Instagram has become very, very popular, while its application has recently passed the 100 million users. While the company announced that it would launch a version for BlackBerry 10 (similar to the case of Netflix ), it seems that the popular app at least will be hitting Windows Phone 8, the latest version of the mobile operating system called Microsoft . This is undoubtedly good news for Windows Phone users, since from the beginning could not have a native app Instagram in your mobile .
How much security there about this if you have not confirmed Instagram? As a promotional image of the new Nokia Lumia 620 shows the application icon from the available.
The origin of the rumor, as indicated, is Chinese, and as you may know China has lately been the first to come up with some rumors that in most cases have proven to be true, so there is a high probability that this is so .
It is also likely that the app is only available for WP8, meaning that mobile users with WP7.8, 7.5 and others can forget about it.

It seems that the German government has decided to put their trust in the new BlackBerry mobile platform, known as BlackBerry 10. The German government has always had phones and computers tipped for their employees and agents. BlackBerry may have lost popularity among the agencies of the U.S. government, yet the Canadian company has sold 5,000 units of the new BlackBerry Z10 to the German government.
The 5,000 units will have the technology Secusmart, which provides an extra layer of security for the phone, which is not surprising given that his government will use and therefore very sensitive data is handled.
This new BlackBerry contract with the German government undoubtedly serve to increase the popularity of the platform a bit BB10 and stoke his spark, which frankly is not far off but neither is alive to say.
Will this contract be what really drives a BlackBerry and lead to success? Should the rest of the sector companies start paying more attention to the movements of the Canadian from now or even an imminent threat?

Teams from Apple are not cheap, that's a fact. Virtually any educational institution is best for you to buy a Windows PC instead of a common Apple Mac. Still, the company Apple has shown interest in supporting education and has quietly updated its line of computer desktop, particularly on the iMac model oriented education sector. This is a 21.5-inch iMac has a cost of $ 1100 dollars, or $ 200 less than the cost of a traditional consumer iMac. Note that in any case is more expensive than the model that was released in 2011 and it cost only $ 1000.
The good part is that you have a hardware that is safe enough to withstand possible homework. What can get an educational institution with the purchase of this new iMac? Well you would be doing with a computer running an Intel Core i3 3.3GHz, also has 4GB of RAM, 500GB hard drive and has an Intel HD 4000 integrated. The resolution of the screen as you would expect, is Full HD.
It is a bit basic model as they can, but given the sector to which it is oriented, seems to be more than enough.

Any person having a smartphone is sure to be addicted to some of their applications, and most likely this is a game like Angry Birds or perhaps client Facebook or Twitter. But that does not matter, because we're not here to talk about particular applications, but roughly, since this year is expected to downloads apps reach 70,000 million. Half of all Android apps will be downloaded, 41% will be iOS and other insurance will go to the hands of Windows Phone and BlackBerry 10 (this includes both apps for tablets as mobile ).
obviously iOS will dominate the mobile sector in the field of tablets, while Android will do its part with smartphones. Still, Google may shine a little more this year thanks to the tablets of modern technology of Amazon, the new Kindle Fire HD, which are among the most popular on the market.
The 75% of downloaded apps for tablets belong to the iPad, while Android will remain at 21% and leave a mere 3% to WP. In terms of smartphones, Android will win with 58%, Apple will settle for 33% and between BB and Windows Phone will reach about 8%.

When it comes to Apple , rumors always say this. Sometimes we do not see one again for a couple of weeks maybe, but there are times when something comes up almost every day. This time we'll talk about two smartphones that we mentioned earlier: the iPhone 5S and low-cost iPhone that apple company is preparing.
Obviously, the low-cost iPhone, which would be made of polycarbonate, point to emerging markets and those where Android smartphones $ 100 are very sold. Regarding the iPhone 5S, we assume that Apple will not want to break its tradition and eventually launch.
Returning to the subject of rumor, one analyst suggests that both smartphones are destined to come to light in June along with the iOS operating system 7.
Would not it be a little rushed these releases occur mid-year? Well certainly yes if you see the history of Apple, but there are two reasons for this to happen: 1) do not agree that the launch of the high-end version of the iPhone is delayed again as it did last year, which gave the competition time to launch new models and 2) these new iPhones will be based largely on the iPhone 5, so that the development time would be considerably less.
IPhone is expected to run with a 5S A7 CPU and 28nm low-cost model with a 32nm A6, and the latter would be available in six different colors.

Not only in the private sector, its use, demists a major role, but Internet occupies nearly every facet of our lives. The business world has figured out this need right now is a fundamental tool for sectors such as marketing and sales of products and services. More than ever, the world of business, no hesitation. Any company that resists the use of Internet as a communication and sales of their products, will quickly lose its place in the sector and as a result their business disappear.
This trend is unstoppable, with no reverse Internet. Companies increasingly use network-related services: file storage , email, digital distribution, ultimately, businesses are inconceivable without the existence of the Internet. Surprisingly, a recent study shows that the development of enterprise digital media has taken a completely different direction than expected.
The study was developed by the Ecole Hotelier de Lausanne and shows that hotel companies are abandoning the use of social media as a marketing channel and sell their products to re-direct sales. This shows that either, with a greater focus on direct selling and getting high commissions portal and online travel agency business can be saved. Distribution costs may be lower, if one focuses on direct bookings and the use of smaller niche sites. Also the use of popular social networks like Facebook, Twitter and TripAdvisor now can save many businesses in the catering sector. Although these channels are ideally suited for marketing, also can go wrong. The uncertainty is related to some sites, like Facebook, for the protection of data makes the risk of new incidences enfrenarse increase.
