Here are some of the most interesting digital marketing stats we've seen this week.
Stats include how Australian's use QR codes, the top brands on LinkedIn, the popularity of Wi-Fi instead over 3G, connected TV, and mobile use in France.
For more digital marketing stats, check out our Internet Statistics Compendium.
Two-thirds of Australians don't know what QR codes are
- A new survey by Econsultancy and Toluna has revealed that 62% of Australian consumers don't know what a QR codes are, or how to use them.
- Just over half (51%) of the 18-34 age demographic can recognise QR codes.
- Proportionately, 44% of males know what a QR codes are and how to use them, compared to 35% of females.
- Across all consumers who knew what QR codes are, nearly half (51%) had used one in the last three months.
Two seconds to playback
- According to a study conducted by computer science professor Ramesh Sitaraman, user expectations are extremely high for online video.
- In looking at some 23m video views generated by 6.7m unique users, Sitaraman found that users, not surprisingly, have no qualms about abandoning a video if it takes too long to play.
- Just how long is too long? By five seconds, 20% of users will leave for short-form video; purveyors of long-form video have a few seconds of wiggle room.
- All told, each second of delay after the first two seconds increases the abandonment rate by nearly 6%.
Affiliate Window's mobile traffic
- Affiliate Window's latest mobile and m-commerce figures show that 10.7% of all sales were through mobile devices (including tablets) – up from 9.98% in September.
- Furthermore, 13.25% of traffic came through mobile devices - up from 12.79% in September. This falls to 7.76% if tablet traffic is stripped out - up from 7.48% in September.
- Mobile traffic is converting at 3.2% - up from 2.60% in September.
IBM and Coca-Cola are top brands on LinkedIn
- IBM, Coca-Cola and Hewlett-Packard are the top brands on LinkedIn in terms of driving engagement, according to a study by DigiDay.
- IBM generated 1.8m interactions on the social network last year and has accrued 779,000 fans.
- Coca-Cola claimed second place in the rankings, again securing 1.8m comments, likes and shares from its 129,000 followers.
Red Bull is top for social video
- The first goviral Social Video Equity Report shows that Red Bull tops the list for the 100 most powerful brands in branded content in 2012.
- The drink brands beat technology giants Google (2nd) and Samsung (5th), with Apple and Microsoft both failing to make the top ten, coming in at numbers 11 and 37 respectively.
- The top 10 was Red Bull, Google, Disney, Nike, Samsung, Old Spice, Prada, Coca-Cola, Nintendo and Adidas.
Wi-Fi delivers over three-quarters of all UK smartphone data
- UK Android smartphone owners transfer more than three-quarters (78%) of their internet content using Wi-Fi rather than 3G, according to data from Nielsen.
- Wi-Fi usage increases each hour after 5pm, building to a peak between 11pm and midnight, when 90% of data transferred is via Wi-Fi.
- Conversely, 3G data transfer tends to peak just before the working day starts, again at lunchtime, and finally during the early evening commute when users cannot rely so much on a Wi-Fi connection.
More than half of Brits have connected TV sets to the internet?
- Over half (55%) of people in Britain have connected their TV sets to the internet, according to a new study from YouGov.
- The study found that more than one in ten (11%) Brits intend to purchase a Smart TV in the next year and that the optimal price for a 32 inch HD Smart TV – based on the average amount this group is willing to pay – is £440.
- The optimal price for a 42 inch version is £550. According to YouGov projections, sales of Smart TVs over the next year could equate to nearly £2.54bn.
PayPal and eBay predict m-commerce boom in Australia
- A new report from eBay and PayPal has predicted that m-commerce sales will reach A$5.6bn in Australia this year due to the rapid proliferation of smartphones and tablets.
- This is a massive growth from the total of just $155m in 2010.
- Based on a poll of 3,200 people, the study forecast that 64% of Australians would own a smartphone by the end of 2012, compared to 51% in 2011. These totals hit 39% and 18% respectively for tablets.
Majority of consumers are aware of online tracking
- A new survey by TRUSTe has found that 86% of respondents in the Netherlands were aware of internet browser cookies compared with 81% in Great Britain, 78% in Germany and 59% in France.
- The top 50 French websites are dropping nearly twice as many third party cookies (434) as Dutch websites (237).
- 71% of French respondents were very concerned about their privacy online compared with 69% in Great Britain, 62% in Germany and 48% in the Netherlands.
- The study included over 4,000 consumers (conducted online via Ipsos MORI's iOmnibus survey in France, Germany, Great Britain and the Netherlands) and 200 top websites.
Vive le mobile revolution
- More than four in ten consumers now access the mobile internet in France, with growth driven by women and older users, according to a study by Médiamétrie.
- It found that 22.3m people went online via a mobile browser or app in Q3 2012, equivalent to a penetration rate of 41.2%.
- Some 23.8m consumers, or 46.6% of the population, now own a smartphone, up from 17m in Q3 2011.
- The market share of Apple's iPhone has declined from 26.6% to 21% during this period, while Android's market share increased from 33.2% to 45.1%.

