The very name sounds like a rocket launching. And Garth Brooks did launch in a big way this week, boosting his new single, "More Than a Memory," straight out of the box to No. 1 with no stops along the way. This is the first time that's ever happened in country music history, says Joel Whitburn's Records Research, the company that tallies all the Billboard charts.
Compounding the joy is the fact that Brooks' song happens to be promoted by the Big Machine label (but released by Brooks' own Pearl Records). Folks at Big Machine must be dancing in the streets since another star on its impressive roster, Taylor Swift, continues to occupy the No. 1 spot on the country albums chart -- a position her eponymous CD has held for the seventh consecutive week.
New to the albums chart are Lyle Lovett's It's Not Big It's Large (coming in at No. 2), Sarah John's Big Love in a Small Town (No. 31), Cledus T. Judd's Boogity Boogity: A Tribute to the Comic Genius of Ray Stevens (No. 47), the various artists compilation, Life's a Dance (No. 50), Charlie Daniels' 16 Biggest Hits (No. 68), Ronnie Milsap's 16 Biggest Hits (No. 69) and Crystal Gayle's Greatest Hits (No. 74).
Entering the songs chart -- besides Brooks -- are Jake Owen's "Somethin' About a Woman" at No. 54 and Rascal Flatts' "Revolution," which returns at No. 57.
The remaining Top 5 songs are Rodney Atkins' "These Are My People" (last week's No. 1, which now drops back to No. 2), Rascal Flatts' "Take Me There" (No. 3), Reba McEntire and Kelly Clarkson's "Because of You" (No. 4) and Brooks & Dunn's "Proud of the House We Built" (No. 5).
Kenny Chesney's "Don't Blink" edges from No. 16, its entry point last week, to No. 14. Keith Urban's "Everybody" climbs from No. 37 to No. 28. Swift's "Our Song" skips from No. 49 to No. 42, and Little Big Town's "I'm With the Band" advances from No. 60 to No. 53.
Rounding out the Top 5 albums are Tim McGraw's Let It Go (No. 3), Brad Paisley's 5th Gear (No. 4) and Carrie Underwood's Some Hearts (No. 5). Joe Nichols' Real Things, last week's big album splash, drops from No. 2 to No. 10.
Maybe the summer doldrums are over.

BOOGIE BALLMER: Steve Dirty Dances at tearful Microsoft leaving do
A tearful Steve Ballmer bid official farewell to thousands of Microsofties at a stadium bash with a booming sound track. Shy and (literally) retiring CEO Ballmer hosted the software giant's annual staff meeting at Seattle's KeyArena yesterday, attended by 13,000 employees. This is the last mass gathering for Ballmer and his …
Lets see.......
SUPERTRAMP "Dreamer"
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a laugh it is!"
You know, - Well you know you had it comin' to you,
Now there's not a lot I can do
Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer;
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no!
I said "Far out, - What a day, a year, a laugh it is!"
You know, - Well you know you had it comin' to you,
Now there's not a lot I can do.
Well work it out someday
If I could see something
You can see anything you want boy
If I could be someone-
You can be anyone, celebrate boy.
If I could do something-
Well you can do something,
If I could do anything-
Well can you do something out of this world?
Take a dream on a Sunday
Take a life, take a holiday
Take a lie, take a dreamer
dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along...
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, you're nothing but a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need.
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street,
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed.
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight,
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.
And after a while, you can work on points for style.
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,
So that when they turn their backs on you,
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder.
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you
get older.
And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south,
Hide your head in the sand,
Just another sad old man,
All alone and dying of cancer.
And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown.
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone.
And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone,
Dragged down by the stone.
I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused.
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used.
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise.
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend.
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everything's done under the sun,
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.
Love Supertramp, by the way.
---> For the big man, obviously.
Oh it's late here in Aus but...
...surely you cant go past this little ditty from TISM
warning: seriously NSFW
So long Ballmer. You were tremendous fun. [raises imaginary beer]
I'd have actually paid money to see that leaving performance. What a mind-trip that would have been.
Steve Ballmer is a rich buffoon. Perhaps not the first CEO or "celebrity" to be an oxymoron but definitely one of the most animated and hated. Goodbye Steve and fuck off!

