<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">With Ice Cream Sandwich, Google is hoping to make its Android
operating system more polished and approachable without sacrificing the
power or versatility that gave the OS its geek cred. Yes, the new Roboto
font is slick, but there are some pretty major upgrades under the hood.
Multitasking has improved; there’s a new-and-improved People app; and
you can even unlock your phone with your face. To give you a taste of
Ice Cream Sandwich’s most important new features, we took the software
for a test drive on the brand new Samsung Galaxy Nexus.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>1. </b><b>Front buttons go bye-bye</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">Ice
Cream Sandwich forgoes the need for physical Back, Home, Menu and
Search buttons by integrating a new System Bar at the bottom of the
screen. There’s three persistent virtual buttons here (Back, Home and
Recent Apps), while ICS exposes more menu options within a separate
Action Bar. Its location varies on the app and includes a search button.
We appreciate that the OS provides increased real estate for content,
but miss being able to press and hold the search button from any screen
to launch Google Voice Actions.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>2. </b><b>Multitasking better than iOS</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">That
Recent Apps button really comes in handy, displaying thumbnails of open
apps in a vertical stack that you can easily scroll through. Even
better, you can just swipe an app off the screen to close it. This
approach is more straightforward than the iPhone, which forces you to
double tap the home button and then press and hold an app icon before
closing it.</span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: black; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;">
<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>3. </b><b>Face unlock </b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">There’s probably no easier way to
unlock a phone than staring at it, and that’s exactly what Ice Cream
Sandwich lets you do. Setting up Face Unlock under settings was a cinch,
and it worked well most of the time. Just make sure you have enough
ambient light for the front-facing camera; we had to enter a pin as a
backup a few times when our Galaxy Nexus couldn’t recognize our mug.
Also keep in mind that you can fool the OS by holding up a picture of
yourself. Face Unlock is more of a convenience feature than a security
feature.</span></div>

<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>4. </b><b>Resizable widgets</b></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">Ice Cream Sandwich wants to put
widgets more front and center, which is why you see a Widgets tab when
you open the Apps menu. And just like on Honeycomb tablets, you can use
widgets scroll through content — like your calendar or inbox. Plus, you
can resize widgets just by pressing and holding on them and then
dragging any one of the corners.</span></div>

<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"> <b>5. </b><b>Killer camera app</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">Other Android phones offer this
feature, but we’re glad to see that Ice Cream Sandwich makes a Panorama
mode standard with its camera app. You just swivel your phone to left to
right and the software takes care of the rest. The OS also includes
robust editing capabilities, from auto-fix and cropping to a wide range
of special effects.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>6. </b><b>Notifications clean up their act</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">While we like that
Android phones let you see notifications with a swipe down from the
screen — Apple copied it for a reason — Ice Cream Sandwich makes it
easier to manage them. You can dismiss individual notifications by just
swiping them off the screen, as opposed to needing to clear them all at
once. You can also dive into settings from this menu with a tap.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>7.</b><b> People app gives contacts a makeover</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">A new People
app in Ice Cream Sandwich is more inviting than your typical address
book, providing a large profile along with social networking
integration. We liked being able to swipe to the right while viewing a
contact to see Google+ updates and Twitter updates from that person in a
single stream. Too bad Google hasn’t added Facebook yet.</span></div>

<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>8. </b><b>Respond to calls with a text</b> </span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">Android
Ice Cream Sandwich makes it easy to ignore incoming calls without being
rude. If you’re too busy to answer, just swipe up and you’ll see a list
of canned text messages you can tap. Choices include “Can’t talk right
now. What’s up?” and “I’ll call you right back.” You can also create a
custom message on the fly. Pretty convenient.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"><b>9. </b><b>Just beam it</b></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">This feature will take a while to take
off, but we love the idea. Provided your Ice Cream Sandwich phone has an
NFC (near field communications) chip inside, you can transmit info to
other phones running the latest Android OS just by touching the two
together. With Android Beam you can share anything from contacts and Web
pages to apps and YouTube videos. Beam will get even better once
developers get their hands on Google’s code.</span></div>

<div style="color: #cc0000;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>10. Better Web browsing</b></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;">The new browser in Ice Cream
Sandwich is not only faster than its predecessor, it lets you open up
to 16 browser tabs at once. You can also sync bookmarks from your Google
Chrome account. Tired of getting served mobile versions of your
favorite sites? Just check the Request desktop site option. Offline
reading lets users save specific Web pages for reading without a
connection. Unfortunately, Flash support isn’t coming until later this
year.</span></div>

A new study released by NASA provides further evidence that greenhouse gases are the main driving force behind global warming.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; orphans: 2; outline: 0px none; padding: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">
The study looked at the planet's energy imbalance, which calculates the difference between the amount of solar energy absorbed by the surface of the Earth and the amount that's sent back to space as heat. According to the calculations derived from the study, between 2005 and 2010 the Earth absorbed more heat than it gave off, in spite of lower than usual solar activity.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; orphans: 2; outline: 0px none; padding: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">
When the imbalance is positive — that is, when the planet absorbs more heat than it gives off — it means that global temperatures are growing warmer.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; orphans: 2; outline: 0px none; padding: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">
"The fact that we still see a positive imbalance despite the prolonged solar minimum isn't a surprise given what we've learned about the climate system," explained James Hansen, director of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies. "But it's worth noting because this provides unequivocal evidence that the sun is not the dominant driver of global warming,"</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px none; color: #666666; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; orphans: 2; outline: 0px none; padding: 0px; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">
The data was gathered using a network of floating temperature monitoring devices, which NASA has dubbed Argo. The data gathered from the 3,400 floats was then combined with ground-based and satellite data to form the basis of the study.</div>