i had restylane under the eyes. one side there is a pillow, the other, a ridge, causing more of a undereye circle than before.. first injection was 4 weeks ago and follow up about 12 days ago. will massage help at this point? i hate it, and i don't want an enzyme injection.
Does Massage Help Speed Up Restylane Removal
Doctor Answers 12
Web reference: https://pacificcenterplasticsurgery.com/procedures/injectables/perlane-restylane/
Not really.
Massage is used regularly to help "swelling" dissipate (it is successful to varying degrees). But what you have is not (primarily) swelling; it's the actual product that was injected.
I'm not sure why you don't want the "enzyme" but I think that this is by far the best and most efficient way to help correct this situation.
I hope that this helps, and good luck,
Dr. E

Restylane can be dispersed with firm, skilled massage performed by an expert who has lots of experience dealing with Restylane injections. An experienced dermatologist or plastic surgeon who does lots of Restylane injections would know what to do.

The hyaluronidase is really the only thing that will remove the Restylane. You might bruise the delicate lower eyelid skin if you massage to vigorously and IMHO massage won't help. You can certainly just wait until the Restylane dissolves which should be within 9 months, or so.
Web reference: http://www.drfpalmer.com
The easiest and fastest way to remove unwanted Restylane, Juvederm or other HA products is to have the Vitrase enzyme injection. You will literally see it melt away almost immediately. Massage and other techniques will have little if any effect.
Good Luck.
Web reference: http://www.ShaferPlasticSurgery.com
Massage is not going to remove Restylane. Hyaluronidase is perfect for this kind of a problem. It's safe, easy to perform and the results are instantaneous. If you are unhappy I would go this route. If you don't want hyaluronidase eventually the Restlyane will dissolve on it's own.
I can't comment on your situation without seeing photos, but I have had good results in massaging Restylane to smooth it out. However, if your case is to extreme for this, you will likely benefit from hyaluronidase injection. I have had great results injecting this enzyme, and I don't think you should reconsider your reluctance to have a hyaluronidase injection.
Web reference: http://www.mccrackenmd.com
Massaging will push the Restylane from one place to another but will not help break it up. If you wait long enough, the Restylane will break up by itself. Otherwise, the only option to break up Restylane (and other hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm and Perlane) is to inject Hyaluronidase in the area.
Dr. Peter A Aldea
Massaging the area of Restylane injections will only minimally help to smooth out the area. However, it will give you something to do while you are waiting for things to get better. Hyaluronidase is the only way to speed up the process. There seems to be numerous questions on RealSelf about problems with injections in the tear troughs. I do not believe that experienced injectors have problems with treating this area. Always ask about the experience of the injecting physician and make sure they have all of the "tools" to use, such as all of the various facial fillers (Sculptra, Radiesse, Perlane, Restylane, and Juvederm) that are approved for use in the United States. The effectiveness of your treatment depends on your physician's ability to visualize the desired changes and to select and skillfully administer the best treatments alone or in combination. Since every face is different, the experience and technique of your physician injector is the most critical part to your achieving a beautiful, natural result. Always ask to see before and after pictures of patients they have personally injected. If possible, look for someone who is on the medical education faculty for one of the facial fillers. If they have been selected to train other physicians how to treat the aging face they are likely to be good, experienced injectors.
Web reference: http://www.dorsetstreetdermatology.com/cosmetic-dermatology/restylane/
I personally wil not treat someone with fillers for the tear trough or under eye hollow who is not willing to be adjusted after the fact with the enzyme, hyaluronidase. It is the ability to adjust this product after the fact that makes it feasible to reliably treat this delicate area. I find that about 10% of patients who have this treatment benefit from some type of an adjustment. WIthin about a week of the initial service, the adjustment might be possible with direct manipulation (i.e. pressing on the area of fullness). However, some need to be injected with enzyme to make the necessary adjustment. Why can't the injector put the right amount of volume in the first place? The answer is that part of the treatment effect is the amount of water the body hold with the service. The exact amount of this water can't be controlled. Also the quality of the lower eyelid skin and in particular how thin this skin is a big factor in how things settle after a treatment.
Message will be completely ineffective for what you need. I encourage you to have your treatment adjusted with the enzyme by a physician you trust.

