Flipboard on my Android – Finally! Hands On Review

Reading is mostly what large screen users do. Yup, the iPad and Tabs are heavily used for reading, and not just watching movies or videos, or an alternate for a full time laptop (let’s not forget they come very handy when sharing presentations).

How to Root your Android Device and its Benefits

You’ve got a new Android device ad you love it because it offers you so much flexibility, loads of free apps and customizations that you can do to it. But soon enough you realize that you’re using a stock version of the OS on your handset, which has certain limitations. These limitations won’t be apparent to a general user, but if you’re a hard core product destroyer like me, you’d want more power and the ability to resurrect your device if you have to. Don’t you?

Sleipnir Browser for iPhone and iPad is the Best Free Mobile Safari Alternative

Safari for iOS is undoubtedly the best browser on any mobile platform. Chrome Beta for Android comes close but it’s available to only a small minority of users and it’s still in beta.

Internet Explorer 9 might not be better than Google Chrome, but compared to its previous versions, it is a much better browser. It has a faster JavaScript engine, minimal chrome, efficient browsing, download manage and many other useful features. But sooner or later, it seems to become low for everyone.

You just don’t get the same performance as you had when you first installed Windows.

Steve Jobs Presentation Video from 1980 Shows His Forward Thinking On Computers, Hardware and Software

Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs has been a rare visionary in the world of computers. Like those around him such as Bill Gates, Steve Jobs forever changes how we see and use computers.

Google has shown off a rather ambitious project recently titled Project Glass. Using augmented reality concepts, this aims to take computing into the wearable format and of course, to become so personal that it knows everything about you. Creep, isn’t it? Well, no matter what you think of that aspect, Wired thinks that Google has gone overboard with their conceptual video for Project Glass. They’ve found out the opinions of a few augmented reality experts and found out that they have serious concerns over the real world feasibility of this project. Here’s what Blair Macintyre from Georgia Tech said:

There have been many peeks in various videos from the company for its products but this is an extensive look by Apple Gazette at the various parts of the Apple campus in Cupertino, California which most of us hadn’t seen before.
