The iPod Revolution : All captured in one Graphic

After 2001, there was an explosion. Music, Music and Music. From a 90 year old granny to a 7 year old timmy, all seen rotating their fingers on a little, smaller-than-10-cm-device. Even today, walk around you’ll find tons of people snapping, pinching and shaking little devices to mix up music and much more. That’s the iPod magic. Nah, wait.. It’s Steve Magic.

Since 2001, Apple has sold millions of iPods and billions of Apps. Want to know some more amazing facts?

Google Apps to abandon Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 6 from March 1

Internet Explorer 6 has been a huge problem for developers from sometime as they (including me!) are having difficult time optimizing websites for a browser made in 2001 for websites developed in recent times as technology has evolved a lot in recent years.

Google will be phasing out browser support for Google Docs suite and the Google Sites editor from the first of march which means that Google will no longer guarantee the working of their products on the older browsers from that date.

Google will use technologies like HTML5 and faster javascript processing which are not supported by older browsers. They will also be showing updates on their website to upgrade browsers if you are using them. The worse part is that 100+ computers at my school use Internet Explorer 6 (I hope to break in and download Firefox soon!) . Support for services like Google Mail and Google Calendar for older browsers will be phased out later this year too.

The few prominent supported browsers would be Internet Explorer 7.0 and above, Firefox 3.0 and above, Google Chrome 4.0 and above, and Safari 3.0 and above.

This is a great news for all those people who had started and participated in the campaigns, for driving out IE6 from computers around the world as apart from lack of functionality, these old browsers hold a huge threat to data security too.

iPad : iPhone on Steroids or Maybe Not

iPad is here! The blogosphere has gone crazy about it, it’s there on all news channels, all top newspaper headlines. But is it actually worth it? Here’s what we think about it after watching Steve’s keynote and unveiling of the “magical” (Steve, here’s the evil laugh – muaha) tablet. If you missed the event do check out the liveblog where we covered the event second by second!

Design

iPhone is just too awesome and i can’t deny the fact. The design structure is just too good but man, a larger version of it? Literally, if we see iPad it’s like a stretched version of the iPhone. Same style with black border around the screen and a home button at the centre at bottom. Volume buttons on the right (this one’s unlike the iPhone). It’s Exactly like the iPhone and you’ll come to know why i am telling you that.

Home Screen

Same as iPhone. Apps and a dock. Springboard directly from the iPhone OS.

Operating System

It’s iPhone again. All the iPhone applications (140,00+ apps) are compatible with the tablet device. It’s like some sort of app simulator, really. If you run apps they will appear as a small block in the centre of the screen and no doubt you can double the size on the screen but the output quality reduces heavily especially with apps with a lot of text.

Multi-Touch

iPhone taught us what multi-touch actually is. Now Apple’s just using the same technology in the iPad too.  I don’t deny that i would love to use multi-touch on a 9.7 inch screen, but Apple’s where the innovation gone?

Some reasons why it isn’t

There are few things which differentiate iPhone and iPad too. There they go.

Applications specially for iPad

iPhone SDK (Application development kit for iPhone apps) with support for iPad applications was made available instantly at the launch of iPad. The newer SDK allows developer to make use of iPads large screen and offer newer stuff!

iBook Store

This one’s a sure Amazon Kindle killer. iBook store is a app which can be downloaded from the App store for iPad which allows users to download and read ebooks from the store. Something similar to iTunes music store but this time they are selling books. User reviews and more features available at the Ebook store.

Screen Size

Obviously, those who hate playing with small screens will love this creation. iPhone has got a large screen but it’s not enough for many to view pictures in one go or watch their favorite movies or Youtube in High Definition. Large Screen means more fun! Game experience will rock on this too!

iPad is our most advanced technology in a magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable price,

The Name

iPad. It’s not iPhone, ha. But we’ve come across so many cases where women have misunderstood the name iPad and related it to a female hygiene product. Bad Luck, Apple.

Pricing

$499 to start with a 16 GB space and a multi touch, 9.7 inch tablet device which is WiFi and Bluetooth ready is good stuff. Way to go.

