Do you need to share sensitive/confidential information with a friend or colleague yet you’re nervous about leaving a trace of the conversation on the net? If that’s the case, you should give Burn Note a try. Burn Note lets you send messages over email without leaving a long-term record of the contents. After you write a note, a private link is generated, which you can send to your recipient. Once the recipient reads the note, Burn Note automatically 'burns' the note from its server and removes any trace of it from phones and computers. You can allow/disallow a recipient from copying a text, set how the message will be displayed, set a timer after which the note will be burned/deleted from the Internet or even add a password if you're feeling particularly paranoid.

Not a million options here, that’s the beauty of the system. If you want to customize things a bit however, feel free. Just note, even if you leave everything at their defaults, all notes will be deleted after 72hours opened or not. To check the copies of notes you sent, click on your username and select Notes. To check the copies of notes you sent, click on your username and select Notes. It will you show the email address and the time at which the Note was sent to a specific person.

CTX's Brookstone Virtual Keyboard turns any flat surface into a touchscreen QWERTY keypad, all the while fitting nicely inside a small keychain. The smallest (1.5") and most affordable (US$100) virtual keyboard to date, it projects a laser outline of a full-sized QWERTY keyboard in front of it, while an optical sensor tracks a user's finger movements as they type. A Bluetooth connection lets it sync wirelessly to most smart devices, and a lithium ion battery holds enough power for two hours of typing and can be recharged through USB. Aside from portability, the keyboard is also much more sanitary than a physical one that accumulates dust and grime the more it's used.

You can connect this keyboard to your smart-phones, iPhones, iPad, tablets, desktop, Pcs, etc. It usually works on those mobile devices which have at least Android version 3.1. You can use this keyboard both in the office and at home. Brookstone is a red laser projection virtual keyboard.

This projection keyboard is specially designed for the people who face difficulty in typing on mobile touchPad. These keyboards are also connected to your desktops via Bluetooth. You can use the keyboards during traveling or when you have no space to spare on your laptop. These virtual keyboards usually work right on smooth and flat surfaces.

The world's largest magnet, weighing 50,000 tonnes, is being designed at the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) at Trombay. It will be several times bigger than the one in the Compact Muan Solenoid detector at CERN in Geneva. The magnet will be used in the Neutrino Observatory which will be housed in a giant cave near Madurai, Tamil Nadu.

The primary aim of the project is to find out more about the behaviour of subatomic particles known as atmospheric neutrinos. The neutrinos will interact with the 50,000 tonnes of magnetized iron resulting in charged particles that will be affected by the magnetic field. Tens of thousands of detectors will be installed in the observatory to monitor the behaviour of these particles.

The Neutrino Observatory would be a major facility relating to the area of basic sciences and would help scientists and students in fields like particle physics, astrophysics and space sciences.

 Scan Master acts as a scanner in your pocket. The app uses your phone's or tablet's built-in rear-facing camera to snap a photo of whatever you want to scan. The free to use app is sized at nearly 2 MB and is compatible with devices running Android 2.2 or later. After you've taken the photo, you can tweak the image e.g., adjusting brightness or cropping. How is this different from simply taking photos of documents? Scan Master converts your scans into PDF files. Moreover, pictures can be taken in batches to be merged into a single PDF document. Share files via e-mail and social networks or upload to Dropbox.

Waterpebble is an eco-trendy device that allows you to ease in to water conservation in a way that is enjoyable and educational. Simply place the small pebble-like device in the shower, near the drain, and check how much water is going down the drain. It memorizes your first shower as a benchmark, then gradually sets about reducing the amount of water you use by fractionally reducing your shower time. It does this via a series of traffic lights - red, orange and green. They indicate too much', 'just enough and well done, you're saving the planet, respectively. From that point on it starts gradually encouraging you to diminish your shower time by flashing the appropriate light.

Water Pebble is a world’s first. Paul Priestman a director of design company Priestmangoode was inspired by a sign in a hotel bathroom to, “Please Use Water Sparingly” and he started developing the concept on his return home. Waterpebble is unique in the way it works to help reduce water usage. Waterpebble encourages you to use less water each time you shower.

Press the reset button. 3 lights will flash .Place in the shower near the plughole. Shower as normal. The lights will flash green, amber and red as Waterpebble memorises your shower. Then each time you shower, Waterpebble lights up to indicate.
