FACEBOOK, APPLE AND GOOGLE

FACEBOOK

“Like” Button

Thumbs Up! Yes I am talking about the “Like” button of FaceBook which was released in April. From now on the button will be loaded with three new features.

1. Like items in the apps – Now you are able to dig into applications and like elements in it (earlier you could like application only).
2. Link “Like” button to pages – In simple words this means that I can create a “Like” button for my blog and include it on another blog or website.
3. Choose Layout for “Like” button – “Box count” layout shows the number of likes above the button.  

MyTake: These new features means very little to me. Why? Well in the end people will like your blog or article only when they enjoy reading it so if the blog or article is boring then these features will of no use.

Guidelines To App Developers  http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=mta08-20&l=bil&camp=213689&creative=392969&o=1&a=B003UC1MRA

Apple released guidelines for application developers to understand them even better. There are about 250,000 apps. Good thing is that it eases developer license agreements on use of third party development tools for creating apps for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

MyTake: 250,000 apps are already more than enough for us. This guideline rejects fart apps which are cobbled together in few days.So no need to suffer apps that contains bugs and finally crashes.

GOOGLE

Losers!

It seems Google is loosing on every front. Americans prefer to use FaceBook for socializing then searching on Google. According to rough estimates last month people spent 41.1 billion minutes on FaceBook compared to 39 billion minutes on Google. In addition to this YouTube is still not profitable as Google wanted to be.

MyTake: People will continue to use Google for searching information. Let’s hope Google’s new release "Google Instant" may come to their rescue.
