Young Internet users have the attention of Google

Google has started working on a new initiative to revamp the user experience for users of its services that are 12 years old and younger. Although no specifics have been released, it seems likely that widely tapped tools like YouTube, search and the Chrome browser will be first up sometime in 2015. The VP of engineering in charge of the project, Pavni Diwanji, says there is a “push to change our products to be fun and safe for children.”

In an age with COPPA, the FTC’s Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, when many companies shun any users who are not at least 13 years of age and there seems to be an unwritten rule that young users should not be targeted for advertising, Google’s move may raise some eyebrows. However, Diwanji notes that kids are already accessing Google’s tools and technologies.

Diwanji thinks Google should take the approach of making their tools suitable for use by young users and teaching them how to use what is available, rather than trying to stop access. She also thinks kids have an untapped reservoir of creative potential that could be unleashed with technology so that they can “be more than just pure consumers of tech, but creators, too.” Google executives point to efforts like their Maker Camp, Doodle 4 Google competition, and Made with Code initiative as examples to support that position.

The FTC’s Maneesha Mithal indicates the agency’s role with regard to kids is “about kids being protected and promoting business compliance.” Mithal also thinks it is very important that “parents are in the driver’s seat.” Marc Rotenberg with the Electronic Privacy Information Center also has some words of warning, indicating “we [don't] want a world where our kids are sold things they don’t need.” Considering Google has a huge interest in advertising and the revenue gained from providing a platform for marketers, it should be no surprise that some are concerned about where Google may be headed with this initiative.

Diwanji is unfazed though and wants to “make sure every single part of Google is great for kids. They are the future, so why not give them the tools to let them create it.”

Do you think this is a smart move by Google or will they eventually regret this attempt?

Bluetooth SIG announces new 4.2 standard

The folks that manage the Bluetooth standards over at Bluetooth SIG announced an update to the standard taking it to Bluetooth 4.2, which includes some significant upgrades and changes. Perhaps the biggest change to come with this update is the ability for Bluetooth 4.2 devices to connect directly to the Internet using a new Bluetooth Smart Generic Attribute Profile (GATT) architecture.

Up to now, Bluetooth devices needed some sort of intermediary device to be able to connect to the Internet. With the new standard, devices will be able to connect to an access-ready router or similar access point and establish an Internet connection without the assistance of another device or app. Probably the biggest impact this new capability will have is going to be in the area of home automation as it will make it much easier for manufacturers to produce goods that can be controlled from anywhere in the world via the Internet.

For those concerned with privacy, and who isn’t these days, the new Bluetooth 4.2 standard brings a new level of privacy to devices that have their Bluetooth antennas turned on. The devices will no longer be trackable. The new devices will also be more power efficient. Users will also find that connection speeds are bumped up 2.5 times over the current standard and almost 10 times more data can pushed across a Bluetooth 4.2 connection as part of a huge capacity improvement.

The downside for those who are interested in this new standard is that it will take some time before any manufacturers are able to actually implement the new standard and get devices out to market. We anticipate this should occur during 2015.

Google’s Best Games of 2014 list released

Google is back at it today with a year end “best of” list for 2014. Following up on the release of best apps from a couple days ago, Google narrows things down just a bit with the release of their “Best Games of 2014.”

Like the list of best apps, the list of best games is dominated by free titles. It appears only seven out of the 100 games on the list are not free. Keep in mind though that game developers are much more likely to implement a variety of in-app purchases within their titles, whether it is things like power-ups, new levels, extra adventures or other features.

Hit the source link to check out the entire list. How many of these titles have you played in the past year? Any hidden gems out there that did not make the cut with Google that you would like to share with us?

Google Is Creating A Newer And Better CAPTCHA System

Those of you who have signed up for a new account online anywhere probably know of the annoying pain called CAPTCHA. This is the system created long ago by Google to block out spam created by automated scripts. Still don’t know what we’re talking about? It’s that thing at the end of an account sign-up page that asks you to copy some impossible-to-read text into a box in order to make sure that you are actually a human and not a bot created by some spammer. While this system may have seemed smart at its creation, nowadays it just doesn’t hold up. In fact, CAPTCHAs creator, Google, recently showed off a system they created that could get past the CAPTCHA system 99.8 percent of the time. Today, Google has finally decided to do something about this.

Google made a substantial announcement this morning, they introduced a new API for websites to use that is designed to replace the old CAPTCHA system. This new system is called No CAPTCHA reCAPTCHA and it is supposedly much better and simpler than the old CAPTCHA system. The way this new system works will be to pre-screen each new user’s behavior and then, if the system decides you are a human you simply have to check a box, but if it can not decide if you are a human you will be forced to copy scrambled text into a box. If you are on a mobile device and the system decides you are not a human, you will be given a new way to prove that you are, an example of this is that you will be shown an image of a cat and asked to select which images matches that one. This new image recognition test is designed to be much more mobile friendly than trying to decipher tiny little scrambled up letter on your smartphone display.

