United Kingdom Ministry of education’s Chief strongly praised the game education effect

In the Internet search market in mainland China, Baidu alone, occupy the market share of 83.6%. But in the international market, Baidu search great nameless – in the United States except for the stock market. Successful localization, internationalization failed, Baidu is a piece of heart disease. Baidu’s efforts has been to go around. In December 2006, Baidu starts internationalization strategy. In March 2007, the launch of Baidu’s Japanese search beta. In January 2008, Baidu Japan branch operations. At present, Baidu Japan in Japan and the United States have set up three wholly-owned subsidiary.

But it seems the process of internationalization of “repeated defeat of war” to describe. According to the source, 2010 Baidu net loss of 260 million yuan in overseas markets. From 2008 to 2010, Baidu three years cumulative losses of nearly $ 700 million in overseas markets.

Even if the poor record on July 4 this year came the Baidu and “Microsoft’s bing” the message of cooperation. Baidu will begin to provide English-language search service, hope for the internationalization of ex post facto.

 
Observers Peng Xiongjiang believes that this cooperation to “Microsoft bing” China market more help. Bing in the United States occupies about 30% of search share, but in China, no contribution selected in cooperation with Baidu, it can be considered Pong
As a “Mountain King”, identity is more like “Lady fortress”, how many have had some prestige; Baidu cooperation with Microsoft’s Bing, on the international market, it can be considered and “Lady” climbed the friendship, but English Bing search or
Xu is only for users in other parts of the world has a window open, from this window into what exactly “onlooker” also depends on: one, the user’s habits; second, Baidu search in English content – this requires Baidu
Also in the international market to be localized.

User habits change overnight. Users are used with Baidu in China, international users are used to with Google. Change needs a gradual
Gradual process. To change a user’s habits, Baidu search in English content be decisive. If Baidu Chinese search positioning uncertainty to international users with more informative, more accurate, more simple to use
Convenience to time from Google’s mouth eat not nothing is impossible. But this is only a hypothesis. To do this, Baidu search in English is a long way to go.

Study on the mechanism of the United States use of animal skin new camouflage material

According to United States Fox News recently reported that includes molluscs, squid, Octopus skin will quickly be consistent with the surrounding environment, thereby cleverly avoiding predator Hunt, thanks to has a unique vision on squid skin proteins. United States scientists plan to study this unique ability of squid, and produce similar material for human use.

Rice University, the University of Maryland and marine scientific research team of scientists of the research office focuses on the Visual protein to ascertain mollusc depending on how the protein of the skin to receive the light and to help them adjust skin mode. Depending on the protein is usually inside the eye to feel the effects of light, but in 2008, the scientists found that molluscs also contains proteins in the skin.

Mollusks “camouflage”, in addition to its enemy is very much in the sea, they are not born anti-chemical weapons, the only means of escape is to make themselves look like his own. But with the Chameleon by hormones to change the appearance of a different blood, mollusk by manufacturing camouflage colors of the nervous system, skin color from the surrounding environment to quickly make a consistent, this process may take a few seconds, a few minutes or even hours.

Mollusc itself does not have color vision, so how do they make “camouflage color” background color and fit perfectly? Scientists found that molluscs are included in the skin and in the retina of the same protein, this means that certain substances in the skin can detect light and respond to them.

Hand in hand, scientists are looking for Squid can detect different wavelengths of light as the proteins in the skin, at the same time clarify the molluscs such as protein in the body is built and how sensors are embedded in the materials so that people can use the animal in a manner to perceptual fiber and color, and so on.

Rice University engineers plan to use the members of the team of sidifen·linke manufacturing of nano-materials to build a new “camouflage” material, this material can be used with molluscs skin see light and quickly change colors in the same way.
