  • Firefox Android Reader Mode
    Firefox android reader mode Continue Image: Firefox Development Firefox Preview, Firefox's restored Android app, is moving smoothly together, and this week one of its best features received a substantial update. Mozilla added browser extension support to Firefox Preview back in February, but you can only install one addition: uBlock Origin. Mozilla's latest test builds for Firefox Preview have added five more add- ons to the mobile browser that can be installed from the app settings, and they're all stunning: Screenshot: Brendan HesseDark Reader - automatically includes a dark mode for (most) websites, even if the page usually doesn't have one. HTTPS Everywhere - Adds HTTPS encryption to websites whenever possible. NoScript - Warns you about potentially dangerous web-page scripts and lets you decide whether they will be running or not. Privacy Badger - Blocks internet trackers hidden on the sites you visit. Image Search - Allows you to select and reverse search for images of any images you find while viewing. These new add-ons are available in the latest version of the developer's Firefox Preview. You can try them early by downloading Nightly Build from Google Play. While Night builds are designed for developers and often suffer from stability issues, downloading it so won't re-write any other version of Firefox Preview you've installed. If something doesn't work, you can just delete the browser and swap back for the more stable version of Firefox Preview you used before. New additions should be available in other versions of the app soon anyway. How to install add-onsInstall Firefox Preview Night Assembly from Google Play Store.

Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2017 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the relationship between the print novel and new media. It argues that this relationship is productive; that is, it locates the novel and new media within a tense, but symbiotic relationship. This requires an understanding of media relations that is ecological, rather than competitive. More precise, this dissertation investigates ways that the novel incorporates new media. The word “incorporate” refers both to embodiment and physical union.

  • Comparison Between Touch Gesture and Pupil Reaction to Find Occurrences of Interested Item in Mobile Web Browsing
    International Journal of Latest Research in Engineering and Technology (IJLRET) ISSN: 2454-5031 www.ijlret.comǁ Volume 2 Issue 1ǁ January 2016 ǁ PP 37-46 Comparison between Touch Gesture and Pupil Reaction to Find Occurrences of Interested Item in Mobile Web Browsing Shohe Ito1, Yusuke Kajiwara2, Fumiko Harada3, Hiromitsu Shimakawa4 1,2,4(Ritsumeikan University Graduate School of Information Science and Engineering, Japan) 3(Connect Dot Ltd., Japan) ABSTRACT :Web pages are full of interesting items people have never got familiar with. Mobile users often encounter new items interesting them, when they are Web browsing with their smartphones and tablet PCs. They usually find the new interesting items from pinpoint information such as one piece of phrase. To identify interests of web users, many existing methods utilize logs of Web pages the users visited. They cannot identify items the users get interested for the first time. This paper proposes two methods to estimate new pinpoint items interesting the users. One is the method with touch operations to estimate interested items. The other is the method with pupil reactions to estimate them. A part of a web page a user looks at is regarded as their interested items when touch operations or pupil reactions make a response relating on their interests. The methods can deal with users’ interests, because touch operations and pupil reactions show their current interests. Users are able to enjoy the services provided according to their estimated pinpoint and current interests after the estimation of the interested items. When the proposed method with touch gestures estimates interested items, we calculated the precision, the recall and the F-measure for every subject.

  • Locating New Literary Practices in Indian Digital Spaces Shanmugapriya T Nirmala Menon
    Locating New Literary Practices in Indian Digital Spaces Shanmugapriya T Nirmala Menon INDIAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY INDORE ABSTRACT In this essay, we locate and explore new literary practices and expressions in Indian digital spaces such as SMS novel and social media narratives: poetry, flash fiction, twitterfiction which are not considered as electronic literature in India. The integration of technology and creativity is not a novel phenomenon in Indian literature where one can find the narrative tradition of ancient Indian literature which includes poetical words, paintings, and music, for instance, Pattachitra, Ragamala paintings and Chitra Kavi. Similarly, new literary practices and expressions in the digital environment include literary artefacts such as interfaces, images, audio and videos. These works serve as a gateway to excit- ing electronic literature in India. KEYWORDS new literary practices; digital environment; India; ancient literary practices. RESUMO Neste ensaio, localizamos e exploramos novas práticas e expressões literárias em espaços digitais indianos, tais como romances em SMS e narrativas nos média sociais: poesia, ficção-flash, ficção-twitter que não são considerados literatura eletrónica na Índia. A integração de tecnologia e criatividade não é um fenómeno novo na literatura indiana, onde se pode encontrar uma tradição narrativa da literatura indiana antiga que inclui palavra, pintura e música, por exemplo, Pattachitra, pinturas de Ragamala e Chitra Kavi. Da mesma forma, as novas práticas e expressões literárias no ambiente digital incluem artefactos literários como interfaces, imagens, áudio e vídeo. Estas obras servem como porta de entrada para a literatura eletrónica na Índia. PALAVRAS - CHAVE novas práticas literárias; ambiente digital; Índia; práticas literárias antigas.

We all love our gadgets. And when new ones come out, we can't imagine how we lived without them. However, there's an ugly truth to the world of technology: Much of what's hot today becomes obsolete tomorrow. Just look at the humble land-line telephone. Sure, many households still have them, but a growing number of people are relying solely on cell phones and ditching the expense of operating a land line. It's not difficult to imagine a future in which land-line telephones are no longer attached to our kitchen walls but are instead filling our landfills. Here's a look at some other key pieces of technology that, once essential, are on their way to becoming obsolete. In fact, many of these gizmos might become obsolete during the next 10 years.
