Windows 8 first impressions: What happened to ‘no compromises?’

After hours fiddling with the developer preview of Windows 8, we've reached some conclusions. While there's a lot to love, Microsoft still has some work ahead of it to scrub out the past and make the Windows 8 the reinvention it needs to be.

Taking better HDR photos with your iPhone 4

2011-05-27T01:49:00.001-07:00

Amplify’d from www.jailbreakme.ca

Curious about how to take better HDR (high dynamic range) photos with youriPhone 4? Maybe you’ve tried it out but the end result wasn’t as good as you were expecting? Apple makes it pretty easy to take HDR photos, but for some pointers on how to take the best HDR photos possible just follow along after the break!

When Apple introduced iOS 4.1 they included HDR capability for the iPhone 4. This rather basic form of HDR works by combining 3 photos (under-exposed, normally-exposed, and over-exposed) for better overall detail and quality. So instead of the sky looking washed-out or shadows an inky mess, you’re left with a better balanced photo that shows more in both areas.

Apple to unveil new Final Cut Pro at NAB event?

2011-04-06T14:49:00.000-07:00

It's been awhile since a new version of Apple's Final Cut Pro video editing software was released, but that may change at next week's annual National Association of Broadcasters show. A new report from ProVideoCoalition says Apple plans on "taking over" the 10th annual SuperMeet event taking place on April 12 to announce a new version of the software.

The proof there is that some SuperMeet sponsors, including Canon, were purportedly told by event organizers that Apple had chosen SuperMeet as its venue to make the announcement and blocked out all stage time for its introduction. In Canon's case, ProVideoCoalition says that resulted in the camera maker canceling its appearance. The report had also claimed that Avid had its sponsorship cancelled by the event's organizers.

That does not appear immediately appear to be the case though. An Avid representative told CNET that it had nothing to announce with its sponsorship of the event but noted that actor and filmmaker Kevin Smith was no longer slated to speak at the event and will instead be speaking at the company's NAB booth. Blackmagic, which is also slated as a sponsor of the event aimed at video editors on Final Cut Pro and other editing platforms, told CNET that it was still participating and had its "usual booth there and are very excited about the event, as always." The same went for Autodesk, which said that it did not plan to present on the main stage but would be participating in the SuperMeet Digital Showcase.

Canon, AJA, Apple, and the SuperMeet event organizers did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Apple's Final Cut Pro made its debut at NAB in 1998 before being released as a product the following year. The software has a history of April releases, though its last major version came in July 2009. The software itself hasn't been a standalone product for quite a bit longer though, instead being wrapped up as part of Apple's Final Cut Studio suite, which bundles together Final Cut Pro with Motion, DVD Studio, and Soundtrack Pro, as well as the Color and Compressor applications. Apple also offers a standalone, though less feature-filled version of the software called Final Cut Express, which sits between Final Cut Pro and the iMovie software that's included as part of Apple's iLife suite.

Reports began circulating in late February that Apple was nearing completion on a complete overhaul of the software that would bring Final Cut Pro into the 64-bit era and more importantly a release this spring. That report from TechCrunch, which cited anonymous sources, said that the design was both under the hood and sporting a new user interface.

Final Cut Pro is of special interest given the direction Apple's iMovie application has taken over the past few iterations. When first offered, iMovie managed to get some trickle-down features from its more advanced siblings. But Apple has taken iMovie in new directions by offering an alternative to traditional, multi-track video timelines and the visual editing tools that surround them. While that's managed to play well to devices like the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad where iMovie can now be had as a touchscreen application, questions remain about whether such an editing style would work its way up into a pro version of the software.

Updated at 6:30 p.m. PT with comment from Avid.

Update at 9:00 a.m. PT on 4/6: The previous agenda of the event has been scrapped. The page now reads:

The Final Cut Pro User Group Network is excited to have a very special guest presentation at the 10th Annual Las Vegas FCPUG SuperMeet. Come to see a surprise sneak peek at something very special - you really do not want to miss this one!