</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">A computer worm has stolen more than 45,000 <span class="tpk">Facebook</span> login credentials, leaving users wonder how they can protect their accounts and personal info from future cyber attacks.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div class="content2" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">According to Israeli security management Web site Seculert, a "Ramnit" virus stole the login data for 45,000 <span class="tpk">Facebook</span> users in the <span class="tpk">United Kingdom</span> and France.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">"Recently, our research lab identified a completely new 'financial' Ramnit variant aimed at stealing Facebook login credentials. Since the Ramnit Facebook C&C URL is visible and accessible it was fairly straightforward to detect that over 45,000 Facebook login credentials have been stolen worldwide, mostly from users in the <span class="tpk">United Kingdom</span> and France," Seculert said on its company Web site. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The stolen credentials were used to spread the virus to other friends and to even attack the victim's other web-based services, as many users use the same passwords for other services like their e-mail accounts and other social media sites.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">According to <span class="tpk">Microsoft</span>, the Ramnit virus is "a multi-component malware family which infects Windows executable as well as HTML files" in addition to stealing stored FTP credentials and cookies from Web browsing.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">Ramnit, according to PC World, is a two-year-old worm that has become more of a threat since it recently began to use borrowed code from malware Zeus, infecting about 800,000 machines worldwide in the past few months.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">Seculert said it gave all pertinent data regarding the Ramnit virus to Facebook, including all stolen credentials found on the servers.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">"Our security experts have reviewed the data, and while the majority of the information was out of date, we have initiated remedial steps for all affected users to ensure the security of their accounts," a Facebook representative told ZD Net.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">"Thus far, we have not seen the virus propagating on Facebook itself, but have begun working with our external partners to add protections to our antivirus systems to help users secure their devices."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">While social networks have the power to virally transfer information and communicate with others on a large scale, viruses can spread just as fast as sending a simple Hello to a friend. So how do you protect yourself and secure yourself from harmful viruses like the Ramnit, which anti-virus software Symantec reported accounted for 17.3 of all malicious software infections?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">Facebook said while the social networking Web site is currently adding additional antivirus software protection, users should never click on any strange links or tagged posts from untrusted sources. Facebook also recommended reporting suspicious activity directly to Facebook security and to join the Facebook Security page for the most up-to-date security updates about potential threats and viruses.</span><br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">In the age of digital photos, photo scanners are still around largely because most of us—or our parents and grandparents—have collections of old film-based photos. Most people would like to get those photos scanned, if they could only figure out how. If that's the boat you're in, here are some tips that can help. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">1. Face Reality.</b> Scanning photos is a time-intensive operation. Almost anything that speeds it up (other than buying a faster scanner) lowers scan quality. So pick the level of quality you want, and then accept the amount of work that comes with it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">2. Know Your Classes of Scanners.</b> If you're still looking for a scanner, the balance of scan quality and ease of use should be your key concern. Unfortunately, the scanners that are easiest to use tend to have the lowest quality. That said, if you'll be satisfied with scans that are suitable for viewing onscreen or reprinting at the same size—although with noticeable color shifts and loss of resolution—consider using an inexpensive sheet fed scanner like the Kodak P461 Personal Photo Scanner ($139.99 direct, 4 stars). These scanners make all the settings decisions for you so all you have to do is feed the photos through a slot.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> For quality suitable for just about anyone but a pro or prosumer, consider an inexpensive flatbed scanner, like the Editors' Choice Epson Perfection V300 Photo ($99.99 direct, 4 stars). For still better quality, consider a more expensive flatbed, like the Epson Perfection V700 Photo ($550 street, 4 stars). Also keep in mind that for the best quality, you should skip the printed photo, and scan the original negative instead, if it's available, preferably with a scanner like the V700, which can scan 12 slides at once.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">3. Scanners on MFPs Aren't Great.</b> Most MFPs are aimed at scanning documents and are best avoided for photo scanning. You can recognize the few exceptions by options in their scan utilities that are clearly meant for photos, like a color restore feature. Even for those, however, don't expect great quality. The best MFPs we've seen at PC Labs are in the same class as an inexpensive flatbed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">4. Choose a WIA or TWAIN Scan Drivers.</b> Many scanners give you the choice of scanning with a separate scan utility or by calling up a driver from a program -- using PhotoShop's File | Import command, for example. In most cases the interface and setting options are the same either way, so it doesn't matter which approach you take. However, you may also have the choice between using a WIA driver or a Twain driver. If so, the Twain driver will almost always give you far more control over the scan settings and better results even with the default settings.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">5. Auto Mode Can Be Your Friend.</b><span style="color: #6aa84f;"> </span>Most scan utilities include an automatic or nearly automatic mode, the scanner equivalent of using a point and shoot camera. If you're in hurry or know nothing about scanning, the auto mode will usually provide reasonably good quality and may be all you need.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">6. Finetune with Advanced Modes.</b> If you want the best possible quality from your scanner, explore the advanced modes in your scan utility. The best way to get a feel for any given option is to scan the same image with different settings and compare results. For many settings, you won't even have to scan repeatedly. Simply do a preview scan, change the settings, and you'll see the effect on the preview image.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">7. Use Restore for Scanning Faded Photos.</b><span style="color: #6aa84f;"> </span>Most scan utilities offer a color restore option for restoring color to faded photos. Most often, there's more than one setting, so you can pick the one that matches the level of fading. If your scan utility doesn't offer color restore, you'll have to fix the color in a photo editing program instead, which is usually much harder to do.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">8. Clean Up Dust and Scratches.</b> Many scanners offer digital dust and scratch removal features. Software based versions typically do some good for removing dust specks, but don't do much for scratches. Hardware-based features, like Digital ICE, do a much better job, but add to the price of the scanner. If your scanner doesn't offer a good quality dust removal feature, blowing the dust off your photos before scanning with canned air takes a lot less time than manually removing dust specks in a photo editing program later.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">9. Fix the Lighting with Backlight Correction.</b> Some scan utilities offer backlight correction. This can automatically improve photos that were shot with a bright light behind the subject, like someone standing in front of a window or with the sun over his or her shoulder. If your scan utility has the feature, it's well worth using for badly lit photos. Keep in mind, though, that some photos may be intentionally shot with backlighting for effect—to get a silhouette for example. So don't use the feature unless there's a reason to. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">10. Scan Multiple Photos with Batch mode.</b> Also look for a batch mode, which lets you place multiple photos on the flatbed at once and have the scan utility automatically put each one in its own file. In most cases, you can run a preview scan and adjust scan settings separately for each photo before giving the scan command.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">11. Picking a Resolution Is Important.</b> The basic rule for resolution is simple. For printers whose resolution is a multiple of 300 dots per inch (dpi) nothing over 300 pixels per inch for the photo will make any difference when you print, and even 200 ppi looks almost as good. So for anything you may print at the same size, set the scan resolution for at least 200 ppi and no higher than 300 ppi. For printers whose resolution is a multiple of 360 dpi, the equivalent scan resolutions are 360 ppi and 240 ppi.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> If you think you might crop the image or print it at larger size, scan it at a resolution that will give you at least 200 (or 240) ppi after it's enlarged. For a 4 by 6 that you might print at 8 by 10, for example, 8 divided by 4 is 2. So if you want 200 ppi when you print at 8 inches, you need to scan at 400 ppi.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> If you never expect to enlarge the image or even print it, 72 ppi is fine for viewing on screen.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f;">12. Scanning Photos in an Album Can Be Done.</b> If the photos you want to scan are already mounted in an album, it's best to take them out before scanning. It's hard to get book pages to lie flat on a flatbed, and it's hard to get a good scan if the photos aren't flat. If you can take individual pages out of the binder, use your scan utility's batch mode if it has one, so you can scan the whole page at once. Otherwise, it's best to take each photo out of the album, scan it, and then remount it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> If the photos are permanently mounted, and the pages won't come out, try scanning with the scanner close to the edge of the desk or table it's on. Put one page of the album as flat as possible on the flatbed, and let the facing page and cover hang straight down along the side of the desk or table.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">With barely a thousand apps on board, Barnes & Noble's app store is puny compared to the Amazon Appstore, which launched in March with 3,800 apps on board. But of the slim pickings in the Nook app store most are useful, high-quality ones that show off the new Nook Tablet's ($249) and Nook Color's gorgeous high-resolution, 7-inch LCD multi-touch display.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> The Nook Tablet, like the Amazon Kindle Fire, runs a very highly customized version of Android 2.3 on a TI OMAP4, 1GHz dual-core processor, making it difficult to interchange apps between the two tablets without rooting them first. Furthermore the Nook's user interface looks nothing like Amazon's (or, for that matter, Android's).<br />
<br />
Furthermore unlike the Nook Tablet's popular rival, the Amazon Kindle Fire ($199, Editor's Choice), the Nook Tablet partitions 15GB of the 16GB of onboard RAM. In other words, you can only use this space to store content purchased from Barnes & Noble unless you buy an extra 32GB MicroSD card to sideload third-party apps. "Most of the app store is filled with games or children apps, but Barnes & Noble has said it will ramp up options in fashion, cooking, travel, and health over the next few months.<br />
<br />
Until then, we've gone through nearly every one to give you the 15 best apps in the Nook app store, a list that will hopefully expand as Barnes & Noble adds more. Whether you're a hardcore news junkie, a social networking nut, a type-A workaholic, a video game addict, an intellectual curioso, or all of the above, there's something for everyone here.<br />

