This is becoming more famous, along with mobile banking, the payment of goods in a store with a mobile phone. This is good for technological advancement and it shows how much we have evolved from paying with paper money to paying electronically. But, there is a downside to this, since it is electronic, it is not very safe because people can hack your mobile phone and steal your money. This fits the eLifestyle tag because it represents how our lives are different with electronics, than it was 50 years ago.

Suprise suprise, Mark Zuckenberg announced at a confrence on september 23rd, that facebook is once agian, going to change in the nearby future. Soon, we will all get a timeline on our facebook's accounts, showing all of our music we listen to, media we listen into, and lifestyle actions and interactions with their profiles. Personally, I think that facebook needs to stop changing, and leave it the way it is, due to the fact many people are starting to disactivate there accounts, for being so confusing, and also, making it easier to get stalked. Twitters ratings are now growing, because twitter is simply much more simple then facebook.

I personally don't have Facebook, but I've heard that the "Poke" feature is rather annoying and useless. During the launch of the new Facebook subscribe button, it was noted that the Poke button is hidden in the settings menu, where most will never see it. Facebook users are not projected to miss it, either. Many people rarely use it, and the ultimate use of the button itself has gone undefined. Perhaps the next best thing for Facebook would be to kill the Poke and install something new, what with the radical change of the new Facebook Timeline approaching. Unless they hear otherwise, I think they should just kill the Poke and have a proper funeral.

I'm sure you're already aware of this, but Amazon announced its first tablet - a 7-inch device called the Kindle Fire - at a press event in New York on Wednesday. However, for many months now, rumors have claimed the company has been working on two tablets, one of which is a larger 10-inch device that is reportedly the real iPad competitor.

The shoe that many sneaker heads have been waiting to be released has come. The new Nike Air Mag shoes. These shoes have an automatic lacing system and automatic ankle strap adjuster. You are able to loosen and tighten everything with the click of a button. The shoes even light up, to make it even more appealing.

Not bad, for $6000!!!

ow that we're coming into the final stretch before the iPhone 4S is released, photos, videos and even a few benchmarks have begun to trickle online by people who have received their shipments ahead of October 14. Earlier today we were treated to a nice video by Stuff.tv that demonstrated a few of Siri's many abilities out in real world conditions - currency exchanges, temperatures and alarms setups. Now we have a much more thorough video from one lucky YouTube user that features the depth of Siri's knowledge along with a few oddball questions for good measure. Conclusion? Siri is looking more and more impressive by the day.

Research In Motion is on a quest for goodwill after last week's massive outage that left BlackBerry users without service for three days. The company just took to the wires and announced that over a $100 worth of premium apps will eventually be free for a limited time and enterprise users will also net one month of free technical support. RIM hopes SIM 3, Bejeweled, N.O.V.A. and many more will help calm the nerves those BlackBerry users thinking of jumping ship.

This drone is quite impressive because not only can this drone fly it is able to adapt to many obstacles that it may encounter such as being hit by something, in which case the drone would still be able to absorb the impact and continue flying. The drone also has the ability to move vertically and horizontally at speeds up to 60 mph. I find this drone incredible, and something that may lead to the future of our armed forces.

Over the years Apple has come out with many amazing computers but now they made some improvements. they have improved the processor, graphics chips, making the speed faster, and also smaller computers but with so much storage. it seams that this computer has lots of amazing improvements and i defiantly would go and buy this.

Phew. I'm glad we've decided to catch up. Keep going.

Ok for some reason the comment isn't pooping up... i'll write it again... Now Apple had recently been put in a chokehold by a couple of reasons, so Google has a chance to saddle up and steal the show, but time will tell if they can pull it off or screw up, FOCUS GOOGLE!

Twitter is testing out new design changes which makes the main Twitter timeline expandable so that you can see media and related information right in the timeline instead of off to the side or clicking off to another page. They have started the testing on a few clients and if it is successful, they plan to make it permanent. I think this is a bad idea because it will just add complications. Besides, if I wanted to see the news, i would just go on another page.

Twitter is testing out new design changes which makes the main Twitter timeline expandable so that you can see media and related information right in the timeline instead of off to the side or clicking off to another page. You can now open a tweet and see how many people retweeted it, see the threaded conversation related to the tweet or related photos or vidoes. When looking at a picture, you wont have to open another page just to see it, it will come up on the same page and you will be able to exit it.

Apple tries to make many of their products very easy to use but now Apple has made something very complicated. The new iCloud is actually very difficult to work with. One advantage is that downloading it is free. But the disadvantage is that if you were with MobileMe and now switching to iCloud its complicated to download and can make you go crazy. So is iCloud really that easy?
