How Much Tech Does Your Business Really Need?

January 18, 2017 by Lucilla

Mobility concept

Businesses need tech these days, even if it’s just to get them online. People are using the internet for everything. They research what they want and need online, they talk about it online with their friends (and even people they don’t know), and they even do a good deal of their shopping online.

Because your customers are online, using tech to check out your company, it makes sense that you need to be there as well, and you need to be using some of that same tech. It’s not just about having computers these days. You need to be in constant contact, nearly 24/7 because that’s what people want. [Read more…]

5 Tips To Create a Better Mobile Experience For Users

September 5, 2015 by Caren

As most people have their favorite communication gadgets (smartphones and tablets) with them almost all the time, as a website designer, you should be paying attention to what your website experience presents to these mobile users.

It’s still a relatively new phenomenon that many people do most of their browsing on their gadgets, but it’s still something that you should plan for in the design stage. To account for this, follow these five tips – if you can, have the experts do the heavy design work, be sure to test your site with every possible device, create a survey to get user feedback when possible, keep the audio presence in mind, and balance out your subtle and screaming elements.

Have the Experts Create a Custom Design

Depending on your industry, get custom work done when possible. For example, because drug rehab traffic is a very competitive playground for marketers, if you really want to shine, especially on mobile, have a company custom design your drug rehab site from the ground up, with your specific vision in mind. Not only will it be an amazing design on mobile devices, it will already have the SEO built into it. [Read more…]

The Next Big Thing: Flip Phones?

December 30, 2014 by Caren

Though the current generation may not remember, it was less than ten years ago that the fancy new phones on the market looked very different from the sleek smartphones of today: they were all flip phones. These days almost everyone carries an iPhone or Android phone with a large touch screen and high-quality camera. Smartphones have practically driven all other phones out of the market and the previous generation of phones have been left to the old and technologically un-savvy. But even as smartphones reach a zenith of popularity, there’s been a shift away from the phones of the future and towards an unlikely replacement: flip phones.

Why The Flip Phone?

Many people would rather lose a limb than give up their smartphone. That said, there are a number of qualities that once made flip phones charming that still hold some appeal. Flip phones are thin, lightweight, and very durable. Hanging up on someone on an iPhone just doesn’t have the same oomph as it does on an old Motorola Razr: there’s something to be said for the tactile satisfaction of slapping the phone closed. In addition, technology has given people a way to stay connected 24/7, but it’s also made staying connected all but a necessity, and people are starting to look for ways to break free of that cycle. Flip phones’ technological limitations—most of them can’t access Wi-Fi or browse the internet, and very few modern-day apps are supported on flip phones—could provide some relief. [Read more…]

Why Use a Tablet for Your Restaurant Business

May 22, 2014 by Caren

Food chains and restaurants today are taking advantage of mobile technology as a way to promote efficient service to customers. The tablet is one of the most widely used mobile devices in business these days and the number of establishments utilizing it is growing.

Business owners are on the right track in recognizing the benefit of the popular tablet such as the iPad. If you own a small restaurant or are in the process of opening one, it would be a good idea to include this mobile technology in your operations.

Display Menus

Compared to the smart phone, the tablet is a better choice primarily because of its wider screen. With a bigger display, people are better able to see images and read text or descriptions of dishes being offered. [Read more…]

Sony S1 and S2 Tablets Specs Leaked to CNET

August 5, 2011 by Noemi

Sony S1

I may be in love with the iPad, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t appreciate other real headturners, and Sony S1 and S2 tablets are just that.

So far, what we know about the Sony S1 and S2 tablets are still quite sketchy, but just a look at the prototypes makes me want to try it out. The S1’s wedge design gives it extra oomph, while the S2’s “closable” dual screen design is just like no other tablet in the market. It isn’t their pretty hardware that’s the talk of the town these days though, but the fact that CNET was able to get inside information on the actual specs of the tablets. ((Source))

Prior to the leak, information about their OS have already been reported, with both models said to be built using the latest Android version. Though the Honeycomb wasn’t explicitly mentioned, it’s just logical for Sony to use the Honeycomb, it being the tablet version of Android. Aside from the OS though, we now know more about the S1’s and S2’s hardware.

According to CNET’s sources the S1 tablet will be available in the following four versions: 2 Wi-Fi only versions at 16GB and 32GB, and 2 Wi-Fi and 3G versions also with 16GB and 32GB memory space. All S1 models will also come with a built-in SD memory card reader, so that you won’t have to worry much about running out of memory. Other specs and features that were mentioned include a 9.4-inch display that will be using TruBlack and Bravia technologies, a vague estimation of the S1’s battery life (“comparable to the iPad 2”), and two important tablet accessories – a dock and a Bluetooth keyboard.

Less information was gleaned about the S2 model, but what is known is that there won’t be any Wi-Fi only versions released for this model. However, the Wi-Fi and 3G versions will also be available in 16GB and 32GB. There was no mention of the battery life or accessories that will come with the S2 tablet.

Both tablets are said to be due for launching either late August or early September, just in time for the IFA 2011 in Berlin. Sony will be releasing the real names of both tablets then, and will probably be announcing price points as well.
