Reddit is one of those communities people seem to either love or hate. That’s because Reddit, like the early United States, is a loose collection of dozens of different communities with different goals, interests, and moral codes. From the root-happy folks at r/Android to the celebrity-obsessed fans at r/IamA, Reddit has plenty of different things going on. And now, you can add “Android app” to that list of things. Introducing the AMA app Reddit has never had an official…
Did you crack the screen on your Nexus 5? If so, you were probably really sad. Well, get really happy. Because I have some good news: Google recently updated its policies to allow you to replace your Nexus 5. That new policy lets you replace a damaged Nexus 5 one time only. So if you crack your screen or damage your Nexus 5 case in any way, Google will instantly send you a replacement. “No questions asked” One of the best parts about this policy is that Google will replace your…
Unless we are fanatics and not fans, we usually have quite a number of favorite artists. Since singing talent is on the rise, both natural talent and technologically enhanced talent (come on, we all know that most of them are just attractive and being good looking can sell everything, Scarlett Johansson’s used tissues. Need I say more?). Anyway, to keep track on the gigs of all of our favorite artists can become next to impossible because the next upcoming artist is always performing everyday…
Samsung just announced the new Galaxy Note 4. The world is buzzing because – like the Note 3 before it – the Note 4 is an amazingly powerful (and amazingly large) smartphone. What did you miss from Berlin’s IFA 2014? What do you need to know about the Galaxy Note 4? Here are the top 4 most important things to know about Samsung’s new flagship device: 4) It’s not a whole lot different from the Note 3 If you already own a Note 3, there’s little incentive to get a Note 4. Samsung…
At Berlin’s IFA 2014 event, Samsung revealed a smartphone everybody expected them to reveal: the Galaxy Note 4. Unbeknownst to most members of the media, however, was the fact that the Galaxy Note brought along a friend called the Galaxy Note Edge. This new smartphone features a small curve to the right of the screen. This curve extends the display past the face of the screen and onto the right-hand side. It’s a nifty little feature that may or may not be a gimmick. In any case,…
Somehow our favorite restaurants always have the longest waiting period. It is so annoying to wait for days to get a table in that new fabulous restaurant that the final mead does not even seem worth the wait. That is in case we do manage to get a table because most of us lose all our patience by that time. The local Chinese take away is not so bad after all. Also, our favorites keep changing from time to time. How much of the same kind of delicious food can we eat anyway? We start craving…
It is clear that Apple would not be able to compete with Google on pricing. The Android platform and great handset choices have helped Google capture more than 80% of the market. The strength or unique selling proposition of Apple has always been the quality and feature rich nature of their products. That helped Apple get market attention and also enabled it to price its products at a much higher pedestal. It had its own niche and people wanting to buy an Apple product went for it despite the…
One of the most common phenomena of the human brain is beginning something with full force and having all the energy fizzled out. It happens very often. We always manage to lose all the motivation we started with while beginning something, be it studies, business projects, art, exercise and everything that requires us to get tired mentally, physically or both. It is the easy way out and humans are to easy what thorns are to roses. We still manage to get through with doing stuff when we are…
We cannot imagine our lives without phones. By that I mean that we cannot imagine our lives without the cellular technology. Having a landline qualifies as having a phone but it also qualifies as cracking a joke in today’s time. A phone has become synonymous with a mobile phone or should I say a smart phone. We are not far away from a time when phones, the ones that were used for making calls – the reason why phones were invented, would be found in museums and be considered vintage and not…
Post the Google I/O developer meet in June, Google released a preview of the Android L and developers were happy that they could test applications on this latest update. However, for the consumer waiting for this new OS version from Google, the point of interest is, who is going to get the update the fastest? Let us look at the favorites and why they are well poised to get Android L over others? Nexus The reason is obvious. It is a Google phone and would come with inbuilt Android L.…
