Smart Network Disruption - January 7, 2011

Many Smart subscribers were irritated following a supposed network outage that prevented them from sending messages and connecting to the internet, earlier today. A number of them vent out their frustrations in social networking sites.

At around 6 p.m. today, the mobile network explained what happened through its official Facebook account.

"Smart Advisory: Our services were temporarily disrupted due to two (2) cable breaks in our transmission network in Maramag and Butuan in Mindanao. We immediately dispatched repair teams to these areas. We were able to restore normal services by 3pm. We apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused our valued subscribers. Thank you very much," the announcement reads.

Smart is one of the biggest mobile operators in the country with over 45 million cellular subscribers as of June 2010.

Vangie, the Pinoy Siri

Siri, one of the new features of the latest iPhone from Apple, the Apple 4S, is a voice activated "assistant" that lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, and more - your virtual personal assistant per se.

However, according to "MacapunoSystems" of Youtube, there are some Siri functions that are not yet available in the Philippines and Siri is having a hard time understanding Pinoy English. So it came up with a Pinoy version Siri, it named "Vangie".

"Vangie was programmed to fully understand Pinoy culture," it said.

Vangie is said to be "The Pinoy Virtual Assistant".

Check out below its hilarious spoof posted on Youtube which has gotten viral overnight:


Pre-installed with Siri, the iPhone 4S was launched in the Philippines on December 16, 2011. Both Globe and Smart are offering the Apple product to its subscribers.

iPad 3 rumors predict arrival of next generation iPad

Rumors have it that the iPad 3 will be launched in February 2012.

Citing "sources in the supply chain," Digitimes reported that the iPad 3 is "expected to be available in the next 3-4 months as makers in the supply chain have started delivering parts and components for the new tablet to OEM contractors while reducing those prepared for iPad 2"

"Foxconn Electronics will begin to produce the next-generation iPads in January and to ramp up the production volume starting February," Digitimes added.

Industry Leader Magazine (ILM) also reported the rumor and added that the reason why Apple might launch the iPad 3 in February is because it wants to "upstage Samsung’s (also a rumor but there is high possibility that it pushes through) February launch of their own next-generation Galaxy Tab."

ILM also said there are speculations that the specifications of the iPad 3 would include a high-resolution, retina display, screen based on new technology from Sharp (most likely 2048 x 1536 display); an A6 chip; a larger capacity battery; higher resolution apps; and an LTE support. The iPad 3 is likely to be just a bit thicker, ILM said.

Meanwhile, there is an iPad 3 concept video posted on Youtube which contains rumors about the specs of the new generation iPad as well. Read more details about it here: http://noypistuff.blogspot.com/2011/12/ipad-3-rumors-surface-concept-video.html

iPad 3 rumors surface online

iPad 3 rumors are starting to circulate in the world wide web. One of the most fascinating rumors is that the iPad 3 will be transparent and rimless. That's according to an iPad 3 "concept video" posted a few months ago on Youtube which predicts that the new generation tablet will have a 9.7-inch multi-touch holographic screen and will weigh 0.6 pounds, with 10-hour battery life and 3G connectivity.

"Whether it is flipping a photograph or zooming a map, the operations have become more accurate and precise on the Apple iPad 3G. With photos, audio, and HD video at your fingertips, this 3G iPad is multimedia redefined. The iPad 3 is the perfect blend of performance and awesomeness." the video's description reads.

Check out the said iPad 3 concept video courtesy of "AdneyFilms" below:


Meanwhile, there are also rumors that the iPad 3 is set to be launched in February 2012. The tablet is said to feature improved screen resolution, responsiveness and very possibly 4G as well.

Citing "sources in the supply chain," Digitimes said the iPad 3 is "expected to be available in the next 3-4 months as makers in the supply chain have started delivering parts and components for the new tablet to OEM contractors while reducing those prepared for iPad 2"

"Foxconn Electronics will begin to produce the next-generation iPads in January and to ramp up the production volume starting February," Digitimes added.

Siri is a voice activated "assistant" integrated into Apple's new iPhone 4S. It uses natural language processing to response to questions, make searches and recommendations, and perform actions by delegating requests to other iPhone applications (calendar, email, text messaging, etc).

"Siri on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, and more. Ask Siri to do things just by talking the way you talk. Siri understands what you say, knows what you mean, and even talks back. Siri is so easy to use and does so much, you’ll keep finding more and more ways to use it." Apple said.

This innovative software is said to be the selling point for the smartphone which has set a sales record of more than 4 million units in three days.

Since the release of iPhone 4S a few days ago, videos relating to Siri have been widely shared on Youtube and some of them are currently going viral through social media sharing. 

Check out some of these Siri videos below:

iPhone 4S has been released a few days ago and as people had their hands for the first time on this new product from Apple, one of the first things they explore is its innovative application called Siri.

Siri is like one's virtual personal assistant. As Apple would describe it, "Siri on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, and more. Ask Siri to do things just by talking the way you talk. Siri understands what you say, knows what you mean, and even talks back. Siri is so easy to use and does so much, you’ll keep finding more and more ways to use it."

As people try out the application, they came up with funny questions which were answered rather cleverly by Siri. Here are a few of them:

A $35 tablet computer has been launched in India Wednesday which is hoped to change lives of many people from the rural poor. Called Aakash, the $35 tablet computer is targeting millions of poverty-stricken villagers in India’s countryside.

At the tablet's launch, Kapil Sibal, India's Human Resources Development Minister, said, "This is not just for us. This is for all of you who are disempowered."