@AC 18:52 - "You'd think that if you had a massive personal fortune that you could afford to take bigger risks."
But, if you have to support 95% of the desktops worldwide, you are probably limited in the risks you can realistically take. Apple clearly doesn't have that same problem, as they basically support about 1% of the hardware in existence (or less).
Windows is even required to run well on Apple's hardware, but try getting Apple to support any 3rd party stuff - no chance.
Not sure how Ballmer as CEO made anyone into a millionaire. It may have made him into a billionaire, but the rest of the stockholders got this: http://www.businessinsider.com/ballmer-era-stock-price-2013-8
They've turned off Balmer
Lets's hope they don't turn him on again

"Break Your Heart" by Barenaked Ladies
and I've got what I want,
and that's rid of you
A song for Steve?
Surely it's got to be Wrecking Ball(mer) (apologies to Neil Young...)
Want You Gone – Jonathan Coulton
Well here we are again,
It's always such a pleasure,
Remember when you tried to kill me twice?
Oh, how we laughed and laughed,
Except I wasn't laughing,
Under the circumstances I've been shockingly nice.
You want your freedom take it,
That's what I'm counting on,
I used to want you dead but,
Now I only want you gone.
She was a lot like you,
(Maybe not quite as heavy),
Now little Caroline is in here too.
One day they woke me up,
So I could live forever,
It's such a shame the same will never happen to you.
You've got your short, sad life left,
That's what I'm counting on,
I'll let you get right to it,
Now I only want you gone.
Goodbye, my only friend,
Oh, did you think I meant you?
That would be funny if it weren't so sad,
Well you have been replaced,
I don't need anyone now,
When I delete you maybe I'll stop feeling so bad.
Go make some new disaster,
That's what I'm counting on,
You're someone else's problem,
Now I only want you gone,
Now I only want you gone,
Now I only want you gone.
"We love you, Steve!"
"Employees were shaking hands with Ballmer and screaming "we love you" through the routine, we're so reliably informed."
Where did I last read something like this? Hmmm. Not sure whether it was Xinhua or the North Korean news agency.
Re: "We love you, Steve!"
How the hell did they get that number of employees to go? Were they paid?

Re: "We love you, Steve!"
Yes, certain parts of this article read like some twisted paragraphs from nineteen eighty four.
Re: "We love you, Steve!"
My sister-in-law works there and is bizarrely proud of a Steve Ballmer signed Windows 7 box. It's a mass produced stamped signature, but by god it's got Steve-o's name on it. They go voluntarily.
Re: "We love you, Steve!"
quite the Reality Distortion Field...
Re: "We love you, Steve!"
The Ballmer Strategy
Ballmer dismissed Apple as being "fashionable", Amazon for being "cheap", and Google for "knowing more"
... which kinda implies that Ballmer's strategy at Microsoft was being "unfashionable, expensive and knowing less". How's that been working out then? How much written off on the Surface? A billion dollars was it?
Damn right that Ballmer buggers off and takes his suicidal strategy with him. Maybe Microsoft can now try building some great products at a price that people are willing to pay.
Re: The Ballmer Strategy
Damn, you beat me to it. I think his comments show exactly why Microsoft has been so unsuccessful in just about everything they've tried to do to expand their business since Ballmer took over. He doesn't understand how the things he criticizes about the competition are exactly those things that customers of those companies value!
Nominations for Microsoft CEO
I vote Peter Capaldi
It's good to hear that there is a major US corporation that does not believe in drug tests.
Re: wow
None of them do for the CEO ...
I wonder...
... if all the "Surface tension" was enough to stop the champagne spilling over...
Re: I wonder...
The Surface tablets were probably used as trays to serve the champagne.
Makes you wonder why they bothered with the COO position if they are going to look elsewhere, presumably they will start at the local crazy house?
Wait... WHAT??
"… we will change the world again".
I don't remember when copying other people's work using other people's technology became "changing the world".
Surfed the wave, yes.
Hit anyone who tried to follow in the face... definitely.
Kill off or buy out anyone why actually tried to change the world, definitely.
Microsoft is the most successful company in history at selling other people's ideas as their own.
And they're still trying to do it today.
Microsoft is the most successful company in history at selling other people's ideas as their own.
I think Apple might have something to say about that....
Microsoft is the most successful company in history at selling other people's ideas as their own.
And they sold the ideas of others as a bullying monopolist that the US govt did not want to harness. But, that was the Ballmer mentality that prevailed all these years. It has pissed off millions, including OEMs, large customers, and other business partners. So they had a good run while it's lasted. What next? Steve is intellectually incapable of answering the question, so billg and two others are tasked with the job of finding and hiring the new visionary to lead Microsoft on to bigger and better. Good luck with that. It will be an interesting business soap opera to watch.
and good riddance, dont let the door smack you in the arse on the way out...
Things can only get better by D:Ream?