Youngsters will benefit most from the function since they're more susceptible to permanent hearing damage, but the subtle design allows all ages to wear the ETY Kids 5 without embarrassment. </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid50EDQLKS-54QxD51wyJI6rQTh6s5DYykapYLUgoBQyrX4KcnoVxAB_AuiMaO9N7uLpwaDh6Y_EpvvqoYzg-cmkDjP3nAa5DFXWn4zypAV-KHBYN4_ZVEtPmbigFilZnGl5l8bnNiF48/s1600/etymotic-ety-kids-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid50EDQLKS-54QxD51wyJI6rQTh6s5DYykapYLUgoBQyrX4KcnoVxAB_AuiMaO9N7uLpwaDh6Y_EpvvqoYzg-cmkDjP3nAa5DFXWn4zypAV-KHBYN4_ZVEtPmbigFilZnGl5l8bnNiF48/s1600/etymotic-ety-kids-5.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Holiday shopping can be quite nerve-racking. You have to deal with crowds (and some shoving and pushing), wait in long lines, and, of course, there’s the inevitable fight over that last special something. And that’s just the start of it. Perhaps the biggest annoyance is that nagging “what if” that lingers in the back of your mind as you’re deciding whether or not to make your purchase: "What if I can get this for less somewhere else?" </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Five years ago, the only way you were able to compare prices while out shopping was to start up your phone and browse sites like Google and Amazon. Ten years ago the only way to do this was to write down the product name, drive home, and look the product up online. Twenty years ago, we were driving from store to store to compare prices. Thankfully, as we close in on 2012, things are much easier. Shoppers can simply scan a product's barcode using a smartphone app that pinpoints the lowest prices and shares ratings and reviews from other shoppers. Now there's no doubt that the blender on sale for $29.99 will make pitcher after pitcher of margaritas. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"> Our Thanksgiving leftovers in the fridge signify one thing: The busiest shopping time of the year is here. With Black Friday upon us, it's time to get serious about holiday shopping. To help you avoid the “what ifs,” we rounded up ten price-comparison apps for both Android and iOS phones, which should make your shopping experience a little easier. So, charge up those smartphones, hit the stores, and start scanning. </span><br />
<h3 style="color: #6aa84f;"><span style="font-size: large;">Amazon Price Check</span></h3><span style="font-size: large;"><span name="intellitxt"><b style="color: #a64d79;">Available On:</b> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=aw_ppricecheck_iphone_mobile" target="_blank">iPhone</a>, and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?docId=1000715211" target="_blank">Android</a> (free)<br />
<br />
Amazon's Price Check app can look up products by scanning a barcode; snapping a photo of a book, DVD, CD, or video game cover; or by a product name search. Users will only get Amazon's prices with this app. That being said, Amazon does have over 2 million online merchants, so there's a good chance they'll find a great deal. Once the product is scanned, users can read Amazon reviews, buy the product, and add it to their wish list. Price Check also features Amazon's Deal of the Day, as well as its Lightning Deals offers, which change multiple times a day. Amazon customers can sign in with their account info and view personal recommendations for each department. Note: One-Click purchasing is automatically turned on, so make sure to disable it to avoid accidentally clicking the "Buy Now" button and instantly purchasing the product. </span></span><br />

<a href="http://barcodehero.com/public_feed" target="_blank">Barcode Hero</a> is a community-oriented app based on a point system. Users scan a product they own and share their opinion with other Barcode Hero users. The more users share, the more points they earn and Barcode Hero encourages users to share their reviews with their Facebook friends and Twitter followers. This can elevate a user's status, making him or her more or less as an expert in certain fields. For example, a user that constantly rates and reviews wine might be seen as the go-to person to follow for wine recommendations. When users are shopping, they simply scan a barcode and, if any other members have rated it, they can see if the product is worth buying. Besides checking the product with other users, Barcode Hero also checks prices at online retailers like Amazon, Buy.com, and Nordstrom. The app lets users create wish lists and share them with friends and family members, as well as keep track of items to buy later. </span></span><br />

