Episode 12: Long Time Coming!

Gosh, I think we need to get some rest!

Open House, Pictures, and the iPhone app

Ahoy hoy!

IT News on our Facebook Fan Page has been a tad slow these past few days because we've been busy at our booth in Ngee Ann Poly's Open House! We were stationed in the Business IT section in the Business School.

We wanted to check out the response of teens to simple iPhone apps, so Boon created a Click Click game where all one has to do is to click as many times as he/she can within 10 seconds!

We promised an iPod Shuffle to anybody who could get the top score for the whole 3 days.

The TV from our humble booth.

Zooming in, this is how the iPhone simulated game looks like. Players do the clicking with a Wiimote, which was connected to it via Bluetooth.

How it looks like half-way through the game.

To express just how interestingly well it went, here are the top 10 pictures that really bring out the attributes of our players:

1. Perseverance
2. Anxiety
3. Determination
4. Excitement
5. Patience
6. Regret
7. Passion
8. Creativity?
9. Disappointment
10. Teamwork Sexual Tension

Blog: Google's new venture, Nexus One, in comparison with a celebrity

Ahoy!

I've been meaning to talk about the much anticipated Nexus One aka Google's very own phone, so here it goes:

If you've been following our Facebook fan page, you'd notice the excessive hype this Android powerhouse has been getting. This is Google's first attempt into producing their own hardware device to go in hand with their powerful Android OS, which has so far been running on many HTC models, the Motorola Droid, and so forth.

How's it gonna go down in 2010?

Here's a simple analogy I think WE ALL can relate to:

That's right, our very much loved Lady Gaga.

Before she went all Poker Face and Bad Romance, she was using her amazing song-writing talent for existing stars like Britney Spears, Pussycat Dolls, & Fergie.

Gaga's talent = Android OS
Exisiting stars = HTC, Motorola Droid, devices supporting Android OS

Gaga finally went solo with her talent and brought us The Fame, her own album with her own-written songs using her own voice.

The Fame = Nexus One

And was it successful? HECK YEAH! (even rumours about she being a hermaphrodite and having a lil' twinky down there didn't stop her from selling herself so well!)

This is probably the easiest analogy that I can put across for anybody to understand the possible outcome of Nexus One when it hits stores in January.

With Android's stability and powerful performance on third-party devices, its no wonder consumers are gearing up their wallets for Google's very own baby!

"We've got what you need. Come to us and we shall serve you well."

Can you imagine the possibilities?! Will we see a Google Nexus One vs iPhone in 2010?

Or will we see another uncontested year of a newer iPhone model?

Whatever it is, nothing's gonna excite me more than the possible unveiling of the iTablet/iPad!

With that said, have a great 2010!

"Aii.. I'll just stick with the iPhone."