If you are wondering what this “pre-screening” entails that we mentioned above, it consists of some pretty clever stuff. Engineers at Google have said that this pre-screening will look at things like how long the user spent on the page and IP addresses. This new No CAPTCHA reCAPTHCA system has already been employed by some big names, Snapchat, WordPress, and Humble Bundle all already use the system for new users to their services. Unfortunately, this new system will more than likely not be adopted by every website or service, some will just flat out refuse to upgrade to the new service. Hopefully, the bigger services and sites will see the added protection from spam that this new service offers and adopt it in the near future.

With this new system we see that Google has made a pretty big realization, the best way to tell if a user is human is not by asking them a series of questions, but instead by paying attention to how they act during sign-up. We are very glad to see this long overdue update to the long broken CAPTCHA system and we hope that more sites start adopting the new system as soon as possible.

Unofficial Lollipop Builds For The Motorola Droid 4 and Droid RAZR Now Available

Android 5.0 (Lollipop) is everywhere these days. Hardly a day passes when there is not some form of Lollipop news. These are usually either reports that Lollipop is en-route to a specific device, is delayed to a specific device or simply some of the new and neat features we have heard about. Lollipop is already big business and everyone wants it. It seems Google are moving fast with the operating system too. Although, Lollipop only landed a month ago, yesterday we saw the first post-release update starting to land. At the moment, this is only for the Nexus, 7, 9 and 10 but other Nexuses are likely to follow soon enough. So while most of the world (and their dog) waits for Lollipop, some users are already getting their Lollipop updated again. Ahhh, the fairness of Android.

Well, if you are not one of those who have already got a full and official release of Android Lolipop pushed to your device (which is most of us) then you no doubt are probably waiting for the unofficial builds to hit. We have already seen a number of these landing and although great for users, can prove to be problematic at times. Unofficial builds can be buggy and have issues you are unlikely to get with official builds. But that said, that is the fun of unofficial builds. The latest on this front, is that it now seems two more devices have now got the unofficial treatment. If you haven’t guessed by the title, the latest additions are the Motorola Droid 4 and the Motorola Droid RAZR.

Both the devices come from the same CyanogenMod (CM) 12 build which was originally created for the Droid 4 by XDA member stargo. However, the Droid RAZR was then further made available thanks to XDA member ktmique. Although the two stem from the same original source it is important to remember they are device-specific. As such you need to flash and install the correct files. If you are interested in the Droid 4 CM12 build then click here. If you are of the RAZR persuasion then click here for your files. As with unofficial builds, there are things working and also things not working. From what we know so far, what is working includes calls, data, WiFi, tethering and GPS. Things noted as not (currently) working include the camera, recovery rebooting and some other bits. For full information on either of these ports, click the already mentioned device links or click the source link below. Happy flashing Droid 4 and RAZR owners. Don’t forget the golden rule. Backup, backup, BACKUP.

Carl Zeiss VR One On Sale Today But Not As Compatible As First Thought

2014 has been a great year for tech. Besides the now norm smartphone and tablet markets, we have also been introduced to the newly dubbed wearables and ‘other’ smart markets. Not to mention we have interesting things already expected in 2015 with Android Auto and Android TV. That said, one of the interesting ‘other’ markets is an extension of wearables, albeit not a very comfortable wearing experience. These are the Virtual Reality (VR) units. So far this year, all the talk of VR has been (generally speaking) in Samsung’s direction. The South Korean giant have unveiled their Samsung Gear VR and so far the jury seems to be well and truly out on whether we like it or not. The unit seems interesting and there seems to be enough demand for VR unit. However, in Samsung’s case the price seems a little high and not to mention the device is currently only compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Such limited compatibility is never a good thing or warmly welcomed.

Well, that opened the market to other manufacturers to find their selling points for similar VR units. One of those that we have heard a decent amount of information on is Carl Zeiss’s VR unit, dubbed the VR One. Besides the various tech aspects of the VR One, the two big selling points were its $99 price tag (half of that of the expected Gear VR) and its more open nature compatibility with smartphones. Unlike the Gear VR, the VR One is expected to be far more compatible with a number of devices. Well, it now seems the VR One might be far less accommodating to smartphones than we previously thought. Although the intention is to make the VR One more varied in its compatibility, it seems at launch this will not be the case. In fact, it is believed the only compatible android device with the VR One (at the moment) will be the Samsung Galaxy S5.

