Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Apple Launches New "Verse" from its advertising campaign with the iPad. This time speaks of Esa-Pekka Salonen pianist and their application to bring all the secrets of classical music to the general public. In the video we see the same Esa-Pekka with his iPad composing various parts of a classic song and then testing it with his orchestra.

The other verse, the travel writer Cherie King, shows that even suffering from deafness can travel around the world with the help of an iPad to communicate in other languages​​, navigate maps, make videoconferencing, store pictures in networks social and search for information.

Here are the videos of both "verse":

Pocket version for Mac makes this work very easy and can also read the posts downloaded without internet connection. 

We will see the launch of this app version for Mac, the different ways to store content and its integration with the iOS version. Although there is a web version of the app is, in my opinion, more achieved so let's focus on it.

If you have the iOS app and an associated account, the best you can do to get the most out of Pocket for Mac is to use the same credentials.

Facebook removed Poke and camera apps for iOS

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

Last Friday we met the withdrawal by his two Facebook apps for iOS. These two applications have gone unnoticed by the App Store. Poke First of all, similar to instant messaging SnapChat has not earned thrill. The other was the Camera app with many effects to our iPhone.

Know? Not much? Well, I think that has been one of the reasons that have disappeared from the App Store. Both were created by the creative team of Facebook, but were not paid much attention, nor were conveniently updated.

Poke was an application that was never important, the number of users that managed to attract was very small and even Zuckerberg acknowledged how little used. Camera was born shortly after the purchase of Instagram by Facebook and we all know who was the queen of photographic applications.

The business model of Facebook

In recent years we have witnessed a series of moves by Facebook which suggest that the company is guided by a team of hysterical chimpanzees, shopping without much sense, phones with Android software layer directed exclusively to use of social network... 

The explanation is simple... Facebook looking for a business model and even if we think we do, is not yet entirely clear. Obviously the potential is there and the network is undeniable, but it is not clear yet how to take real economic return.

More than one billion people are real potential and it shows the number of commercial brands that have a presence in the social network. A perfect channel to live and stay in touch with your customers canal. 

But still have a long way to go, as happened to Google. We have recently seen shopping companies, which then sell for not getting desired results. 

Cloak: antisocial social network

Add to Flipboard Magazine.

There are days when you just want to be alone and no communication with the outside world. No matter the reason, or even no reason, simply is like we are. At such times our iPhone can help us in getting silence. That is the goal that has Cloak, will help us not to talk to anyone.

To achieve, this application connects to social networks you use (Foursquare, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook ...) and tells us if a contact has posted a message whose location is near us. Thus, if we go down the street, Cloak notify us that he or she are approaching. Quick, changes sidewalk!

We can even choose the range you want to use, and if we want to serve for everyone or just for a list of people who have marked. Maybe we just want to avoid certain people. Very basic, free, with good design an application.

Will you be blacklisted from your friends?

Facebook App has been updated to version 9.0 for iOS. The new application version brings exciting new features, but the best is what is to come, as promise from the offices of this social network.

Facebook brings new and good news. The latest update of the app on iOS has already come to the Apple Store and comes loaded with new features. In particular there are three new features in Facebook 9.0, but some other developments are coming in the near future.

Facebook 9.0 now allows us to respond directly to comments on pages that have enabled the feature, without being outstanding. In addition, group administrators will review, approve and deny more easily new content posted by members. Finally, in its version for iPad Now we see post on the most current issues or trendings topics. One way to approach the mechanics of Facebook Pages.

But perhaps the most interesting of Facebook 9.0 is what is coming. The company recently announced it will add the "close friends" that work similarly to "Find Friends" iPhone but with your Facebook friends feature. This feature would be available for Facebook 9.0 within weeks but only in the USA, so the rest of the world will have to wait a little longer.
