    If you've ever bought anything online and have been redirected to pay pal know that the person who took your credit card and wont give it back is Ellon Mask. Elon Mask was born South Africa and became a millionaire in his late twenties by selling a start up company like Pay pal and many others for more than  $1.5 billion in stock to EBay. Musk ventured of in Space Exploration  Technology Corp. (Space X) in 2002 and co founder of Tesla auto motives 2003. He was recently crowned by Time's most influential man of 2013.

Richard Branson (owner of Virgin airline founder of Virgin Mobile) said,"Whatever skeptics have said can’t be done, Elon has gone out and made real. Remember in the 1990s, when we would call strangers and give them our credit-card numbers? Elon dreamed up a little thing called Pay Pal. His Tesla Motors and Solar City companies are making a clean, renewable-energy future a reality. It’s a paradox that Elon is working to improve our planet at the same time he’s building spacecraft to help us leave it. But true vision is binocular — and Elon Musk is clearly a man who can see many things at once"(branson Times100). Its clearly that he has become the next Iconic figure in inventions but the most recent invention is quite beyond belief. In August 2013, Musk proposed an idea to make a train that goes from San Francisco to Los Angela's in 35 minutes top reaching speeds over  700 mph.
The proposed Hyperloop high-speed transport system would ferry passengers between Los Angeles and San Francisco in about 30 minutes, according to entrepreneur Elon Musk. This sketch shows what a passenger capsule might look like.

Capsules would move between the two cities through a network of elevated, pressurized tubes, built roughly parallel to California's I-5 freeway. For longer cross-country trips, however, Musk believes air travel will remain more efficient.

As envisioned by Musk, passengers would travel more than 700 mph through the steel tubes, aided by anti-friction air pressure.

   The California High- Speed Rail Authority Chairman Dan Richard has stated that he will show Musk "what it really takes to build a project in California" if the Hyper-loop project begins to gain momentum. The plan would take seven to ten years to make and ready for use. With an an estimated cost of $6 billion, his plan is still long underway.

The Future Of Internet

One word that can sum up the Internet is now what makes the greatest impact in the world. How the Internet has revolutionized the world today is incredible. From business, schools, governments you name its there and still going its still going. What you can say today is that everyday function of the world cannot make it without Internet for what so ever reason.  A lot of people are Now wondering what is the Next step since it has been on upgrade about Internet in the last decade except revolutionizing it? well Since the Age of the Tech Wars began back between IBM, Apple, and Microsoft, it seams that Apple has yet held there-crown this whole week . As I was reading the news of Flipboard today, an Interesting article caught my eye and yes, it had to do with Apple.

It read,"For five years, researchers have toiled over an obscure bit of fundamental Internet infrastructure that promises to make the connections to our mobile devices faster and more reliable"(quartz2013). The thing is that all this advancement is just becoming a rival war within companies who are just trying to become number one in the tech industries. Anyway, the"Multi-path TCP allows your phone to send data by whatever way it’s connected to the Internet, whether that’s Wi-Fi, 3G or Ethernet (say, if it were running on a laptop connected to the Internet via a cable). And if you want to activate it, says one of the researchers who built multi-path TCP, you have only to use Apple’s voice command software, Siri"(quartz). Only problem is that Apple is the only company that has made such technology open for the public market. Compared with Html 5 (which is the newest version for programmers) data has shown sometimes in consistent with speed. Whether 3G or 4G nobody has quite yet realized the opportunity of taking things to the next step when Internet could be with mobile data. Ever download an app and all of a sudden the network drop and all your left with is Network error? Well, TCP solves that issue not network drop but speed in way of faster download fewer Network errors.

What is the Best: Apple vs Samsung?

As we all know the heat between apple and Samsung has never became more sweeter. Apple recently released there new ios 7 software which is far more cunning than the previous models.(below)
                    Apple 5s with IOS 7
The design while is more of a fashion statement than anything else but similar to Google's operating system Jellybean 4.3 for android and smartphone. (Below)

After using Apple's ios system I found out that it had the same similarity to that of Samsung's.  Quit simple but easy to use for the most part, IOS 7 has surely brought the world to there knees bringing its stunning software to life. From key features ranging from; up to date notifications of the current New York Stock exchange stats, to the notifications of messages, missed calls, and appointments you have, it brings sexy back to software. You might may even say it has outdone Siri in all of its major functions. Same goes for the Samsungs Jellybean 4.3, it has the same compact functions as IOS 7 but, is quite more brilliant in its way due to the simplicity that it understands the owner in a realistic way. From your facebook  update, to the local events happening in your area it can surely do them all. Both are two compact software's who are large rivals when it comes to their devices but, the real Question is which one to choose from? IOS 7 or Google Jellybean 4.3? You decide.
