Nvidia has just launched the quad-core ARM Cortex A9 Tegra 3 processor… God damm it makes your games look sick. I could bore you with all the finer details we received from the press release, but whats the point. Here is the video to prove it.
It seems as though Android and iOS games are taking a lot of revenues away from Nintendo DS and Sony PSP. Here are the latest numbers.

As you might have heard, Twitter launched their own photo sharing service in August, which is hosted by Photobucket. Since then Twitter has obvious seen a huge rise in their photo sharing service and the third party Twitter photo clients that were dominating the market are starting to die.
Market share of all the major third party Twitter photo sharing services have dropped, Twitpic, Yfrog and more. It simply now seems that these services are finding it very hard to diversify and innovate within the space. These services really need to change their model or core service or they are going to fade into obscurity very quickly.
It seems like the heavy weights of the industry are joining forces to try to gain some advertising marketshare away from Google (im not sure if 3 on 1 is fair). Yahoo, AOL and Microsoft will be offering each other’s premium non-reserved online display inventory to their respective advertising customers. This will all start in 2012 and they say the partnership is non-exclusive so it will mean they will still compete on getting agencies and the bigger contracts.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Microsoft and AOL and bring to market what we believe will be a more efficient, effective and more effortless way to access true premium inventory and formats,” says Ross Levinsohn, Yahoo! EVP of the Americas. “There has a been a significant shift in how inventory is bought and sold, and we’re now 100% focused on controlling our own destiny, working directly with marketers and agencies and driving better returns for our advertising partners.”

More than 2.5 million Muslims travel to the annual Islamic ritual of the Hajj on November 5, in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Google has decided to allow people to watch the pilgrimage live on YouTube.
The stream will be live on Saturday, November 5 at http://www.youtube.com/hajjlive.
The Hajj represents one of the five pillars of Islam; each muslim is expected to make the pilgrimage once in their lifetime. It will be interesting to see if they do the same for the other 5.
There are quite a few fun and useful (and even free!) time management apps (web-based, desktop and mobile). It’s really hard to surprise anyone with a sleek to-do list utility nowadays. However new and exciting tools still pop up once in a while.
One of such promising new tools is “MoreDays” which is still in invitation-based beta. (Getting an invite is easy and quick. Just be sure to check your spam box after you apply. Mine got there and I had been waiting for three days before it occurred to me to check it).
The best feature about the app is that it encourages you to use your photos to create tasks, events and contacts.
This is really brilliant: Taking a photo takes a second nowadays. Most of us have decent photo cameras always on hand and we can quickly take photos of anything. So why not use these photos to better manage your time?
The interface is very appealing: To add a task you need to create a title and submit a photo:
Obviously, you can set up (recurring) reminders, add notes and addresses and add as many other details as you need.
Each of your daily tasks and events is thus turned into a collection of memories of what you have been doing, whom you should have met and what were your daily experiences:
It’s like a digital photo album on steroids: it can alert you of new upcoming events and never let you forget about important meetings by creating sticky photo-enhanced visualizations.
While I loved the photo-support feature most of all, there were other great options I liked in the tool:
Moredays is getting very positive reviews from the press, so let’s hope the app will stick and get developed. So far the team has done a great job; let’s wait for the upcoming features to be introduced!