8 Simple Steps To Giving "Great Face"
Take it from Harvey Helms, our Cyber Main Gay, it is possible to look fresh and gorgeous every day.
-Harvey Helms
Okay, so you're in front of your bathroom mirror brushing your teeth. Being the multi-tasker you are, while brushing, you're also going through your bathroom drawers that are loaded with tons of skincare and makeup, including about 150 lipsticks you received during a million "Gift with Purchase" promotions and that you've never worn. You're riffling through the drawers, pushing aside year-old mascaras, dried-up lip glosses and some things that are just not recognizable. I go through this women with everyday. You think something new will make you younger, brighter, smoother … and nothing in your bathroom drawers seems to be up to the job. Or you're just bored and need a reason to shop. I understand.
I've "done" about 100,000 makeovers on women in my beauty career. I also have a gazillion clients. You can throw in a few Cross Dressers and Drag Queens too! I almost know every product the beauty industry currently sells promising the gift of youth or all-out glamour to snare a significant other. Unfortunately, I also know the yummy products they've discontinued. Now by saying that, I didn't mean to bring up the memory of your all-time favorite lipstick or moisturizer that those witches discontinued! How dare they! Don't they know that this could ruin our lives! No fear, my precious darlings. After years of seeing it all, and trying it all, I'm giving you the fast track to giving "Great Face."
This is not the all-out glam attack for special events like weddings. This is a quick, tried-and-true process that makes getting ready in the morning stress free.
Most of the following products can be had with one-stop shopping at my favorite beauty shrine, Sephora. They have a Beauty Insiders program that's like an airline frequent flier deal. You get points with every purchase that adds up to free goodies! Now I'm not telling you to buy these because I'm affiliated with any cosmetic company or retail store. I receive no compensation. I've used these fabulous elixirs and passed them along to my clients. They do what they say. Period. It shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes to give "Great Face" every day! For you beauty junkies who love make up and skincare, you may consider adding these to your routine.
My 8 steps are revealed on the next page!

One of the most original and influential artists of his generation, Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960 – 1988) produced deceptively unsophisticated-looking works that belied a complex and unique talent. Born in Brooklyn of Haitian and Puerto Rican descent, Basquiat first gained notoriety with graffiti artwork. He catapulted to fame with paintings that incorporated a fusion of words, symbols, stick figures, animals, and historical and cultural references. Befriended by Andy Warhol, Basquiat collaborated with the renowned Pop Artist on 100 artworks. Despite a career tragically cut short by a heroin overdose, Basquiat introduced the unique African-American and Latino experience to the elite art world.

Since the 1950s, Afrikan countries have waged wars for national liberation which forced the imperial powers of

Nkrumah, like Marcus Garvey before him, proposed formal Pan-Afrikanism as the solution: the unification of all countries on the Afrikan continent into a federal republic in command of the greatest supply of natural resources on the planet.
Of course, any attempt to command such resources and thus rescue Afrika from the continuing exploitation and devastation of foreign powers had to have been met with maximum retaliation.
And so Western destabilisation intensified: assassination of Afrikan leaders, most notably the White House-commissioned murder of Prime Minister Patrice Lumumba of
But the drive for Afrikan political unity has never died. Indeed, as the Organisation of African Unity gave way to the African Union in 2002, the drive for continental unification increased.
To discuss that drive tonight is one of the most widely-regarded and widely-published scholars on Afrikan issues, Professor Molefi Kete Asante, the founder of Afrocentricity.
Afrocentricity is an Afrikan-centered scholarship and world-view that employs research for political liberation through the academic resuscitation of smothered history.

