The official Twitter app has, on both iOS and Android, been subject to much improvement just recently, and with the iPhone 5 quickly following iOS 6 in terms of general release, said Twitter app has just been updated, and is now fully compatible with new software and device alike.
The release date for the much-lauded iPhone 5 is finally upon us, and for those who've been queuing and waiting patiently for their brand-new smartphone, the past nine days must have seemed like an eternity. Hundreds of iPhone fanatics have congregated outside a number of Apple Stores across the United States and around the world, including the iconic Fifth Avenue branch in Manhattan, New York, and many have now gotten their hands on device they craved so badly.
HTC is a company struggling to maintain consumer interest in the mobile market, and despite acquiring a majority share in Beats Audio, sales of its smartphones have been steadily falling. The HTC One X is the company's current flagship, and despite being very well-equipped in terms of processor power, camera quality and most of the relevant hardware categories, it seems folk have been way more interested in the Samsung Galaxy S III and iPhone 5. In fact, it doesn't seem - that's simply how it is.
Facial recognition, although used by security firms and law enforcement around the world, is pretty rare in consumer society, and the only time gadgets tend to get any sort of face-spotting technology is in the sci-fi movies. Of course, the jailbreak and root communities have tried - in part - to implement something like facial recognition to our beloved smartphones and tablet, but I think you'll agree with me when I say most, if not all of them have been pretty poor.
Everyone must know by now that Apple and Samsung just don't get along very well. In fact, it's safe to say that the two warring technology giants have never been on worse terms than they are today, what with the $1 billion dollar court case and all.
Just in time for the launch of Apple's latest firmware - iOS 6 - and the iPhone 5, Facebook has taken the opportunity to update their iOS app with full support for iOS 6 and the taller display of the iPhone 5.
Now that Apple has officially unveiled the iPhone 5, it is no longer a collection of rumors and speculative suggestions. The sixth-generation iPhone is a fully functioning device which consumers all over the world will be able to get their hands on starting tomorrow, or possibly today, if any delivery companies happened to shoot themselves in the foot by delivering some pre-orders early. With more than two million pre-order units sold over the first weekend, there will be some happy faces tomorrow when the delivery man comes knocking on our doors.
As you are almost certainly aware by now, the brand-new iPhone 5 is releasing tomorrow, and with consumers already queuing in their droves to be among the first to get their hands on the device, rivaling companies are queuing up to take a pop at Apple's flagship.
Yesterday, Apple released the latest major update to iOS – iOS 6 – for the iPhone 3GS, 4 and 4S, new iPad and iPad 2, and iPod touch 4G. It comes with 200 new features – some game-changingly huge like the new Maps application – and other small ones like being able to send out tweets and Facebook updates from Notification Center.
Day-to-day computer usage is definitely better when it is organized and all happenings and notifications are reliably fed back to the user to keep them in the loop with what is going on, which is probably one of the reasons why the Growl Mac app is so popular with OS X users. If you aren't familiar with the existence of Growl, then the developers proudly refer to it as the ultimate notification system for the Mac.