Nowhere Man by Lennon and McCartney
He's a real nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody.
Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, please listen,
You don't know what you're missing,
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command.
He's as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere Man, don't worry,
Take your time, don't hurry,
Leave it all 'till somebody else
Lends you a hand.
He's a real Nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
For nobody.

How indie rock got its groove back: Four D.C. scenesters listen to ZZ Top's Eliminator nonstop for a week, realize its might but recognize its limits (narrow field of focus, reluctance to test goal-oriented MTV viewers' patience, songs exclusively about body parts or carburetors) and set about retooling the formula for muso geeks born too late to truly appreciate Little Feat. At least that's what Apollo Stars, the latest from Trans Am/Make-Up/Royal Trux offshoot Golden, suggests when "Feel This Flow" barrels out of the gate like the world's best excuse to reconsider the moustache. The disc is a spectacular rejection of irony, hinged solely on the correct assumption that you get access to better riffs if you play it straight. And play they do: Guitarist Alex Minoff peels off one melted-butter solo after another, singer Ian Eagleson pretends the Afghan Whigs stayed awesome, drummer Jon Theodore keeps both eyes on the road. They even slip in sly world-pop flavors and a slow, pretty one that never erupts every time you think it will. "I fly on the Apollo from juke joints to the disco," Eagleson sings at one point in a voice enamored of both. Isn't this cooler than more designer-jeans ennui?

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) - The teenage girl who authorities say was brutally attacked by another teen at a South Florida middle school has been released from a rehabilitation center and is at home.
Josie Lou Ratley was released on May 25 from the center where she has been undergoing physical and occupational therapy.
Her family's attorney Sean Domnick said in a statement that she is making slow progress and has a long way to go. She will continue with outpatient rehabilitation.
ifteen year-old Wayne Treacy is charged as an adult with first-degree attempted murder for the March 17 attack. He has pleaded not guilty and has apologized through his lawyer for the beating.
Ratley suffered brain damage in the assault. A 13-year-old girl is charged as a juvenile with being an accomplice for allegedly helping Treacy find Ratley.

This webinar was an opportunity to review the results and progress of renewable energy bills in states that SEIA is active or monitoring. These states include Massachusetts, California, Arizona, New Jersey, Colorado, New York, Texas, and Nevada. While many of these states legislative sessions had concluded, and final results of bills are available, some were still in session – and status updates were provided.