Now don’t walk and talk, walk and type on your iPhone!

Remember those idiotic Idea Cellular ads asking you to walk and talk so that you loose your excess weight and stay fit? Well here’s a iPhone app which allows you to type when your walking.

If you’ve got two eyes (mostly, you have) then probably when your typing on your phone while walking you might have ended up banging your head with the other people, walls and specially light posts because your eyes just focus on the phone. No more.

Enter Walk n Type. This is a iPhone application available at the app store for $0.99. The basic feature of the app is that whenever your typing anything on you iPhone it will display whats in front of you by using the camera present on the phone’s front end.

This works with everything, Tweetdeck, Safari and all apps that support Copy-Paste.

This App is a must for those secret lady admirers, she will never know you were watching here and not typing!

Fifa 2010 app

If you are a die hard soccer fan and want to keep yourself updated about everything about Fifa 2010 on your iPhone or iPod Touch then you’ve got to download the ESPN Fifa 2010 app on your iPhone/iPod Touch just now! [iTunes Link]

The app is your guide to Fifa 2010! Select your favorite teams, detailed pages about teams and what players are playing and comments on that team. Check out the match fixtures and which groups are the teams playing in, latest news about the teams and football and a lot more.

There is also a section for venues where all the venues at South Africa are put up with detailed information and pictures. Also, the most useful part of the app (atleast for me) is that it shows the time when matches are going to take place in your local time standards which assures me that i am surely not going to miss my favorite matches for sure!

iPod Touch Vs iPhone : Makes no sense, really?

In this iPhone powered world (or atleast iPhone buzzed world), we won’t make a mistake of under-estimating the iPod touch which is also a major player in the market.

Recently, when the survey was made about the most sold gaming consoles iPod Touches were high on the charts and this Christmas iPod Touch has topped a lot of things.

App Store download stats

App Store download stats

First and foremost being the app store downloads. According to Flurry, which provides statistics about Application downloads on handheld devices, stated that Apple’s app store saw a 51% growth during Christmas and that there was about 1000% growth in downloads from iPod Touches!

This is why people around the web are telling that iPod Touch’s were the most gifted devices this Christmas (surely when compared to iPhone). It’s raining apps for Apple! [MobileCrunch]

There’s something else we had stated, referring to this. When Apple did add a video camera to iPod Nano and not to iPod Touch we said why they were doing this, so that they could sell a hell lot of iPod Touches this Christmas and then later add a camera and those who bought iPods would probably upgrade to the newer iPods soon. I am really looking forward to their January event!

Twitters New Mobile Version : Mobile Version of a #fail whale too!

IMG_0341Twitter unveils a new Mobile Client which resembles the Web interface and has all features but Lists. So finally the time has come when you can dump your twitter iPhone client and move on with the web interface.

This was a much needed step. One of the reasons could be, if twitter want’s to monetize it’s web interface it would be useless to have millions using it through third party clients and not the actual web interface. 

Apart from that, the current mobile version just sucks, because you can’t see your dm’s (Direct Messages), You cannot Retweet messages directly and forget that when you cannot even reply to tweets!

The new version can be accessed at mobile.twitter.com from your mobile browser.

Also, Twitter has mobile version of it’s #fail whale too!

The new interface is kind of Smart :) Have a look!

Apple to kill off Google Maps on iPhone?

iPhone is seamlessly integrated with Google Maps but the following events make Apple and Google, quite a bit opponents.

iphone_maps

The latest news is that Google is developing it’s  own feature rich map application which would be something similar to the present Google maps you are using on your iPhone but more advanced features.

Apple posted a Job Listing, for the iPhone Maps team to take it to the next level.

We want to take Maps to the next level, rethink how users use Maps and change the way people find things. We want to do this in a seamless, highly interactive and enjoyable way. We’ve only just started

It surely states, they have just started so don’t expect the app so early, or some reports suggest that Apple could be releasing the App with new hardware ;)

Apple and Google’s Growing competition are a proof of this and along with that the recent news was that Apple have acquired Placebase which is a mapping company. So, its clear, New maps are coming.
