Google Talks about Google TV: A Great Combination of Web to Deliver the Premier Entertainment

June 19th, 2010 by and tagged , , , , , ,

Finally, Google TV comes with a very clear concept. Recently, techcrunch.com reported about it, “When Google TV was announced at Google I/O there was a lot of excitement surrounding it. Unfortunately, there were also a lot of questions. And the glitchy demo they did on stage certainly didn’t help matters. Today, Google has released a simple two and a half minute video to explain the service and show exactly how it works.”

Google talks about Google TV very clearly through the video. Google TV built on Android and runs the Google Chrome web browser. The TV offers a Search option. It gives you a chance to integrate your Android phones with it. It is partnered with many TV networks.

What says Google about Google TV?

“Google TV is a new product that seamlessly combines your TV, DVR recording, and the entire internet. Some new TVs will come with it pre-installed or you can get a separate box for the TV you already own. So how does it work? Well, start with the same TV you know and love. Now add the ability to search for and tune to channels, and search for and tune to individual shows.

You can also find shows to record and easily access any programs you’ve already recorded and saved. Google TV also has a built-in web browser which means that the entertainment options. You can search for, record, and save now include the entire incredible breath of content that’s available today across the web, and of course your favorite online videos.

Now, with Google TV, there’s always something good on and there’s always interesting new content to find. Combining the web and TV means doing things you could never do before like check your fantasy team stats right on the same screen while you’re watching a game or see what people are saying about today’s latest news, even as you’re watching it happening.

Your television isn’t just about video anymore. It’s a complete entertainment device where you can access your photos, music, favorite games, and many of the 50,000 apps available today from Android market. Finally, Google TV lets you personalize your television experience with the custom home screen where you can easily edit and access your favorite channels, shows, and websites.”

Google had unveiled another video also at the time of introducing Google TV:

“Back when there were only a few networks, watching TV was pretty simple. You turned on the TV, and if you didn’t like what was playing, you changed the channel. But these days, TV can be pretty complicated. Figuring out what you want to watch is hard enough, and that’s only the beginning. Once you’ve chosen a program, you have to figure out when it’s playing, and which of hundreds of channels it’s on. It’s like you have to change your schedule to fit your TV’s schedule.

In fact, many of us end up watching videos on the web because it’s easier to find things you want. I mean think about it, more and more of our favorite shows and videos are showing up online these days, and you can get to them really easily, whenever you want, just by typing in what you’re looking for.

The problem is, these smaller screens don’t really compare to our home entertainment systems. Which leads us to pretty big question: if the web is so smart, and our TVs are so fun to watch. Why do we have to choose? Why can’t they work together? Well now they can.”

According to the Google, Google TV is an experience of “TV meets web and web meets TV.” The device will go on sale in fall 2010. It is only available pre-installed on Sony TVs and blu-ray players, as well as Logitech companion boxes. Google says, “Android market would be available on Google TV in early 2011.” It supports Flash 10.1 and Chrome 5.0.

Google TV will introduce a great challenge for the SEO also. They would have to learn how to promote their websites on the social panel.

Microsoft Bing to Take over Default iPhone Search

May 31st, 2010 by and tagged , , , , ,

Now, rumor turns into reality. Microsoft Bing to take over iPhone search is not a rumor now. There are many sources here who have declared that Apple is working with Microsoft to broaden the iPhone’s search.

Bing already has worked with Windows phones. The application is coming for iPhone as a default search.

About this update, techcrunch.com reports, “Microsoft Bing will replace Google in the next version of the iPhone operating system to be released in June, we’ve heard from mulitple sources, including a high level source who claims to have been briefed on the matter. We’re not calling this more than a rumor yet, but one thing is sure – our sources close to Google in particular are speaking freely about this as fact.”

Further the news portal adds, “But Google was rumored to be paying Apple $100 million a year for the search rights to iPhone, along with the ability to serve search ads. Apple would likely have stuck with them unless Microsoft was willing to pay as well, and it certainly wasn’t a lock that Google Search would be removed from the iPhone.

There were rumors yesterday that Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer would attend the WWDC event on June 7 to announce Visual Studio development for the iPhone, although they were quickly retracted. Our sources on this are independent of that story.”

The news portal quotes an update also, “new sources are saying “It’s more complicated than this” and not to expect Google search to be removed from the iPhone next month. Also hearing that Google isn’t paying anything like $100 million/year to Apple for the search rights to the iPhone.”

Microsoft Bing to take over iPhone search is not a rumor now. It is going to be possible earlier in this year. What about the users? Will they like it over the iPhone? It is just a business deal between Apple and Microsoft.

An Opinion about Module SmartCase for Apple iPhone

March 9th, 2010 by and tagged , ,

Recently, I was wondering to know about Module SmartCase for Apple iPhone. The subject was very new for me. I went through some online resources. Finally, I found a review on Module SmartCase for Apple iPhone.

“The Dacha Works Module SmartCase is a lot like a corset for the iPhone: it focuses on changing the appearance and form factor of your favourite little device. Sure, it adds some scratch protection to the sides and back of the device, but don’t count on this back plate to protect your smartphone in the event of a fall.

What you can count on is the patent-pending LeveRidge (hah, leverage) grooves that extend along the length of the Module, making the iPhone 3GS becomes much easier and more comfortable to hold in your hand (On second thought, maybe the whole corset comparison isn’t where I want to take this review).” The review was published on justanotheriphoneblog.com/wordpress, a blog about Apple iPhone.

Further the blog writes about its design, “One of the great things about the Module is how easy it is to install: simply place the iPhone volume rocker-side first, and then snap it right on. The case feels great in the hand, and the LeveRidges really do provide you with extra leverage. The iPhone doesn’t feel wider in the hand, but it certainly does feel thicker, which makes it a lot easier to type (especially in landscape mode).

A small cut-out along the middle of the Module is supposed to provide extra grip for one-handed operation, but I just didn’t find this groove deep enough to really provide any support.”

The major aspect of protection was also mentioned here, “…It will allow you to place your phone screen-up on most any surface, but the phone is basically naked in most every other respect. The fit of the case is good, but likely not tight enough to stay on after any significant impact, especially when you consider that the sides of the case don’t quite make it to the edge of the bezel.”

Finally about the compatibility, the blog writes, “…Portable chargers that attach to the bottom of the iPhone should also still fit as long as they don’t require space along the back of the device.”

In the conclusion, Module offers “the compatibility with all of the earphones and other accessories you may already own.”

“The Module is available for $30 in white or black.” It was great information for me about the Module SmartCase for iPhone.
