Hi guys i am back, this time with some interesting pieces of information that you would always wanted to know. Being a techie is a good thing but what is more important is that you keep yourself updated. So here i am opening my Pandora's box for you and i bet you will enjoy reading this.
1) Microsoft acquired the hotmail long back, but do you know till the year Y2K it was running it on FreeBSD using Apache web servers.
2) Deep Web ( also called Deepnet, the invisible Web, dark Web or the hidden Web) is what you cannot find using general web search engines. According to an estimate there is about 91000 terabytes of data available on the web which can be categorized into the above mentioned category.
3) Scott McNealy Chairman of Sun Microsystems have graduated from Harvard University with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics. He received his MBA from the Stanford Graduate School of Business.
4) The basic elements of both the MacOS and Windows were developed at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Centre. Xerox did not patent them and this resulted in the windfall gain for both Apple & Microsoft.
5) Mark Andreessen was still an undergraduate when he refined Tim Berners-Lee's original browser into a consumer application known as Mosaic. Released in 1993 it became the first popular download and led to consumers switching onto the web in their millions. Andreessen later co-founded Netscape.
6) Doug Engelbart is known to be the inventor of mouse but in reality the men who really invented the mouse were Tom Cranston and his colleague Fred Longstaff as part of a Canadian Navy project that began in 1949.
7) Robert Noyce of Fairchild Semiconductor is the inventor of integrated circuit (also known as IC, microcircuit, microchip, silicon chip, or chip).
I hope you guys enjoyed reading this ;)
