Welcome to KnowledgePop!
Sometimes, you just want to know what something is and what it does. You don't want to spend a half hour wading through a website.
The reason for this site is those just entering the world of technology, seniors, very young people, those re-entering the workforce, are pummeled with all these new tech terms. The rest of us have trouble keeping up, too!
Here, we give explanations of technology in five minutes or under, and we keep it simple.
It started with a friend of mine asking: how is AOL different from the Internet? Thus was born KnowledgePop!
Come back often. We add articles daily and later on, we'll expand beyond technology and add more categories.
Thanks for reading!

Netbook Sales Outpacing Sales of Traditional Notebook Computers
Netbook sales are taking off, according to a new report from DisplaySearch. The report indicates that Netbook revenues were up 37 percent over the same quarter last year and up 264 percent for the year. Revenues from larger notebook PCs were down. But portable notebooks with screens 13-16” showed growth as well.
The mini-note category, which includes Netbooks, now represents 22.2 percent of the portable PC shipments and 11.7 percent of revenues. The growth in Netbooks, says DisplaySearch, is owing to the low prices, which make them especially suitable as a second PC, and attractive to first-time buyers.
