Google is going to bring new gadget ads to adsense. I don’t know if this is a good move by Google but I feel that these people are making more categories of ads and banning legit sites.
Well whatever may be the case but these new ad formats- gadget ads are interactive and allow for JavaScript and Flash to be integrated. Now what makes it more interesting is that people won’t be diverted to other pages while clicking on the ad rather the ad will show information on the browsing page itself. Currently these ads have been tested by few companies.

Meizu yesterday came up with the M7 right after a week the announcement of iPod. It was close to the iPod in design, functionalities. Today CEO J.Wong posted new interface shots of the M8 on there company forums.Now don’t tell me you even copied the interface…….heck! Don’t get surprised , it’s the same as iPhone, just about everything! You can expect touchscreen designs to be around same. But the possibilities of the UI being same thats really odd. Hey copying is fine, but should atleast confess you are taking some inspiration from iPhone. Expect guerrilla wars this fall between Steve and Wong.

CD’s are starting to fade away just like the VHS tape and the Blaupunkt Melbourne SD27 receiver/audio player confirms the fact. The receiver has no CD player which is a little strange for a car receiver. But we are covering a topic on a car receiver without any CD option. Don’t worry SD cards are real cheap nowadays , atleast you won’t need to carry the CD stacks during long drives. You can even stream music via the optional iPod and USB/Bluetooth adapters from any equipped MP3 player or cellphone. Uff…I almost forgot it comes with an AM/FM radio with 25 preset station options and a 3.5mm auxiliary input to plug in the audio device of your choice.At $160 the Melbourne SD27 lets you say “Good Bye” to your beloved CD collection.

Bose, one of the most reputed companies in the high end audiophile systems category, but they thinking of taking a chuck of the PC audio segment by introducing a new set of speaker specially designed for your desktop. The Computer MusicMonitors are two 5-inch by 2-inch, 25-watt speakers powered by so called “dual internal opposing passover radiators. Definitely Bose should bring in a change to the already crowded PC audio speaker segment.
