Samsung’s iPad is here at last

A leak this morning showed us the latest in Samsung tablet technology – a device called Galaxy Tab Advanced 2. The name doesn’t suggest it, but this is just about as close as any company’s gotten to a real competitor for the latest round of Apple’s iPad. Not that they’ll be running iOS apps or anything, but Samsung’s most certainly … Continue reading

Google launches dedicated podcast app for Android

Google hasn’t had a direct answer to Apple’s dedicated Podcasts app. You’ve had to either listen in Google Play Music (not ideal if you hate merging audio sources) or use a not-well-publicized player built into Android’s search feature. You won’t hav…

Adobe Brings Enhanced Document Cloud Integration With Office 365


Adobe has announced that the integration of Document Cloud with Microsoft Office 365 has been improved. This will enable Office 365 users to create, edit, view, and secure PDFs through Office 365 online. They will be able to do perform all of these tasks from the toolbar in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OneDrive, and SharePoint.

This is an extension of the strategic partnership that Microsoft announced with Adobe in September last year. The partnership was meant to focus on integrations between Adobe Sign and Office 365 services.

The services and the newly introduced Combine Files by Adobe functionality will let users select several files at once and then pull them into one PDF through SharePoint document libraries with just a few clicks.

The latest PDF services integrations into Office 365 will provide users with new fidelity when they’re working with PDF documents, such as rich previews of documents within OneDrive and SharePoint.

These services are part of Adobe Document Cloud and are now available in the ribbon for online versions of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Users will now be able to create high-quality, full fidelity PDS from these apps easily.

“Building on the initial success of our partnership focused on Adobe Sign, we’re thrilled that Microsoft Office 365 customers now have access to the expansive PDF services from Adobe, right within the tools they use every day,” said Ron Markezich, corporate vice president, Microsoft Office 365.

LEGO Hasselblad 503CX Camera Looks Just Like the Real Deal

LEGO bricks can be used to create just about anything you can dream up. For instance, check out this sweet LEGO camera from Taiwan-based photographer and obvious LEGO genius Helen Sham. Some of you will know right away that it is a Hasselblad 503CX film camera, except that this one is created entirely of LEGO pieces.

From a distance, it looks incredibly real. Well, it may not be functional (yet), but the inside is just as detailed as the outside. Inside you’ll find a frame counter, film winder, and a spring-based shutter button with tactile sensation when firing the shutter.

But that’s not all. She can actually load a real film cartridge into this camera and even frame a scene with the folding waist-level viewfinder. This was clearly a labor of love for Helen. And it didn’t take her as long as you might think to build this beauty either. It took Helen only 2 hours and 1,120 pieces of LEGO elements to assemble, though I’m sure it took her much longer to actually plan out the construction.

I really hope that this will become an official LEGO set, and you can help make that a reality by voting for it on LEGO Ideas. Her next plans are to install a microlens so it can actually take photos, although it would capture digital images rather than film like the real deal. Great job, Helen. You are a true LEGO master.