The reason for this limited compatibility is the VR One’s use of ‘custom trays’. It is these trays that make the unit compatible with devices and by swapping out trays the unit will be able to house different sized devices. However, at present the only trays available for the VR One are for the S5 and the iPhone 6. It is expected that Carl Zeiss will be increasing the range of trays available. However, again this seems as though it might be slow-moving and its hard to say when any particular device will gain support. If you do want to grab one of the Carl Zeiss VR units though, then the unit is now available to order. Shipping is due to commence on December 8th (Monday). So if you know anyone with an S5 and still need to get them a present, then here you go. For all other devices, there is always Google Cardboard.

Ting Offering To Pay $150 Towards Your Carrier’s ETF Through Jan. 5th

Wireless MVNO Ting is offering you up to $150 towards your current carrier’s ETF if you will cancel with them and switch to Ting. The offer is good through January 5^th. Ting will give you 50% o your current early termination fee, up to $150. That means if you have an ETF of $100, Ting will give you $50. If you’re current ETF is $300, then they will give you the full $150. Not a bad deal if you’re looking to get out from under your current wireless provider and move on to something new.

Ting is an MVNO, or Mobile Virtual Network Operator. They operate on Sprint’s network. That may work for you, it may not, but it’s something to think about if you’re considering making a switch. Lots of MVNOs partner with Sprint, but Sprint’s network isn’t the greatest or the fastest in some parts of the country. Ting offers packages for as little as $3, so you could save a lot of money if you play your cards right. You could use Hangouts over Wi-Fi to do most of your messaging and calling and really save on voice minutes and data usage.

Of course, you’ll have to have a Sprint compatible phone to use with Ting. They sell them on their website, and you do have the option of bringing your own device if you want, as long as it will work with Sprint’s network. You can even grab a Nexus 6 from the Play Store and it should work for you. Again, weigh your options and figure out what will work for you before making a big move. This offer from Ting is a decent one and it may work out well for you. You can check the Sprint coverage in your area on their coverage website.

What do you think? Is Ting an option that you would look at when you are switching wireless carriers? Drop us a line in the comments and let us know.

Bluetooth 4.2 Specification Released By the Special Interest Group

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group, or SIG, have announced an updated Bluetooth specification, up to version 4.2. The new update includes several new features, including enhanced privacy and better data speeds. One of the improvements allows for Bluetooth over IPv6, that is, an IP address that incorporate six groups of numbers rather than the original IP address (now renamed to IPv4). The update to IPv6 won’t in itself allow a device to have a direct connection to the Internet, this is still showing as a “coming soon” technology, but it’s going to open up new possibilities for Bluetooth sensors and other accessories. Mark Powell, Executive Director of the Bluetooth SIG, said: “Bluetooth 4.2 is all about continuing to make Bluetooth Smart the best solution to connect all the technology in your life – from personal sensors to your connected home. In addition to the improvements to the specification itself, a new profile known as IPSP enables IPv6 for Bluetooth, opening entirely new doors for device connectivity. Bluetooth Smart is the only technology that can scale with the market, provide developers the flexibility to innovate, and be the foundation for the IoT.”

The privacy improvements are designed to make it harder to track you from your Bluetooth devices; now a Bluetooth Smart location tracker may only be followed by the owner or a trusted group and will consume less energy. The SIG have incorporated FIPS-compliant encryption to enable secure communication between Bluetooth-enabled devices and home automation products. Better privacy is going to be increasingly important as Bluetooth beacons become standard in public spaces and users must give permission to allow other devices to track the location. Bluetooth beacons are designed to enhance location tracking in buildings and are popping up in shopping centres and similar locations; the technology allows the venue to accurately position your location and could be used for aisle-level advertising pushed to your device, if the user allowed it. That fills me with horror! Bluetooth 4.2 is also claimed to be up to two and a half times quicker than current standards; the advantage of higher speed Bluetooth connections is that it means our wireless sensors can offload their data to our smartphone in a shorter space of time, which means that the connection and connected devices spend more time at idle, which saves power.

Bluetooth has been around for a very long time, but it’s only in the last four years that I’ve been able to leave the technology running all of the time thanks to Bluetooth 4 Low Energy, without it destroying my battery. Lower battery consumption from our Bluetooth accessories has helped the wearable market for fitness bands and similar. Not such a bad rap for a technology named after a particularly bloodthirsty Viking!

Google Pushes “Device Assist” App into the Play Store for Android One, GPE and Nexus Devices

We’ve seen Motorola and Amazon put out some interesting Support apps lately. Amazon’s Mayday is actually really cool as you get tech support right there on your tablet or phone. But with Motorola and Moto Care you get an app that has a ton of tutorials, as well as a way to contact Motorola if you need more assistance. For a while, Google has had issues with support and it looks like they are going to be fixing that, or at least attempting too.

