Quixey App Search

You may have noticed that I added a new feature to the right side of the blog. The Quixey App Search box. What is it? Well that is easy, Quixey is a new service to help find the Apps you want and weed out all the junk you do not want. How do they do that?They let you search by "Conversational" terms. What that means is, instead of searching for say... "Office App" and getting results for all kinds of items, you can search for "Create a Spreadsheet" and get results that will allow you to create a spreadsheet! Seems simple enough huh?

The End of Blackberry?

First of all, As you guys know I do not usually cut, copy and paste and article from another source into my blog. However, today's piece is an exception. It is so well written and informative that I just cannot help but paste it word for word and link for link... So I have quoted the original article from InfoWorld and Galen Gruman below.



I hate to kick someone when they're down, but since the wounds are self-inflicted, I'll get over it in this case. Yesterday at its BlackBerry World show, Research in Motion co-CEO Jim Balsillie demonstrated beyond a shadow of a doubt that the BlackBerry is dead. For the last few years, I've marveled in a horrified way as the once-top smartphone creator dug itself deeper into a pit of denial about the changes in the mobile market. It's hard for a company to adjust to a new reality, especially after a decade of success that bred complacency. But RIM isn't even trying any more.

Apple to release iPhone 4S in September.. NOT iPhone 5!

Why is there STILL no iPad 2 Jailbreak?

So like many of you, I have been patiently and anxiously awaiting the Jailbreak for the iPad 2. All the iPhones have new Jailbreaks, even the original iPad does. So why doesn't the iPad 2?

Digitimes reports that three employees from the Taiwan-based Foxconn Electronics plants in Shenzhen China, have been charged with leaking iPad 2's design to outside accessory companies in China. This is according to a Chinese report on sznews.com 

They are suspected of leaking the design of the iPad 2 to the public, therefor allowing some online retailers to design and have for sale, iPad 2 cases, prior to hit hitting the market. As we all know, Apple does not like it when you take the cover off their cake. So these three were arrested on December 26th of 2010 and apparently were only officially charged for violating the company's trade secrets on March 23 of this year, 2011

First of all, leaking pictures of a product that YOU manufacturer.... Bad idea. It WILL come back to YOU! I mean really, what exactly did they think would happen? No company likes to have their secrets let out.... Least of all Apple!
