FCC report negates free Internet interference claims

A Federal Communications Commission engineering report released late Friday essentially backs a plan to create a free wireless Internet service by dismissing concerns about interference for existing providers.

The FCC has been considering auctioning 25 megahertz of spectrum in the 2155MHz to 2180MHz band. As part of the rules for using the spectrum, the FCC plans to require license holders to offer some free wireless broadband service.

The FCC sees the plan, which is based on a proposal submitted to the FCC by M2Z Networks in 2006, as a way to provide broadband Internet service to millions of Americans who either can't afford or don't want to pay for high-speed Internet access.

But existing providers like T-Mobile USA, which spent $4.2 billion in 2006 acquiring spectrum in an adjacent band, say that opening up this spectrum would cause interference and disrupt service.

Friday's report, however, concludes that spectrum could be used as planned "without a significant risk of harmful interference."

It should be noted that this free Internet plan is separate from a proposal to use so called unused TV spectrum, also known as "white space" for wireless broadband services.

MySpace targets small advertisers with new program

MySpace has unveiled "MyAds," an advertising technology focused on small businesses and individuals rather than the huge brand advertisers that the News Corp.-owned social network is best known for. It's a platform in which an advertiser can allocate exactly how much to spend--between $25 ad $10,000--and target its audience using the HyperTargeting system that MySpace debuted just under a year ago.

With HyperTargeting, MySpace says that there are more than 1,100 specific ways to target an ad based on geography, demographics, interests, and other information sourced from public profile data. Advertisers can then keep tabs on performance through online analytics.

MyAds is currently restricted to MySpace in the U.S., where it has about 76 million members.

The "self-service" model is similar to what Facebook has done with its own ad platform--create an ad, choose how much to spend, select a target audience. But MySpace has a more obvious clientele in mind: bands. The MyAds homepage explicitly recommends the service for band promotion, something that gets very close to MySpace's roots as an independent music hub.

Why Solidworks?

by man of love land, Sep 2, 2008

For those who want to start using Solidworks.

Today, engineers and engineering students use many software programs while designing new constructions, mechanisms and systems. Of all those software programs; Autocad, Solidworks, Unigraphics, Catia and Proengineering are the most popular and preferred programs. Autocad is usually used for 2D design. However, others are for 3D design. I've started using Solidworks after one year experience in Autocad. I realized that Autocad sometimes doesn't meet my requirements. I discovered Solidworks and what I would do with the assistance of this program.

Why solidworks? Because it is very easy to use. Eveything is clear in Solidworks. If you know English and have a little computer knowledge and technical information, you can easily learn how to use Solidworks wtihout needing any additional source like books and tutorials . It is very easy to understand the fundementals of SW.

Other plausible reason is that there are many Solidworks books in Bookstores. One can find many resources written in different languages. For me, it is easy to find such sources written both in English and my native language Turkish. Solidworks have been given as two-semester course in most of European and American universities.

Designing starts with 2D in Solidworks. Above all, you should have a knowledge of drawing in 2D. You should be capable of making 2D sketches. You should be capable of forming the main 2D construction of solid systems . Rest is very simple because it goes on with simple extrusion, hole making, cutting, lofting and revolving processes.

Another advantage of Solidworks is that it works well with all versions of Windows operating system . The last version, SW 2008, is installed and worked on Vista after loading Service Pack of Vista. Without Service Pack, it doesn't run on your system.

To learn how to use Solidworks and how to design systems or just making drawings for fun, follow my tutorial set. My next article will be about simple 3D drawings. In the next articles, you should learn how to draw cylinders, rectangular prisms and cubes with very different dimensions.

In a nutshell, Solidworks is a good way to explain the things in your mind with simple lines and curves.

Using SolidWorks with one of our navigation devices will accelerate your entire workflow. From concept, to sketch, to part, to assembly and drawing, you’ll finish faster in every mode. With a 3Dconnexion navigation device, you click less and accomplish more. You’ll be amazed that you ever worked with a mouse alone!

SolidWorks includes translators that allow users to communicate with all types of CAD data. No other CAD tool offers the proven power of SolidWorks when translating other CAD data.

SolidWorks has introduced more innovations to the CAD market since 1995 than any other CAD Software developer. Each new release of SolidWorks provides users with hundreds of innovative, time saving, productivity enhancing, and client requested features.

If you’re not dealing with very large, assemblies, don't make extensive use of top down design, have no interest in advanced surfacing (like you indicated you don't above), don't feel that having the CAD and CAM vendor be the same is important, don't deal with mainly native Pro/E files, than SolidWorks maybe a better choice as it has an easier to use UI.

I've used Catia V5, pro/e wf2 and solidworks, and each has its ups. SolidWorks the easist to pick up and learn, especially with those online tutorials built in. Performance-wise, pro/e has a lot and advanced features, but definately not easy to just figure out. I think catia is one of the better ones for top down and assembly management. It seems solidworks is getting there slowly and it's used by many brcause it's cheap(relatively speaking). For Interface and functionality, I like using solidworks more. I think Catia is on a completly different level,a better one, and I really like the mouse functions.

SolidWorks only runs on Windows. Generally SolidWorks adopts and retires Windows platform support in step with Microsoft's "Mainstream Support" of the various flavors of Windows. SolidWorks was made available for 64-bit Windows shortly after Windows XP x64 was released. SolidWorks is currently beta-testing a Windows Vista version.

In Windows XP, it is very easy to turn off the excess graphics effects. From your Desktop, right click on My Computer and choose Properties. Click on the Advanced tab of the dialog that appears, then hit the button for Performance Settings. On the first tab that appears (Visual Effects), choose the option to Adjust for best performance. If you want, you can check the box to turn on Use visual styles on windows and buttons, since that option probably has little performance impact and will allow you to keep the look of Windows XP.
