Apple Defeated Samsung. Yay!

"Ooh, that's gotta hurt". If Duke Nukem was reporting from the Apple vs Samsung trial, that is how he would describe more than billion dollars in damages. While many people are unhappy about verdict, they shouldn't be. Apple played fair and square by American law and won. Now let's forget about the case and let's start to think how future will look like. I will try to present different aspects of Android ecosystem and how verdict impacts them.

Samsung's Hope Relay Anti-marketing

I usually write new articles on Tuesday evening, but this time I had more important stuff to do. I am participating in Samsung Hope Relay charity. For every three kilometers of running or cycling, Samsung donates 0.94 EUR / 1.17 USD to SOS Children's Village Croatia. All you have to do is to download application that will track your run.

Android at the Speed of Lightning

What to do to make Android run faster? Faster processor, of course, and faster GPU - not. As more experienced desktop users already know, main bottleneck is usually one less obvious component: memory.

Writing with Thumb: Android Keyboards

Can you get your smartphone and write article as long as this one without losing your nerves? If your answer is no, you may want to read this. It comes from the guy who did it more than once. If you have smartphone with small screen, low specification or both, there is a hidden gem for you.

For serious writing on the smartphone, you want keyboard that is super-efficient while you use it, but moves out of your way when you don't. After many months of writing on the touchscreen, I compiled a list of most desirable keyboard features.

Readability: Nexus 7 vs iPad the 3rd

Love to read? Me too. Sometimes it is a novel, sometimes it is one of those super-thick technical books or downloaded PDF. I got tired of dragging books around, and reading in front of the screen is not very comfortable, so I made a small test to find out which mobile device is best for reading technical literature.
