Dropbox Introduces Carousel Gallery

Dropbox Introduces Carousel GalleryApps have taken over our lives these days to a great extent, and no longer do you need to trouble yourself with a physical photo album for your stored memories, as everything has gone digital now. New apps might make it a snap to capture photos, but to actually archive and catalog those is another challenge altogether. Dropbox intends to help you out with the introduction of Carousel, which happens to be a gallery for all the photos and videos from your life.

Carousel would combine the photos within your Dropbox alongside those snapshots that were captured on your phone, where it will automatically back up new shots as you take them. Carousel would then go ahead and sort out all of these memories by event, allowing you to return to the right time and date if you need to pull out something from the past. What makes it different from other mobile galleries would be the fact that your Carousel’s size will not be constrained by the space on your handset.

Apart from that, Carousel also offers the ability to carry out private conversations, as they believe that such memories are meant to be shared among your close and loved ones. This lets you share hundreds of photos without taking any more time than it would by sending a single text. You can pick it up for the iOS and Android platforms.[Press Release]

BlackBerry is willing to stop making phones if they keep losing money

BlackBerry CEO John Chen has long made it obvious that he wants to turn a profit by 2016, but it’s now clear that nothing will stand in the way of that goal — not even his company’s smartphones. While devices are still part of the plan, Chen tells…

Samsung Galaxy S4 With Sprint Spark Gets Wi-Fi Calling

Samsung Galaxy S4 With Sprint Spark Gets Wi Fi CallingIf you happen to have picked up a Samsung Galaxy S4 with Sprint Spark, here is news for you that might just help you sit up and take notice. It seems that the Galaxy S4 with Sprint Spark would make it the fourth Wi-Fi Calling enabled smartphone from Sprint, and this is made possible via an over-the-air update that had started to roll out earlier today. This particular update notification will be pushed to all of Sprint’s customers automatically throughout the coming few weeks, so if you have yet to receive yours, fret not, and play the patience card.

For those who are not in the know, Wi-Fi Calling happens to be a free service which will allow you to use voice and messaging services over current home, office and public Wi-Fi networks. Thanks to the implementation of Wi-Fi Calling, one will be able to experience improved voice, data and messaging services in locations that did not have any mobile network coverage before, or extremely limited coverage ala dead zones.

If you are an existing customer with the said handset, you ought to be able to enjoy enhanced coverage when it comes to in-building coverage or areas with challenging network conditions, while setting up the entire shebang is a snap since everything would be seamless and happens in the background. Best of all, experience unlimited voice calling and messaging on Wi-Fi, but do bear in mind that standard CDMA international rates apply for international calls. [Press Release]

Adorable baby freaking out about a car wash is how we should all feel

Adorable baby freaking out about a car wash is how we should all feel

You can totally imagine what this adorable kid going through an automatic car wash for the first time is thinking. He takes a swig out of his juice to take the edge off but is quickly shocked at what he’s seeing. He looks all around at the car wash gadgets (which he probably thinks are monsters), does a double take, a triple take and looks over at his parent with a face that basically says: "Yo, you see this shit?"

LG L70 To Be Launched By MetroPCS

LG L70 To Be Launched By MetroPCSFolks who are on the lookout for the LG L70, here is some good news for you. This particular smartphone is set to appear on MetroPCS later this April, where it happens to be a member of the new LG Series III which was unveiled earlier this year even before Mobile World Congress in Barcelona had a chance to kick off. The LG L70 happens to be an Android-powered smartphone that will cater to the low end and mid-range market, where an affordable price point delivers pretty decent hardware specifications to boot.

Why MetroPCS, and just which particular crystal ball did we gaze into? No palantirs from Middle Earth were used in the process, but it seems that the leaked image from @evleaks point to a MetroPCS branding spotted on the LG L70 itself.

In terms of hardware, the LG L70 will arrive with hardware specifications that should be more or less similar to its internationally available sibling. This would translate to a 4.5” IPS display at 800 × 480 resolution, an 8MP or 5MP camera at the back, a front-facing VGA camera, a dual-core 1.2GHz processor, 1GB RAM, 4GB of internal memory, 3G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity; GPS support and a 2,100 mAh battery. Good thing the LG L70 will have Android 4.4 KitKat right from the get go despite it being a non-flagship device. Now to wait for MetroPCS’ official announcement.

This GIF shows what sound actually looks like

If you picture what sound looks like in your head, you’ll probably think of some picture graph of a sound wave. But no one can actually see those up and down scribbles with their eyeballs. So what does sound actually look like in real life? It’s invisible but sound looks like what you see in the GIF above. A gust of air.
