What is Cell Phone Radiation?


Radiation is energy travelling through space in the form of waves or particles. There are several different types of radiation present in our surroundings on a day to day basis. Ionizing and Non – Ionizing are the two types of radiation. As per studies, Ionizing radiation is very harmful to human body because Ionizing rays from x-rays and nuclear energy has been proven to cause cancer. Whereas, In mobile phones Non – Ionizing radiation has been used and it doesn't have any negative effect on human bodies. But the speed at which the technology is growing our studies are not. So, what happen is, it has created doubt in many minds that, does this type of radiation is really safe for human health.





Cell Phone Radiation is a Myth or a serious threat to think about:

As I told you in upper section, there are two type of radiation Ionizing and Non – Ionizing. Ionizing radiation may cause serious threat to human beings because exposure to this type of radiation causes cells and genetic matter to mutate or change form. This can lead to various types of cancer, affecting the thyroid, breast, bladder, colon, liver, lung, esophagus, ovaries and stomach.

But there is nothing to worry about because the type of radiation which our cell phone emits is Non – Ionizing, which means it doesn't do much to human beings ( As per evidence says ). Even then many studies say that it may cause serious problem if we spend a good amount of time with our cell phones, so, the question which arises here is: -

  1.           What amount of time a man have to spend every day to become a victim of this radiation.

     2.  Suppose that the daily time limit for using a cell phone is 30 min, means if a person is using a cell phone for 30 min daily, then he will become a victim of radiation. But the question which arise here is what is the minimum period (days) to become a victim to this type of radiation. Means if I am using my cell phone for 30 min daily, then to how many days or years I have to sustain this thing to be a victim of radiation.

    3.  Suppose that, I am affected by radiation, then the big question which arises here is, by which disease I would suffer ( Tumours ,Memory impairment, Cancer, Brain damage, Foetal damage ). There is no clear evidence for any of them.



    What should we do?
    There is no need to get afraid from this type of radiation because no one have a clear evidence. Many studies says it may effect human brain, memory etc... but there is no clear proof. And most importantly, many of these studies were conducted in Europe and was held nearby 2004. One thing which I want to make clear is the technology or the mobile signals which works in Europe, is very much different from India or any other country.  Another thing is that, the technology which were in use at that time, was much older then what we use today. Since 2004, mobile market and technology have been very much changed and it has pulled the user mobility experience to the next level. Now days mobile phones are much cheaper, powerful, user friendly, and eco-friendly as well. Even then, if some studies are showing this type of stuff, then what we need to do is, to take some precautionary measures because at the end of the day it is for our betterment and safety. But don't take it to seriously because if there is something found wrong in it, your country government will address you.

History of Facebook


Facebook was founded by former-Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg (while at Harvard) who ran it as one of his hobby projects with some financial help from Eduardo Saverin. Within months, Facebook and its core idea spread across the dorm rooms of Harvard where it was very well received. Soon enough, it was extended to Stanford and Yale where, like Harvard, it was widely endorsed.

Before he knew it, Mark Zuckerberg was joined by two other fellow Harvard-students – Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes – to help him grow the site to the next level. Only months later when it was officially a national student network phenomenon, Zuckerberg and Moskovitz dropped out of Harvard to pursue their dreams and run Facebook full time.



But Zuckerberg needed help to grow his little social networking site that could. He would not stop until The Facebook had been installed on all university campuses in America. In September 2004, they secured venture capital from PayPal founder Peter Thiel. The $500,000 investment was a start, but Zuckerberg and friends had big plans for The Facebook. Seeing the potential value in The Facebook, Jim Breyer and Accel Partners ponied up $12.7 million to assist Zuckerberg in the expansion of his virtual empire.

So by October 2004, Zuckerberg had the money, the manpower, and the institutional backing to go global. Betatesting continued on within the American University population for the next year, and in August 2005, The Facebook dropped the “The” and Facebook.com was registered for $200,000. The network opened up, and within months anyone with a valid institutional email address from over 30,000 organizations across the planet were eligible for membership, including high school students, government employees and the corporate community.

What is Samsung BADA?


Samsung bada is a smartphone platform , which is created for wide range of device, unveiled in 2010. “bada” is a Korean word that means “ocean” and “seashore”. “bada” in itself embodies the open possibilities of the ocean: it can accommodate the various applications created by developers and it provides an interesting new space that offers unprecedented enjoyment to its users. 



History
Samsung announced the Bada platform on 10 November 2009.
After the announcement, the Wave S8500 was first shown at Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelonain February 2010. At that time, applications running on the first Bada phone were demonstrated, including Gameloft's Asphalt 5.
After the launch, companies such as Twitter, EA, Capcom, Gameloft and Blockbuster showed their support for the Bada platform.
In May 2010 Samsung released a beta of their software development kit (SDK) for Bada to attract developers. In addition, Samsung started the Bada Developer Challenge with a total prize of $2,700,000 (USD). In August 2010 Samsung released version 1.0 of the SDK.
The first Bada-based phone was the Samsung Wave S8500, released on June 1, 2010, which sold one million handsets in its first 4 weeks on the market.

Bada Versions
The Samsung S8500 Wave was launched with version 1.0 of the Bada operating system. Soon after the launch, Samsung released version 1.0.2, which included minor fixes for European users. It will be available for the rest of the world in the near future.  The latest version 1.2 was released with the Samsung S8530 Wave II phone.  The alpha-version of Bada 2.0 was introduced on February 15, 2011. Bada development is done using C++ with the Bada SDK and associated Eclipse-based IDE, both of which can be downloaded from the Bada Developers' site.

Advantages
1. Open source
2. Dev has freedom to make apps in c++ , flash,web runtime widgets
3. flash support
4. Number of apps is increasing.
5. Bada Os Based Mobile are cheap
6. The sets having Bada has High end procc (Wave: 1Ghz)
7. Samsung touch UI
8. Support Of many Companies (Game loft etc )

Disadvantages
1. New OS Therefore more bugs (need some time for new OS to settle)
2. The external sensor API is not open-ended, preventing new types of sensors or unexpected technology developments from being added in the future.
3. Due to "performance and privacy issues", Bada applications cannot access the SMS/MMS inbox or receive incoming SMS/MMS notifications.
4. The Bada application framework only allows one Bada application to run at a time. Multitasking applications is possible between the native applications and one Bada application.

Future Prospects
I say Samsung has taken a very good step in making a New OS.