7 Million Fans Like Leo Messi’s Facebook Page in 7 Hours

2011-04-06T10:08:00.000-07:00

Seven hours after Argentine soccer player Leo Messi started a Facebook Page, he has almost 7 million Likes.

To put that number into perspective, it’s nearly 40% as many Likes as President Obama has on his Facebook Page, and about 30% as many as Justin Bieber fans have contributed to his Facebook Page — but Messi’s Likes were gathered in hours, not years.

Messi, who plays for FC Barcelona and is considered by many to be the best soccer player in the world, wrote in a translated welcome message on the page, “Hola! Welcome to everyone. Thank you very much for the great number of messages that I have received. I am so excited! From now on we will be more closely connected… through Facebook.”

Lady Gaga beat President Obama to 10 million Likes last summer, but we can’t remember another celebrity nearing the milestone so quickly. We’ve reached out to Facebook about whether Messi has set a Facebook record.

LinkedIn's Answer to Facebook's Open Graph

2011-04-06T08:50:00.000-07:00

Professional social network Linkedin has opened up access to a new developer platform today that should bring LinkedIn content, buttons, Twitter-esque "profile summaries" and more to websites throughout the Web.

The platform, though, isn't just for developers. LinkedIn is offering an entire suite of plugins to bring all of this content to your website. Even better, it's making it as easy as the click of a button and it could offer some serious competition to Facebook's Open Graph on sites that cater to the career-minded.

"With this release, we're including a powerful set of new plugins; to further help bring professional identity & insights into your application," writes the company on its blog. "For example, you can show your visitors who they know in a professional context with the Member Profile plugin, and display rich personalized insights about companies featured on your site with the Company Insider plugin."

On top of buttons for sharing websites and recommending products, LinkedIn is offering a set of plugins to display profile summaries, full profiles, company profiles and "company insider." This last plugin shows customized information about a company including who, in the logged-in person's network, works there, a list of new hires and job changes, and even the ability to follow such news. That's the other big offering - a LinkedIn login that supports OAuth 2.0.

The ease with which these features can be implemented will likely be the most exciting point for many non-developers. The plugins take a couple lines of code that can be copied and pasted into a site's code. All you need to do to get a plugin is go to LinkedIn's plugin gallery (as seen below), click on the "Get It" button and paste the code into the site.

Beyond ease of implementation, LinkedIn says that it has also "make significant infrastructure improvements to the platform itself," improving the JavaScript load-time and adding SSL and more robust OAuth support.

With the ability to easily add functionality like hovercard-esque LinkedIn profile summaries and company profiles, we'd be surprised if we didn't start seeing more LinkedIn content around the Web. Just as TechCrunch displays information about the companies mentioned in its article pulled from CrunchBase, other blogs and sites could now display LinkedIn information, which has the advantage of being fully interactive with the viewer's LinkedIn profile. While someone may not want to login to certain sites using their Facebook identity, this and the potential interaction with LinkedIn data and social graph could boost LinkedIn's presence on the Web drastically.

What do you think? Will the lure of profile summaries, company information and customized company profiles get you to second guess your login of choice on some sites? And how many sites will abandon Facebook to bring in the LinkedIn social graph instead?

iPhone 5 not Coming on June ?

2011-04-06T07:40:00.000-07:00

Loop Insight killed the rumors floating on the web regarding iPhone 5 release date, the last few hours many blogs claimed that iPhone 5 will arrive by next June, but now Loop Insight has received word from their sources that iPhone 5 will not launch on June.

Reports on Tuesday suggest Apple will unveil the iPhone 5 at the end of June. This is not true. My sources said today that rumors of an iPhone 5 release at the end of June were completely false.

