MY NEWS

Martin Whitmarsh can not believe what you hear on the news: Lewis Hamilton said that the MP4-26 is not able to win the World Cup, Jenson Button, confirm the superiority of Ferrari and Red Bull Racing in the first half of the season . What happens to McLaren? "They have surrendered before the war? His boss, Martin Whitmarsh, is not the work to continue their defeatist thinking: "Historically, automobile experts have failed in trying to extrapolate the training times to predict the outcome of the race. And I will not join them ", says confident in an interview on the official site of Formula 1.


Not that Hamilton and Button arguments have not ruled out as a favorite car, McLaren has not shown a particularly devastating pace in winter testing, and mechanical problems have been mixed. But Martin believes that the preseason is just that: "Suffice it to say we had some reliability problems during training, but we are confident that things will go in the right direction now."


McLaren has made an unusual season, running with the car in 2010 to start and delaying the arrival of the MP4-26 to Valencia. This week is also the only team that has scheduled two sets of two days each in Barcelona during training being carried out at Montmelo: test on Tuesday and Wednesday, rest on Thursday, and on track again on Friday and Saturday: "In this way we get an extra day of work," says Martin.

DROPBOX

Web-based file hosting service operated by Dropbox, Inc. that uses cloud computing to enable users to store and share files and folders with others across the Internet using file synchronization. It was founded in 2007 by Drew Houston and ArashFerdowsi.
There are both free and paid services, each with varying options.  In comparison to similar services, Dropbox offers a relatively large number of user clients across a variety of desktop and mobile operating systems. There are a total of 10 clients, including versions for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux (official and unofficial), as well as versions for mobile devices, such as Android, iPhone, iPad and BlackBerry, and a web-based client for when no local client is installed. Dropbox uses the Freemium financial model and its free service provides 2 GB omjf free online storage.  The service's major competitors include Box.net, Sugarsync, Mozy, and ZumoDrive.

Functionality
The Dropbox client enables users to drop any file into a designated folder that is then synced withDropbox's Internet service and to any other of the user's computers and devices with the client. DropboxUsers may also upload files manually through a web browser. Through these usages, it can be analternative to couriering physical removable media, and other traditional forms of file transfer, such as FTP and e-mail attachments.
While Dropbox functions as a storage service, its focus is on synchronization and sharing. It supportsrevision history, so files deleted from the Dropbox folder may be recovered from any of the syncedcomputers. Dropbox's version control also helps users know the history of a file they may be currentlyworking on, enabling more than one person to edit and re-post files without complications of losing itsprevious form. The version history is limited to 30 days.