SRECs have been critical to driving solar development on the East Coast. However, as market conditions become increasingly complex, what is the best strategy for financing projects in these SREC markets?
RE: D.P.U. No. 12‐120
Investigation by the Department of Public Utilities on its own motion regarding the service quality guidelines established in Service Quality Standards for Electric Distribution Companies
and Local Gas Distribution Companies, D.T.E. 99‐84 (2001) and amended in Service Quality Standards for Electric Distribution Companies and Local Gas Distribution Companies, D.T.E. 04‐
116 (2007).
In 2012, the U.S. solar industry installed 3.3 GW of solar capacity, growing 76% over 2011's total. What happened in your state? Find out!
SEIA Calls on Massachusetts to Increase Solar Carve-Out
The Patrick Administration today announced a process to further accelerate solar energy deployment in Massachusetts. This news comes as Massachusetts is within a year to 18 months of reaching the 400 megawatts (MW) target of the existing solar carve-out.
Establishing a more aggressive solar carve-out program would bring Massachusetts up to the level of other states in the northeast that are supporting local solar industries. New Jersey has a 4 gigawatt (GW) goal for solar energy deployment, while Maryland has a 1.3 GW goal.
In Massachusetts, developers have faced a number of issues surrounding tax valuations of solar projects. In order to help provide a bit of clarity on this issue, SEIA has sought to collect the payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOT) agreements of successfully completed projects. It is our hope that these documents will be a starting point for the Department of Energy Resources to compile a complete database that will provide local assessors the information and guidance needed to properly valuate solar arrays in their towns. In developing this list, we have limited ourselves to projects that have an executed agreement (PILOT or PPA) and a pulled building permit. The average agreement is approximately $6,500 per MW DC per year, normalized to a 20 year agreement.
Exploring How Municipal Utilities Fund Solar Energy Projects
This webinar will provide information on Concord Light, the municipal electric utility serving Concord, Massachusetts, and their solar photovoltaic (PV) rebate program.
Comments by SEIA on the Distributed Generation Interconnection Working Group Report and Draft Tariff Language
The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) hereby responds to the notice issued on November 26, 2012, by the Department of Public Utilities (DPU), requesting comments no later than December 7, 2012, on the Distributed Generation (DG) Interconnection Working Group Report submitted to the DPU on September 14, 2012, and related proposed tariff language to implement Report recommendations filed with the DPU on October 31, 2012.
Massachusetts Keeps Solar Power Shining
Today Governor Deval Patrick signed into law the 2012 Energy Act. Among other provisions, this comprehensive energy bill raises the cap on an important solar program called "net metering." Most solar electric installations are connected to the grid and feed excess power produced to other utility customers; net metering rules gives customers credit for extra power they generate.

Megan. 21. This is what makes me think, laugh, or feel.
(Source: api-erinw, via liquidmeth)
When you are hurting, there will always be people who find a way to make it about themselves. If you break your wrist, they'll complain about a sprained ankle. If you are sad, they're sadder. If you're asking for help, they'll demand more attention.
Here is a fact: I was in a hospital and sobbing into my palms when a woman approached me and asked why I was making so much noise and I managed to stutter that my best friend shot himself in the head and now he was 100% certified dead and she made this little grunt and had the nerve to tell me, "Well now you made me sad."
When you get angry, there are going to be people who ask you to shut up and sit down, and they're not going to do it nicely. Theirs are the faces that turn bright red before you have a chance to finish your sentence. They won't ask you to explain yourself. They'll be mad that you're mad and that will be their whole reason alone.
Here is a fact: I was in an alleyway a few weeks ago, stroking my friend's back as she vomited fourteen tequila shots. "I hate men," she wheezed as her sides heaved, "I hate all of them."
