10 Unusual Colors iPad Could Have

05 May, 2011 by
iPhone
Black and White – these are the colors that we saw on iPhones and iPads. These are the colors that Apple has been feeding us with for the last years. Sure, “keep it nice and simple”, Jobs would say, but why this lack of customizations? One thing that we totally hate about Apple is the fact that we can’t customize its OS, and this is why open-source Android will get so many followers. On the hardware part, Apple may have move a little bit ahead, with Smart Covers and the engravings, but it just doesn’t enough for some, and that includes me also. A painting solution is provided to us by ColorWare, but the prices are quite high, the basic customization starts from 400$. One neat thing about the website is that they have a customization page, where one can, at least, fantasize about how original his iPad could look like… You can change the body, antenna and even the logo’s colors. We’ve played a little around with the black version and came up with 10 unusual looks for the iPad. Tell us which did you like the most.

Saving Passwords on Chrome? Time to Panic!

Tiny Tip
Google Chrome has taken over from Firefox as the primary web browser for me and I believe so, that's the case for many of you as well. As any normal user would do, even I have a habit of "Remembering Passwords" on some of the frequently used websites. Though I make it a point not to save passwords for highly private services like email, the "Remember Password" option is too catchy and useful to completely disable it. Well, if you are someone who saves passwords on Chrome, you are in for a shock. The below infographic will tell you why it is time to panic

So, all you need to do to take a peek at your passwords is to click on settings icon, going to Options and then to Personal Stuff and then click on Manage save passwords. It is true that the web browser is as personal as anything else on a personal computer and you must be given an option to edit your saved passwords, but seriously, the manner in which it is handled is way too dumb, not even a Master Password option? Really? Update: For those who are wondering about Firefox having similar...

News, Social Media
osama-dead-video No surprise this! Within hours of US Naval Seals hunting down Osama Bin Laden, spammers on Facebook have gotten into their dirty games with a new "Watch the Osama Shoot down video" scam which has gotten viral, by taking different forms like clickjacking and comment-jacking. And guess what? Wikileaks gets the blame for the non-existant leak!
Osama is dead, watch this exclusive CNN video which was censored by Obama Administration due to level of violence, a must watch. Leaked by Wikileaks.
Obviously the (non-existant) video is fake. We still don't have the picture of shot Osama, forget about the video of it! As I mentioned before, there are other forms of this viral video spam and you should be slapping yourself if you fall for it. Knowing the importance of Osama's shoot down, it was always expected, that someone would come up with these dirty tricks to scam innocents lurking around Facebook, and still the people behind Facebook haven't done anything at all to shut this crap. In case you have already fallen prey to this particular scam, share this post with your friends and hope that it would significantly wash away your sins...
