'Unwitting' thief helps police by uploading picture of himself on victim's Facebook pag... - 1 views

  •  
    When most thieves commit a crime they try to get away from police. However looks like karma got back at a man who stole a woman's cell phone. He tried uploading a picture onto facebook through her phone but the phone was set to automatically post it to her wall. This gives police pretty much all they need to catch him.

Your Cheating Heart: iPhone App Finds Wife With Another Man - Yahoo! - 0 views

  •  
    Recently apple released the iPhone 4s. With it, they released an app called find my friends, with that app, you can track someone (if they first agree) which can be helpful in finding someone at a crowded place. However, it's already wrecked the marriage of a new york couple when a husband was able to catch his wife cheating through this app. What does this say about the future of privacy? Everyday people have less and less of it.

YouTube Now Allows Music Partners To Sell Merchandise, Digital Downloads And Event Tick... - 0 views

  •  
    TItle pretty much sums it up. Now you can buy merchandise, event tickets and digital downloads through youtube. I think this will help make youtube more popular and help them make money off of it because more than 800 million people per month visit the site and 3 billion videos are watched per day.

Can Google's Upcoming MP3 Store Compete With iTunes? - 0 views

  •  
    Google is coming up with a digital music store to try and compete with itunes. I doubt it can. Itunes is pretty much dominating the market for music. (out of the ones where you buy the music). So far though, they're having trouble getting clearence from music labels because google in the past has been soft of music piracy.

Firefox 7 stops wbsites from resizing your windows, which has a negative effect on add-ons. But Firefox doesn't seem to worried.

Technology News: iPad: The iPad's Powerful Academic Potential - 1 views

  •  
    Certain schools are introducing the ipad as an alternative to textbooks. This makes it easier to learn but raises questions on whether or not this is fair. Not every school is going to be able to afford this. This would give the students in the schools that do have them a huge academic advantage, especially in standardized tests and future job opportunities.
