One year later, Apple still headed wrong way with Maps

After a weekend of record breaking sales on their latest iPhone offering (again), Apple got an unfortunate report published by FastCompany. A year after Apple nixed Google’s Maps for their own in-house map application, Apple still seems to be giving some really bad directions to their customers. The latest report of erroneous directions comes from Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport. According to the report from the Alaska Dispatch, Apple’s … Continue reading One year later, Apple still headed wrong way with Maps

Noisestash: Three apps that help organize my life

Over the last few months I’ve found myself completely overwhelmed by the rigors of managing two websites, freelance work, and carving out personal time to deal with the important things. Up until recently I scoffed at the idea of using to-do lists and apps for keeping it all together – possibly out of some misguide pride on my part. After trying to keep it all … Continue reading Noisestash: Three apps that help organize my life

It finally happened, the iPhone goes Magenta

PS4, emphasis on ‘Play’, will you fall in love?

Yesterday we were asked, as always during a product launch, to fall in love, but, like the social media page with the random picture of a cat or anime character for an avatar, we have no idea what it looks like. What we are left with is its personality, what is written on the screen, the best foot forward, all the hopes and dreams laid … Continue reading PS4, emphasis on ‘Play’, will you fall in love?

Judge denies Apple additional damages; Samsung still gotta pay

Remember the landmark ruling in Apple’s favor following the big Apple v. Samsung patent lawsuit last summer? Well the TL;DR version could be summed up as follows: A jury found that Samsung “willfully” infringed upon some of Apple’s patents and awarded them $1.049 Billion. Samsung was clearly unhappy with the results and contested the jury’s decision. Good on them. Today, U.S. District Court Judge Lucy … Continue reading Judge denies Apple additional damages; Samsung still gotta pay

Porn in Russia’s iTunes Store

But by no means was this intentional, the report from NBC News indicates that the gaffe was a result of an unobservant web designer using an ‘xx.xx.xx’ placeholder for the Foreign Language Movies section in the iTunes Store. The timing of the flub may be worse than the actual error – on the iTunes Store’s first day opening in Russia. As has been made perfectly … Continue reading Porn in Russia’s iTunes Store

Apple Retail Store revenues best diamonds

Diamonds are a funny thing; they’re fancy pieces of carbon that people are willing to spend a whole lot of money on. They’re considered precious stones that are invaluable; hence their usually inflated costs. Apple’s wares are a lot like said diamonds, except when talking about how much of each item you can actually sell. According to AllThingsD, a recent study by Retail Sails puts Apple’s … Continue reading Apple Retail Store revenues best diamonds

When Apple unveiled the iPad Mini a few weeks back, bloggers everywhere rolled their eyes and scoffed, “who would want an expensive 8-inch tablet with the internals of a 2 year old device?” It was an internet travesty that translated into hundreds of thousands of words and copy that could all be summed up as: The best device in your hands but we’re gonna hate … Continue reading So who would buy a small version of last year’s tablet? 3 Million people
