Happy Holidays from the Mobile Minute

Happy Holidays from the Mobile Minute

Hey there friends,   Just wanted to write this quick post before the day is over, and wish you all Happy Holidays. I hope that you were able to spend some quality time with your friends and family, and really get to the bottom of what this whole “Christmas” thing is about.   I made a video from a run I did earlier this morning, here in the Bay Area.  Thought some of you might enjoy it. Best,...

Gangnam Style reaches 1 Billion Views

Gangnam Style reaches 1 Billion Views

Today is a major day for the internet.  But more specifically, YouTube.  But even more fastidiously than that, PSY’s Gangnam Style. As of today, music artist PSY’s “Gangnam Style” video has reached a milestone of 1 billion views on YouTube. Gangnam Style’s insane viral growth really caught wind back in September when it reached 350 million views in 60 days — surpassing Carly Rae Jepsen’s Call me Maybe as the number one viral video of all time (at that time). Only a few months later, PSY was able to take down Justin Bieber’s “Baby” music video to become the most viewed of all time on YouTube.   ..And now, it’s the first video to hit a billion views on YouTube. Needless to say, a big Congrats goes out to the folks who made this production possible, we’ll see who makes the next BILLION views.   I know I’ve heard it more than enough times, but have you? Here’s some stats from YouTube’s blog. One billion views is an incredible number,...

Kayak Travel Tips for the Holiday Season

Kayak Travel Tips for the Holiday Season

With over 90 million people expecting to travel for the holidays the folks over at VentureBeat, Kayak, and Visual.ly spent some time to make this really awesome infographic for us.  Through over a billion search queries Kayak analyzed they’ve unwrapped some important and interesting findings, like the comparisons between holiday travel vs general year-round travel; and between international and domestic journeys.   While I don’t know why Kayak would care when we bought our tickets, especially if they were at the cheapest price (it seems like they would lose money) but again, take a look at the great infographic below and...

One keyboard to rule them all: The Logitech Bluetooth Easy-Switch Keyboard

One keyboard to rule them all: The Logitech Bluetooth Easy-Switch Keyboard

Logitech announced it’s newest product earlier today the Logitech Bluetooth Illuminated Keyboard K810.  It’s quite the piece of technology the K810 allows users to switch from typing on a Mac to an iPad or iPhone with the touch of a button.   The Bluetooth Easy-Switch Keyboard can toggle between devices while typing unlike most rivals, which pair with a single Apple device and complicate the process of switching between platforms. Illuminated keys automatically adjust to the brightness of the room, and the case features a real aluminum top to match the Mac.     Included is a  USB rechargeable cable which allows the keyboard to be used while charging, and a full charge lasting about 10 days. Said to be released in January of next year.   Check out the video below to find out more. The price for this bad boy starts at $99...

YotaPhone see it to belive it | Touch screen on one side – eReader on the other.

Spotted earlier by the folks over at TC.  The YotaPhone is a  powerful Android-based phone with extended touch areas and HD resolution display. The electronic paper display (EPD) is your personal space for receiving notifications, linking to your social media, reading news as it happens or simply displaying your favorite pictures. The two sides are linked together to open a new world of unlimited user experiences.   Sounds like a great design to me, I’m excited to see what these folks have in store.  Releases for the YotaPhone are said to be taking place in Q3 of 2013.   What would you do with an eReader on one side, and your touch screen on the other? Some of the specs for the device include:   Platform Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM 8960 Dual Core 1.5 Ghz Krait OS OS Android, 4.2 Jelly Bean release Dimensions 67×131(7.3/9.9) mm Weight 140 grams EPD Eink, 4.3” LCD JDI, 4.3” 1280×720 (HD) Connectivity LTE (bands 3, 7, 20 MIMO), 2G, 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi (Direct), BT,...
