What can Google do for YOU today?

Friday, August 16th, 2013

What would we do without Google – in fact, can you imagine your life pre-Google? But did you know that you can do much more than look up random facts with Google?

In May 2012 Google announced they will be adding Knowledge Graph as an additional function to their Google search engine. Ok great, but what is  Knowledge Graph?

Knowledge Graph is  a central source of information collected from various sources, including the CIA World FactbookFreebase, and Wikipedia. This database gives structured and detailed information on a topic, together with the standard list of suggested links.

The purpose of the database is for uses to make use of the Knowledge Graph information without having to click on links which lead them to other websites.  Since 2012 this semantic network consists of more than 570 million objects and more than 10 billion facts!

Sounds quite nifty, doesn’t it? So what kind of information can you track down with this so-called Knowledge Graph?

You’ve probably already used Google translate,  an application which allows you to translate any phrase or word to another.  Google translate is part of the Knowledge Graph. Unfortunately Google’s Afrikaans skills aren’t quite up to standard yet, so don’t depend too much on it for translation to and from Afrikaans.

Apart from Google’s impressive language skills, it can also calculate the exchange rate for you when you’re going overseas. Just type in the amount and currency and the currency to which you want to convert it and you’re all set to swipe your credit card to your heart’s content in that three storey bookshop in Leuven! For example, type “10 rand to Euro” and it will instantly be converted to the right amount.

When travelling, you’ll probably be speculating about which weather to expect so you can pack the right clothes. Type in (for example)  “The weather in Antwerp” and within seconds you clothing dilemma is solved and worries about the 20 kg limit are diminished.

Are those French breakfasts too tasty for your own good and you’re starting to worry about your growing middle and cholesterol levels?  Google “How much protein is in an egg?” and you might just switch from filled omelettes to muesli.

Since you’re already worried about your health, why not look up the ailment you believe you contracted during your travels. Knowledge Graph gives you fast access to health inormation, including conditions and medication. Type in a specific ailment or medication and the explanation will be displayed.

You can even look up the sunrise and sunsets, times in various cities and specific holidays.

Having problems converting measurements – whether it’s inches, feet or other measurements, the search engine can convert height, weight, volume and temperature. Type in “2mm to inches” in the search box and press Enter. If you need more measurement options, click on the drop down list.

Speaking of numbers – for those of us who aren’t blessed with mathematical brains, Google will to the adding up for you. A dictionary function is also available for the left brainers. The dictionay can be activated by adding “define” in front of the word or just by typing it incorrectly!

Google is constantly adding new applications and extras to their search engine. Have a look at what else they have to offer at https://www.google.co.za/intl/af/help/features.html.

Your conference – unplugged

Friday, June 7th, 2013

As the trend to use your own, personal devices within the university environment increases, so does the need and expectation to have access to the internet at all times and wherever you are.

This is also the case when it comes to conferences and other academic events on campus. But how do you go about to make life easier for your and your conference attendees?

To apply for wireless access for your conference or event, just follow these simple instructions.

E-mail help@sun.ac.za with the following information*
 
Name of conference/visitor
Location of conference (building, room)
Start date and time
End date and time
Interdepartmental requisition (OE 6414​ for the amount of R300-00 per day)
Contact person
 

* E-mail has to be sent 14 days prior to the conference or arrival of visitor to ensure that there are existing WAPs (wireless access points ) at the location)

 

As soon as the request is received and after the SSID –  “service set identifier,” (username and password) is created, you will be notified by e-mail or telephonically.  When conference goers or visitors are inside the WIFI area, their equipment will pick up the WIFI  and they will be able to connect.

Still missing out on the new SU website?

Friday, April 26th, 2013

On Monday when we browsed to www.sun.ac.za, most of us were met with a fresh new Stellenbosch University web site.  For those of you who still haven’t managed to see what the fuss is about, here’s how to fix that. (Read more on the new site)

Each time you access a page through your web browser, the browser caches (i.e., stores) it locally. The browser does this to reduce bandwidth usage, server load and also to load pages faster.

