TweetDeck is updated with many improvements
TweetDeck is one of the most used clients for intensive users of Twitter from your desktop, either Windows, Mac or Linux, since it is based on Adobe AIR technology. Already, a client is fairly complete, but allows convenient access to your contacts, but as has been released Version 0.34.1.
In this update, we found several integrations such as Google Buzz or foursquare, but if you do not use the latter, also allow you geolocalizarte TweetDeck as you can see in the video above showing all the new concepts.
On the other hand, have added new shorten URLs to which we already had and upload video directly from a file or live from the webcam to the server TwitVid.
Also we will have global filters in our columns to filter unwanted tweets, in addition to program messages when they want. Very useful utility to send messages at a time when we are unable to do so or simply because we do not trust our memory. Interesting for business Twitter accounts.
Finally, since we publish TweetDeck in services like Wordpress or Tumblr and other services that are compatible with the Twitter API.

Once you have "connected" to Spotify, every time you share music tracks will play on the news page.
From now on we will also have more elsewhere, called "inbox" where your friends can send songs and playlists.On the other hand, do not forget Spotify our mobile devices and now to synchronize our lists will not have to connect a USB cable, but we will sync via WiFi.
The playlists are editable and you will see who the user who added a track ("also know who the funny that has been erased?), In addition to knowing the popularity of each one of them, knowing at any time how many users have subscribed.
On the other hand, Spotify will give you the ability to import songs in local mode, synchronizing both our lists we have in the computer and in the cloud.
Also the visual side has been more careful, and when we are playing a list, the covers of the first nine songs will be represented as a mosaic.
Finally, Twitter has not been forgotten and to share songs at any time you like, now you have buttons to share both Facebook and on Twitter. Spotify Version 0.4 will automatically update throughout the week.

Adobe Updates could be distributed through Windows Update
Microsoft and Adobe have decided to work together to distribute security updates for their products. Although as yet few details are known, everything suggests that the objective is that through Windows Update so users can download security updates for Adobe products.
This partnership comes on account of delicate moment in which Adobe is in regard to safety. Reader is currently one of the most attacked, and obviously this is not only concerned about Adobe, but Microsoft, as its operating system is also affected.
Could you open Windows Update Microsoft products that are not theirs? So far the company has only confirmed it is collaborating with Adobe to make its updates can be distributed through tools like System Center Configuration Manager or System Center Essentials.

In fact, it was expected that the life cycle of Firefox 3.0.x ended earlier this year during the month of January, but the delay of version 3.6 that Mozilla triggered a few months extended support for that branch.
The latest version 3.0.19 will be released later this month. If you do not want to stay unsupported necessarily have to upgrade to version 3.5 or 3.6.

TomTom GPS applications for iPhone will be updated in the coming days
TomTom has announced a few hours ago has sent Apple's version 1.3 of its GPS navigation applications for the iPhone. This new version added the functionality of traffic information in real time. Even is thought to also be added to Google's local search feature and some other still unknown.
During the first months of the App Store, TomTom was the undisputed leader, but confirming the months passed and several companies released their navigation software in many cases even better than TomTom, the company has ceded its leadership for Navigon .
Currently, TomTom is in second place in the user preference, just back from Navigon. TomTom says that with this new update, Navigon and TomTom both have similar features, which will make TomTom sales rebound significantly.
Apparently the update will be free and the first maps to be updated will be the United States. Up progressively over the days, he expects the rest of the maps are updated to the newest version with the features described above. Only hope some day to see how it is that things unfold.
However, it is believed that certain characteristics may be recovered separately as a subscription, but neither Apple nor TomTom have spoken about it. As you mentioned, applications are currently being revised, so that at any moment, might appear in the App Store.

Acrobat and Adobe Reader have been updated to fix security problems
As promised, Adobe, yesterday released the long-awaited security update to its popular applications like Adobe Acrobat and Reader 9.3.1. Meanwhile, users who are still using version 8, will update the version 8.2.1 to fix security problems. One sees vulnerabilities, allowing a PDF file with malicious code would allow a hacker to take complete control of your computer.
With respect to Flash Player, the update was released last week, but if you have not done the upgrade, now is good time to do it, the latest version is 10.0.45.2. The problem for those who use Mac OS X, is that the Flash player does not always respect the setting that causes the system to remind us of updates, so Adobe recommends that you do soon.
To get an idea of the danger we run Mac users not to upgrade to Adobe software, a recently performed study shows that the percentage of security breaches resulting PDF documents increased from 56% in the first months of 2009, to 80% during the last 3 months last year. So we might as well keep applications from Adobe and our whole system in general, updated to the latest versions of the updates.

Documents To Go for iPhone will incorporate direct synchronization with your computer and Google Docs
The makers of The iPhone Blog, had opportunity to chat at length with people from DataViz, the company that develops Documents To Go Premium for iPhone and Dataviz released "very soon" the application will be able to synchronize directly with computers besides that there will also sync with Google Docs.
Dataviz is expected to refer the application to Apple in a couple of weeks, which means that would be available in about 1 month. Speaking of timing, there is talk of a synchronization as we know it in other mobile devices, ie the terminal to connect via USB to your computer and synchronize without the need to do so via Wi-Fi.
Furthermore, if the user is that, in addition to save important documents on your computer, also like to take them into Google Docs, also may be able to. In short, would become the first document manager for the iPhone that will incorporate a synchronization solution via USB. One of the good news that have been released recently, is that Google Docs now allows you to upload to the "cloud" any type of file, such as a PDF or JPEG image, which certainly is a benefit extra for those using Documents To Go Premium for iPhone.
For now, I recommend watching the video that will give you an idea of what awaits us this update from Documents To Go.