Anyway, we are still in the rumors phase, so we expect to hear more and more, but till now it's highly expected to see WWDC 2011 free of new hardware. Let's wait and see.

iPod Touch 5G Leaked - 128 GB - No-Physical Home Button!

2011-04-06T07:26:00.000-07:00

According to Crunch Gear, iPod touch 5G Images have been leaked in the wild with non-physical home button button. The device is running firmware 4.2.1MC14, carries 128GB storage and is marked model MC550LL. The device also has aluminum back, which is rumored to exist on the unreleased iPhone 5.

Marked with the "DVT-1" badge found on the earlier examples of the iPod Touch discovered in 2010 that sported front and back cameras, this model has 128GB of memory, is running firmware 4.2.1MC14 and is marked model MC550LL which points to a Mac Pro model as well as a permutation of the 4th Gen iPod Touch.

Its thought the perhaps the device could be a prototype or tester that made it into the wild.

Run Android Apps on Windows PC using Bluestacks

2011-04-06T07:16:00.000-07:00

Have you ever wanted to try out an Android app without needing for Android Device handy ? then you must try outBluestacks !!

You may want to know what is BlueStacks and what does it do, alright it is simply a basically virtualization for Android, all what you have to do is to install BlueStacks on your Windows and Automatically the software will allow you to run an instance of Android right inside the app. From here the experience is just like having an Android device – except the phone calling thing.

Well there is nothing new in the app as we’ve been doing it for years with VMware or Parallels but this is the first time a mobile operating system has been invited to the party. Of course, why you’d really want to run Android on your computer we’re not entirely sure, but we’ve no doubt it will float someone’s boat out there.

Right now the BlueStacks website isn’t quite behaving itself and downloading the virtualization software is easier said than done, but if Android on Windows is your particular bag then keep trying, we’re assured it does work eventually!
Now if you’ll excuse us, we’re off to run Android, in Windows, in OS X on a Mac – just to see if the world implodes.

This App you can smell and taste it [Humor]

2011-04-06T07:04:00.000-07:00

Yummy, did you smelled this Aroma ? it taste good, April fools day is long gone, but we thought we would let our readers in on a joke gone viral. Fox News San Diego’s Raoul Martinez pranked his co-anchor, Shally Zomorodi, into believing a new iOS app, Shock Top, left users smell and taste food. The result is pure fun.

Not only did Zomorodi eventually smell an iPad, but she proceeded to lick the iDevice too. Once she realized it was a joke, she left the stage, obviously embarrassed. Check the Video out :

On a lazy Wednesday, perhaps you too could trick somebody with the Shock Top app, available for free in the App Store.

Consumer Reports: iPad 2 the best tablet available

2011-04-05T09:21:00.000-07:00

Apple’s uber-successful iPad 2 now has a Consumer Electronics stamp of approval, with the consumer magazine proclaiming the WiFi+3G version of the iconic device the best tablet available on the market. iPad 2 has beaten Motorola Xoom to the tablet punch, in addition to a bunch of would-be iPad killers from Archos, Dell, Motorola, Samsung and ViewSonic.

Consumer Reports put out a press release quoting their electronics editor Paul Reynolds:

So far, Apple is leading the tablet market in both quality and price, which is unusual for a company whose products are usually premium priced. However, it’s likely we’ll see more competitive pricing in tablets as other models begin to hit the market.

iPad 2 emerged on top despite Consumer Reports calling the Xoom “the iPad 2′s chief rival.”

What gave me a pause is the fact that a pricey iPad model topped the charts, not the entry-level $499 model. The $730 32GB WiFi+3G model scored Excellent in nearly every category, leaving the $800 Xoom in the dust.

They evaluated the tablets on seventeen different criteria. Apple’s slate does have legendary battery life, the results show.

Consumer Reports measured 12.2 hours of non-stop video playback on iPad 2 versus its rated ten-hour battery life. The Archos 70 Internet Tablet has the poorest battery that lasts just 3.8 hours.