I braided her hair so it wouldn't get caught in the mess. I didn't correct her and reply that she does in fact love her father and her little brother too, that there are strangers she has yet to meet that will be better for her than any of her shitty ex-boyfriends, that half of our group of friends identifies as male - I could hear each of her bruises in those words and I didn't ask her to soften the blow when she was trying to buff them out of her skin. She doesn't hate all men. She never did.
She had the misfortune to be overheard by a drunk guy in an ill-fitting suit, a boy trying to look like a man and leering down my dress as he stormed towards us. "Fuck you, lady," he said, "Fuck you. Not all men are evil, you know."
"Thanks," I told him dryly, pulling on her hand, trying to get her inside again, "See you."
He followed us. Wouldn't stop shouting. How dare she get mad. How dare she was hurting. "It's hard for me too!" he yowled after us. "With fuckers like you, how's a guy supposed to live?"
Here's a fact: my father is Cuban and my genes repeat his. Once one of my teachers looked at my heritage and said, "Your skin doesn't look dirty enough to be a Mexican."
When my cheeks grew pink and my tongue dried up, someone else in the classroom stood up. "You can't say that," he said, "That's fucking racist. We could report you for that."
Our teacher turned vicious. "You wanna fail this class? Go ahead. Report me. I was joking. It's my word against yours. I hate kids like you. You think you've got all the power - you don't. I do."
Later that kid and I became close friends and we skipped class to do anything else and the two of us were lying on our backs staring up at the sky and as we talked about that moment, he sighed, "I hate white people." His girlfriend is white and so is his mom. I reached out until my fingers were resting in the warmth of his palm.
He spoke up each time our teacher said something shitty. He failed the class. I stayed silent. I got the A but I wish that I didn't.
Here is a fact: I think gender is a social construct and people that want to tell others what defines it just haven't done their homework. I personally happen to have the luck of the draw and am the same gender as my sex, which basically just means society leaves me alone about this one particular thing.
Until I met Alex, who said he hated cis people. My throat closed up. I'm not good at confrontation. I avoided him because I didn't want to bother him.
One day I was going on a walk and I found him behind our school, bleeding out of the side of his mouth. The only thing I really know is how to patch people up. He winced when the antibacterial cream went across his new wounds. "I hate cis people," he said weakly.
I looked at him and pushed his hair back from his head. "I understand why you do."
Here is a fact: anger is a secondary emotion. Anger is how people stop themselves from hurting. Anger is how people stop themselves by empathizing.
It is easy for the drunken man to be mad at my friend. If he says "Hey, fuck you, lady," he doesn't have to worry about what's so wrong about men.
It's easy for my teacher to fail the kids who speak up. If we're just smart-ass students, it's not his fault we fuck up.
It's easy for me to hate Alex for labeling me as dangerous when I've never hurt someone a day in my life. But I'm safe in my skin and his life is at risk just by going to the bathroom. I understand why he says things like that. I finally do.
There's a difference between the spread of hatred and the frustration of people who are hurting. The thing is, when you are broken, there will always be someone who says "I'm worse, stop talking." There will always be people who are mad you're trying to steal the attention. There will always be people who get mad at the same time as you do - they hate being challenged. It changes the rules.
I say I hate all Mondays but my sister was born on one and she's the greatest joy I have ever known. I say I hate brown but it's really just the word and how it turns your mouth down - the colour is my hair and my eyes and my favorite sweater. I say I hate pineapple but I still try it again every Easter, just to see if it stings less this year. It's okay to be sad when you hear someone generalize a group you're in. But instead of assuming they're evil and filled with hatred, maybe ask them why they think that way - who knows, you might just end up with a new and kind friend."
By telling the oppressed that their anger is unjustified, you allow the oppression to continue. I know it's hard to stay calm. I know it's scary. But you're coming from the safe place and they aren't. Just please … Try to be more understanding. /// r.i.d (via inkskinned)

