Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
Apple has been gaining web share—both as a platform and with its Safari browser—at the expense of Windows, a new study reveals. From April 08 to April 09, use of OS X-based browser to surf the internet grew from 7.38% to 9.73%, Safari use (presumably both Mac and Window flavors) rose 6.31 to 8.21 percent, and the iPhone reached 0.55%, up from 0.15%. The iPod touch’s use grew to 0.15%, up from 0.03%.
While Internet Explorer continues to dominate with more than 80% use, its numbers have been slowly slipping, losing ground to both Macintosh and the cross-platform Firefox browser. Hell, even Linux is making gains.
Why are people switching? I’ll grant you that Microsoft has made great strides since Internet Explorer 6 (which is still being used, despite being almost nine years old, rendering problems with modern code, and having a terrible security reputation), but how many people who have tried Firefox, Chrome, or Safari really prefer Internet Explorer? Is this evidence of a shift away from the Windows platform, or just from IE?
