Moodies

01:30 about 20 hours ago

Thanks to voice recognition technology like Siri, we're all spending a lot more time literally talking to our phones.We can ask our phones all kinds of things and get the information we need and now you can even have your phone tell you how you feel.An app called Moodies claims it can listen to you speak for 15 seconds and give you a general impression of how you feel.Their website says: "Based on 18 years of research into the science of emotions, Moodies analyses and presents the current emotional state of speakers in real time, as they speak".It presents you with the primary mood, secondary mood and overall general mood group.I've taken it for a couple of test drives and it's pretty interesting to see what the app does, but I'm not quite ready to rely on it to determine the mood of my wife or co-workers.Moodies is spelled M O O D I E S and it's available for both iPhone and Android users

Background Defocus Apps

01:30 2 days ago

One of great things about expensive DSLR cameras is the depth of field that the lenses can provide.You know those beautiful images where the subject is in clear focus and everything in the background is blurred, which can be visually stunning.Well, if you're not ready to part with a pile of money in order to get these professional looking shots, checkout some of the background defocus apps for your smartphone.Several phones have a blur option built into the camera app, so start by checking for that feature.If not, both Android and iPhone users can try the AfterFocus app which does just what it implies; allows you to change the focus after you take the picture.You start by dragging your finger over the areas that you want in focus then switch to the background and do the same for what you want blurred.It doesn't take long to get the hang of how the tool works and you can even choose multiple items in the shot for some really interesting results.http://appm1.com/afterfocus

Hourly Nerd

01:30 3 days ago

Crowd-sourcing is a great way to get tasks accomplished that can range from creating a new logo to building a website to getting administrative tasks done through virtual assistants.Well, now you can add hiring a business consultant to the list with a website called HourlyNerd.com.Large consulting firms are out of reach for small businesses or small projects, so HourlyNerd is trying to fill the gap.Their goal is to match you with business professionals and MBAs that can help with just about any business challenge.And, like other crowd-sourcing sites, consultants bid for your business, which keeps the costs very competitive.Whether you need help with a business plan, marketing strategy, financial projections or a custom project, HourlyNerd can provide consultants on an as-need basis.The consultants are current and former MBA students from over 50 colleges from around the world, so it's a pretty diverse group competing for your project.You can checkout case studies and see how it all works...

Malicious apps send by text or email

01:30 4 days ago

Smartphones have been pretty safe from malicious apps as long as you stick to getting your apps from the official app stores and you don't jailbreak your device.Jailbreaking or rooting your phone allows you to bypass the controls put in place by the device manufacturer and is generally done by tech savvy users.But now a new scam is beginning to circulate that can sneak a malicious app onto your smartphone, even if you haven't modified the controls on your phone.The scam starts with a cleverly crafted text message or email that links to an app download.If you follow the link, it can compromise non-jailbroken iPhones or unrooted Android phones.This underscores the importance of the long standing rule: If you didn't go looking for it, don't install it.Scammers can create some very persuasive messages that appear to be from trusted sources through the hacked accounts, so stay alert.If you want a little extra protection, checkout the free smartphone security apps at http://lookout.com

Look For app - dumbest ever but free flashlight ap

01:33 8 days ago

We've all been in a situation, where we're trying to find someone in a large public crowd, like a music festival or concert venue.Well, a couple of app developers have created something they call the dumbest app ever that's actually pretty clever.The app is called Look For and it's essentially a way to turn your smartphone screen into a blinking beacon so your friends can find you in a crowd.Launch the app, pick a color and hold it up in the air so you can text your friends and tell them to look for the blinking blue light.It may even help you get the attention of a cab, especially at night.If you want to applaud their efforts, you can pay the 99 cents for either the iPhone or Android app, but the reality is that there are lots of free flashlight apps that do the same thing.Just search your app store for 'blinking flashlight' and make sure the screen is what blinks.

No fly zone for drones

01:33 9 days ago

When you hear the term 'no-fly' zone, you typically think of political unrest and war zones, but today's tip deals with your own personal no-fly zone.Personal unmanned aerial vehicles, also known as quadcopters or personal drones are starting to fill the skies and the industry is aware of the potential privacy issues.A new website called http://www.noflyzone.org has been setup as a way for you to tell drone manufacturers that you don't want their vehicles flying over your backyard.It's a free service and all you do is enter your physical address and a valid email address to validate the request and your wishes will be in the database forever.Your GPS coordinates get added to a database that participating drone manufacturers use to prevent their devices from being able to fly into those areas.Not all of the manufacturers are currently participating in this voluntary program, so this isn't a guarantee of drone-free skies in your backyard, but it's a start.

Google will give you 2GB of storage for checking y

01:33 10 days ago

Securing your accounts and information is more important than ever, but unless we get a gentle reminder, we generally forget to go back and review our security settings.Google understands this and want's to help motivate you to review your security settings, so they've come up with a pretty decent incentive: free storage space.If you spend the few minutes that it takes to do a security check up on your Google account, they'll reward you with an additional 2 Gbs of cloud storage.A standard account comes with 15 Gbs of free storage, but even if you don't need the extra space now, you will at some point down the road, so take advantage of the freebie.Just go to http://Security.Google.com and sign into your account to get to the Security checkup option.The process only takes a few minutes to review your activity log, recovery and app permissionsIf you do it, they'll credit your account with the additional 2 Gbs of storage on February 28th.

New Facebook policy allows social media immortalit

01:33 11 days ago

Social networks have become so integrated in so many of our lives that when someone passes away, one of the first places you'll go is Facebook.It's an easy way to connect with grieving family and friends and see so many memories of the departed posted by others.But if you're the family of the deceased and didn't have their username and password, Facebook would eventually memorialize the account and essentially freeze it in time.Until now...Facebook has finally made it possible for a family member to become an executor of your page with a new feature called Legacy Contact.Instead of having no ability to update the page and keep it going, if you assign a legacy contact they can continue to update your page, should something happen.To set this up, go to the Settings menu, then to Security and the last option will be Legacy Contact.It's not something any of us like to think about, but take a minute and pick someone just in case something happens.

Phone apps are just as accurate as fitness bands

01:33 12 days ago

Fitness monitors are all the rage these days, but at prices that can range from $100 to $300, they can get expensive.But paying for something that's on your wrist all day is a lot more accurate than just loading an app on your smartphone, right?Wrong!A recent study published by the Journal of the American Medical Association found that an app on your smartphone can be just as accurate as a fancy fitness band when it came to tracking steps and activity.The tests were done on treadmills so they don't necessarily reflect real life situations where you may not have your phone with you.But if you're looking for motivation by tracking your activity everyday, you don't have to buy an expensive gadget.There are lots of great apps for your smartphone and many of them are free!Checkout apps like Argus or Moves for the iPhone and the Runtastic Pedometer app for Android or iPhone.Anything that motivates you to step up your exercise is a good thing, so get tracking today!

Reddit AMA app

01:33 15 days ago

Reddit.com is a popular tool in geek culture, but it can be a little hard to take for the uninitiated.It bills itself as the front page of the Internet and is a great example of democracy on the Internet.It's like a huge message board where articles and postings get voted up and down by the community, so popular content bubbles to the top.One of my favorite features of Reddit are the AMAs, which stands for Ask Me Anything.It's a virtual live interview of famous folks that you can participate in by asking them anything; even the President's done one.If you get the Ask Me Anything app, you can search through past sessions and set reminders for upcoming AMAs so you can ask your favorite personalities a question.If you find Reddit.com to be too much to handle, start with this excellent app.Reddit is spelled R E D D I T and the Ask Me Anything app is available for iPhone and Android users.
