Battle of the Map Apps

A lot of buzz surrounding the whole Apple Maps issue. A lot of people say it's hardly noticeable, for others... disastrous.

On this side of the planet, here in the Philippines... this is the situation. I tried being fair, entering the name of a popular city rather than some obscure street. These were my results each with the same search parameters simply entered in Google Maps, bing maps, and iOS Maps. Only Google knew of the city.

What are your funny map app stories unique to where you live?

Volvo's New Traffic Jam Assistance System

Ok, I was gonna post something about the iPad mini but this caught my eye. Apparently, Volvo is introducing a new "Traffic Jam Assistance" system that can handle start-stop traffic. Uh huh... yes Volvo... we trust your automatic braking systems. Because they've worked soooo well in the past.

I think the last thing we need is more convoluted systems (that WILL fail) that make drivers less aware of the responsibility of driving.

This is how it's SUPPOSED to work.

This is how it actually works. Watch on YouTube. At least the wipers work... Hahahahaha!

iPhone 5 Phever

Now that Apple has announced the iPhone 5, I think the official keynote & presentation was kinda blah. I think this is how Apple should've launched the iPhone 5. Hehehehehe! ENJOY!

A Little Friday Tech Humor : Handsfree

This photo was circulating the net a while back, and was always captioned as a joke about "handsfree" mobile phone use.

I NEVER thought someone would actually take it seriously... let alone to a whole new level...

I mean how can you NOT want one?!?!? I love the main "selling point" in the end... 

EVEN THE WEIGHT OF A 5LB LAPTOP!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

A Little Monday Geek Humor

Some people believe in crop circles... those strange patterns left in farmlands that can only be seen from the air. What about patterns only seen from space? Like a Google Earth satellite perhaps?

Well, in Hazelton PA, a mysterious pattern at the Harman-Geist Stadium field has been caught by Google Earth's satellites.

Amazing what a little creative gardening can do. It's at the end of Shaft Rd... hahahahaha! Here's the link to the original Google Maps location.

Keeping safety procedures relevant and current...

Still in it's early EARLY stages. No direct access to Picasa albums. No layout control. Very basic. I doubt I'll ever use this except in extreme emergencies.
