My Content in Google Current
So I have created my first Google Current publication and I have to say that the process was quite smooth. A little bumps here and there as it’s brand new, but by and large, it was easy. So now, for those of you mobile folks out there who want to read my content, view my photos and videos, and interact with me in a whole new way, check out my Current publication!
Google Plus Reviewed
Over the last few days, lots of hype has been given to Google’s latest entry to the realm of social media — Google Plus (G+). I was lucky enough to have received an invite from some of my friends over at Lifehacker Wednesday evening, and have since been checking out this new service — and I must say I enjoy it. Is it the promised Facebook killer? Not yet. Does it have potential to be? I think so. Check out my full review after the break.
20 Must Have Android Apps! (vol 1)
Are you new to Android and want to know which apps you should actually install on your device? Look no further as I have compiled a list of what I believe are the best apps in their respective fields. I have installed and used every one of these apps and I must say that they make my life tremendously easier. Please note that this list is biased towards the apps I use in my life. Some of these may hold no relevance for you. There are tonnes of other lists like this on the web, so if none of these do it for you, check one of them out.
The list, after the jump.
Should I develop an app for Android?
Sales
As everyone has by now heard, Android sales have surpassed those of its rivals, Apple and Research in Motion (RIM Blackberry). What you probably have not heard is that this statement is only partially true. Yes, Android now enjoys a 31.2% market share compared to RIM’s 30.4 and Apple’s 24.7%.
What these figures don’t say is that these numbers are for the Operating System (Android) only. The handsets themselves are still ruled by RIM and Apple…mainly due to their lack of openness (they don’t allow their OS to be placed on other devices). However, what these companies lack in openness, they more than gain in consistency and ease of use in transition to the next version of the device…something that Android is still having growing pains with.
