While it certainly took a fair bit of time, Nike+ has finally sprinted to the finish line on Google Play. Just like its iOS counterpart which is pretty popular among people who regularly run and jog, the Nike+ Running App for Android packs quite a lot of features to help people monitor their runs and set goals. You can monitor statistics such as distance and speed across past runs, and, while you're actually running, you can see in-progress GPS maps, change songs, and even get audio feedback on your run for when you pass certain distance milestones.
Infographics provide a great way for comparisons between tech devices and events to be presented, and for those a little bamboozled by endless lines of text, it keeps things clear interesting.

Although superheros have proven to be extremely popular amongst comic book readers for many decades, the production of Hollywood movies based on those old comics is still a relatively recent phenomenon. Nevertheless, the blockbuster movies always prove to be smash hits with cinema goers and more often than not seem to spawn a video game for all major gaming platforms.
Having the ability to effectively control consumer technology through audible commands is widely regarded as the future direction in which tech companies will eventually go down. Since the introduction of Apple's Siri last October, a number of clone apps have popped up on various platforms, and although most of them profess to be a 'Siri Killer', it has always seemed rather strange to me that they compare themselves to Siri rather than attempt to standalone.
