Could you please switch off your computer monitor when not in use?

I asked my colleague few days back. In response, he immediately changed the settings on his computer such that, his monitor switches off after five minutes of inactivity. Convincing a colleagues to do a little to save energy and hence environment was quite easy. It took my two minutes only.

People in general want to save energy and environment whenever possible but they are generally careless. We have to be really careful and make sure that we do our best to save energy (which helps environment) whenever possible. If you want to change the settings of your Windows computer to save energy, follow these steps.

Right click on your desktop --> Click Properties --> Click on Screen Saver --> Click on Power -->
On this tab you can do several things to save power. You can time switching off monitor, switching off hard disks, system standby, and system hibernation at set times. Choose what is best for you, and feel happy for saving energy and environment. Its that simple.

इंटरनेट और हिन्दी

Indians are looking for Hi Tech Products

Felt good to read the article. It was still disheartening to see only 5% of Indians have access to the computers.

The article also mentioned about a wonderful keyboard, which can use Pen Gesture to be used for data entry. It may sound like tablet PC, but its definitely a much simpler, cheaper and efficient version. Especially, with so many languages an dilaects in India, this pen thing would actually help a lot of people getting acclamatised to computer.
Other interesting gadget was $100 green computer developed at MIT. It will be in production by 2007. I hope it will serve a long way in making India computer literate.

Cheers