<h3 style="color: #6aa84f;"><span style="font-size: large;">Goodzer</span></h3><span style="font-size: large;"><span name="intellitxt"><b style="color: #a64d79;">Available On:</b> <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/goodzer/id405781212?mt=8" target="_blank">iPhone</a> (free)<br />
<br />
Sure, having the option to buy a product for less online is great, but what about when you need a product right away? If you're looking for a particular product but don't know where to buy it, Goodzer can help. For example, if a recipe calls for a vanilla bean and you're unsure where to buy one—as most grocery stores don't have them on hand—you can search for vanilla bean and Goodzer will map out the closest stores with vanilla beans. If you are able to wait for a product to be delivered, Goodzer can also show you where you can buy it online. If you don't have an iPhone, you can check out <a href="http://goodzer.com/" target="_blank">Goodzer.com</a>. The nice thing about Goodzer is that it does more than just list the products sold at major retailers; it also lists small stores and boutiques that you otherwise might overlook. After doing a few test searches, we have to admit that it's not perfect, but Goodzer is definitely worth checking out. Our search for vanilla beans showed a lot more results than our search for bundt pans did, so it may be more helpful for some products more than others. It's also recommended to call the store to make sure they have the product Goodzer claims it does before making a special trip out for it. </span></span><br />

<br />
<a href="http://www.google.com/mobile/shopper/" target="_blank">Google Shopper</a> is one of the most comprehensive comparison shopping apps around. Sure, it scans the barcode of almost any product, but it also lets you scan the covers of books, CDs, DVD, or video games just by pointing your phone's camera at the product. For hands-free search, users can simply say the name of a product and Google's voice search will find it in Shopper. Once users have found an item within the app, they can find the product at various sellers online, complete with seller ratings. Users can also locate the item at nearby stores, read reviews of the product, and read details about the product, including a description, related products, specifications, and videos. Google Shopper is also connected to <a href="http://www.google.com/offers/customer/how-it-works.html" target="_blank">Google Offers</a>—daily local deals available in select cities—so users can purchase a Google Offer right within Google Shopper. The app can also keep a list of products scanned and be used to create a shopping list. </span></span><br />

In fact, RedLaser's technology is so advanced that many other barcode scanning mobile apps are using the RedLaser SDK. With RedLaser, users can check for the best prices by scanning a product's barcode or QR code. The app searches thousands of online and local retailers and provides results from shopping sites such as Google, TheFind, eBay, Milo, Half.com, and more. With RedLaser's list feature, users can create shopping or wish lists and then share them through Facebook, SMS, or email. The app also features comprehensive reviews, courtesy of alaTest, which is built right into the app. If the user enables location tracking, RedLaser can also recommend local stores where the scanned product can be purchased. </span></span><br />

<br />
For those bookworms that would rather check out a book from the library than purchase it, RedLaser will inform users of any libraries nearby that have a copy of the book. The app also lets users scan an item and save it for later. Perhaps there's a pair of boots you can't afford at the moment but want to remember. RedLaser can email you the items that you want to check out at a later date. Unrelated to pricing but still a neat feature, RedLaser can provide allergen information and nutritional facts powered by FoodEssentials and DailyBurn for almost every brand-name packaged food in the United States. We tried it on our Kashi cereal and immediately got results. This feature could be helpful if you're looking to buy your lactose-intolerant friend a holiday treat and want to check for dairy. </span></span><br />

<br />
One of the oldest barcode scanner apps, <a href="http://shopsavvy.mobi/" target="_blank">ShopSavvy</a> not only searches for products using barcodes, it also allows users to input keywords. The app is community-powered, so if ShopSavvy is missing a barcode, users can add it into the system. If users find a better price listed on the app than the product they scanned in the store, they can buy it directly from ShopSavvy Wallet, ShopSavvy's merchant ecommerce site that stores users' credit card info for quick and easy purchasing. Users can also save the product's info to buy it online later. ShopSavvy lets users know if the product is available at local merchants and if they offer price matching. If there's a blue dot by the merchant, it means the product is in stock. </span></span><br />

Looking for an extra good deal? ShopSavyy has an entire deals section, with shipping promos, coupon codes, rebates, weekend sales, and more. It also shows users the local Groupon offer of the day. The ShopSavvy homepage is constantly updated with local searches from other users nearby, so the screen is always moving as more deals are scanned around you, a feature that some may find annoying. </span></span><br />

<h3 style="color: #6aa84f;"><span style="font-size: large;">Smoopa</span></h3><span style="font-size: large;"><span name="intellitxt"><b style="color: #a64d79;">Available On:</b> <a href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.smoopa.client.android" target="_blank">Android</a> (free)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.smoopa.com/" target="_blank">Smoopa</a> works similarly to other barcode scanner apps. The user scans a product barcode while at a store, enters the price of the item, and selects the store. The app then compares it with other prices in its database from Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Sears, Kmart, Office Depot, OfficeMax, CompUSA, TigerDirect, Buy.com, and more. Once compared, Smoopa shows a green or yellow button, signifying whether the user can save money by price matching (yellow), or whether it's a good price and the user should buy it (green). Users will need to sign up for a free account to use the app. </span></span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6cikH_joA9ahPLDiOnBE9V-NagzDeqVDf6ztgMgNlT6kWz5XDC9XzZ-JgmzU7VeDcrLyAQbpr4XcgUfR8O4rSLgx3kDNnlninmR0BONYy8J5tPkTqiY58PiGLC891dgqrtAnHTvEX0tI/s1600/smoopa.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6cikH_joA9ahPLDiOnBE9V-NagzDeqVDf6ztgMgNlT6kWz5XDC9XzZ-JgmzU7VeDcrLyAQbpr4XcgUfR8O4rSLgx3kDNnlninmR0BONYy8J5tPkTqiY58PiGLC891dgqrtAnHTvEX0tI/s1600/smoopa.jpg" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;"><span name="intellitxt"><br />
<br />
Smoopa can also track a product and send alerts to the user if the price drops below a specified amount. For example, if a user wants a new iPod touch but wants to wait until it's $100, he or she can set Smoopa up to track the prices and receive alerts when, if ever, it hits that price. Smoopa also rewards people for using the app with giftcards, rebate checks, and donations to charity. The more people use Smoopa, the more rewards they'll earn. </span></span><br />