"This is for all those who live on the fringes of society," he added.

Sibal also revealed that the government planned to buy 100,000 of the tablets and that it hopes to distribute 10 million units to students all over India over the next few years.

"The rich have access to the digital world, the poor and ordinary have been excluded. Aakash will end that digital divide," Sibal said.

Five hundred of the device were handed out to students during the launch.

Dubbed as the "cheapest tablet computer in the world", Aakash (a term for "sky" in Hindi), is said to be the latest addition to a series of "world's cheapest" innovations in India that include a $2,040 compact Nano car, a $15 water purifier and $2,000 open-heart surgery.

The $35 tablet computer, which is Android-based, supports web browsing and video conferencing, has a three-hour battery life, 7″ touch screen, 800×480 resolution, WiFi, 256 MB RAM, 2GB flash memory, 32 GB expandable memory slot and two USB ports, but questions remain over how it will perform.

Ice Cream Sandwich OS gets previewed.

Ice Cream Sandwich, the latest Android operating system to be used in smartphones and tablets, is yet to be launched next month but it was reportedly leaked via eBay by accident.

According to an Engadget report, a man was surprised when he discovered that the Samsung Nexus S phone he ordered on eBay did not have the familiar Android Gingerbread OS. Instead, he found out that it was the upcoming Android Ice Cream Sandwich OS that was running in his newly acquired handset.

The said person quickly recorded a video displaying what Ice Cream Sandwich's features are. He was able to create a two-minute twenty-second video which he uploaded online. From the clip, we can see that the new OS has a lot of incorporation of Gingerbread and Honeycomb. It shows the user interface as similar to the leaked screenshots that have previously surfaced online. The new features include the lock screen, a Google widget with a number of Google apps, a new camera application and the notification bar. Check out the said video below:



Engadget added that after the person uploaded the video, his handset was remotely wiped and locked.

According to recent reports, Samsung has officially announced that Ice Cream Sandwich will be launched on October 11th. Android Head of Engineering, Mike Claren had called it the company’s “most ambitious release to date.” Features of the new OS will reportedly include facial recognition and new APIs to reduce fragmentation. It is said to be a combination of Gingerbread and Honeycomb into a "cohesive whole"

"iPhone 5 Concept Features," this is the title of the Youtube video that is currently making the rounds on the worldwide web. It showcases the possible features of the much-awaited Apple iPhone 5 - ultra-thin design, laser keyboard and holographic display. But of course, those technology are not yet available as of the present time, thus the said iPhone 5 features aren't real.

Screenshots of the "iPhone 5 Concept Features"Video on Youtube

The said iPhone 5 video was uploaded just barely 3 weeks ago but amazingly it has attracted more than 14.5 million views on Youtube already as of this writing. This only suggests that people from all over the world can't anymore wait to have their hands on the iPhone 5.

Check out the said iPhone 5 video below:

Dr. Larry Rosen, a Psychology professor at California State University, outlined his findings before the American Psychological Association over the weekend.



“While nobody can deny that Facebook has altered the landscape of social interaction, particularly among young people, we are just now starting to see solid psychological research demonstrating both the positives and the negatives,” said Rosen.



Here are negative effects of Facebook on kids according to Rosen:

1. Teens who are heavy gamers or Facebook users have more trouble sleeping, higher levels of anxiety, depression, and stomach aches.



2. Young adults and teens who spend their days inside Facebook are more narcissistic and show more signs of other psychological disorders, including antisocial behaviors, mania, and aggressive tendencies.



3. Students who use more technology are likely to miss more school.



4. The more teens and adults use Facebook, the more likely they are to also use alcohol.



5. Students from junior high through college age were observed to generally check social networks or text messages every few minutes while studying, leading to lower test performance than students who focus for longer periods of time.



6. The average teen sends 2000 texts per month, which can lead to problems communicating with family and even carpal tunnel syndrome in a few cases.

Rosen also laid out the following positive influences linked to social networking:

1. Young adults who spend more time on Facebook are better at showing “virtual empathy” to their online friends.



2. Online social networking can help introverted adolescents learn how to socialize behind the safety of various screens, ranging from a two-inch smartphone to a 17-inch laptop.



3. Social networking can provide tools for teaching in compelling ways that engage young students.

“If you feel that you have to use some sort of computer program to surreptitiously monitor your child's social networking, you are wasting your time. Your child will find a workaround in a matter of minutes,” he said. “You have to start talking about appropriate technology use early and often and build trust, so that when there is a problem, whether it is being bullied or seeing a disturbing image, your child will talk to you about it.” Rosen advises parents.

Not liking the new Facebook chat set-up? Do you prefer the old version instead?

Well, I recently followed a tutorial on how to restore the old version of Facebook chat and it worked. And believe it or not, it's pretty much fast and simple. It literally took me seconds to do the whole process (using Chrome). All you need to do is to install a small add-on and/or script depending on your browser (i.e. Firefox, Chrome, Safari, etc.). Restart your browser and presto! - Facebook chat old version restored! Check out my Facebook homepage now:

Facebook now has a video chat feature. Facebook Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg announced on Wednesday a partnership with Skype to integrate video calling function in the popular social networking site.

Through the new feature, Facebook users will be able to perform a video call with someone on their "friends list". To do this, a user only need to download a small plugin which is accessible through the chat tab and ta-da — instant video messaging.

In addition to Video Calling, there is also an update to Group Chat that allows for ad-hoc group messaging with a brand new look that would ease finding buddies that are online.

The new Facebook chat features reportedly will begin rolling out to millions of users today.
