As ESI, the guys from Microsoft are planning to change some things to your new Windows 8, and one of these things will remove Windows Live Messenger from the start line, putting in place the great Skype.
Is this the end of the famous chat client? No, because apparently Windows Live Messenger will be integrated into Skype in the coming months, and as noted it will be officially announced soon.
This is the latest attempt by Microsoft to link their accounts with Skype software it acquired last year for about $ 8.5 billion dollars. Windows Live Messenger, on the other hand, a client is much older than Skype and dates back to 1999 when it was called MSN Messenger. At its peak, it reached 330 million users, but today that number has dropped considerably.

A couple of days ago, the Japanese police arrested a total of five Android platform developers who had inserted malware into your applications. No wonder that many applications store Play Google are infected with viruses and the like, but what is really surprising is that these five people managed to take information on millions of Android through its applications. The worst part is how people managed to unload their applications: simply adding "The Movie" (the movie) after the title of popular applications, so that would be something like "Angry Birds: The Movie", a title that frankly draw attention to anyone.
Before downloading an application, remember to find references to it on the internet to avoid such problems.

No doubt the guys at Samsung must be more than happy because the smartphone company's flagship, the Super Galaxy S III, has already reach 30 million units sold worldwide. One of the many divisions of Samsung made the announcement via Twitter and Facebook, where he also shared the image you see above, where there are several staff members of the company holding a couple of copies of S III and posters that clearly read the number 30,000,000.
What is striking is that both publications were withdrawn after a while, so it's likely to do so announced through a press conference or similar.
All this is just win for Samsung, because despite all the problems it had with Apple and patents, in addition to competition from other companies, the S III is still a very popular device that gets increasingly more households worldwide.
Tell us: Do you have a Galaxy S III or are planning to buy one?

Instagram, as many know, has a great service of filters for photos that go up. This and many other features have made it the best platform for sharing photos. In fact it is so good that once tried to acquire Twitter, but surely remember that Facebook beat her and ended up buying it first. After this "defeat", Twitter began looking for a similar company to acquire. Yesterday it was announced that the popular microblogging platform plans to incorporate a system of filters to photos that hang up in their social network, which really does not surprise us much.
Unable to buy the filters, it seems that Twitter has chosen to create. The New York Times reports that the filters work much like they do in Instragram, allowing tweet photos with various effects.
In addition, an employee of the company also stated that it is planning to add more tools as one to upload and edit videos that does not rely on third party applications. Interesting, is not it?