<h3 style="color: #6aa84f;"><span style="font-size: large;">SnapTell</span></h3><span style="font-size: large;"><span name="intellitxt"><b style="color: #a64d79;">Available On:</b> <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/app/snaptell/id291920403?mt=8" target="_blank">iPhone</a> and <a href="https://market.android.com/details?id=com.snaptell.mobile.client.android&hl=en" target="_blank">Android</a><br />
<br />
With SnapTell, users can snap a photo of any book, DVD, CD, or video game and immediately get a rating, a description, and links to Google, YouTube, Wikipedia, Rotten Tomatoes, IMDB, Barnes & Noble, and more. The IMBD and Rotten Tomatoes integration is especially neat, since shoppers can find ratings about movies before they buy them. The app also allows users to scan UPC and EAN barcodes. Our only qualm is that the ratings and descriptions aren't shown within the app; SnapTell takes you to the respective sites to view the information. There's also no way to see a full list of comparison prices; users must click into each site separately to see the prices. If users need a product in a hurry, SnapTell can tell them where to find it locally. </span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The iPhone has always been pretty good about battery life, particularly in terms of standby time, but something changed recently—and in a big way. Reports are all over the Web about how <a href="http://latest-hitech-news.blogspot.com/2011/10/apple-iphone-4s-new-features.html" target="_blank">iPhone 4S</a> owners in particular have noticed vastly reduced standby time compared to older iPhones, on the order of 10 to 15 percent reductions per hour, although other people are saying they don't see a problem at all.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> It turns out there <i>is</i> something to this story, though: Apple has confirmed that a bug in <a href="http://latest-hitech-news.blogspot.com/2011/10/top-10-new-features-in-ios-5.html" target="_blank">iOS 5</a>, not the iPhone 4S itself, is responsible for the poor battery life many people are seeing, and said that a fix is in the works. It turns out that the iOS 5 bug means you'll also see the problem with an older iPhone, or possibly even an iPad or iPod touch, if you install the new OS on it.<br />
<br />
Already have iOS 5? Here are six things you can do right now to boost your iPhone's battery life.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f;">1. Set time zones manually.</b> This time around, by default, iOS 5 tries to auto-adjust your time zone based on repetitive calls to the GPS radio, which is a huge battery drain. For now, turn this off: head to Settings -> Location Services -> System Services (which is located all the way at the bottom) -> Setting Time Zone. Note that this setting isn't in the Date & Time section, which makes it tough for people to find.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f;">2. Disable location services when not needed.</b> You can also disable all Location Services, which is a good rule in general for conserving battery life, but you'll need to re-enable it for GPS navigation and other tasks as necessary.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f;">3. Disable as many notifications as possible.</b> Notifications were a battery drain with earlier versions of the OS; I usually kept them turned off on test handsets, and saw several days of standby time on a charge even with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS enabled. The new iOS 5 has a completely different notification system, with an Android-style pull-down bar at the top that collects multiple notifications and organizes them. In the process of adding this, Apple removed the global notification toggle in the Settings menu, so you can't just disable them all in one shot anymore. You can, however, disable app notifications, while leaving important ones (such as text and voicemail) intact. In other words, you can turn it back into an approximation of the original system, which separated call notifications from app notifications automatically.<br />
<br />
<br />
To do this, head to Settings -> Notifications, tap a given category (Phone, Messages, Reminders) or app (Walgreens, Zillow, and so on), and toggle Notification Center at the top to Off. The fewer notifications you enable, the more standby time you should see. While you're in there, note that you can change the way they appear; you can return a given notification to an alert window in the center of the screen, the way it used to be, instead of with the new bar on top.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f;">4. Check for e-mail manually.</b> E-mail is another perennial battery drain; normally I set all accounts to receive updates manually (i.e. when I load the app), instead of at a set frequency or via "push." The same goes for Facebook and Twitter updates; if the app is constantly refreshing them in the background, it's hitting the radios and consuming power, and you're not even reading them.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f;">5. Check for software updates.</b> Right now, iOS 5.0 is still current, but be aware that there's a different procedure now: You can check for OS updates right from the phone, instead of using a USB cable and syncing with iTunes. Head to Settings -> General -> Software Update. Apple recently sent iOS 5.0.1 to developers, according to <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/11/02/apple-releases-ios-5-0-1-to-developers-here-are-the-changes/" target="_blank">BGR</a>; updates include bug fixes for battery life, among other things. Keep an eye on PCMag for the latest news on iOS updates as well.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f;">6. Some minor things can still help.</b> Finally, you can still do all the usual, old-school things to improve battery life, such as reducing screen brightness, disabling Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and so on. The only one that really helps here, in my experience, is screen brightness, but you need it cranked to see the Retina Display in bright sunlight. This was never a big issue with the iPhone, though; the above tips, plus an eventual bug fix from Apple, should resolve the vast majority of battery life issues with iOS 5.</span></div></div>Love Ur Lifehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04268769001521004270noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144574637699802289.post-63587969765518360202011-12-01T05:44:00.000-08:002011-12-01T05:48:29.623-08:0050 GB Free Storage for Android-Based LG Phones<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN2uJdzz-IfJFqMP2Ba2fH06twteNTdyoHNy0H6qTlrhhJ38_LqNlIr0XLU9rCrmWLp9WrRXzKMK3U86wXZHNb2IDl5qL9XEi5QD9oMLbByEzvOB51wxZY6LaeZtDshHTMaqOecUl0WRo/s1600/lg_optimus_android.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN2uJdzz-IfJFqMP2Ba2fH06twteNTdyoHNy0H6qTlrhhJ38_LqNlIr0XLU9rCrmWLp9WrRXzKMK3U86wXZHNb2IDl5qL9XEi5QD9oMLbByEzvOB51wxZY6LaeZtDshHTMaqOecUl0WRo/s400/lg_optimus_android.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Web storage company Box has inked a deal with LG to offer 50 Gbytes of free cloud storage to the company's Android users.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> LG mobile phone users can download the Box App now from the Android Market, which will offer up the 50GB automatically. Users who have signed up on the Box.net Web site (and received 5GB of free storage) or those who have already downloaded the Box app will be upgraded to 50GB when they update their app on an LG device.<br />
<br />
Box will be offering the storage boost until March 31, but those who upgrade will have those 50GB for life.<br />
<br />
The app works on devices running Android 2.1 that have a display resolution of 320-by-480 or higher. <a href="http://www.box.com/features/mobile/" target="_blank">Features include</a> the ability to upload files and view and share files on the go.<br />
<br />
Users can view, upload, and share their content from anywhere, Box said. 50GB is equivalent to about 50,000 docs, photos and presentations.<br />
<br />
Box ran a similar promotion for iOS devices and within the first five days, more than one million people downloaded the app and upgraded to 50GB. The company offered the same thing on the ill-fated HP TouchPad; Android is the third platform on which Box is extending the 50GB promo.<br />
<br />
With Box, "you don't have to be shackled by the constraints of the antiquated systems that have been out there for so long," said Robin Daniels, director of product market strategy at Box. "If you look at who we're really trying to replace here, it's the antiquated [Microsoft] SharePoints of the world."<br />
<br />
"The new world is a world of mobility; there's a revolution happening," Daniels continued.<br />
<br />
Individual consumers have taken advantage of Box's 50GB offer, but "we're really seeing a huge uptake and a huge interest in companies," Daniels said. Many in the enterprise are "frustrated with not being able to access their files ... and now there's a better way to do that."</span></div></div>Love Ur Lifehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04268769001521004270noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144574637699802289.post-81579439167559022152011-11-29T06:16:00.000-08:002011-11-29T06:16:56.645-08:00Cycle Without Spokes<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzj1bzZQPjuLpPUrIlPnvTzWLQ5ymSz4aGsUjgL9M868pAIFnyn09TVLVZm4nF1eMxVEEmQLcnFpDHZn5GpXXmL4g_ai8lL8AJ9C29ojn-OBf2_VFS24t9ixFjWj5z8r4rT5zD_GF6M9g/s1600/lunartic+without+spokes+cycle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzj1bzZQPjuLpPUrIlPnvTzWLQ5ymSz4aGsUjgL9M868pAIFnyn09TVLVZm4nF1eMxVEEmQLcnFpDHZn5GpXXmL4g_ai8lL8AJ9C29ojn-OBf2_VFS24t9ixFjWj5z8r4rT5zD_GF6M9g/s1600/lunartic+without+spokes+cycle.jpg" /></a></div><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This bike has a really unique combination of different wheel sizes,Toothed belt drives and a hub less rear wheel! The USP being the gyroscopic effect of a large wheel aiding speed and more road-surface contact adding stability. The small front wheel saves space and enhances maneuverability.Hope you guys enjoy the video!The Lunartic Cycle is an entry for the James Dyson Awards.</span><br />

