Review: Android takes big leap with Galaxy Nexus

The Galaxy Nexus is the first Google Android phone without four buttons below the screen.
The Galaxy Nexus is a Smartphone that just arrived in Verizon. The Smartphone has been out for weeks in Britain. The difference between the UK and the US version is that the UK version uses Google Wallet but the US version doesn't. It also is the first android phone to run Android 4.0 also known as the Ice Cream Sandwich. The Android 4.0 was created by Google and Samsung. Something that Google has changed that will make a small yet big difference is that they took out the hardware buttons bellow the screen. Now these buttons are touch screen.

Weekend/First Marking Period Reflection

My Weekend:
My weekend was pretty boring. I didn't do much. I had to babysit.But I was aloud to hang out with my friends.I also don't have internet or cable so my weekend was really boring. haha >.< I was also supposed to go to the football game Saturday with my friends. But I ended up not going. I didn't really do much. I guess the highlight of my weekend was walking around the trailer park with my friend and Alex. Or you can say the one hour phone call with Jeremy was my highlight of this weekend >.< Yeah my weekend was really really boring. I don't even know how I survived. 

My Reflection on Last Marking Period:
Well I guess Web 2.0 wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. To keep your grade up wasn't hard unless you don't do your homework. But over all it was a pretty great class. One that I actually look forward for. :D not like other classes that I wish would end really really fast...
But still Web 2.0 is one of my favorite class right next to History. In Web 2.0 we did many things. Like surveys, voki, web articles, and other things. Yeah I didn't do much of my tech articles but i did most of them >.< Overall Web 2.0 is a great class where I learn more about technology!  :D

BlackBerry fixes problem but lags remain, executive says


"We've now restored full services," RIM's co-CEO Mike Lazaridis told reporters. World Wide BlackBerry Network hasn't been working. Costumers weren't able to send or recieve emails. But still some customers might see emails and text coming slowly. This was bad timing for RIM because there is a lot of completion with iPhone 4S and new androids. This had outraged many of their customers I hope RIM can gain the trust of all of their customers back.

Apple's iPhone 4S





Apple unveiled the new iPhone 4s on Tuesday. Many investors were unhappy about this because the company didn't unveil a more updated and redesigned iPhone 5. The New iPhone looks the same as the iPhone 4 but the inside is what has changed. The iPhone 4s has a faster new processor and 8 megapixel camra. But industry experts didn't care about what it had they cared more about what it didn't have. "It was a big disapointment," said Jeff Kagan. He also said, "What we expect from Apple every year is something that shakes the earth. What we had was an incremental improvement from what we had last year."
But I don't agree on this. The iPhone 4S isn't what everyone expected but still it has somethings that are different from the iPhone 4 like Siri.

They say that the new Kindle Touch will be the first Amazon e-reader. Another thing is that you can see the screen in the sunlight like a normal book. The reason for this is because of   capacitive touch. Captive touch  is a layer that goes on top of that display. It adds glare.
