★ Ultracold science finds new method to get even colder

★ Researchers have developed a clever way to achieve the lowest temperatures ever recorded on Earth.

★ Achieving such temperatures is necessary to study fundamental properties of matter and the strange effects caused by quantum mechanics.

★ The new method relies on "optical lattices" of atoms from which only the hottest atoms are selectively removed.

★ The approach, reported in Nature, may be well-suited to create memory for future quantum computers.

★ Atoms can be held in place using light, forming an "optical lattice", cooled to extremely low temperature

1- A bit is short fir "binary digit". 

2- A bit is the smallest piece of computer information.

3- Most computers use combinations of eight bits, called bytes, to represent one character of data.

4- For example the word cat has three characters, and it would be represented by three bytes.

5- A kilobyte (K or KB) is equal to 1,024 bytes.

6- A Megabyte (MB) is equal to 1,048,576 bytes, but it is usually rounded off to one million bytes.

7- A Gigabyte is one thousand megabytes.

8- Computer Memory is usually measured in megabytes or gigabytes. This describes how much information your computer can store.

Yahoo's Original name ?

Yahoo!'s original name was "David and Jerry's Guide to the World Wide Web".

In January 1995, Jerry Yang and David Filo(founders of yahoo) were electrical engineering graduate students at Stanford University when they created a website named "David and Jerry's Guide to the World Wide Web" which later changed to Yahoo!The yahoo.com domain was created on January 18, 1995.The word is an acronym for "Yet Another Hierarchical Officious Oracle." The term "hierarchical" described how the Yahoo! database was arranged in directory layers, the term "oracle" was intended to mean "source of truth and wisdom," and "officious" described the many office workers who would use the Yahoo! database while surfing from work.
However, Filo and Yang insist they mainly selected the name because they liked the slang definition of a "yahoo" (used by college students in David Filo's native Louisiana in the late 1980s and early 1990s to refer to an unsophisticated, rural Southerner): "rude, unsophisticated, uncouth." Filo's college girlfriend often referred to Filo as a "yahoo." "Yahoo" also stems from the name of a fictional being from Gulliver's Travels.

┗▶ If you go to yahoo.com and press the exclamation mark(!) on the yahoo logo on top left of your screen, you can hear it say "Yahoo!"
