Las Vegas was pretty much the world capital of technology and gadget geekery from January 7-10 of this year, as it hosted the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show (2010 International CES). While many of the gadgets featured at CES seemed to be riding on a 3D craze (inspired by James Cameron’s smash-hit Avatar?), everyone was talking about this one mobile phone that had come out just ahead of the show. We are, of course, talking about the Nexus One, the Android-powered smartphone from Google. Yes, Virginia, the Nexus One is out. Formally launched at a press event in California on January 5, Google made a point of making the phone available to as many users as is possible: you can get it via Google (http://www.google.com/phone/?locale=en_US&s7e=) at a price of USD529 (PHP24,330.01), unlocked and untethered to any mobile provider. This means that anyone can pick up a unit, stick their own SIM card in, and be able to use it right there and then. The phone is also available via T-Mobile in the US, priced at USD179 (PHP8262.72) and coming with a two-year contract. |

The login page for Facebook, which reportedly boasts 350 million users worldwide. Having spent most of 2009 implementing changes and tweaks to its site-wide privacy policies, the popular social media and networking site Facebook unveiled yet another series of changes on December 9. Foremost among these was the elimination of “networks”, which had previously allowed people who lived or worked in a certain area or went to school at a particular institution to share social information. The new privacy settings now allow the site’s users to control who sees posts, content, and media uploaded to personal profiles and pages. |

Microsoft Office PowerPoint, 2007 edition. Did you know that August 2009 marks the twenty-fifth birthday of Microsoft Office PowerPoint? The brainchild of Robert Gaskins and Dennis Austin of Forethought, Inc., PowerPoint was initially designed for Macintosh computers (ah, irony!) under the name “Presentation”, all the way back in 1984. Three years later, in 1987, Forethought was acquired by Microsoft and became its Graphics Business Unit – and the software, by then sporting the familiar moniker of “PowerPoint”, continued to undergo further development. |
