postheadericon Apps Pitch: Koubachi

request

system monitoring and sensor equipment designed to keep the foliage alive

fourth in our series of applications Koubachi tone is one of the latest applications designed to work with accessory equipment.

What do your request?

Koubachi gives your plants a voice and a green thumb yourself! For each plant in the library of the plant, we developed a model that accounts for individual species (watch a ficus has different needs from those of an orchid), the annual season and location (climate zone).

Just calibrate once and vegetable Koubachi provide detailed instructions for care when and how to care for your plant. Koubachi tells you when it needs water, fertilizer or the fog of his beloved plants.

What platform (s) is activated, and what plans you have for others?

Koubachi is currently available as an iPhone application as a Web application (my.koubachi.com). A native version for Android is currently under development and will be published in late summer. You can also use Koubachi on Facebook as a Facebook application. We start with the IOS, as there was a big boost when we started with the application.

What is the business model and why did you choose?

great news - the application is really free - and no ads or in-app purchases that annoy users at the time either. We are an active service in the Internet domain objects or objects intelligent and has just launched the Wi-Fi sensor Koubachi additional plant that fits into the system.

With the sensor, you will receive instructions to care even more precise and specific alerts to measure soil moisture, light intensity and temperature. Unfortunately we can not give free sensor - sold for £ 99

But make no mistake, you can still use the application without a sensor - but only with the sensor can get information in real time on the vitality of the plant, the more specific instructions for water, electricity and temperature alerts.

Why

innovative application - What are the main characteristics that distinguish you think and / or make the best use of the platform

For now, we have over 400 plants in the library and we are continually updating -. The objective is 800-1000 plants at the end of the year

We also focused on a user interface nice and clean. Smart device, we will continue to experiment with our ultra-low power Wi-Fi model (runs on a year on 2 AA batteries) and can think of a satellite version.

Garmin is in the early stages of their navigation path on the roads of the highway portable GPS information and entertainment in the car, but the company seems to be in the right direction, the direction of compact center dedicated to the permanent care arrangements and facilities of the board. The latest development puts more emphasis on improving control systems, signaling a potential starting point of the touch screen to mount a multi-controller allowing adjustments and minimize distractions. The system combines a proximity sensing controller rotary showing the appropriate interface with the approach of the hand, with a touchscreen and a variety of selection buttons with features that vary depending on the current menu. Besides the obvious GPS module, the system will allow the HVAC control, vehicle control and integration of applications, including smart. The multi-sensor controller is still in design phase - the project has not even been named yet - but it seems a practical solution for vehicle interfaces in the future. You can find some details on the blog post. Break

To enter - and remain - a role in information technology should be aware of new trends and be ready always to "skill up"

The sector employs the largest number of graduates from all sectors. It is popular because graduates can work for a computer company or IT role in any company in any industry. It is also an attractive career choice, as it allows flexible working arrangements, regular in the workplace, and the ability to apply skills and knowledge across a broad range of sectors.

roles include superior technical and computer programming, technical support, web development and software engineering, while business functions also exist. Employers often receive requests for graduates in engineering, mathematics, physical or financial securities.

We take about 30 to 40 graduates per year in our training plan, and about 100 trainees who are in a duct system of higher education. Not tend to have many graduates with a degree in pure computer science, as we like to hire people from all different backgrounds - and that includes graduates mature

The plan is not rotating. We give graduates a specific function and have the responsibility and accountability from day one. For the past four years, we have over 100 graduates at various levels and functions in society, and most former mentor new graduates -. We have a good communication network to support and assist graduates in our program

postheadericon Grooveshark Tries To Force Digital Music News To Unveil Commenter, Ignoring First Amendment

We covered different parts of Grooveshark claims against the recording industry. I have no idea how these requirements are coming out, but a bit of a show that you touch on topics that are of crucial importance here: the right to the protection of anonymous speakers, and protection laws protecting journalistic sources. Last fall, in the latest effort by Universal Music against Grooveshark, the company cited an anonymous blog comment on the blog of the popular music industry, digital music news. The comment claimed to be an employee of Grooveshark, and reads (in part):


work for Grooveshark. Here is some information from the trenches:

we have not been assigned a default file system for each week and get a small bonus if we go beyond the (easy). The tasks are assumed to direct orders from top to bottom, we do not volunteer to "improve" the Grooveshark database.

All search results are monitored and when something is labeled as "not available", which is in line to load our lists. You have to visualize the database into two general sections: "known" things and "discover / indie / underground." The "known" things is handled internally by the load. Only for "discovering" things are users involved, as explained in some posts above. In practical terms, there is little need for users to download a major album since they already take care of this on a daily basis.

To be honest, when I mention the original presentation of this comment, I was very surprised that Universal would use it on demand. After all, a

anonymous

comment on a blog. It is pure rumor, without any real evidence that the commentator actually works in Grooveshark. It's completely useless as evidence.


Although
Naturally, one would think that Universal Music, then issue a summons to who was the comment author. ... But instead of
Grooveshark issued a subpoena (PDF embedded below) seeks to identify the speaker. It is also strange. If UMG has been able to identify the individual, then Grooveshark know that information. But if (as seems to be the case so far ) UMG does nothing, this individual claims in the lawsuit are useless anyway.
Anyway, Paul Resnikoff of Digital Music News concerned about the quote to appear as DMN has a policy not to reveal his anonymous commentators (and often used as sources.) Therefore, it was decided to postpone, highlighting key points. Public Citizen, Paul Levy has recently agreed to Resnikoff represent in this case and sent a letter to the parent company Grooveshark (embedded below) explaining why you should stop barking Groovehsark this special tree. Beyond questions of the First Amendment, the right of journalists to protect their sources, and ueslessness the original comment, first, there is the simple fact that DMN does not keep records for long comments, and no useful information to answer the call anyway.