</div><div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">A US-based team of scientists claims to have invented a material that releases over two weeks of night-vision light after just one minute's exposure to the sun.</span></div><div class="introduction" id="story_continues_1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Let's face it, there's every reason in the world to shop online. The bargains are there. The selection is mind-boggling. The shopping is secure. Shipping is fast. Even returns are pretty easy, with the right e-tailers. Shopping has never been easier or more convenient for consumers.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> But what about the bad guys who lay in wait? <a href="http://www.internetidentity.com/images/stories/docs/ecrime_trends_report-q3-2011_by_iid.pdf" target="_blank">IID's Third Quarter eCrime Report for 2011 </a>indicates that use of phishing attacks (where thieves attempt to swindle you out of your sign-in credentials and even credit card info by pretending to be a real website, or even an online bank) is down, as much as eight percent since the second quarter and 11 percent since the third quarter of last year. That's great news—except the same report says sites with malware (malicious code aimed at compromising your privacy) has increased by 89 percent since the second quarter.<br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Stay calm. While somewhat alarming, these stats should not keep you from shopping online. You simply need some common sense and practical advice. Follow these basic guidelines and you can shop online with confidence. Here are 11 tips for staying safe online, so you can start checking off items on that holiday shopping list.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">1. Use Familiar Websites</b><br />
Start at a trusted site rather than shopping with a search engine. Search results can be rigged to lead you astray, especially when you drift past the first few pages of links. If you know the site, chances are it's less likely to be a rip off. We all know Amazon.com and that it carries everything under the sun; likewise, just about every major retail outlet has an online store, from Target to Best Buy to Home Depot. Beware of misspellings or sites using a different top-level domain (.net instead of .com, for example)—those are the oldest tricks in the book. Yes, the sales on these sites might look enticing, but that's how they trick you into giving up your info.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">2. Look for the Lock</b><br />
Never ever, ever buy anything online using your credit card from a site that doesn't have SSL (secure sockets layer) encryption installed—at the very least. You'll know if the site has SSL because the URL for the site will start with HTTPS:// (instead of just HTTP://). An icon of a locked padlock will appear, typically in the status bar at the bottom of your web browser, or right next to the URL in the address bar. It depends on your browser.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Never, ever give anyone your credit card over email. Ever.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: #6aa84f;"> </span></b></span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">3. Don't Tell All</b><br />
No online shopping store needs your social security number or your birthday to do business. However, if crooks get them, combined with your credit card number for purchases, they can do a lot of damage. The more they know, the easier it is to steal your identity. When possible, default to giving up the least amount of information.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">4. Check Statements</b><br />
Don't wait for your bill to come at the end of the month. Go online regularly during the holiday season and look at electronic statements for your credit card, debit card, and checking accounts. Make sure you don't see any fraudulent charges, even originating from sites like PayPal. (After all, there's more than one way to get to your money.)</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you do see something wrong, pick up the phone to address the matter quickly. In the case of credit cards, pay the bill only once you know all your charges are accurate. You have 30 days to notify the bank or card issuer of problems, however; after that, you might be liable for the charges anyway.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">5. Inoculate Your PC</b><br />
Swindlers don't just sit around waiting for you to give them data; sometimes they give you a little something extra to help things along. You need to protect against malware with regular updates to your anti-virus program. PCMag recommends Webroot SecureAnywhere Antivirus (4.5 stars, Editors' Choice, $39.95 direct), which has extras to help fight ID theft, or at the very least the free Ad-Aware Free Internet Security 9.0 (4.5 stars, Editors' Choice).</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">6. Use Strong Passwords</b><br />
We like to beat this dead horse about making sure to utilize uncrackable passwords, but it's never more important than when banking and shopping online. Our tips for <a href="http://latest-hitech-news.blogspot.com/2011/11/how-to-create-strong-passwords.html">creating a unique password</a> can come in handy during a time of year when shopping around probably means creating new accounts on all sorts of e-commerce sites.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> <b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">7. Think Mobile</b><br />
The <a href="http://www.nrf.com/modules.php?name=News&op=viewlive&sp_id=1225" target="_blank">National Retail Federation says </a>that 5.7 percent of adults will use their mobile devices to do comparison shopping before making a purchase. (And 32.1 percent will comparison shop online with a computer, as well.) There's no real need to be any more nervous about shopping on a mobile device than online. The trick is to use apps provided directly by the retailers, like Amazon, Target, etc. Use the apps to find what you want and then make the purchase directly, without going to the store or the website.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">8. Avoid Public Terminals</b><br />
Hopefully we don't have to tell you it's a bad idea to use a public computer to make purchases, but we still will. If you do, just remember to log out every time you use a public terminal, even if you were just checking email.<br />
<br />
What about using your own laptop to shop while you're out? It's one thing to hand over a credit card to get swiped at the checkout, but when you must enter the number and expiration date on a website while sitting in a public cafe, you're giving an over-the-shoulder snooper plenty of time to see the goods. At the very least, think like a gangster: Sit in the back, facing the door.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">9. Privatize Your Wi-Fi</b><br />
If you do decide to go out with the laptop to shop, you'll need a Wi-Fi connection. Only use the wireless if you access the Web over a virtual private network (VPN) connection. If you don't get one from your employer, you can set up a free one with <a href="http://anchorfree.com/downloads/hotspot-shield/" target="_blank">AnchorFree Hotspot Shield</a>, if you're willing to put up with the ads, or pay $4.99 a month or $44.99 a year to skip the ads. There's even an iOS app version of Hotspot Shield, but that will cost you $.99 per month or $9.99 a year after the first seven days.<br />
<br />
By the way, now is <i>not</i> a good time to try out a hotspot you're unfamiliar with. Stick to known networks, even if they're free, like those found at Starbucks or Barnes & Noble stores that is powered by AT&T. Look for the network named "attwifi," then open a browser to click into the "walled garden" to get final access. You can also find free Wi-Fi at McDonalds, Panera Bread, and FedEx Office locations, not to mention libraries and local cafes.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">10. Count the Cards</b><br />
Gift cards are the most requested holiday gift every year, and this year will be no exception. Stick to the source when you buy one; scammers like to auction off gift cards on sites like eBay with little or no funds on them.<br />
<br />
<b style="color: #6aa84f; font-weight: normal;">11. Know What's Too Good to Be True</b><br />
Once again, McAfee has compiled a <a href="http://www.mcafee.com/us/about/news/2011/q4/20111109-01.aspx" target="_blank">Twelve Scams of Christmas list</a>, all things to be aware of while shopping. The "coupon scam" offers of a free product with purchase, in particular an iPad (a very coveted gadget at any holiday) or even holiday job offers. Many of these "offers" will come in via social media. Beware even of your friends, who might innocently forward such a thing. Be very wary even if you get a message from friend claiming he or she has been robbed, especially a friend overseas looking for money to be wire transferred, unless you absolutely can confirm it by talking to him or her personally. Skepticism in most cases can go a long way toward saving you from a stolen card number.</span></div></div>Love Ur Lifehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04268769001521004270noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144574637699802289.post-54546611574701772962011-11-21T06:57:00.000-08:002011-11-21T06:57:21.521-08:00The 12 Most Vulnerable Smartphones<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcyce-nOlvHJM5exvmPQEnB3M7FUcgy85TtvzzfUsgbYaE_7VR1qN5D0UDnEICW75Yk55YZQNqk6m0w-FUy17emklbGV8riW-0y_B_AFZdvGIM2CZXeGDxBq0J0YHpsFrgtwUTOWjuATU/s1600/samsung-mini-note.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcyce-nOlvHJM5exvmPQEnB3M7FUcgy85TtvzzfUsgbYaE_7VR1qN5D0UDnEICW75Yk55YZQNqk6m0w-FUy17emklbGV8riW-0y_B_AFZdvGIM2CZXeGDxBq0J0YHpsFrgtwUTOWjuATU/s1600/samsung-mini-note.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">How vulnerable is your smartphone to malware attacks? Android is by far the most targeted mobile operating system, but some popular Android phones made by Samsung, HTC, and Motorola, fare a lot worse than others.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Bit9, an enterprise-oriented security vendor, ranked the 12 most vulnerable cell phones (the "dirty dozen") based on how dated its software is out of the box. Android fragmentation is well documented, but your average cell phone user probably doesn’t care if he or she’s on Android 2.3 or Android 2.3.7. Functionally, the versions are similar.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">However security-wise, it matters. A lot. For instance if a malicious app breaches an older version of Android, Google patches the vulnerability and releases an incremental update so that app can never exploit your phone again. Then it’s up to the cell phone operator to send your phone that update.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The timing of when you get these updates depends upon your cell phone operator and cell phone manufacturer, rather than Google, which is fundamentally different from how PC security is distributed (it would be akin to buying a PC from Dell and relying on Dell to coordinate with your home Internet provider, instead of Microsoft, to update your Windows software).</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Unfortunately, not every Android phone gets updated to the latest version at the same time; pundits say carriers have no economic incentive to send updates to old or unpopular phones.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">As a result, according to Google, 56 percent of Android smartphones are stuck on the 18-month old Android 2.3 Froyo, or older versions. </span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">“We need to put pressure on the carriers. Why are they alone responsible for updating your security?” Harry Sverdlove, CTO of Bit9, told PCMag.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>Honorable Mention: <strong>Apple iPhone 4 </strong></strong></span></div><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"> </span><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Apple's iOS is less fragmented because Apple retains full control over when it releases its software update. But fragmentation still exists, because newer versions of iOS either don’t work or perform uber slowly on models that are over two years old. Others iPhone owners are simply turned off by slow download speeds or excessively large files. Lookout Mobile recently discovered that 30 percent of iPhone users don’t download the latest version of iOS when it comes out, and therefore miss out on time-sensitive iOS patches.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

