Lately much has been said that it is very cost effective to develop applications for smartphones for the future of business, but how true is that it is very profitable? although there are impressive success stories how Instagram which was bought by Facebook for a billion dollars, but what about other applications, as there are thousands of them.

For in App Promo have done a study using surveys of mobile application developers and got a very revealing data as it shows that most developers do not even get back what you invested in developing the application.

And to illustrate this information they have created an infographic called “ Wake up call ”:

These are the hard facts that we can see:

• 80% of developers does not recover their investment.
• 59% of applications do not generate any profit.
• 68% have invested $ 5,000 or less with their most successful application.
• 63% of developers have less than 50,000 downloads for their successful application.
• 52% spent less than 5% of the time in promoting apps.
• 52% spent $ 0 on marketing.

Although we also see some data are less successful and failures, but not all doom and gloom, because as we can see a point less exploited is the marketing application. For it App Promo have also created a guide called “The Necessity of Mobile App Marketing: What It Really Takes to Succeed with a Mobile App”.

How many CDs or DVDs you tried to read or copy and but you could not do it because its damaged, CD Recovery Toolbox is a tool that will allow us to recover data from CD, DVD, Blu-Ray  by analyzing the optical disc.

Its use is simple, so we have to do is select the CD from which the file we want to recover, then select where you want to save and select the files and folders to recover.

If you have a problem with any optical storage device with this application you can fix them quickly and easily. We cannot recover the contents of the CD unless it is damaged on the region where the particular file is stored.

 The CD Recovery Toolbox Free tool scans any CD and DVD disks and finds files and folders located there. We should mention that there can be some information on the disk that cannot berecovered. Not all of the files and folders can be found – that depends on the degree and location of the damage. Therefore, the CD Recovery Toolbox Free tool finds the possible maximum amount of information. After that, it shows a list of all files and folders available for recovery. Now the user can select the files and folders to be recovered. Those specific objects will be recovered while the others will be ignored. The program recovers the maximum amount of information in the damaged file. This reduces the risk of data loss considerably.

Main features of CD Recovery Toolbox:

• Recovering information from any CD and DVD disks
• Recovering files larger than 4 Gb
• Detecting possible lack of free space on the hard disk for storing the recovered files

CD Recovery Toolbox Free is absolutely free. Anyone can install it on the computer and use the program as much as you like it. This fact is one of its main advantages over the rival software. Moreover, the functionality of the tool is equal to that of most paid software.

As for the fact that practically every PC user needs a tool for recovering information from CD and DVD disks, there is no doubt about it. As you know, these storage media are the most widely spread nowadays. They are rather capacious, all-purpose, durable and, what’s important, inexpensive. The problem is – they aren’t very reliable. A small scratch can result in a failure to read the information recorded on the disk. And the ways you can get this scratch are numerous – for example, the disk can fall down or suffer from careless handling.

Facebook is planning to charge $ 2 to their users for a highlighted status update. I discovered it from Stuff.co.nz , almost by accident, thanks to a user resident of New Zealand, who initially believed that it was a scam. On the contrary, the spokeswoman for Facebook, Mia Garlick, confirmed that indeed it was a new feature that was tested by the company.

So far we have the news that the user would have the option of highlighting their status, both text or image, which would differ from the rest by having a yellow background . This would allow the post to get much attention in the news section of each of our friends.

The prominent location of this state is not yet sure if it is known that the company reserves the top spots for sponsored stories, so one might assume that occupy a third or fourth .

“We are constantly testing new features on the site. This particular test is simply to gauge the interest of people in this way to share with their friends, “said Garlick.Facebook was trialling the feature at a range of different price points, including offering it free. If this new feature finally works, surely Facebook will be adding lots of $ to their account .

The question is, this feature might generate conflicts? For example, what if we decided to hide updates from a friend and he pays $ 2 to highlight their status. Do we like that? And on the other hand, assuming that this feature would be available only to users, and not for pages, wont it be possible that companies will start using user profiles for their ads?

Personally, I don’t like this idea. I think the Facebook timeline would end by becoming a tremendous mess of different states and colors, plus the problems that could be generated, as mentioned above and full of advertising.

The WiNToBootic is a very simple to use, lightweight and beautiful programme for Windows 7 USB Boot Disk Maker. Only these qualities are enough to recommend and test.  However, during my testing the application proved extremely fast and can format USB.

It lets you make USB Bootble in just 3 steps as shown below

Just run the application, Select the USB, Select the ISO file, Click do it and you are done!

You can see its comparison with other USB Boot Disk Maker, and it shows that its one of the best Bootable disk maker for windows 7 available in market.

This tool can only support the NTFS partition format, so if you have FAT32 you will also need to confirm a quick format.

Another great thing about WiNToBootic is the fact that this application doesn’t need to be installed in order to run, thus allowing you to take it with you and go help out a friend in need, whenever you feel like it.

Summing up, WiNToBootic is an awesome application that truly represents the ultimate way to create Windows USB Boot Disks.

During the Mobile World Congress in February, Microsoft released the Consumer Preview of Windows 8 and received great reviews. However it is almost to step into a new phase and the Redmond is aware of it,that is why he announced Release the Preview of windows 8 available during the first week of June .

The news was released by Microsoft during the conference “Windows 8 Dev Days” held in Japan, and shared it to the world via the Twitter account of Building Windows 8 . No doubt this will be the real test for the new operating system developers.

The Release Preview will be the latest development version which will be available before the official launch of Windows 8. This means that users will be able to appreciate many of the elements that form part of the final version (and their variants) before it reaches the market in October.

During the ad is not provided many details about the launch. The only thing confirmed is that the Release Preview will be ready in the first week of June and immediately be made available on the web.

I hope that the new beta offers a better Metro interface using a mouse, as it was one of the weakest aspects of the Consumer Preview. Till then you can try consumer preview on your pc.

The video game Call of Duty and its versions are one of the most successful games ever. After the successful launch of Modern Warfare 3 in November last year (which generated proceeds of 400 million dollars in just 24 hours), Activision has a new title and we can see that next week.

The newest member of the Call of Duty series will be introduced worldwide on May 1, during the telecast of the NBA Playoffs. This was confirmed through the official website of the Game, which now shows a countdown clock till that date.

A peculiarity of this page is that it includes 14 “classified documents” to be unveiled before the deadline arrives. Clearly the intent of the creators of the series is to provide insights of the game. The biggest rumours were of the release of Black Ops 2.

A few days ago was leaked on the web, a poster with the seal of Activision and Treyarch would belong to the sequel to the hit title released in November 2010. So far there are not many more details, so you have to wait until next week for news.

Recall that, thanks to its 25 million copies sold, Call of Duty: Black Ops is considered the best selling video game of all time in the U.S., UK and the rest of Europe. Will it be overtaken by the new version?
