Steve Jobs hétfői termékbemutatóján szükségesnek érezte, hogy reagáljon az elmúlt hetek egyik híres adatára, miszerint naponta kétszázezer androidos készüléket aktiválnak a világban. állítása szerint iOS-es készülékből viszont napi 230 ezer ilyen kérés fut be hozzájuk, ami egy kis utánaszámolással is kideríthető, hogy nem nagyon jön össze - hetente kellene ehhez bemutatni egy-egy iPhone 4-kategóri...
Google Wave is far from dead, and developers, early adopters and enterprises will be glad to hear it. Today Google announced it will expand on the code it has already open sourced, building Wave into a functional application that will allow users to run wave servers, host their own waves and build bigger and better applications with the real-time collaboration technology.
"Since the beginning, ...

If you happen to be walking around New York’s Times Square and look up at one of the jumbotrons, you may see a cartoon animation of a crafty-looking 3-D animated Eric Schmidt, chief executive of Google, luring little children from an ice cream truck in attempt to cajole secrets out of them. Suffice to say, this is not one of Google’s cool new ad campaigns.
The 540-squ...

Megérkezett hozzám is a Gmail legújabb szolgáltatása a Fontos levelek . Mondjuk eddig is csillagozással jelölgettem a számomra fontos leveleket, remélem ez az új szolgáltatás segít majd jobban kiválogatni a sok szemét közül a hasznos dolgokat. Első nekifutásra egész jó eredményt produkált. Mivel tanítható dologról van szó, a későbbiekben egyre jobban fogja tudni, hogyan is kell ezt csinálni. ...
Back in the early 90's whilst playing our Atari Lynx -- friendless and alone, of course -- we couldn't have imagined that a second-rate spinoff of the popular Gauntlet franchise would unlock the secrets behind the birth of Google's Android OS. But, lo and behold, what has one of our faithful tipsters found down here, amongst the ruins of Gauntlet: The Third Encounter ? That's right, nearly irrefu...
Twice an hour, an animated version of Google CEO Eric Schmidt can currently be seen giving away free ice cream to little kids in return for their private information on a 540 square foot screen hovering over New York's Times Square. The cartoon was produced by a " Inside Google ," a project of the non-partisan Consumer Watchdog group, that wants to draw attention to what it perceives as Go...

It’s hard to believe that two years have passed since the Chrome browser first hit the web. In that time, Chrome has come to control more than 7.5% of the worldwide browser market, according to Net Marketshare . Sure, Internet Explorer and Firefox hold 60.4% and 22.9% respectively, but if one considers that after 10 years, Opera holds less than 2.4%, then it’s fairly impressive. Now, on ...
If you are a veteran Google search user (and someone who likes to dig in and see what else you can do with a tool), you’d know that you could get a lot out of it by using various search operators and keywords. For starters, just typing in “weather in new york” would instantly show you the current weather conditions in NY in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. You could use the search tab as a calculato...
Engem speciel szórakoztat, amikor a Google I/O-n csipkedi Vic Gundotra az Apple-t, és ugyanígy, ha Steve Jobs teszi ezt a Google-lal. Ugyanakkor az ostoba számháborút igazán abbahagyhatnák már a srácok. Tegnap Steve Jobs mondta azt, hogy ők úgy gondolják, "barátaik" a telefonaktiválási statisztikájukba beleszámolják az OS-frissítéseket is. Ezzel egyértelműen Eric Schmidt (Google CEO) múlt hónap...

Application security, piracy and prevention all are hot topics recently, with good reason. Without a robust application marketplace, that hundreds of thousands of new activations each month number isn't going to be maintainable, and a robust market isn't possible without the backing of developers. We've seen that Android has a built-in solution to prevent piracy , and we've also see...
Google has launched a new major version of its 3D modeling tool SketchUp: version 8. This comes ten years after the launch of version 1.
Google says there are over a million people using SketchUp. "That's a pretty humbling number of 3D model makers," says SketchUp Product Manager John Bacus.
The new version comes with new geo-modeling capabilities that leverage Google's col...

Last month, Google CEO Eric Schmidt noted that Google was activating 200,000 Android devices a day . Obviously, that’s a massive number. Today during the Apple event in San Francisco, Steve Jobs took the chance to one up him — then take a shot at Google.
Apple is activating 230,000 iOS devices a day, Jobs says. He made a thinly veiled reference to the Android numbers, and said “ we think some o...
