Apple iOS 6 beta version restricts number of apps per iPhone or iPad

Apple says that the new beta versions of its iOS 6 operating system restricts the number of mobile apps that you can have installed on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch-– a limitation that didn't exist on iOS 4 or iOS 5. It's still not clear if that will be just for the beta version or if this will be permanent in iOS 6.
But the limit is high enough that only the most app-crazy owners would be annoyed. Once your iOS 6–equipped iDevice has over 500 apps installed on it, you will begin to experience slow booting, auto-rebooting, and other issues.

LinkedIn Confirms Hack And Leak Of “Some” User Passwords

Shortly after it was reported that nearly 6.5 million LinkedIn account passwords were leaked onto the net, LinkedIn leapt into action and mounted their own investigation.
Though most of the morning was spent claiming that they could not confirm a security breach, a new announcement on their blog reveals that at least some of those leaked passwords correspond to LinkedIn accounts.

There are still plenty of unanswered questions here though. The company has yet to offer their official word yet on just how many users were impacted, how the accounts were compromised, or whether or not the email addresses that correspond with those passwords were also leaked. LinkedIn’s Vicente Silveira was quick to note that the investigation is far from over though, and with any luck they’ll soon discover and disclose those details very soon.

Face Recognition on Facebook Mobile?

Face.com’s CEO has shrugged off rumors that it is being acquired by Facebook for up to $100 million when asked. But the addition of its facial recognition tech to Facebook’s mobile apps could make sure friend tagging continues as the social network’s user base shifts away from desktops.
In fact, about 45% of users of Face.com’s app KLIK end up sharing their photos on Facebook, which shows how popular mobile facial recognition could be.
For the record, Face.com people are keeping their cards close to their chest. Face.com’s CEO Gil Hirsch flatly tells: “We have nothing new to announce or share at this time.”
But even while Facebook has been pushing a lot of fancy new enhancements to its mobile offerings (its Camera mobile app being the most recent) there are still a surprising number of features that have yet to be covered by the company.
So, perhaps because nature abhors a vacuum, we’re now getting a full whack of reports of what the company might buy or launch to make up for that, including today’s Face.com news that Facebook is looking to buy mobile/PC browser company Opera and hiring ex-Apple hardware engineers to work on its own phone.
We may just, quite possibly, be in the middle of a Facebook news bubble and that half of what we are reading about Facebook and mobile may never come to pass — or could take ages to come to fruition: Buffy the Android slayer is reportedly still six to 12 months away going by the timing in the AllThingsD post from November. And this is not the first time we’ve heard that Face.com is in the Facebook acquisition line.
But, if you swallow that large grain of salt, there is a huge amount of sense in the social network looking at beefing up its mobile arsenal with companies like these, which offer features that Facebook currently does not, and therefore offer the promise of getting mobile users to spend more time on the social network — something that is a concern for the company.

FB Launches Facebook Camera – An Instagram-Style Photo Filtering, Sharing, Viewing iOS App

Facebook is dead serious about mobile. Today it begins rolling out Facebook Camera for iOS to English-speaking countries, a standalone photos app where you can shoot, filter, and share single or sets of photos and scroll through a feed of photos uploaded to Facebook by your friends. Developed by Facebook’s photos team without the help of Instagram because the acquisition deal hasn’t closed yet, Facebook Camera is designed for quicker publishing than Facebook’s multi-featured primary mobile app.
Facebook Camera lets you rapidly pick one or more photos, apply filters, tag friends and locations, add a description, and post. While its 14 filters, batch uploads, and streamlined interface are a big step up from Facebook for iOS, the design isn’t as beautiful as Instagram and neither are the photos you’ll see in it. When asked if Facebook Camera would become a direct competitor to the photosharing network it bought last month, a spokesman told  “As Mark asserted, we’re committed to building and growing Instagram independently, so I anticipate some healthy competition.”

5 Signs That You’re a Tech Junkieee

According to Urban Dictionary, a Tech Junkie is defined as “A tech savvy person who cannot function/live without constantly being connected to the current technology. This person is constantly thinking and/or talking about the current tech or what’s just around the corner.”

Sound a little too familiar? Think you may be addicted to tech? Here are 5 signs that you are a tech junkie:

1. You always crave the latest devices – Doesn’t matter what it is, you need to have the latest tech gadget. I had a friend who ran out and bought a Roomba  robotic vacuum cleaner when it was first introduced. It didn’t matter that he lived in a New York City apartment the size of a dressing room. He had to have it, end of story. (Disclosure: I have a Scooba  and LOVE it!)
2. Disconnecting is not an option – Nor food nor friends nor sleep can keep a tech addict from their handheld gadget. You must be connected at all times and feel incomplete without your device in hand. Ever been out with a friend or romantic other and find yourself (and maybe even them) constantly emailing/texting/tweeting the evening away? Yup, classic tech junkie.
3. Standing in line for your next tech fix is a must – Anytime Apple sets a launch date for a new product release, you can bet that you, along with scores of other techies, will be in line to buy said product. True happiness will only be reached when you walk out with your new toy. Now that’s some tech mojo!
4. You wonder why everyone you know isn’t a tech junkie, too – You love to spread the word about the joys of technology and can’t help but want others to experience the same feeling you get from having all the tech goodies the world has to offer.
5. You cannot go a day without it – The thought of going 24 hours without technology is unfathomable to you. Imagine sitting in your grandparent’s living room with only a small, battery operated radio playing. No HDtv, no computer, no smart phone, no PlayStation, no iPod, no iPad, not even a fax machine…perish the thought!

Remember, admitting you have a problem is the first step. Now, get out there and buy that new phone/television/gaming system. You know you want it.
