Flash 10.1 for Android arrive in June
Kevin Lynch, chief technology officer (CTO) of Adobe, said publicly that he presented at the Google I / O (an important event that will take place in May) a trial version of Flash Player 10.1 Android compatible with 2.1.
In the event many developers will attend, so the idea is that they see the product and encourage them to create software using this technology for mid-June and users can enjoy Flash 10.1 on their Android phones.
Other manufacturers, and companies like RIM, Palm, Microsoft and Nokia, have already confirmed their inclusion of Flash on their platform, but it seems that Google has given people a hand to get the Android version faster.

Twitter behind an official application for Android
Twitter seems that intends to spread across all existing mobile Operating system with a formal application. A few days ago Twitter launched for BlackBerry, in which case they work side by side with the company after canadieneses smartphones, RIM.
On the other hand, the iPhone platform, Tweetie, a third party application that was quite popular and became the most widely used platform, was acquired by Twitter, making this the official application called Twitter and passing and passing for iPhone , offer it to users completely free of charge.
The issue is that in this second day of the conference Chirp, Twitter has stated that they go after an official application for Google's mobile operating system, Android, although at present no idea of whether to buy any existing aplicaci'ón market, cooperate with a company and though we doubt there is a third possibility, that they believe it. Any bets who will sign for the candidate?

The Intel Application Store, AppUp Center for Windows and Linux under the Atom platform, opens its doors for users of Moblin, the company's operating system. While current users in the U.S. and Canada already have access, not until the 31th of March 2010, when European users can access and among some of the fortunate countries is Spain.
Moreover, the Intel AppUp Center is also thinking of the future platform MeeGo, where Maemo and Moblin systems go hand in hand and compete directly with Apple's AppStore or Google's Android Market.
Moreover, it is normal that Intel wants to access other markets and the growth in use of this equipment worldwide is quite delicious to do business everywhere and think of Meegan, also is interesting because we can certainly see a confrontation between 3 shortly.

Facebook will open its information flow
Surely you're fearing for your information and pictures on Facebook just read the statement if you have a profile, and maybe you'll have every reason to fear for your privacy, but not for the reason that Facebook will open its information flow, by this tranquil estate.
As Facebook announced they intend to give access to their information flow of public users, ie if you have privacy settings well done, in principle, you need not fear for your data.
Facebook's intention is none other than to offer this information to developers in the next F8 conference in April to invite them to write applications and connections to your network, using this data and offer them to users.
The very openness of information flow, Twitter made a while back with the data of its users and because she got some of their most important partners and, on the other hand, developers, books, programs of hundreds of applications that are available in the network to access Twitter today (and continuing to develop and publish from time to time).
For me personally, every time they speak of "distributed" user information privacy worries me most in my network, but Facebook has already promised a thousand times, actively and passively, never do anything that could harm the privacy of its users ... yet you trust the security of Facebook?.
The application of Digg would appear today in the App Store
Much has been rumored about the supposed emergence of a native application for iPhone from Digg. Speculation could be terminated today, because apparently the rumor is true, and in a few hours will make its appearance in the App Store.

PenSecurity, securely manages USB drives on your computer
USB sticks are a great way to convey information quickly and easily. But then again, that too has its "disadvantages". Without realizing it in a couple of seconds, someone can connect a memory in your computer and steal a large amount of information. I do not even be said of the many threats that spread through these devices.
To protect ourselves from these potential hazards there PenSecurity. It is a very simple tool that offers .various security features to manage USB devices that connect to our team
The application can block write-all units, thus preventing anyone to steal information using his memory. It also prevents the automatic execution of files, thus preventing the entry of viruses and other malware that spreads via USB sticks.
Without doubt an excellent tool we can use to supplement our antivirus. PenSecurity is free and supports Windows XP/Vista/7.
Firefox 3.0 will run out of support
Are you still using Firefox 3.0.x? It is best to go and thinking of upgrading. Mozilla has announced that version 3.0.19 is the latest update of security and stability that is published for the 3.0.x branch, and thereafter only offer support for versions 3.6 and 3.5.
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.
Facebook removes applications to see who visits your profile
Facebook has blocked and deleted all the applications they said could know who was visiting your profile on social networking.
I've been searching for a while an application that referred to this but have not found it, when even a few days ago, continued to receive invitations to my profile applications such as "Who visits your profile?" Or "Who visited your profile yesterday?" that naive not to have read the privacy policy of this social network sent me.
But Facebook makes that very clear, in any form is impossible to know who is coming to look at your profile (wall, photos, videos, links, etc ...), although these applications were available (so far). This would not be possible since it would violate the privacy rights of other users.
These applications are prohibited, but try to GET its purpose, which is nothing to get all our data on the network without restrictions for privacy as follows:
When you accept this access, you are giving access to the creator of the applications to all your data without restrictions, then finally discovered what pages visitors and profiles of other users what you see every day.
When the other user to start using this application, the creator of it they can send data on who visits your profile .... As long as those visitors also have transferred your data to this application.
In short: The more people use Google, additional data will have its creator private and nobody knows what to do with them.
No good for nothing more than accept the use of these applications because most have not come to work, or do not work perfectly if all your network does not use this application.
I hope that the blocking and deletion of these applications is for ever and that if some clever re-invent something similar to steal information to users faster than Facebook in blocks.
With desktopify passes widgets online to your desktop applications
If you're like me, who prefer to use desktop applications or widgets instead of web services, this application you'll love. It's called Desktopify and makes a wonderful feature to convert web widgets to desktop applications or desktop widgets.
For example I use Feedreader instead of Google Reader is more comfortable because I have an application open a tab in the browser, but whether this application would take my Google Reader to the desktop, thinking maybe I could stop using the Feedreader ...
To convert your web widget into a desktop widget, just copy the web code and paste it into Desktopify widget, then the program will create an identical copy that you can install on your hard drive and view from your Mac or Windows desktop.
Furthermore, it is best that you can change some options and appearance of the widget and do not have to worry about updating it does this automatically.

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.

Just a few hours after Apple pulled a lot of applications from the AppStore to include content "potentially offensive" to its customers, the company has given its decision stating that "Every time we receive complaints from our customers about content same and also there are any objections, we review in depth ".

These statements relate to the disposal of an application from the AppStore, as the company received many complaints about the content "highly sexual" some applications that were available in the AppStore.
That's why Apple chose to change policies and regulations of the AppStore to avoid such "misunderstandings" with their customers and eventually eliminate a significant portion of applications from the AppStore. Although these have not entirely disappeared from the store ...

Apple bans the word Android in App Store
"Android" is a bad word for Apple, or at least that's what they are implying with the last of its controversial requests.
An application, Flash of Genius, was a finalist in the Android Developer Challenge, and its developers found it good enough to be mentioned in the description of it, not only in the Android Market, but in the version of the iPhone. It appears that this did not sit well with the Cupertino company, who sent an email to the team of Flash of Genius asking to remove the mention of Android in the description, and that failure to do so, the availability of its application in the App Store was interrupted.
