Getting a tan is easy, especially if you use implants that give you temporary tan, but what if you want to protect yourself from UV rays? If you're not a fan of sunscreen then anti-UV pill might be the right thing for you.

Putting sunscreen on your skin can be a tedious process, but it's the only way to protect yourself from those nasty UV rays. However, scientists are working on a special pill that could protect you from UV rays, and we could see this anti-UV pill in five years' time. Inspiration for this anti-UV pill came from corals and their natural way to protect themselves from harmful UV rays, and scientist will probably try to simulate that process with this anti-UV pill for humans.

Anti-UV pill sounds incredible, but as you see, we probably won't see it anytime soon, especially with all medical concerns and risks. Who knows, maybe someday we won't have to use sunscreen anymore, and we'll completely rely on this pill for UV protection.

Windows 8 comes with native ISO and VHD support

We already wrote about Windows 8, and as you know, Windows 8 will have USB 3.0 support and it will also have improved file management, however, that's not all. According to the news, Windows 8 will also have native support for ISO and VHD files.

Working with ISO and VHD files has all sorts of advantages, but the only problem with Windows and ISO files is that you always have to use a third party software if you want to work with ISO files, therefore Microsoft decided to add a native support for ISO and VHD files in Windows 8. Now you'll be able to easily work with ISO files from Windows 8 itself, without the need for any additional software. In order to use ISO or VHD file, you just need to double click it, and it will be ready for use instantly.
