When it comes to beauty nothing can beat the beauty of nature.
Although we, designers, can derive inspiration from almost everything,
nature often manages to provide us with beautiful eye-catching
perspectives we would never have explored otherwise. We have collected
hundreds of wallpapers already (see links below). In this post we would
like to focus on wallpapers which emphasize the variety and beauty of
nature.
This post showcases 50 remarkable nature desktop wallpapers.
This post covers various themes and subjects; we have included both
photographic and artistic (photo-manipulated) wallpapers. Hopefully,
everybody will find something from himself / herself.

Here are some of my favorites
Then of course there is nature in space if you will...
Hey.. I know they are wall papers and not icons web templates etc, but you have to take inspiration from somewhere!!
...caught my eye. In the last month, over 2300 people have accessed the S-R site using an iPhone with the Safari webbrowser. Three
months ago it was about 1000. Granted, this was only 0.20% of our
overall visitors, but as other manufacturers, besides Apple, release
wireless browsing devices, I believe these hits will really start to track up.For
years, technology wonks having been telling us pocket-sized wireless
devices will change the paradigm of how we receive and send
information. With last year’s iPhone and iPod Touch releases, I think
the hardware has finally caught up with the hype.
I have a Palm
Treo mobile phone running Microsoft software. A day doesn’t go by that
I’d rather throw the device under a moving bus than continue using it.
Clunky, unintuitive, fussy and damn right annoying are words to
describe my company issued cell phone. Connecting to the web is a joke.
Because it uses a touch screen and a real web browser, the iPhone fixes
most these usability issues. It also brings game to a constipated
wireless phone industry (at least in the U.S. market) in need of real
innovation.
Touch screens,
are finally starting to trickle down to other cell phone consumers.
These larger screen devices, meshed with wireless high-speed data
networks, will only move us further away from our reliance on desktop
and laptops computers.

We are almost there. Several years ago I dreamed of on hand held device that does IT ALL. Despite all the fancy gadgets we're not quite there yet, but we're close! And we do... I won't be able to afford it (wah wah wah wahhhh) - at least not right away.
They just need to marry these two or a similar couple, but it will take time to get them to mate out of the wild. Shhhh.
The Large
Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will produce more than 100 petabytes
of data when it goes on-line in 2014. All the non-pixel data will be
managed by a database. This database is expected to contain some 50
billion astronomical objects, 3 trillion detections of those objects,
and all the project’s metadata; a single copy will amount to tens of
petabytes.
We explain the proposed LSST database architecture, which provides scalability by building on top of
MySQL. The architecture is generic, and, once built, it could be used
by others who need to manage extremely large databases.
The departure of Gates, who will remain the company's non-
executive chairman, coincides with an escalating rivalry with
Google Inc (GOOG.O: Quote, Profile, Research) and other competitors who are using the
Internet to chip away at Microsoft's software dominance.
With Gates taking a step back, the weight of Microsoft's
future falls squarely on Ballmer's shoulders.

"Microsoft just hasn't come up with anything all that
innovative," said Andrew Loechl, director at Eagle Harbor Asset
Management. "It's been buying up companies left and right for
years, but it has not come up with anything internally."
