Could Playing "Call of Duty" Lead To A Successful Career?

Could Playing a first person shooter Lead To A Successful Career?

a recent review put together by researchers from the university of Rochester  found that action-oriented FPS (first person shooters) like COD (call of duty) and Halo may actually may actually help improve a person's cognitive functioning called visual attention. visual attention is tracking objects and labelling the importance of them. an example is driving and you see a kid playing by the road and a telephone pole, the kid is more important and unpredictable so its more important then the telephone pole. and the way FPS's help that is the tracking many objects at the same time. those in professions like a jet pilot and ground soldiers benefit from 'super-normal' visual attention. Laparoscopic surgeons have already been reported to benefit from video game training. they show shorter completion times and fewer errors. so FPS's may just benefit some in the future.

Acer Outs New Tablets, 4.8-inch Phone, Dual Screen Laptop

Acer Outs New Tablets, 4.8-inch Phone, Dual Screen Laptop

acer is getting into the tablet market and that's a good thing for consumers since acer is one of the most aggressive companies when it comes to their pricing. they are scheduled to come out next year along with a 4.8 inch phone and a dual screen laptop. both the phone and the tablet will feature Android to power it. the tablet will feature a 1280x800 screen resolution which doesn't exist yet. the dual screen laptop called the Iconia will feature two 14 inch 1366x768 screens and be powered by windows 7 and Intel core i5. But with it weighing over 6 pounds it might not be that appealing to some. and the phone is going to come out with a 4.8-inch Android phone and a 1024x480 resolution which is very impressive for a phone. all of these are expected to be released sometime next year.
