  1. Multitasking - run your favorite apps and switch between them instantly without slowing down the performance of the foreground app or draining the battery unnecessarily. I'm hoping this will also improve the battery life of my 2nd generation iPhone.
  2. Folders - folders on iPad give you more room for more apps. Organize apps by category fast access to your favorites. This is an excellent features to have in iPad, my children downloaded a lot of apps, it will take 5 to 10 slides to find my "work" apps or my favorite games.
  3. AirPrint - With just a few taps, wirelessly print photos, email, web pages, and more from your iPad to an AirPrint-enabled printer.
  4. AirPlay - Wirelessly stream music, photos, and video to your Apple TV. Or stream music to your AiPlay-enabled speakers and receivers. I hope my Sony or Visio TV will be able to stream music and video. I will definitely try this out.
  5. Find My iPad or iPhone - Locate your missing iPad on a map, display a message, set a passcode lock, or initiate a remote wipe to delete your data. This is another excellent feature to have with your Apple device, you can easily find-out where you left your device or someone else "accidentally" took it. I'm been working this GPS location service to track your location so your friends will be able to tell where you are (if you broadcast or let a group of friends or family) through Cityware.com website but not complete.
  6. Game Center - Be more social with your gaming. Find friends or use auto-match to play multiplayer games against new opponents. Track achievements and compare high scores.

Facebook Innovation

The announcement by Mark Zuckerberg is just over hype and in my humble opinion the so-called Facebook innovation combining email, messaging, instant messaging to better communicate with friends is a concept of Google Wave. Then he mentioned about email communication and priority features, Google Gmail also added this service for months. Though it's cool to have my own @Facebook.com email address but I'm not replacing my own @KING.NET powered by Google Apps anytime soon.

Convert PDF to Word document

Nitro PDF Professional V6There are many ways to convert a PDF to Word document. One I know is using from PDF saving as TIFF, then use the Microsoft Office Document Imaging to Recognize Text Using OCR, and finally Send Text To Word. That's a lot of action if you are converting 10 or more pages PDF file to Word.

It is must easier to do this task now, by just uploading the document, convert to PDF and send this to you through email courtesy by PDFtoWord.com website. According to the site, "The Most Accurate PDF-toWord Converter". I tried it and worked great. I also tested this web tool using a protected PDF password.

Though I don't recommend using the online tool if your PDF contained a sensitive information e.g. financial records, banks, social security number, and other confidential data. The website offer a desktop version of the tool where you can buy. Sorry it is not free, though you can try it for 14 days before you decide to purchase. I think that's a good deal.

The website is managed by Nitro PDF, Inc. maker of NitroPDF Professional. Click the image to learn more about the software.
