The fragmentation of Android
The fragmentation of Android versions is a burden to developers
"Fragmentation Version is a burden for developers, as you know," said Tim Cook."Actually ..." he says, "if you do some calculations, you will see that iOS6 is the most popular operating system in the world and ranks second place a version of Android, which was launched in 2010".
According to Cook, who did the presentation, iOS6 is installed on 93% of the 600 million devices shipped by Apple.Tim compared the percentage at 37% of the Android's Gingerbread, also Cook said that 26% of devices running Ice Cream Sandwich and 33%, Jelly Bean.
These values include only "versions of Android that relate to Google Play store, not those of the Kindle and Nook," said Cook. "Even so, the story is a sad one."
Cook also said that Apple devices are used more minutes per day than those with Android. "50% of iPhone users invest more time in their use than those with Android devices," he said, citing a study by Experian.
Cook was keen to point out that developers of programs and applications for iOS can earn money. Apple would have paid $ 10 billion to the program, to date, says Cook. "The timing is very favorable." "Last year, we paid $ 5 billion of this money."
Take a look at Android and pull some conclusions: Google has washed his hands and give updates to seller terminals. Yes, you can quickly download a build of Android and you install it yourself the old terminal, especially if you are passionate, but if HTC, for example, you lose HTC Sense, phone charm that is all, if you install the Samsung, you lose not-know-what and so on. Just ordinary user who "does not have to like that" installed, you want to be able to run all the old and new.
If Samsung or HTC does not allow the update to the new version of Android, the user has great frustration because has paid for a smartphone and she want to run all possible applications for the operating system you chose. Imagine that Samsung has just screwed 10 million Galaxy S users, which does not offer the possibility of update to the new version of Android, though the hardware would theoretically face, whatever it says Samsung.

Feedly now has a new Web interface and its own cloud synchronization service
Feedly now has a new Web interface
By closing Google Reader remained less than ten days, but Feedly, which seems at this moment is the most serious candidate to replace him, has already announced implementation of the first option in the list that presented it in early.
The most important novelty is implementing its cloud service for synchronizing the flow of news, the company eliminating dependence on Google's software platform. For those who have already switched to Feedly, migration will be done by simply visiting the page cloud.feedly.com and restart the application.
The second novelty is waiving Chrome extension, Firefox and Safari in favor of a simple Web interface that is compatible with any browser, including Opera or Internet Explorer, which until now had access to the service Feedly.
Not all applications and services previously announced have been updated to include support for Feedly instead of Google Reader. The company announced that applications NextGen Reader, Press, GReader, Newsify, MENER and gNewsReader already received updates while Reeder will follow soon, adding to the list and online platforms IFTTT and Sprout Social.
Becoming independent of Google Reader and already having a satisfactory number of compatible applications, Feedly has yet to complete certain steps such as authentication other than the Google account, improving Web interface, or the launch of a public API. The company, however, said authentication Twitter accounts, LinkedIn, Tumblr, Microsoft and Facebook will be launched soon, along with other news.

Yahoo delete IDs
From 15 Juli Yahoo will delete IDs inactive for over a year
Prepare to lose a service from Yahoo IDs ie inactive for over a year. That old ID that you used in high school and you ignored lately might be lost since July 15.We must recognize that the move is a good one, especially since many people make multiple ids at a time waive some of them.
Yahoo IDs will reset in the middle of next month and say they do this in order to free the user name that the world wants, but can not access them.Obviously there will be attempts to spam but Yahoo will allocate only one ID of a person. Funny thing is that many people will interpret the message as spam to Yahoo, because it sounds like those mails fixed "Starting ... Google or Microsoft will close the service Gmail / Hotmail", which are obviously spam
