Google Glass review

biskero — Sat, 11 May 2013 07:45:01 +0000

Techcrunch has a great review of Google Glass

“In this video, we discuss some of the quick assumptions about Glass, warranted or otherwise, and give you a look through the eyes of the device in action. Stepping outside, pulling up an address, replying to an email and listening to the latest NYTimes headlines is a pretty seamless experience. Google calls the technology “calm,” since it doesn’t require you to pull a device out of your pocket, unlock a screen or tap any buttons.”

Maps app for iOS, Google Maps or Nokia Here ?

biskero — Tue, 18 Dec 2012 18:04:42 +0000

Google finally released their Map application for iOS devices few days ago. Actually only for iPhone, leaving iPad out, why?

Playing around with the iPhone version on the iPad (so not getting the full experience) and comparing it with the Nokia Here application for iOS devices can’t decide which one is better.

For now I am going with Nokia Here and waiting for the Google Maps iPad version.
