Intel says it's developed a programmable processor that can perform about a trillion calculations per second. That's trillion with the T, a one followed by 12 zeros. Just to give you some perspective here. The company says it can put on a chip the size of a fingernail, the power that it took an entire data center to handle in 1996, a data center that took up an office the size of a house. And it only needs as much energy as a light bulb instead of the 500 kilowatts 1 of electricity for that old data center. Now, while the chip is still in the research phase, this is an important breakthrough. Intel says some uses for the chip could include artificial intelligence, 3D computers and real-time speech recognition. Melissa.

Let's continue to talk about technology and technological 2 changes. It seems that we often hear about new video-sharing sites and changes at them, and now I understand there're changes to YouTube.

That's right. The popular video site is now going to have a lot of more viewing options for users. YouTube is teaming up with the Digital Music Group to bring some popular classic TV shows to the web. Users can now see all-time TV favorites like " Gumby ", "My Favorite Martian" and" I, Spy". And here's the best of all, you can watch these shows for free. The deal will bring more than 4,000 hours of video content to the site.

Not only free. but you can actually see the entire episode which is quite a departure from the way YouTube normally does business.

Yeah, that's right. This is different from past deals which only clips of shows were posted on the site. And also both YouTube and Digital Music Group will share in the revenue generated through online commercials. The commercials will appear on the pages where the video actually plays. This makes some much more prominent than past advertising 3 on the site. And along with the TV shows, Digital Music Group will also offer its approximately 40,000 music recordings 4 to YouTube.

Stocks ended monthly lower today amid uncertainty 5 over Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke's upcoming testimony 6 to Congress and a sharp dip in oil prices.

Taking a look at the Big Board, the Dow dropped 28 points; the NASDAQ lost three-tenths of a percent on the day.