By doing this, the browser doesn’t have to newly retrieve files or images from the remote web site each time. As convenient as this is, it also means that if you do not clean your browser’s cache, you might miss out on new information and any changes on websites.

If, after Monday’s changes to the university’s homepage, you are experiencing problems accessing the new sun page or any other sun web pages, we suggest you clear your browser’s cache.

The big drive in the sky

Friday, April 12th, 2013

Last year we told you more about cloud storage, what it is and the multitude of options available to you. (read the articles here) If you haven’t taken the virtual leap yet, we have even more information for you to digest. This time we have a closer look at one of those options, Microsoft’s OneDrive.

What is OneDrive?

OneDrive is a file hosting service that allows users to upload and sync files to a cloud storage and then access them from a Web browser or their local device.

What does OneDrive offer me?

The service offers 7 GB of free storage and additional storage is available for purchase. Files of up to 300 MB can be uploaded via drag and drop into the web browser, or up to 2 GB via the OneDrive desktop application for Microsoft Windows and OS X.

With the OneDrive desktop application for Windows or Mac, your files on OneDrive are available online or offline and update automatically across your devices. You can also access your OneDrive using a brand new app for Android v2.3 or the updated apps for Windows Phone, iPhone, and iPad.

The Office apps (Word, Excel, etc.) let you save your documents by default into your OneDrive directory on your local computer. With the help of OneDrive, those files are synchronized with the files in your OneDrive cloud storage, letting you access them from anywhere, or edit them using the online Web version of Microsoft Office.

Online collaboration is made easy with the new  Office Web apps, including Excel forms, co-authoring in PowerPoint and embedable Word documents. Microsoft added Office Web Apps support to OneDrive allowing users to upload, create, edit, and share Microsoft Office documents directly within a Web browser.

You can share documents with other people, which provides them with a link to access the documents from their own OneDrive account. From there, the other people can make changes to the documents at the same time that you’re changing them. As you’re working, you’ll see the areas you’re changing. Then when you save, your document will receive the updates from the other person before saving. If there are any conflicts, you’ll be notified of them and given a chance to fix them.

 

When users delete any files on OneDrive, the service will allow the user to undo the action and restore the deleted file from the recycle bin back to the original folder.  All items stored in the recycle bin are kept for a minimum of 3 days and a maximum of 30 days.

OneDrive integrates with social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to enable users to quickly share their files with their contacts on these social networks. It also supports geo-location data for photos uploaded onto the service, and will automatically display a map of the tagged location. OneDrive also allows users to tag people on the photos uploaded onto the service via the web interface or via Windows Photo Gallery.

Additionally you can sort files, change file views, view photo slide shows, and stream video.  All this functionality in one place, safe up in the clouds.

It’s all about meme

Friday, April 12th, 2013

Years ago it was the dancing baby, now it’s the Harlem Shake. These silly & sometimes shocking internet video clips are called meme’s and they’re just as entertaining and random as their live siblings, flashmobs.

A meme is a phenomenon spreading via the internet and can take on various forms – images (for example the Grumpy Cat and Lol cats photos), video, hashtags, websites or a simple work or phrase.

The word memes was originally coined by evolusionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his 1976 book The Selfish Gene. The word originated from the Greek word  “mimema” (which means “something imitated”). Dawkins described memes as a form of cultural propaganda, a means for people to communicate social memories and cultural ideas to each other. Memes spread organically and just like evolutionary biology, they include mutations and duplications. They spread fast and very rapidly change into different, new versions. People see the original, imitate and change it, and then distribute the new version on the internet.

Telling examples include the dancing baby, dating from 1996, and possibly also one of the first well-known memes. Recently the internet was invaded by the notorious Harlem Shake, a meme that even featuring during a Varsity Cup match.

Came across any interesting memes? Let us know!