This week, one study claimed iPhone has surpassed BlackBerry as the most popular smartphone used in the office. But Bit9 and PCMag’s networking analyst Samara Lynn still believe BlackBerry is “tops for IT,” because it uses an enterprise server that gives companies full control over issuing updates.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">With space enthusiasts celebrating the 50th anniversary of the first human space flight this year, the American Museum of Natural History in Manhattan is turning its attention to the future. Can we colonize Mars? Are lunar base camps possible? Is there life on Jupiter's moon?</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Those and other questions are the basis for a new exhibit, running Nov. 19 through Aug. 12, dubbed "<a href="http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/beyond/about-the-exhibition.php" target="_blank">Beyond Planet Earth: The Future of Space Exploration</a>."</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Rather than just displaying space artifacts, the exhibit ponders what we might encounter on future spaceflights, and how we might survive on distant planets. Visitors walk through rooms that explore lunar colonies, near-Earth asteroids, visits to Mars, and Jupiter's moon, Europa. In addition to some of the exhibit's standalone interactive components, meanwhile, the museum has put together an iOS app that lets visitors collect virtual symbols as they explore.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">"If money weren't a factor, many of the things in the exhibit could be done in our lifetime," Mike Shara, exhibit curator, said during a Tuesday press preview. Ideally, humans will be able to expand "beyond the 'womb' of Earth," in the years to come.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />

