This new innovation impressed a lot of Google searchers with this new search feature, BUT!, there are some who feels that this upgrade is less helpful and for some it seems not to be working.

The roll out of Google Instant started Wednesday in the U.S. and will continue across different geographies. “We’ll also be offering Google Instant to our users in France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Spain and the U.K. who are signed in and have Instant-capable browsers. Over the coming weeks and months, we’ll work to roll out Google Instant to all geographies and platforms,” Marissa Mayer of Google said.

Are you having any problem using Google Instant?

Reasons why you are having trouble with this new Google Instant are: probably due to your browser because Google Instant works with Chrome, Firefox, Safari and IE 8 or if you don’t have the latest version of your browser it is recommended that you upgrade. If this is the issue, users that go to www.google.com/instant/ will receive a message from Google that reads, “Google Instant is not available for your web browser. Please upgrade to the latest version of a modern browser to use Google Instant,” and you may also get this message, “Google Instant is rolling out over several days to users signed in to a Google Account. Check back soon if you are signed in and do not see it yet.” This is for users other than U.S. geography.

In Google Help Forum, users with Google Instant problems were advised to try clearing your browser’s cache and deleting your cookies. You may also try doing that.

On Friday Apple said that about a million users had activated the Pings service which equates to about 33% of the people who use ITunes. But Ping has also been criticized for its lack of connectivity with other larger and more well known web networking services and for its mis-analyzing of a persons entire music library. Ping only checks content downloaded via ITunes. Facebook earlier blocked access to Ping as the two parties could not reach a deal between the two parties.

With it’s latest creation, the Samsung Galaxy Tab NX100, the company advances to creating a more sophisticated device. It is expected that the Galaxy Tab would compete with Apple’s iPad whenever it gets to the market. The Samsung Galaxy Tab will have its official debut on the European trade show IFA this September 2010.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab boasts its 7-inch touch screen. The device is running on Android 2.2 OS known as Froyo. The Galaxy Tab is basically a larger version of Samsung’s best smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S just like the iPad which is a larger version of the iPhone.

Samsung’s tablet is rumored to have some mobile TV capabilities but this will be verified once this device comes out to public. Apple’s iPad is still great but Samsung designed the Galaxy Tab to have some better features especially those which the iPad lacks like some of the phone features on the device.

Apple fans from all over the world can’t help but to wait for the next big announcement from the company’s CEO, Steve Jobs, to reveal the improved devices or probably some additional Apple devices to enter the world of the technology era. The giant manufacturer of these awesome devices will have a grand press event this 1st day of September. It is expected that Steve Jobs will do the honors to introduce the latest creation of the company to the public.

Though it is Apple who is having a big announcement, PC users and other gadget and tech enthusiasts will surely watch this press event. The announcement can be seen live on Apple’s official website. Unfortunately, the live streaming is restricted to Mac and iOS devices like the iPhone and iPod Touch. This is sad and somewhat shows selfishness on Apple’s part but the good thing here is that they’re having the live streaming of the press event again just like on the previous events.

But for those who are also interested to what Apple will bring us, there are certain sites which will have the live stream of this event. Luckily, whether you’re on a Mac or PC, you can still watch the event. There are live feeds from USTREAM which allow users to watch the press event.

There are rumors about what the announcement will focus on. A brand new, iOS-powered Apple TV which can be called as the iTV is expected to be introduced to the public. Aside from this, improvements on its existing iPod Touch. If this is so, then iPod Touch 4G will come our way.
