“Cloud Computing” seems to be the order of the day, with almost all the major internet giants focusing on it, and while it still is confusing for many of the users, the term actually is becoming largely popular in modern times. The prominence of Cloud Computing got great prominence on June 6th when probably the most tech savoir-faire company in the world, Apple, proclaimed their very own cloud service. Steve Jobs, the CEO took the centre stage with his keynote speech and announced the iCloud. Now, the question is, is the iCloud worth and what exactly is it? The Cloud computing actually is a lot simpler than what it sounds. It would become a lot easier to understand if you think the term “Cloud” as “Internet”, which makes the entire cloud computing a simple service and software which is operated and offered over internet. It should be noted that Apple isn’t  [...]

Apple released a software updated on Wednesday morning for iPad, iPod Touch, and iPhone devices that would fix a location storage method which raised concerns about privacy last month. The update is called iOS version 4.3.3 and it reduces the file size which stores geodata on the iOS devices. This means that it won’t contain location data history which goes back to one year ago. Apart from that, when you install the update, iTunes will not backup iOS device location database file and this means that geodata won’t be stored on the computer. Finally, when customers disable setting of Location Setting on their iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad, it will delete all information that is stored in location file, says Apple.

Unity interface was made originally for the smaller Netbook screens and it gives you easier file management. It also has new dashboard for easier access to the files and applications and Workspaces which make managing multiple windows easier. There’s always the Classic interface of Ubuntu if you don't like these new elements. You will be able to connect iPhone to Ubuntu for navigating the file system but there is no support for Android phones here. It is said that the new version also works well with Ubuntu One, a cloud based service. You can sync your files and preferences in cloud. So do you miss something on migration to Ubuntu? For us, we don’t use it all the time because there isn’t any speech recognition software here like the Dragon NaturallySpeaking. Apart from that, there isn’t  [...]
