| Google Streamlines User Experience Across Google Products With New App Launcher Posted: 22 Sep 2013 02:10 PM PDT  Once you are logged into Google, you would want to move around all Google services seamlessly. To that end, Google has updated the Google Bar with a new design. The old black bar that spanned the length of the screen has been done away with for a less obtrusive design. The new Google App launcher is more simplified as it gives you access to all Google services under one common grid. The "Apps grid" button is available on the top-right and a click on it reveals a drop-down menu with all the Google service icons neatly displayed. The Apps grid...

The Release Preview of the browser — whose Developer Preview surprised us with how mature it has become — is now available as a free download for Windows 7 users and it comes with a few cool features. Apparently there have been quite a few changes under the hood because Microsoft is claiming some significant leadership over competitors. In an advert for the new browser, the company claims IE11 is six times faster than Google Chrome at rendering 3D...

| YouTube To Add Offline Viewing For Videos On Mobile Posted: 22 Sep 2013 10:30 AM PDT  Don’t you wish your long, boring morning bus ride could be a bit more entertaining? Soon, it might be. YouTube announced on Tuesday that it will soon offer the ability to let users view videos on their mobile even when offline. The update is expected to be released in November, but other than this, details have been very vague. In short, it’s a simple update among many other unspecified ones, and basically, it will allow users to download videos for offline viewing within the YouTube app. Practically speaking, this will prevent viewers from using up their mobile data by allowing...

| Yahoo For iOS 7: Now Stay Updated With Breaking News, Cinemagraphs & Cleaner Interface Posted: 22 Sep 2013 08:30 AM PDT  The new Yahoo app is going for the “cleaner, faster, and prettier” maxim. Yahoo probably didn’t need a reason to go for a design refresh, as it has been on this path generally. The coming of iOS 7 has afforded it one, and the Yahoo app for iPhone and iPod Touch even comes with an interesting new feature. The Yahoo app was released in the immediate wake of iOS 7's availability. The primary feature (though, U.S. only for now) is the ability to save your favorite articles for a later read. With “My Saves” you can save read-worthy content with... Read the full article: Yahoo For iOS 7: Now Stay Updated With Breaking News, Cinemagraphs & Cleaner Interface |

[MakeUseOf Poll] Posted: 22 Sep 2013 07:30 AM PDT  Last week, following the much-hyped launch of the new iPhones, we asked you if you’re planning to buy the iPhone 5c or iPhone 5s. It doesn’t happen much in these polls, but over 50% of you chose the same answer. Can you guess which one it was? Out of 478 readers who voted, 1% will be buying the iPhone 5c, 5% are still not sure, 14% are waiting for the iPhone 6, 25% are buying the iPhone 5s, and 54% of the readers who voted are not buying a new iPhone, period. While 54% is undoubtedly a majority, we can’t... Read the full article: Will You Give Internet Explorer 11 A Chance? [MakeUseOf Poll] |
