Flash Player 10.1 For Android!

Posted on April 16, 2011 by admin

Everybody knows that one of the biggest let-downs of phones and other mobile devices hasFlash player always been the inability to have that P.C. browsing experience. This means that most mobile browsing is limited to those stripped down mobile sites that don’t really give much to be desired. Browsing on the full sites always results in the presence of those empty boxes as a testament that there was something there that you are missing. Those days of boring web browsing are practically gone with the arrival of Flash player 10.1 for android.

Flash player 10.1 is a run plug-in for mobile devices such as your Android. It will enable you to browse pages on the web just as you would on a real live computer complete with all the games and videos. It also allows you to view the more interactive content on the net such as you would find on many flash websites.  Having a flash player added to your browser will be like being handed an access card to the real freedom that the Internet was meant to offer. I guess the icing on the cake would be the fact that the Flash player is also available free of charge and you can download it directly from the adobe website or even simpler would be to pay a visit to the android market.

There is however a caution that has been placed regarding this particular software and devices that contain the NVIDIA Tegra 2 super chip such as the Motorola ATRIX and the Dell streak 7. The browser that comes with these devices already has a pre-installed flash player optimized for the Tegra 2 thus they won’t need this particular download. Be sure to check whether your device contains the super chip either with your manufacturer or the device’s user manual.

Currency Converter!

Posted on April 16, 2011 by admin

Currency ConverterThe thing about applications such as currency converters is that you will never know just how much you need one until you actually have some currency that you would like to convert. By then it is usually too late and you have to quickly rush to the nearest news stands looking for the nearest business daily hoping to find the most recent exchange rates. If you are lucky, you might actually chance upon this information but if you are converting to a currency that is not among the major ones, this information may be missing. What would you do then?

The truth is – a smart person will not even bother going to a news stand. All information on all the current exchange rates is usually available online and this information is so accurate that in most websites it is updated by the minute. But even accessing the net to find a suitable currency converter can be a bother. If you have an android phone then you don’t even have to bother. Simply download the android currency converter application and you will be good to go.

With the currency converter you can quickly convert between any currencies that you may wish. With the most recent version of the software, every single currency in the world has been included so you are always on the safe. You can also graph currency pairs over time so you can tell how well or poorly one is doing and you can also get the latest news on each of the currencies. You can also create a portfolio for a select few that you have set aside for easier following. The news that you get will always be up to the minute so no developments will go unnoticed. This application is currently ad supported but this will only be a minor inconvenience in the long run.

Aquarium Live Wallpaper

Posted on April 16, 2011 by admin

Still image wallpapers are quite classical but the truth is, after staring at the sameLive wallpaper wallpaper for a couple of days, it starts to get old and boring to look at. Changing your wallpaper every other day can also be quite cumbersome and it doesn’t help to know it will be boring in just about a week’s time. What you need is the kind of paper that will never seem to grow old. This kind of wallpaper would have to be lively and colorful. To be precise, it will have to literally be the kind of wallpaper that comes ‘alive’. The aquarium live wallpaper is just the kind of wallpaper that you need.

From the Aquarium live wallpaper, you will get a home screen that is alive with lifelike 3D fish and plants. The background is also quite stunning and the motion of all the fish and the plants is so smooth that it is literally lifelike. But wallpapers featuring live animals and environments in motion are not entirely uncommon. Aquariums and fish are in fact quite a common feature in animated wallpapers because the simple swimming motion of the fish is quite easy to replicate. What is it that sets this particular wallpaper apart from all the others?

Quite simply, it is the fact that the fish don’t just swim around blankly. You can also interact with the fish moving around in your home screen. If you tap your screen once, you’ll get the fish’s attention. When you tap it twice, you will be feeding the fish. When you tap on a particular fish, it’s going to squirm away. This last feature is available only in the most recent version. Unfortunately, not all devices are able to support this live wallpaper so it is a good idea for you to confirm first that your device is supported before attempting to install.
