Nexus One;The phone that got closest to beating the record of the Legendary IPhone.

Competition is what pushes giants like Google,Microsoft, and Apple to their very limit.Competion and ego are what present us with marvels like IPhone and Google phone.

Back in 2007, when Apple bedazzled everyone with its sexy Iphone, companies like Google frantically started working to make a miracle of their own.And thus started the war of Android smartphones.

On January 6th, Google unleashed its own slinky, sexy, and smart phone- Nexus One a.k.a Google Phone.Nexus One is powered by Android 2.1 operating system, it features 3.7’’ AMOLED screen, 1Ghz Snapdragon processor with 512mb of Ram and 5 megapixels autofocus camera with flash to go with it.Yes, you heard it right, 512 mb of RAM and an autofocus camera of 5 megapixel!

Unlocked version of Nexus One will go on sale for US $529.99, and the one locked with T-Mobile for 2 years contract will cost US $179.99. The CDMA version of the phone will be arriving on Verizon Wireless in Spring 2010. More on Nexus One availability and price plan can be found here.

But,unfortunately, the Nexus One could not beat the Iphone. Iphone still is considered as the best smartphone ever.Yes, the phone is faster and looks more stylish when compared to other Android based handsets available today. But it is nothing revolutionary, neither does it bring anything new to the table. The fact that it doesn’t support multitouch functionality doesn’t help its cause. In my opinion, Nexus One, like all others, is still trying to catch up on the original iPhone which was released back in 2007.

The Others

By
Just finished watching the fourth episode of season 4 and I noticed a couple of things. The way the episode portrayed the Others was extremely intriguing since the books do not divulge too much information about this icy mystique. In the episode, we first sense that the Others are about to come when we see the poured water freezing in front of Ghost. Whenever the Others appear, the temperature drops or they appear WHEN the temperatures drop. Research about them is scarce, as Samwell Tarly says in book five (small spoiler, sorry!). Whatever the case, they are correlated with a drop in temperatures. If you see water freezing instantly, you better get your dragon steel ready. We then see one of the Other taking the sacrificed baby on a horse to a mountain. This is where things get really interesting. The one riding the horse is the familiar Other. We have seen him before. He was the one leading the attack against the Night's Watch men on Fist of the First Men. But the second Othe...

Criss Angel Mindfreak: The Wizard of AXN

By
I'm pretty sure most of us is familiar with Criss Angel, and with good reasons.He is an American illusionist,magician, escapologist and stunt performer. Note that I wrote illusionist first, cause that's what Criss likes to think of himself. His show, Criss Angel Mindfreak, is broad casted on AXN on Wednesdays, at 16:30 GMT. Believe me, his illusions are mindblowing, and apparently impossible! But that's what Criss is best at;making the impossible seem normal! Allow me to give an example. Criss Angel has set himself the target of walking across Lake Mead,the largest lake in US. And he does succeed.He walks on water for about 200 yards.Now, remember people, its a lake.So it rules put any theories of plexiglass pillars.Moreover, Criss, at the end of his walk, start to sink under the water, eventually disappearing completely! The illusion is simply awesome, and many critics have failed to provide an explanation for this! One explanation says " He had completed construction...

Here's to Beethoven's 9th

By
This week was a LONG one. I didn't sleep a single day stress free, but heck, that's what college life is all about! Right now, I am way out of my comfort zone in my class. I'm taking Music in Stanley Kubrick's films, and I have no knowledge about music. I am learning how to describe music and all these new terms. Sometimes, it feels a bit overwhelming, with 2 tests, one presentation and 1 weekend project every week. But in the midst of all these chaos, I found one thing: Beethoven's 9th. I cannot describe the music maestro's 9th symphony and that's what is most beautiful about this masterpiece. Its everything and nothing at the same time. Its life made sound. Its energy made vibrations. Those crescendos takes you up high in the sky and let's you fly. It lets the emotion flow through your body smoothly. And the 4th movement fills you up with this inexplicable happiness. Oh! When they start the chorus, I feel something running through my body- something...
