Five ways Windows 8 is better than iOS and Android

• When introduced it showed that would be great for touch screen use
• These are some ways it's better

1. Picture password: It face recognition and it works by you selecting a picture and you have to make three of the same facial structures 
2. Easy gesture-based app switching: using the "Recent App" app, you can swipe from the left edge of the device will immediately pull up the last app you used. 
3. Fat fingers are no longer a issue: Windows 8 has a split screen keyboard
4. Chromeless, full screen app experiences: There are no menu bars, task bars, or navigational buttons permanently pinned to the display.
5. Home screen style and utility:  In Windows 8, app icons are live tiles, either square or rectangular in shape, but always consistent in their basic look and feel.

No iPhone leads 700,000 customers to flee T-Moblie

• T-mobile is the only cell phone carrier that does not have the iPhone, and that hurts 
• Because of this it was the only national carrier to lose customers last quarter.
• All along 2011 T-mobile was shredding contracts, though towards the end it slowed
• Once Sprint came out with the iPhone and the iPhone 4s came out T-Mobile had no chance
• T-Mobile wants to get the iPhone chipset does not support that band. 
• T-Mobile has 25 million subscribers and Verizon has 87 million
• I think this might be one of the reasons they brought that cute girl in the commercials, to get people's attention

Amazon earnings OK, but stock slides 10%

At $400 billion, Apple is worth more than Greece

• On Thursday Apple's price on the stock market amount was at high at over $400 billion dollars
• This was a high even for this high value company.
• By midday though it returned to under that, but for that brief moment As stated by Cnn.com " Apple's market cap is higher than the gross domestic product of Greece, Austria, Argentina, or South Africa. "
• Some people believe this rise was that everyone is expecting a iPad 3 which was thought from by the decline in iPad 2 prices.
• Well in this case I might want to put some money into the stock market there.

First look at Nintendo's Wii U

• Nintendo is coming out with a new gaming device that has a touch screen controller
• This changes how games are changing
• The demo took place at this week's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas 
• The difference lies in the special in the controller which gives people new things to think about.
• The Controller lets people see what other people would see on the Linked up TV
• As said by Cnn.com "For example: In the "Chase Mii" demo game that CNNMoney tried, two to four players with regular controllers try to catch the player with the touchscreen.The regular players simply see their avatars running around on the TV, while the Wii God sees an overhead map on the touchscreen, which shows where everyone else is running."
•  This works with single player, though their was only one demo game they showed
• Though they didn't REALLY show how the game worked, they just moved the map
• No date or amount are showed yet

Organization. . . NO I DON'T

      I have never been an organized person. The uses for my computer are very easy to get to. There is really only two things on the computer. The first is school work. For this all I need is to type in Gmail and I am working on my homework. If I am not using Gmail, then I am just using Google to look for research. When I am doing my homework I listen to music. For this I had put Youtube and Pandora on my tab bar. This makes it for easy access. I use Youtube to look up songs that I want to look up after hearing somewhere, or for specific songs I want to listen to. I use Pandora for all music, when I feel lazy.

         For storing photos I just put them in my laptops documents, under photos, under random names. For storing Documents, I use Google Docs all the time so I don't have to worry about it. I do not use anything else in this case of storing items. I do not have hierachical system because I have everything equally used.
         Tagging is you attach a label to something. Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to organize, store, manage and search for bookmarks of resources online. These two are important because tagging helps you and or a friend remember or find something in a website. Social bookmarking is what happens when you put the bookmark so that you can get to them on another computer.
