There’s a live stream out there today for the iPad 5 event as dropped by Apple this morning. This stream works on Safari web browsers for multiple platforms and can be viewed with Apple TV through the Apple Events channel.

Some users have noticed an update this week of their Safari desktop web browser app bringing about an OS X Mavericks-specific feature: Push Notifications for their Notifications Center. This feature was spoken about earlier this year at WWDC 2013 and has been active for many users working with the Beta build of OS X Mavericks […]
MasterCard has come up with a way to add more to the digital reading experience. You know how you flip through a magazine on your tablet and see something that you really like? Normally you’d take down the name of the product and then search online for buying options.
What MasterCard is introducing changes all that and reduces the process to a single step. The app is called ShopThis!, and it’ll let you buy the item that you want by tapping on the article or in the ads.
The item will be added to your cart, and you can then continue to flip through the contents of the magazine before finalizing the purchase and checking out.
The app works in conjunction with MasterCard’s MasterPass which offers digital and mobile payment solutions. In essence, it turns your smartphone or tablet into a credit card of sorts so you can shop, shop, shop.
ShopThis! was developed by MasterCard Labs’ incubation program, and you’ll be able to check out the first use of the technology in the November iOS issue of WIRED.

I just noticed that Mozilla has finally put up a release notes page for Firefox 1.5.0.3. However, this does not mean that it is released but it is often an indication that it will be very soon. They don’t have any changes or anything announced on the page and appears that they have only copied the template from 1.5.0.2 right now. If you can’t hold on and wait for the official release then go ahead and download the candidate build.

Opera is taking the mobile market by storm with its mobile browser. In July Opera Mini users browsed their way to nearly 1 billion pageviews, and it currently occupies about 0.24% of the total browser market according to Net Applications. That’s not too shabby since it’s being ranked among desktop browsers.
It’s not surprising that Opera continues to work heavily on the Opera Mini browser to pack in even more great features. Now Opera Mini 4 Beta 2 was just released earlier this morning, and with it comes dozens of improvements and bug fixes.
Two of the more notable features with this release is the ability to browse sites horizontally (pictured to the right), and the option to change your search engine. Now you can use Google as your default search engine instead of Yahoo. Here’s a quick look at everything that’s new, and it appears that there was some tender love and care given to Blackberry devices:
For those of you wondering there will be at least one more Beta release before it hits final form. I also received some good news today, and it’s that the problem rendering our site’s navigation bar has been confirmed as a bug. Now they are working on a fix for it. 🙂
Kudos to Opera on yet another fine pre-release, and I can’t wait to see what Opera 9.5 Alpha will bring on Tuesday.

If you happen to have friends who can be big blabbermouths, then you need Spoiler Shield. It’s a social media browser app that also functions as a shield of sorts.
The app works easily with Facebook and Twitter. In order to start using it, you’ll have to log in and allow access to both social media accounts. Once you’re connected, you can then choose from a list of sports teams or TV programs, and the app will automatically look for relevant keywords and filter out any potential spoiler posts from your feed.
Nothing will be spoiled for you the next time someone posts a status update about your favorite TV show or NFL or MLB team. Spoiler Shield will block that status and keep you ignorant about whatever has happened until you get a chance to see it for yourself.
Spoiler Shield is available for free on the iOS. An Android app is currently in the works.

BBM for Android and iPhone will take a second-attempt at launching today, with BlackBerry’s instant messaging service hitting the Google Play and iOS App Store, though even if you can download it, you won’t necessarily be able to use it. After the botched launch last month, this time around there’ll be a two-stage process to […]
