Forgive us for going on something of a meme frenzy just lately, but with so many good apps entering the App Store of late, it would be rude not to share each and every one of them with you guys. Meme Cam, the latest in a growing list of meme/ rage face focused apps, automatically adds a meme to one's face using the face detection technology of the iPhone's camera.
Although some are naturally more economical than others when it comes to managing storage space on their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, I think most of us would agree that if we could top up our quota for a few extra songs, apps, games or video clips, we probably would.
For many of us, the launch of Apple's new iPad device seems like an age away. The early adopters have spent the last six weeks enjoying the Retina display, quad-core GPU, LTE connectivity and the iSight camera which collectively equate to a pretty substantial upgrade.
Although Nokia have been going through a rather difficult spell in recent years, they have still been managing to cling on to the top spot when it comes to global sales of cellphones - until now. According to new research conducted by a number of analytics firms, Samsung have ousted Nokia from the top of the leader board.
While I often ignore the senseless rumors that come from the tomfoolery of tech "analysts", this latest one claiming that Apple plans to discontinue the 17" MacBook Pro comes from Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst with KGI Securities who has gotten some things right about Apple products in the past. Kuo believes that this discontinuation will come as a result of Apple's convergence of the Apple's Air and Pro notebook lineups. In Q1 of 2012, Apple sold roughly 3.1 million notebooks. Out of that figure, nearly half of those were of the 13-inch MacBook Pro. Kuo has a bleak estimation of the 17-inch Pro sales figure, however, stating that only 50,000 were sold in that quarter.
The phrase "the early bird catches the worm" rings true frequently in various areas of the tech spectrum, and since Apple has begun stepping up the security of its activation servers, it is important to remind you all to backup your unlock activation tickets before it is too late.
Didn't manage to snag tickets to WWDC 2012? Fear not, for one group of plucky people is putting on a WWDC clone. Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference is the biggest thing on a developer's calendar. Offering workshops on all things Mac and iOS, the get-together is more than just an excuse to meet up with all your developer friends and have a few drinks, although that is one of the added bonuses.
Wolfram Alpha, the knowledge and computation service that can be found on the web, or on smartphones - you may know it as the service which feeds Siri with data to return to you - will be coming to the desktop, but in a rather unconventional way. When I read the headline that this was going to happen, I initially thought that they were developing an app for either the Windows 8 or OS X app stores.
A new live TV streaming website offers content from around the globe, for free, and right on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. What's better, is all this is for free, and it's available right now. The problem is, the chances are that it won't be around for much longer now since the eyes of the world are very literally on it.
The developers over at LinkedIn Corporation have finally got their iPad appreciation hats on and pushed out an update to the professional network app, bringing full universal support along with a Retina-enabled user interface for Apple's third-generation iPad. The LinkedIn app had previously only been available as a native iPhone or iPod touch app, but version 5.0 should appease those business professionals who have been craving for a little bit more.
