Windows 8:New task manager and USB booting

The newest discoveries: the OS( windows 8) will have a revamped Task Manager and a way to boot Windows from USB

The new Windows 8 will have task manager and a new Portable Workspaces feature that lets you backup your version of Windows to a USB drive..

Advanced Task Manager

WinRumors believes that Microsoft is working on a new task manager interface for Windows 8 and has the screenshots to back it up.

This screenshot is of the Advanced Task Manager, which shows CPU usage, running processes, and other detailed information for users who can understand it.

In the lower right of the picture you can see another part of the new task manager that indicates how much memory and power an application or process is using up. This type of information is currently available in Windows 7, but like all task managers since Windows 95, even Windows 7 fails to label all apps and .exe’s properly or explain what they do. Microsoft may be finally attempting to simplify this messy, necessary interface in Windows 8.

The screenshot above, shows a larger, more touch-friendly interface for the basic task manager. Applications can be killed by simply pressing the X button on the right, while categories can be minimized or maximized by clicking on them with a mouse or, presumably, a touch of the finger.

Portable Workspaces

Finally, Windows 8 will have a Portable WorkSpace feature, which lets you install a fully bootable, usable version of Windows onto a 16+ GB USB drive. This feature could help IT folk diagnose problems with PC installations. Ideally, business users could also pop in a USB drive with their setup on it into a client’s computer and safely share sensitive information. Portable Workspaces is currently only in the Enterprise (and probably Ultimate) edition of Windows 8.

A Chinese Facebook is coming and will make Huge Censorship Concessions

A Facebook lobbyist recently said that perhaps the site was allowing too Much Free Speech in countries that were not used to the luxury. The Facebook-China rumor mill has been churning for years now, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that the site will launch a censorship-friendly option in the country. As Per the Information , Facebook Will Parter With Baidu ( Baidu - Chinese search engine ) and launch a separate site, although all users will have the ability to connect to it – but not without some red tape. “ When Facebook users outside China connect with users inside China, sources said they will need to click through a warning that any material visible to Chinese users may also be visible to the Chinese government .” China has been accused of hacking Gmail accounts of Chinese dissidents , so if you’re trying to connect to Facebook China, it can be assumed your content is being monitored.