Today, Google posted a new app into the Play Store. It’s called Device Assist. And it’s available for all the Nexus devices running Lollipop, as well as Google Play Edition’s running Lollipop and Android One devices running Lollipop. Basically it’s a full fledged support app. It has a section for detected issues, so you can see what’s going on with your phone and fix it, if need be. There’s also a tips section that gives you tips to get the most out of your device, and to save battery life. Which is always great. Although most of us Android fans probably already know all this stuff. But it’ll be great for those newer Android users out there.

This app will also send diagnostics to Google, which I’m sure you can turn off if you get paranoid about that kind of stuff. It’s available in the Play Store now for those with a Nexus, Google Play Edition or Android One device running on Lollipop. And yes, it is material design, as you’d expect from a new Google app for Lollipop devices.

It’s great to see Google getting support done right on these devices, because that is one of their struggling areas right now. So if you’ve got an Android One, Nexus or GPE device with Lollipop on board, let us know how you are liking this app in the comments below.

Sony: Android 5.0 Lollipop Is Now Rolling Out To Xperia Z Ultra GPE Devices

Android Lollipop is making its way to Nexus and GPE devices as we speak. We reported yesterday that certain Sony Xperia Z Ultra GPE users started getting the update recently even though Sony (nor Google) didn’t confirm the rollout then, well, the official confirmation has arrived. Android Lollipop is now rolling out to Sony’s Z Ultra behemoth, though keep in mind this is a Google Play Edition of the phone we’re talking about, if you own a regular Xperia Z Ultra with Sony’s skin on it, no Lollipop for you at the moment. Xperia Z Ultra GPE users will, of course, get the vanilla Lollipop experience on their devices. Android Lollipop brings a ton of improvements and a complete overhaul of the UI, so keep that in mind. It would take a long time to go through all of its features, but you’ll get a ton more animations as part of Google’s “Material Design” skeuomorphic approach. “Project Volta” is also here, this is what Google calls all the optimizations they made in order to reduce battery consumption of the OS and thus provide you with a better battery life overall. That’s just a small piece of what Google introduced, if you’d like to know more, visit our Android 5.0 Lollipop page.

The OTA update is about 379MB and you’ll need at least 500MB of free space on your phone, so keep that in mind. That being said, go ahead and check your Xperia Z Ultra GPE for updates if you haven’t already or just wait for the phone to notify you the update is available, although very few of tech-savvy people do that I believe. Xperia Z Ultra is Sony’s huge phablet, we’re talking about a monster device sporting a 6.4-inch 1080p (1920 x 1080) IPS LCD display along with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage which is expandable via MicroSD card up to 64GB. Xperia Z Ultra is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800 quad-core chip clocked at 2.2GHz which comes with an Adreno 330 GPU for graphics processing. 8-megapixel rear-facing camera is also a part of this package and a 2-megapixel camera is located on the front side of this phablet. The device ships with a 3050mAh non-removable battery and, once again, it’s huge. Let us know if you got the update already, it might take some time until you receive it.

YotaPhone Gets Dismantled, Let’s Take A Look Inside

I’m used to seeing a ton of weird devices and interesting concepts considering the line of work I’m in, YotaPhone was definitely such a devices back when it launched. The main thing that differentiates this handset from the rest is the two display arrangement it sports. This handset has a 4.3-inch 720p (1280 x 720) LCD display on the front and a 4.3-inch 640 x 640 E-Ink display on the back of the handset. This might sound and look odd, but it can be extremely useful considering the E-Ink display and the way it operates. The main idea is for you to use the E-Ink display to glance at stuff, read and so on in order to save battery and you’re able to save tons of juice by doing so. YotaPhone also packs 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage while it is powered by a dual-core processor from Qualcomm which is clocked at 1.7GHz. 13-megapixel camera can be found at the back of this handset while there’s a 1-megapixel camera available on the front side of this handset. This thing packs a 1800mAh non-removable battery and 4G LTE connectivity.

YotaPhone doesn’t look all that great either, but its successor might change that. According to the latest reports, a new generation YotaPhone device might launch soon and sport a more appealing design overall, if you’d like to find out more, visit this link. Anyhow, we were able to get our hands on the dismantling of the YotaPhone (not the unreleased one, of course, but the one available at the moment). If you take a look at the gallery down below, you’ll notice a ton of images, courtesy of eWiseTech, who actually dismantled this thing. There were no surprises on the inside, this is a Russian phone made in China, and the teardown actually confirmed that fact. eWiseTech portal also said that the device was relatively simple to tear apart and thus should be fairly simple to repair on the inside. If you’re interested to see what exactly is on the inside of this beast, take a look at the image in a gallery down below, there are a bunch of them. Do you think the YotaPhone could end up being a successful product?
