| [1] Apple's Jony Ive To Dump Skeuomorphic Design In iOS 7 |
Forbes |
| Added on: 25-05-2013 08:27:45 |
| This isn't a great surprise to be honest. The gossip coming out of Cupertino has for years been saying that Jony Ive really doesn't like skeuomorphic design: whatever the opinions of Steve Jobs and Scott Forstall. Given that the latter two are now gone (for very different reasons of course) and Ive is in charge there isn't any great shock in seeing him imposing his views on the design: With the grand unveiling of Apple’s next operating system for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch approaching, sources have provided detailed descriptions of what users and developers alike could expect from the software’s fresh look. |

| The WSJ is reporting that Google is working on various technologies to bring wireless internet access to a number of developing countries. This is an absolutely excellent plan and one that we should be applauding. But not necessarily for what it will do to Google itself: rather, for what it will do to those developing countries: Google Inc. is deep into a multipronged effort to build and help run wireless networks in emerging markets as part of a plan to connect a billion or more new people to the Internet. |

| [1] Friday Box Office: 'Furious 6' Earns $39m, 'Hangover 3' Nabs $14.5m, 'Epic' Grabs $9m |
Forbes |
| Added on: 25-05-2013 07:56:40 |
| It's looking like a huge Memorial Day weekend thus far, and the much anticipated head-to-head match up is looking like a non-starter. Fast and Furious 6 (officially titled Furious 6 in the film's credits) opened on Friday with a massive $39 million, including $6.5 million in advance-night screenings. That tops the $3.6 million midnight haul and $34 million opening Friday for Fast Five respectively. The fifth 'Faster/Furiouser' entry ended its Fri-Sun debut in late April with $86.1 million. Both Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End and The Day After Tomorrow earned about 3.6x their opening day over the Fri-Mon debut, which would give Furious 6 a stunning $142 million by Monday. The Lost World: Jurassic Park, Bruce Almighty, and MIB3 had Memorial Day hauls over/under 4.0x their Friday number, which would give Furious 6 $156 million over Fri-Mon, good for the Memorial Day record. A harshly front-loaded weekend such as X-Men: The Last Stand (2.7x its $45 million Friday) gets Furious 6 a 'mere' $105 million by Monday. So put it 'between $105 million and $156 million, with $130 million looking likely. |

Tax bloggers have all been breathlessly following the saga of the IRS Cincinnati gang that couldn't sort straight and the topic of who else the IRS might be picking on has come up.

| Large pharmaceutical companies like Pfizer and Merck are often celebrated for their marketing acumen. But, when compared with really successful marketing companies like the Internet giant Google, their performance is less than stellar. True marketing leaders must innovate continuously to stay ahead of the market, by creating needs, rather than only responding to them. To them, marketing begins with choosing which products to develop and ends with the sales process. That is what Google has accomplished with Google Glass. |

| [1] Four Tips for a Successful Online Apartment Search |
Forbes |
| Added on: 25-05-2013 04:50:03 |
| If you're relocating and looking to find your apartment online, the search process is a little different than taking a jaunt around the neighborhood. With the help of Rent.com and a few internet tools, your online apartment search will be a breeze, and you won't even have to get out of your pajamas. 1. Use Google Maps You may not be able to walk through the neighborhood that you're searching for an apartment in, but you can get a feel of the layout by looking at Google Maps or Google Earth. These tools will pinpoint local bars, restaurants, cafes, grocery stores and other amenities within the area. Both resources will also designate parks and green spaces, schools, bike lanes and nearby transit stops. You can even use the Street View option to get a virtual tour of your potential 'hood. Another helpful tip is to search on Google Maps during rush hour to see how bad traffic is in your area. If you're looking at an apartment on a main street, chances are the traffic is going to be worse. 2. Cast a Wide Net When you start your apartment search on Rent.com, check off only those features and amenities that are "must-haves." This will open up your search and allow you to weed through a larger amount of places. For instance, an apartment may not have the rooftop pool you've always wanted, but it does have a beautiful deck with a view. Once a slew of listings has popped up, prioritize your "wants" and start filtering. 3. Use a Virtual Guide Virtual guides will show you what's new, hot or a popular mainstay in your new 'hood. CitySearch, local publications and your city's Time Out Magazine will help you locate what is going on in your neighborhood. If you're a foodie who loves to go out, these tools are great to ensure you find an apartment in an area that features places you will enjoy. 4. Measure Safety This is one of the biggest drawbacks of searching for apartments online, because you may not truly know the environment of your new place without walking around the neighborhood. For example, some up-and-coming areas of large metro cities that are currently going through gentrification may have pockets of slightly dangerous streets. Check out SpotCrime--you can type in your new address, neighborhood or zip code to find arrests, arson, assault, theft, vandalism and burglary in the area that you are considering. Good luck with your apartment search! |

It's the weekend of the Indianapolis 500, and -- if you happen to be in the jet set -- of the running of Formula One's Monaco Grand Prix. There's no better time to take measure of the state of America's love affair with the automobile. And no better way to celebrate that with a roadtrip. In the United States more than 31 million Americans will hop into their cars for a getaway this weekend, with the average trip adding nearly 700 miles to the odometer. For folks staying closer to home, a common destination will be the auto dealership. Dealers forsee big sales this weekend, with the industry on track to move 15 million cars in 2013, up 6%. |
