Microsoft Launches Windows Phone Web Page
Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft has launched a new web page highlighting its existing Windows Phone 6.5 and the upcoming Windows Phone 7 mobile platforms. The page offers several resources such as tutorials and a list of featured applications for both versions of the mobile OS. In addition, the new web page allows individuals to view the different smartphones available. The list of Windows Phone 7 smartphones is currently empty for obvious reasons. However, users can learn more about existing Windows Phone 6.5 devices.There’s no much to say about the web page other than it needs some refinements. With that said, the new Windows Phone web page does a good job providing existing Windows Phone 6.5 users and future/potential Windows Phone 7 users with great information about both versions of the operating system.
Click here to check out the new Windows Phone page. Let us know what your thoughts are in the comments below.

Google Instant
About Google Instant
Google Instant is a new search enhancement that shows results as you type. We are pushing the limits of our technology and infrastructure to help you get better search results, faster. Our key technical insight was that people type slowly, but read quickly, typically taking 300 milliseconds between keystrokes, but only 30 milliseconds (a tenth of the time!) to glance at another part of the page. This means that you can scan a results page while you type.
The most obvious change is that you get to the right content much faster than before because you don’t have to finish typing your full search term, or even press “search.” Another shift is that seeing results as you type helps you formulate a better search term by providing instant feedback. You can now adapt your search on the fly until the results match exactly what you want. In time, we may wonder how search ever worked in any other way.
Benefits
Faster Searches: By predicting your search and showing results before you finish typing, Google Instant can save 2-5 seconds per search.
Smarter Predictions: Even when you don’t know exactly what you’re looking for, predictions help guide your search. The top prediction is shown in grey text directly in the search box, so you can stop typing as soon as you see what you need.
Instant Results: Start typing and results appear right before your eyes. Until now, you had to type a full search term, hit return, and hope for the right results. Now results appear instantly as you type, helping you see where you’re headed, every step of the way.
