Dell expects to launch a smartphone with Google's Android software on AT&T's cellular network soon as early as 2010, marking Dell's first dive into the competitive U.S. cellphone market. The launch would also mean that all four major telecommunications carriers are using Google's Android software. The phone, like Apple's iPhone, has a touch screen instead of a keypad as well as a tiny camera.

Now syncing: Google history on mobile phones | Webware - CNET

Google made two significant enhancements to Google.com on mobile phones Wednesday.

The first, history sync, now makes it possible to carry over a record of your search queries when you switch between mobile and desktop versions of Google.com. Dubbed "Personalized Suggest," Google will now remember your searches and will add them into the list of search suggestions you see as you type into the search bar. The new feature saves you from browsing through your history to repeat a query.

Integration Spotlight: Shoeboxed « Evernote Blogcast

Shoeboxed and Evernote

Shoeboxed is a service that will scan all your business cards and receipts. You just stuff all that paper into an envelope and mail it to Shoeboxed. Some accounts even get a special blue Shoeboxed envelope that come postage-paid and pre-addressed, to get rid of even that small burden. Think of it as Netflix for your papers.

Once Shoeboxed receives your stuff, they scan everything and make it available online. Now for the really cool part, you can send any of that content from Shoeboxed into Evernote, where those business cards, receipts, and any handwritten scribbles become searchable. All you need is your Evernote email address, which you can find in the settings page of you Evernote Web account.

Across a number of foreign airlines, however, those issues have been-resolved, for example by routing mobile signals via satellite to their proper points on land. Users with standard international roaming service can thus make or receive calls or texts as normal.

The Three-Person Mobile Application Company Worth Watching | mocoNews

If you haven’t already tried it, you should because while dozens of other companies have attempted to do the same thing, this may just have the winning formula. Here’s how it works: Go to a bar or restaurant and “check-in,” so that your other friends can see you there. If you check-in more than anyone else, you will be named mayor. Other badges of honor are awarded for staying out late, or drinking multiple nights a week. Here’s where the money-making part comes in: To encourage loyalty, bars and restaurants have started offering mayors free drinks or other offers.

Foursquare has made a dead-simple application that lures users to local restaurants, bars and other venues—and despite being a three-person start-up, they are already convincing local advertisers to support the service.

$4.2 billion by 2013 is a very impressive number.
