Five reasons Android is superior to the iPhone

As I worked on the iPhones, it hit me just how inflexible the iPhone platform is and in how many ways the Android mobile is superior.

  1. Application options. With the Android platform, all you have to do is tap the Menu button to get to the application options, even while the application is running This is very much in line with how PC applications work. However, on the iPhone, you have to go through Settings to get to the application options. Sometimes this is circumvented when iPhone app designers add an Options button within an application — but this leads to inconsistency, because not all applications have options.

Batttle of The Smart Phones-Android vs. iPhone: Mobile Operating Systems

VS      Andriod VS Iphone 3 Watch Video

The topic of smartphone operating systems can be as divisive as politics or the Mac vs. PC debate. (Just add snide comments about dropped calls.)

We delved into our Teach Hunch About You (THAY) questions to figure out what we can learn about Android vs. iPhone users, and our friends at Column Five Media performed some of their infographic magic on the resulting data.  Check out more commentary after the infographic.

The iPad is king of the tablets because on most Android tabs, there isn’t an app for that

Recent sales reports confirm that the Apple iPad continues to lead the tablet computer revolution, owning more than 60 percent of the tablet market.

And it’s not just consumers who are investing in the iPad. Good Technology, a company that manages mobile device deployment for Fortune 100 and 500 companies, issued a report detailing second-quarter tablet trends that show more than 95 percent of all tablet activations were iPads. And although we continue to hear reports that the Android platform is dominant for smartphones, this report shows that for the first time iPad activations outnumbered Android smartphone activations, by almost three percent.

Mac OS X Lion install notes and first impressions

The Mac OS X Lion update was released around 8:45 AM EST and I began downloading it shortly afterward. At home and about 45 minutes into the 4GB download, it was about 50% done but I had to leave, so I closed my MacBook thinking I might lose my progress.

Later at a local Starbucks I was surprised to find that the download resumed automatically once I connected once I was online again.

Total download time was about two hours. Once downloaded, the install took about 35 minutes and after reboot a JAVA update took another ten.

Home video monitors you can view on your smartphone or tablet

VUEZONE HOME SECURITY VIDEO

VUEZONE

Home web cam and surveillance systems used to be complicated and in many cases they required professional installation or assistance to get them up and running.

But now there are quite a few systems on the market that not only are easy to set up but they also come with apps so you can view the video feed on your smartphone or tablet. To give you a sample of what’s out there, I tested four popular systems. Here they are, in no particular order.

Tools to monitor texting and driving and other distractions

Yesterday on the SOS Computer Talk Show (WGUL 860 AM radio) we talked about a report that recently was released by the Governor’s Highway Safety Association (GHSA) which stated that up to 25 percent of all traffic accidents are now related to distracted driving. Distracted driving includes things like fiddling with the stereo or GPS, eating, putting on makeup, talking on a cellphone and yes, texting while driving. Here’s the podcast version of the show, if you want to listen to the discussion.

In a past show, I introduced some gadgets text, update your Facebook status and send a tweet to Twitter while driving without taking your hands from the wheel

Eight great gadgets for college dorms

Join Us SOS Computer Talk Show & Jack Rowland “The Gadget Guy”, For More Of The Coolist Gadgets- Live Streaming Internet Audio.

It’s almost time for college students to begin fall classes, so I thought it would be good to compile a list of gadgets for college dorms and apartments. The obvious ones, like smartphones, laptops, iPads and calculators aren’t listed here because I went for the fun and unique gadgets instead. Take a look and let me know if you’ve found something cool that should be included.

1. The Elite Cuisine Multi-Function 3-In-1 Breakfast Center is a coffee make, toaster oven and griddle all in one. Great for those late-night study sessions, some frozen egg rolls or a short stack of pancakes in the morning before class.

Cyber attack on Gannett targets U.S. soldiers

BOSTON (Reuters) – Hackers broke into a Gannett Co database containing personal information about subscribers to publications read by U.S. government officials, military leaders and rank-and-file soldiers, the media company said on Tuesday.

Gannett told subscribers via email that it discovered the breach of its Gannett Government Media Corp on June 7.

First radio show went well, here’s the podcast in case you missed it

I survived my first SOS Computer Talk Show yesterday on WGUL 860 AM without too much trouble and host Sean O, fellow co-host Chris Lawson and guest Richard Lightle from Knology (the show’s sponsor) gave me a warm welcome.

We talked about a variety of topics including fake pop-up virus alerts on Windows computers, surge protectors for your electronics and gadgets for surviving a hurricane.

If you missed the live show, here’s the podcast version. We’re taking a break for the 4th of July holiday, so we’ll be back on the air on Sunday, July 10 from 12-1 PM.
