All Things Technology

I have a very interesting piece that I will like to share with you today. I have seen so many wonderful blogs, businesses and goals go down the drain simply because their owners were frustrated or couldn't continue with their dreams anymore. I weep whenever I see these things.

Imagine 10 years from now when wearables become mainstream and we’re over-accessorized with wearables from head to toe. Suited for almost any application or lifestyle, HIRIS is looking to turn the single-functioning wearable on its head. 

Am confuse here.

Counterpoint data shows that Apple sold more handsets(74 million) than Samsung in the fourth quarter of 2014; thus took the position of the South Korean tech giant. Strategy Analytics says the two phone makers were neck and neck in the same period with the two companies shipping same number of handsets and held 19% market share. International Data Corporation(IDC), on the other hand, says it was a near tie. But noted that Samsung still remains world's biggest smartphone vendor

According to an email I received from someone who prefers to remain anonymous, notorious black hat
hacking group Lizard Squard is planning to take down the following websites: TheGuardian.co.uk, Telegraph.co.uk and the NewYorkTimes.com. The he/she says the hacking group also has plans to hack six other websites. ''This is not a threat;it's a decision'' wrote the tipster. But strongly advise them to keep a close watch on their ''in-house'' journalists.

So what does this M9 features that makes it better than the current M8?
 The colours shown here are the same one you can get in the current M8: Slate Grey, White/Silver, Gold, Red, Blue, Pink. You like a different colour? Why not ask me any colour you like and I will design it!
-Newer, more slimmer design. (my first attempt on a HTC ONE M9 was a bit too unrealistic, this design is more similar to the current M8)

No public company in the world has ever recorded such a profit in three months. Apple  made history when it revealed on Tuesday that it sold a staggering 74.4 million iPhone 6 smartphones in the last quarter of 2014, and raking in $18 billion in net profit and $74.6 billion in revenue.

Well, it was earlier thought to ship in the United States of America in March, but we just heard from the horse mouth that Apple's first wearable device, Watch, will start selling in April. Gay CEO of the company Timothy Cook made the announcement during the company's first quarter earnings call this morning.

Samsung and HTC are not the only companies to show off new smartphones at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain come March 2. Chinese smartphone maker, Huawei Technologies. has revealed that it will unveil the Successor to the Ascend P7, the P8, and the Ascend Mate 7 Mini, called the  Huawei Mate7 Compact. It looks like Huawei will let go of the Ascend branding on its next flagship handset this time around.

I believe by now you are aware that Twitter has enabled tweet translation across its Microblogging platform. This lets  translate tweets written in other languages into your language for better understanding. The feature is only accessible to Android, iOS and desktop users---via your preferred browser. But not everyone knows how to enable this feature, so I will show just how to do it.

Well,it looks like Windows 10 operating system is a subscription service to me. Microsoft revealed,while unveiling the newest Windows operating system on Tuesday, that  the Windows 10 will come as a free upgrade to those whose computers are running Windows 7 or Windows 8.1(that's include Windows Phone owners).

Just a day after announcing that it is banning anyone who downloads and installs the unauthorized WhatsApp Plus application,  the company has made the instant messaging app available to desktop users. Now you can free yourself from all those 'back doors'' installation of WhatsApp on your computers. All you have to do is pair your  Android,Windows or BlackBerry smartphone with WhatsApp installed to your computer. And you can start sending messages to your friends and love ones as you would on your smartphone.

Your favourite instant messaging application WhatsApp is reportedly banning its users who download and install the Android app,WhatsApp Plus, a third party app that allows users to modify chat screens and other features not supported in official WhatsApp. The ban lasts for 24 hours.

I have said it so many a time that Samsung is way ahead of Apple, but you guys find it so hard to agree with me. Apple's visual control technology patent is somewhat similar to the smart scroll feature on the Galaxy S4. Yes, the S4 for that matter. The Smart Scroll feature uses the front camera to sense when you are looking at your device, and it scrolls through content such as lists, webpages, and messages based on the angle you hold the device. Still in doubt? To activate Smart Scroll, from the Home screen, touch Menu > Settings > My device > Smart screen > Smart scroll. Touch the slider to turn Smart Scroll on .  Apple is just a copycat!

Yes, that's according to the New York Times and Der Spiegel.
The newspapers cited US officials and leaked documents from the National Security Agency.
The New York Times said hidden software had alerted US intelligence services to North Korean hacking activity.

News coming from Blommberg has it that Taiwanese smartphone maker HTC will launch a new smartphone called the One M9 with a 20-MP rear camera, an Ultrapixel(4MP or below) front camera and audio features, and also a fitness-focused smartwatch at Mobile World Congress in March.

Hey guys, sorry for not keeping  you guys up-to-date on the latest technology news. l was attending to some 'serious' issues. Anyway am back and ready to roll.

Yes, I just found out that Google will stop selling the current version of its $1500 internet-connected eyewear called Glass to interested buyers as from tomorrow. This is to make room for a more improved model of the wearable device(which is expected to sell later this year under CEO of Nest Labs Tony Fadell. It has recently announced that it will shut down the Google Glass Explorer program.

Before I proceed, let me ask you a question: How much time do you spend on Facebook? Personally, I don't even know how much time I spend on the online social networking service. But, if I should make a guess I think nowadays,due to the nature of my job, I spend 3 hours on Facebook. Oh,I was wrong! from what this app stats shows---6 hours. That's so bad of me.
