The new Ekocycle Cube 3D Printer, which uses filament cartridges produced from three recycled 20 oz. PET plastic bottles, will cost around $1,200. This device supposedly has the durability of a standard 3-D printer filament. And it's made by Will..am, 3D Systems’ chief creative officer. According to 3D Systems, the new device is capable of printing objects up to six cubic inches wide in high-definition 70-micron resolution. Cartridges will only come in red, white, black and natural to start with, but will probably include more options in the future. Will.i.am has big plans for this model. He claims the objective is “to partner with the most influential brands around the world and use technology, art, style and inspiration to change an entire culture. We will make it cool to recyole, and we will make it cool to make products using recycled materials. This is the beginning of a more sustainable 3D-printed lifestyle. Waste is only waste if we waste it.” That seems to be a little ambitious for what's essentially an expensive gadget capable of e reproducing small objects. But then, 3-D printing experiments of entire houses have already started, so the technology is reaching its practical potential And it is undeniable that the new Ekocycle does look capable of generating some awesome objects. For now, you'll have to buy the cartridges directly from Cubify, which currently cost between $25 and $45 per kilogram. And since these are designer, celebrity-endorsed cartridges, they won't ever be cheap, though recycled materials claim to be less pricey. It might be some time until you can simply insert an old Coke bottle and pull out a few ping pong balls instead.

A social networking service is a platform which is used to build social relations among people who share common interests, activities, backgrounds or real-tife connections. Social networking sites such as Facebook, Googles, Instagram, Pinterest, and Twitter are used worldwide. Over the years, alternative sites have appeared such as Myspace and Linkedin, some of which were once very popular but then became less popular. They were not intended for the same kinds of people. Linkedin was created for professionals to exchange information among themselves, while Myspace and Facebook were aimed at promating more social interaction, although the people using Facebook tend to be older than those who use Myspace An interesting recent phenomenon is the influence that the Internet has had on the English language, by expanding English vocabulary - verbs are a good example of this. Now you can “google” something, or you can “facebook” your photos, which means uploading your photos on the Internet. In addition, you can “google” somebody to see who they are, or even facebook” them to see who their friends are, and whether you have any friends in common. You can also ask to “facebook” someone, which means asking them for permission to add them to your list of friends. Both Facebook and Myspace have become very versatile words, unlike Linkedin which has not yet reached the same status. Another change to the language is the distortion of existing words. So, while you're “facebooking” or “myspacing” you may also find yourself “commenting” which means writing a comment on someone's Facebook or Myspace page. These changes to the language are, of course, very normal, because a Language is a living thing which reflects and caters for people's needs to any specific time. [Adapted from: www.englishaula.com) Are these statements right (R) or wrong (W) according to the text? 1, Myspace users are normally younger than Facebook users. 2.