The Cowboys are in good shape at both tackle positions with Pro Bowl left tackle Tyron Smith and right tackle Doug Free. Dallas drafted center Travis Frederick with its first selection in the '13 NFL draft and also inserted second-year guard Ronald Leary into the starting lineup at left guard for the first time last season.
The result was the franchise's first 1,000-yard rusher since 2006 in starting tailback DeMarco Murray.
Nonetheless, Dallas still needs to address the right tackle spot.
Veteran guard Brian Waters was signed to his second stint with the Cowboys on September 3. A move that looked pretty good early on ended prematurely when Waters, having just started playing again following an abbreviated retirement, was placed on injured reserve at midseason.
Waters will turn 37 in just over a month from now and it's a bit hard to imagine that he'll play football in 2014. Even if he does, he's certainly not a long-term solution to what looks like the only remaining position on the offensive line to be addressed for the long haul.
This is where the name Cyril Richardson of Baylor becomes quite interesting.
If you've been keeping up with current events regarding football in Waco, Texas, you're already aware that the Bears have become quite relevant in college football. The lion's share of that relevancy is due to an offense that has been rather explosive over the last few seasons. Names like quarterback Robert Griffin III and wide receivers Terrance Williams and Kendall Wright certainly highlight a growing list of early draft picks to enter the NFL over the last couple of annual player-selection meetings.
But along with those sexy offensive skill position players comes great blocking, and Richardson was arguably the best and most versatile at Baylor beginning in 2011.
Richardson is a physical monster standing 6'5" and weighing in at a staggering 335 pounds. He's not quite Leonard Davis in weight or Hall of Fame lineman Larry Allen in power, but he's comparable to both of those former Dallas linemen that helped to produce much better rushing attacks than the crews we've seen over the last several seasons.
Size and power win in the NFL, period. There's also a higher premium placed on youth than ever before in the professional ranks.
Richardson serves as a great fit in all of those categories.
Plug in a player like this on an offensive line that already possesses one Pro Bowl left tackle and possibly another at center in the coming seasons and the Cowboys could accomplish some things they simply haven't in recent years—like a playoff victory.
After a miserable season under defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin, nobody would fault Jones for drafting a defensive lineman or pass-rushing specialist in the first round next May. This is probably ideal for several reasons, provided that the player lives up to expectations.
According to WalterFootball.com, Richardson is projected to go somewhere between the first or second round, and this is probably true. Things could certainly change for Richardson depending on how he grades out during the NFL Scouting Combine in late February, but I wouldn't expect him to drop very much, if at all.
The idea that Richardson might be had in the second round would still allow the Cowboys to go after a pass-rusher like Kony Ealy of Missouri or a defensive tackle like Ra'Shede Hageman of Minnesota.
Either way, quarterback Tony Romo, moving forward, must have a more dominant running game at his disposal. His back situation is well documented and about the only way to ensure that his playing days aren't near the end is to draft a massive mauler, like Richardson, to reduce the hits that he's taking while dropping back to throw too many times per contest.
Finally, it should give Dallas fans goose-bumps when considering the increased likelihood that the Cowboys might actually have a single 1,000-yard rusher in two consecutive seasons for the first time since a guy named Emmitt Smith lined up in the backfield.

