How Foursquare Could Tell You Where To Find Hapiness

There are some potentially great insights for mobile marketers and app designers to be gained by using location awareness to forecast a user’s likely mood and openness to new experiences.

But with all the talk about wearing the Internet on your face and whether or not these glasses can ever be fashionable, the most obvious and important story has gone untold: What is Google Glass actually like to use? You can read more about this on Fast Company.
As Google and other companies begin to build wearable technology like glasses and watches, an industry not known for its fashion sense is facing a new challenge - how to be stylish. I wrote more about this for Zimo - and you can read it here.

"And it won't even be close..."

parislemon:

Damon Porter for PCMAG.com:

Buoyed by Black Friday sales, more tablets than laptops are projected to ship in the North American market for the first time ever in the fourth quarter - and it won’t even be close, according to NPD DisplaySearch.

Porter specifically points to this post by Richard Shim, a Senior Analyst on DisplaySearch’s Analyst Blog. You may know how I feel overall about these types of numbers, but focus on the “and it won’t even be close” part. Specific numbers aside, this is happening.

For what it’s worth, NPD doesn’t expect tablets to overtake notebooks worldwide until 2015.

At that point, perhaps PCMag will rebrand as TabletMag.

Six former Nokia employees teamed up in Finnish startup Jolla.

Today they unveiled Sailfish - mobile OS based on MeeGo platform. 

It really looks great, somewhere between Windows Phone 8 and Android. With Blackberry 10 coming in January, I hope we’ll have five lovely mobile operating systems soon.

You can read more about Jolla and Sailfish here.

HTC 8X

The industrial design for the new HTC 8x Windows Phone in my opinion is the best out there. It really compliments the modern design language of the interface from Microsoft. Seeing it in person today made all the difference.