</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">One of the great questions is whether there is life on other planets and whether that life is "made of the same stuff as us," Shara said. "We'll only know by going there."</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Despite the end of NASA's shuttle program this summer, Shara stressed that space exploration is alive and well. "We don't want kids to think the space age is over," he said. "The future really is here."</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Space colonization is inevitable, said Michael Novacek, senior vice president and provost for the museum. "This exhibit is meant to feed that conviction," he said. It offers up "plausible, if expensive" ways to get there.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The exhibit kicked off earlier this week with a public laser art installation, created by artist Tim Otto Roth, that visualizes the data captured by the Hubble Space Telescope's spectrometers. It will run through Sunday, Nov. 27.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><br />

<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Google just made its music cloud service, Google Music, available to all, and it's mostly self-explanatory: You go to <a href="https://music.google.com/">music.google.com</a> and start uploading or purchasing music that you can then listen to on your computer, or on your Android phone, Google TV, or iPhone. Just like iTunes, right? Well, not really. Maybe it's not so straightforward after all. Here are a few pointers that may help clear out some of the possible sources of confusion:</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div><div class="Body1" style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>1. It can automatically back up iTunes and most other music flies. </b> </span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">When you set up the service, you can tell it to upload your iTunes library, your Windows Media Player library, or any file folders you designate. The service supports more file types than competitors iTunes and Amazon Cloud Player. This includes not just the MP3 and AAC formats those support, but also WMA, OGG, and FLAC. The latter are saved as 320 Kbps, even if your originals are of higher quality.</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="Body1" style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>2. It's two separate sites.</b> </span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Google Music is the player and library, but you buy music on the Android Market site—whether or not you ever use any Android device. From the Google Music site, you can also download an app, Music Manager, that scans your PC or Mac for music files and upload it to your cloud-based music locker. The Android Market is where you browse, preview, and purchase new music, which then appears on your Google Music pages or in your Android Music app.</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span id="intellitxt"></span></span></div><div class="Body1" style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>3. You can't download songs to another computer unless you bought them on Google Music.</b> </span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">iTunes Match and Amazon Cloud Player let you download stored music to any computer or compatible mobile device.</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="Body1" style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>4. Some Android devices fully support it, some don't.</b></span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b></b> There is, of course, an Android app, but that hasn't yet been updated with all the new features, and some phones and tablets still don't see music in the Android Market app yet. The whole point of Google Music is to finally give Android mobile users an equivalent to the iTunes services enjoyed by iPhone and iPad users. Google states that this will be updated within days, but it's unclear which phones and tablets' Android versions will be updated on what schedule. Some Android phones and plans, starting with T-Mobile, will even let you pay for music through your phone bill.</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="Body1" style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>5. There's no official iPhone app, but music. google. com works on iOS devices.</b> </span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">The Google Music site is even formatted well for iPhone screens. You can listen to any music in your Google Music cloud locker and even buy music from the separate Android Store, but you can't back up music on the iOS device to Google Music. Nor can you download music bought in the Android Music store to the iPhone directly (see #1 for how to do it indirectly).</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div class="Body1" style="color: #6aa84f; font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>6. There's tons of free music.</b> </span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">But you need to give Google your credit card information even for the free stuff. This could be a concern to those who worry about Google profiling them.</span></div><div class="Body1" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">It's hard to believe that it's been just three years since Google's open-source Android mobile operating system hit the scene. When the first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1, was released, the mobile landscape looked very different. Most people carried simple handsets that focused on making calls. If you were lucky, you could listen to music or play games on your mobile phone. Back then, you didn't <i>have</i> to have a smartphone that ran thousands of apps to let you, in the palm of your hand, do many of the things your computer could do. Apps weren't even a thing yet. Apple had only released the iPhone 3G and launched its groundbreaking App Store a couple of months earlier. </span></div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> It was the introduction of Android that helped propel the app-based smartphone to what it is today. The thing Android offered, which Apple's iPhone couldn't, was choice. Since it was an open-source platform, several hardware manufacturers could use the OS on their handsets, and a variety of wireless carriers could offer those phones—and they did.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> A year after Android was released, in the U.S. there was a single Apple iPhone on a single carrier, but there were eight different Android handsets with varying form factors available on three of the four major carriers. Today, you can find a variety of Android phones on AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon Wireless. According to Comscore, Android enjoys 45 percent of the U.S. smartphone market.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"> That's a lot of phones to choose from. To come up with our list, we've chosen two winners for each of the four major carriers, and if you're contract-phobic, the best unlocked handset. If you've settled on Android as your mobile platform, these phones are your best bets—for now, that is. At this rate of growth, we can assure you that there's another great 'Droid right around the corner.</span><br />