Cook is an operations genius, apparently. But he doesn't have the charisma and vision and panache to broker the deals that SJ did for Apple.
I imagine things getting a little tougher on this front for Apple, but otherwise, they have plenty of momentum and a solid culture to run with far into the future.
I hope the best for SJ and was saddened by the news. What a legend.
You know that's what they said about Bob Iger when he took over Disney after Michael Eisner. But the decisions he made and deals he brokered (e.g. Pixar) revitalized Disney. Here's one article of many.
Tim Cook has already been brokering great but inconspicuous deals managing Apple's supply chain. He may not have the big-stage charisma that SJ has but I guarantee you, you do not get to be a successful negotiator (and leader, by the way) if you don't have charisma. I suspect TC's charisma is on a more personal one-to-one level and the chatter I hear on the net seems to confirm that.

Taking a look back at seven days of news across the Android world, this week's Android Circuit focuses on the Google I/O Developer Conference… after a look at the Android adventures of Nokia and Microsoft. Meanwhile at the Moscone Center and I/O we have the new 'L' release of Android; the new Android experience; Silver, Nexus devices and the Android One program; with Android Wear, Android Auto, and Android Fit closing out this week's column. Android Circuit is here to remind you of a few of the very many things that have happened around Android over the last seven days.
Nokia Finally Turns To Android In American And Finland
Before we get to the news from Google I/O, it's worth pointing out what Nokia has been up to in the Android space this week. Firstly, the Nokians now at Microsoft (after Redmond's acquisition of the Devices and Services division) went ahead and launched the Nokia X2, making it the first Android device to be launched by Microsoft. Based on the Android Open Source Project code, and using Microsoft's cloud services in place of Google's, the X2 is budget device that Microsoft will be using to bring as many new users to their cloud services as possible, rather than demote Windows Phone. Forbes' Gordon Kelly disagrees, and questions why Microsoft is investing in a distraction.
The Nokia Technologies department stayed with the Finnish company, and has also got involved in the Android action this week with the release of the Nokia Z Launcher. By learning your favourite apps and actions, the launcher hopes to improve the utility of your home screen.
Google Reveal Android's 'L' Release And New User Interface Design
While it is still a developer preview, the next version of Android, called 'L', was demonstrated on stage at the I/O Developer Conference.
The biggest visible focus in 'L' is the new UI paradigm. Focusing on giving depth to windows and dialog boxes in Android devices, if this can be applied consistently over every app in the Android world, on smartphone, phablet, tablet, watch, in-car tools, Android TVs, and anywhere else the OS pops up, then Google is on to a winner. It is all about consistency though. If you have one app that is not using it correctly, it's going to stick out like a sore thumb. The same goes for third-party apps. Will the Facebook and Twitter apps switch to the new style? Linked In? Candy Crush Saga?
Forbes contributor Ian Morris has been taking a closer look at 'L' on the Nexus 5:
Overall, at least visually, the new Android style is good. Obviously, there's a long way to go before it's ready to launch, and some things have yet to be adapted to the new look, but what has – the core OS – is mostly an improvement. Apart from those cursed navigation buttons. For the most part, Android and iOS are about even. I really like the way Apple has built hubs for various things like games, home automation and health. Google has lagged a little in this. It moved late into a game hub, but it's very good to use.
It's All About Experiences
Farhad Manjoo sat down with Google CEO Larry Page, and Head of Android Sundar Pichai for the NY Times' Bits Blog to talk about the direction that I/O laid out for the Android platform. He's made an edited transcript available of the conversation (alongside the main article). The area of Google services being delivered over through Android was touched on:
We've been talking about a multiscreen world for a long time. I think you see it culminating in something that's a great experience across lots of different kinds of devices, from the watch to the TV to the laptop to the tablet to the phone.
But I think there's much more to do. I think it's exciting to see developers — if we're reasonably clever and thoughtful about what we do, we can get experiences that make sense to users and are reasonably easy for developers to implement.
The Nexus Will Arrive, Just Don't Ask (Yet) About Silver
What we didn't see during the keynote was any new smartphone or tablet hardware. While there has been some online discussion about the Nexus devices being phased out, Dan Rowinski, writing for ReadWrite, has Google's David Burke (head of engineering for Android) confirming that the principle of releasing a new Nexus device with every iteration of Android is still in place. In which case we should expect a new Nexus device during Q4 this year when Android 'L' is released to the public.
As for the idea of Android Silver (a variant of Android that closely mirror's Google's vision, but installed on the leading hardware of the day), nothing was mentioned. We'll need to wait a little longer for that program to become official.
The Next Billion Targeted With Android One
The closest we got to a new smartphone on stage was Google's reference design program. Titled 'Android One', it will provide manufacturers with an off-the-shelf design for low-end Android handsets, and also provide hardware and software support from Google to create the best possible experience for the end users.
If Google can find enough manufacturers willing to hand over a bit of control to reduce the design, build, and support costs, they are going to capture a lot of new users. As it stands many low-end Android devices are powered by the Android Open Source Project, and do not automatically tie in with Google's own cloud services. I've looked at this in more detail here on Forbes.
It's All About What You Wear
Following on from the announcement of Android Wear earlier this year, Google not only took a significant amount of time to demonstrate their vision of an Android powered smartwatch on stage, but the staff also handed every delegate at I/O either a Samsung Gear Live or the LG G watch, and a voucher for the Moto 360 smartwatch when it arrives later in the year (the latter is the first Android Wear device to use the circular watch face design).
Acting as a mix of 'super notifier' and an extension of the Cards you find in Google Now, the Android Wear OS acts as a second screen for your smartphone, relying on voice inputs ("OK Google!") and swipes on the screen. It will proactively put information on your display that Google's algorithms think you need to see, as well as passing over notifications for you to dismiss or interact with.
There are lots of hands on experiences with the watches to choose for, I would start with Brad Molen's at Engadget and go from there.
If The Car Fits, Android Will Play Nicely With It
Android was also expanded into the car, with Android Auto. The cards from Google Now can be exposed through a car mounted display that Google hopes manufacturers will allow Android to interface with. Throw in voice control on top of the service and you have an extension of the Android experience to an appropriate environment. Just as the wrist experience is optimised, so is the in-car experience… at least if you buy a new car that's Android ready.
The first developer SDK for AndroidAuto was also announced from the keynote stage.
We've Got Your Heartbeat, Let Us Show You
As revealed exclusively here on Forbes, Google also announced Android Fit at I/O. Collating health data from a number of devices and allowing the data to be aggregated into the cloud, this health hub is still rather bare bones, perhaps waiting for more developer input. Compared to Samsung and Apple, Google were in a position to name the most partners to their health project, including Nike+, Withings, Runkeeper Basis, Adidas and Mio.
'Android Circuit' will round-up the news from the Android world every weekend here on Forbes. Don't forget to follow me so you don't miss any coverage in the future, and of course the sister column in Apple Loop!
