VSCO Cam Android App Has Finally Been Released

VSCO Cam Android App Has Finally Been Released

One of the most popular photography apps on iOS has finally made its way to Android. VSCO Cam Android app has been released today after a rather lengthy beta period. Any device capable of running Android 4.o Ice Cream Sandwich or higher is compatible with this app. VSCO Cam is known for its extensive image editing tools, a wide variety of filters and simple user interface. Despite the fact that VSCO has a small team of developers, it was able to bring all of the photo processing features found on its iOS app over to Android, so users won't have to worry about feature parity between the two apps.

HTC posts $522 million in revenue for November

HTC has issued its financial report for November stating a revenue of $522 million (NT$15.47 billion). That's up 3.2% from the results posted in October, but a decrease 27.1% year-over-year. According to analysts, HTC's reported financials meet market expectations with the Taiwanese looking forward to ship about 5.2 million smartphones in Q4 of 2013. However, things aren't looking as bright as HTC would've wanted them to be. For the whole 2013, sans December of course, HTC's revenues amounted to nearly $6.45 billion - a 28.6% decrease compared to 2012.

Fairphone To Start Shipping Later This Month

Fairphone To Start Shipping Later This Month

Earlier this year we reported on a particularly interesting Android handset by the name of Fairphone. What made the device unique wasn't so much its specs, its camera, its software, or its design, but rather the fact that the phone was made using as little conflict materials as possible. The good news is that if you were one of the few thousand who pre-ordered the handset at the time of its announcement, you will be pleased to learn that the handset will be leaving its factory on the 23rd of December. Granted this is a pretty long time to wait, but apparently there were production problems, but we suppose better late than never, right.

KitKat Now Part Of Android Distribution Stats

KitKat Now Part Of Android Distribution Stats

Google has let us know the latest breakdown of its Android mobile operating system statistics, and for the first time, Android 4.4 KitKat has appeared on the radar. In this month's pie chart, the Android 4.4 KitKat market share makes its debut, but needless to say, it remain extremely small in nature – measuring all of just 1.1%. That is not surprising since Android 4.4 KitKat happens to be made available to an extremely limited number of handsets, including the Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7, the Google Play edition phones and the Moto X.

Spikenzie Labs Solder:Time Desk Clock review

. I am a huge fan of the DIY/maker movement that has come up recently.  Every year since 2010, my significant other and I enjoy going to Maker Faire in Queens, NY.  It sparks my interest in what people create and hack, and gives me ideas of my own.  There are many vendors that show off DIY kits of various kinds, and one of them was from Spikenzie Labs.
