Windows 8 will have its own app store

MicrosoftaBy Suzanne ChoneyThe next version of Microsoft's operating system, Windows 8, will include an app store so that software can be downloaded directly from the online store to the computer.aMicrosoft follows Apple's lead by doing this; Apple started its Mac App Store last January, and has showcased it as being the main way to buy its new operating system, OS X Lion.aWhile word has been that the app store direction was where Microsoft was headed, a recent posting on the company's own blog confirmed it, with an ever-so-slight, but significant, inclusion of it in a long list of working Windows 8 groups. (Msnbc.com is a Microsoft-NBC Universal joint venture.)aAs one of our colleagues noted last spring, another website "beat Microsoft to the punch with its own Windows app store, Allmyapps.com,"...

48% of Google+ users never made a public post

Google+ had a shooting start with over 20 million users but according to many reports the service has started to stagnate. A Data mining visualization of Google+ shows that a large chuck of its users never used the service at all. It appears so that many people just wanted to join to see what all the hype was about, and then never bothered with it again. The visualization shows that the G+ activity is centered around a few group of people with tenuous links to other half. These core users might be the alpha testers who came and stick with the service while  for other new users, Google+ was just an overhead burden with already other social networks to handle. I had same opinion about Google+. Although a commendable alternate to facebook, but with all my friends network...

South Korean iPhone Owners Seek Damages from Apple

The suit filed in Changwon District Court by the law firm Miraelaw on Wednesday asks the court to award damages of 27 billion won (US$26 million).

Nokia CEO: Google-Motorola deal a “sign of danger”

Nokia’s controversial CEO, Stephen Elop, has heeded caution over the recent Google-Motorola partnership, saying he sees “signs of danger” for other Android manufacturers. “If I happened to be someone, an Android manufacturer or an operator, anyone with a stake in that environment, I would be picking up my phone and calling certain executives at Google and saying ‘I see signs of danger,’” Elop told an business forum in Helsinki today. Google gobbled up Motorola’s mobility division for a cool $12.5 billion this week, buying itself into a host of patents, which many believe, is a collective effort to combat Apple and Microsoft’s suing habits. Nokia too is serving under a partnership with Microsoft, promoting it to dump its decade old mobile operating system, Symbian,...

Apple being sued for nearly $26 million in South Korea

It came to light in April that Apple was storing location data from its iPhone and iPad users, for up to a year. Apparently a “bug” allowed Apple to collect anonymous data on their servers even when the location services were turned off. A later update fixed this problem where Apple now says that they only store location data for up to 7 days on iPhones, also that the data is being encrypted and not being stored on users computers. However, the damage has already been done. In May, Kim Hyung-souk, a lawyer, won 1 million Won ($932) in compensation after he filed a case against Apple for breach of privacy. Earlier this month the Korea Communications Commission (KCC) ordered Apple to pay a 3 million Won fine for violating South Korea’s location information laws....
