We are celebrating the 40th year of Internet,but Internet's beginnings on September 2, 1969 at the ARPANet was quite humble.
When Len Kleinrock and his team at UCLA began tests 40 years ago on what would become the Internet. Neither was social networking(Orkut,Facebook etc), videos on the Internet(Youtube), nor were most of the other easy-to-use applications that have drawn more than a billion people online, was their in there mind.
Back in 1965, Intel co-founder Gordon Moore made a prediction, popularly known as Moore's Law, which states that the microprocessor power will grow at an exponential rate, doubling every 18month,(speed of computing power will double every 18month). And Intel has kept that pace for nearly 40 years with its Processors (Processing power, measured in millions of instructions per second (MIPS), has steadily risen because of increased transistor counts).
With this ever increasing processing power and the rise of other technological platform, how will Internet look like five years from now.
Here`s what Google CEO Eric Schmidt has predicted
#Five years from now the internet will be dominated by Chinese-language content.
#Today’s teenagers are the model of how the web will work in five years - they jump from app to app seamlessly.
#Within five years distinctions between TV, radio and the web will go away.
Your Body Language for a Job Interview
Postures and body movements are unconscious forms of expressions and therefore they have a language of their own.Some research says the 92% of communication takes place non-verbally, with words contributing only about 8%. That's why you must carefully evaluate your body language for job interviews.
In a stressful situation like a job interview, it's possible that you might be more fidgety than usual. Body language is very important in a job interview, sometimes, it can let interviewers know more about you than what you tell them. When we are in stressful situations, our body usually react accordingly.For example, you might tap your foot, fiddle with a button or a pen, repeatedly run fingers through your hair, nodding your head too much, etc. These convey that you may be nervous or bored and makes for a fairly unprofessional image. That's bad body language for job interviews
Here`s a list of six key indicators of good body language:
#Stand Tall: Standing tall projects confidence.
#Lean In Slightly: Leaning forward shows that you are engaged and interested.But be respectful about the other persons space.
#Smile: It indicates invitation, a friendly and approchable character.Research shows that smile activates rewards centre in brain.
#Make Eye Contact: When you make eye contact with the person you are speaking to, it transmit energy,indicates interest, convey confidence and openness.
#Sit Straight:Slouching in the chair suggests you're unprepared for the interview, or that, deep in your heart, you know you're not up to the task.
#Shake Hands:A positive handshake will break the ice and will get the interview moving in the right direction.This will promote openness, confidence and trustworthiness.Research says it takes three hours of talking to develop the kind of rapport which a single hand shake can.
