webpage hence increases their bandwidth uses.

Google Web Accelerator uses various strategies to make your web pages load faster, including:

* Sending your page requests through Google machines dedicated to handling Google Web Accelerator traffic.
* Storing copies of frequently looked at pages to make them quickly accessible.
* Downloading only the updates if a web page has changed slightly since you last viewed it.
* Prefetching certain pages onto your computer in advance.
* Managing your Internet connection to reduce delays.
* Compressing data before sending it to your computer.

Web Accelerator became famous for a security problem: the software transferred unencrypted cookies to Google servers, which were cached and then sent to other Web Accelerator users. Even though the issue was fixed in the next releases, Google Web Accelerator was quickly forgotten and few people noticed that it didn't work well in Firefox 3 and it blocked YouTube videos.

Recover data from damaged or incorrectly burned CD and DVD discs

Recover Disc is a software program that helps you to extract data from damaged or incorrectly burned CD and DVD discs particularly at that stage where regular software can't read them fully or partially. Sometimes it is very important for you to recover data from such kind of disc.

This tool extracts the intact portion of your data and tries to recover problem areas.You can either choose to recover selected files, or save an image of the whole disc.

The program works under Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista and supports all types of CD and DVD media with ISO or UDF file systems,including discs burned by video cameras and recorders.

* Recovers data from scratched and damaged CD/DVD
* Recovers data from incorrectly burned CD/DVD
* Supports discs burned with DVD video cameras and DVD recorders
* Retrieves data from all sessions on multi session discs
* Supports ISO and UDF file systems
* Can merge partial data recovered in different environments

How to recover data using recover disc

1.First of all insert a CD/DVD Disc and analyze It
This program starts reading the content of inserted CD/DVD disc immediately after you run the program. It might take some time to read and analyze disc content. Then the program displays folder tree in the left pane of the window. You can browse the content of any folder right like you do in the Windows Explorer.

2.Then find desired files on the disc

You can browse the content of your CD/DVD right like you do in the Windows Explorer. When you select a folder in the left pane, you see its content in the right pane. Now you can select files and folders that you want to recover and get to the next step.

If you do not see required files on the disc, it may be that they were recorded in previous sessions and were not included in the table of contents of the last session on the disc. Sometimes this happens on multisession discs either intentionally or by mistake.Recover Disc allows viewing such files in a special Expert View mode. This mode shows the full disc structure with all recorded sessions and tracks. Click the "Expert View Expert button on the toolbar to switch to the Expert View mode.

3.Finally extract your desired files from the damaged disc

After you select files and folders that you want to recover, click the "Extract" button on the toolbar. The "Extract" dialog will be displayed.'Restore folder structure' If you check this option, the full branch of the folders tree containing selected files and folders will be recovered to the output folder.

If some disc appears to be partially unreadable with Recover Disc on your computer
, you can try to extract all available data from the disc and then read that disc on another system or with different CD/DVD reading device. The program allows reading a part of a file on one device and a part of the same file on another device. When you extract a file from a disc and some problem areas cannot be properly read, the corresponding places in the extracted file are left blank (filled with zeroes). When you later try to extract the same file, the program reads only the blocks that were not extracted before and merges them with the previously extracted data.

The following options let you specify what to do when the program finds file with the same name in the output folder.

* Merge: The program will merge the file being extracted with the existing one. Use this option to merge the newly extracted content with the previously saved data.
* Overwrite: The program will overwrite the existing file with a newly extracted one.
* Skip: The program will skip such files.
* Ask: Each time the program finds a file that already exists in the output folder, it will ask you what to do.


Select either "Overwrite", "Merge" or "Skip".You can check the "Apply to all" option if you want to apply the chosen action to other files as well. Then the program will perform the specified action automatically without asking you each time.After you specify all options in the "Extract" dialog, click "OK" to start the extraction process and you are done with it.It is very simple and easy to use for general users too.

Microsoft closes windows 7 beta public downloads





In last many years after windows xp Microsoft has not seen much success in operating system segment but this time it looks that windows 7 is going to do the trick for them. In December last year they put beta of windows 7 for public download with a limit of 2.5 million users for the public beta, but later offered unlimited downloads due to popular demand, only to then see its servers wilt under the pressure.

And now the software giant put out a reminder late on Monday that those who wanted to play around with the beta, AKA build 7000, of its upcoming operating system had nearly run out of time to, at least officially, grab the download via Microsoft’s website. However, those who began downloading the beta but haven’t yet completed the process were granted a little extension – they have until 9am PST on 12 February to finish the download.

Though internet users can still download windows 7 beta from torrents like piratebay.