Cars, which are the most popular form of individual transportation in the U.S., come in all shapes, sizes, and price ranges. Consumers choose cars based on the vehicle's intended purpose, whether it be basic family transportation or high performance fun.
Cars require regular maintenance. These maintenance items can be found in the owners manual which comes with every vehicle. It is up to the owner to read and understand what maintenance is required and at what intervals. Typically a maintenance interval is defined by mileage, the amount of miles the vehicle has been driven, or time, usually expressed in months. Cars can be fitted with vehicle tracking systems that enable owners to monitor their vehicles at all times.
Car owners desiring to do their own maintenance work can find much help online. There are manuals available with detailed diagrams, and there are car repair videos which show these procedures so people can make a better decision as to whether they will have the skill and ability to attempt the work.
The ability to find information about a car has become much easier online. You can find news about the auto industry by reading some of the top car blogs.

As if the thought of adapting Fifty Shades Of Grey into a motion picture isn't exhilerating enough for the millions of women who swooned over the "mommy porn" literary sensation, novelist/screenwriter Bret Easton Ellis tweeted yesterday that former porn star James Deen is in the running to take the lead role of Christian Grey.
"Just got inside information that James Deen is actually in the running to play Christian in 'Fifty Shades of Grey' with EL James support," he tweeted, later adding, "Movie will DEFINITELY be written by a woman and the budget will be below 15m. Ana will be played by an unknown."
It seems as though the production is keeping Ellis in the loop, despite the fact that it rejected him as a potential writer earlier this month. Ellis is currently working with Deen on Paul Schrader's forthcoming "contemporary LA noir" The Canyons, fulfilling the role of screenwriter.
Who do you think should play the role of kinky Mr. Grey? Let us know in the comments below!

Carr Valley Cheese
Carr Valley Cheese
There is good reason that the name Sid Cook is synonymous with
Carr Valley Cheese
. He is a fourth-generation cheesemaker and his family has owned Carr Valley for over a century. Sid got his cheesemaking license when he was all of 16 years old and he holds the distinction of Master Cheesemaker along with a group of fewer than 20 cheesemakers in the state of Wisconsin. Sid describes his relationship with cheese as a kid perfectly when he said, "You opened up the door on the side of the kitchen and there was the vat." The first cheese plant that his father operated was in a valley called Carr Valley, the name Sid still uses today. Sid worked with his father for years before taking over the business in the mid 70's. He and his brother made Wisconsin-style cheddar in that plant for 10 years. Eventually in 1991, he purchased another cheesemaking facility with a layout that would allow for more flexibility and the development of more styles of cheese. Carr Valley produces more than 65 varieties of cheese today. They use milk from all three major ruminants (cow, sheep, and goat) and all milk is supplied from family farms within a radius of less than 50 miles of each cheese plant. None of the cow dairies that sell milk to Carr Valley are milking more than 70 cows.

Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRKB): Current price $97.20

The successful bidder purchased NYSE Euronext late in December for $8.2 billion after about two months of negotiations.

Health Care
Access to health care is a critical issue for El Paso, the state, and the nation. El Paso suffers from a severe shortage of doctors and other health care professionals, a lack of medical infrastructure, and a high uninsured population.
José will work to expand the Texas Tech University Medical School into a Health Sciences Center with new schools of nursing, dentistry, and pharmacy; promote the growth of the Medical Center of the Americas, and support the medical community on health care regulatory reform and other issues that impact access to health care. [Health Science Community Briefing Part I: Biomedicine and ED]
In the 82nd Legislature, José authored the following legislation:
•Employment: The bill allows the El Paso County Hospital District to directly employ physicians and dentists, with the goal of decreasing the region's health care shortage. [Senate Bill 860*]
•Dental school: Requires the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board to study the feasibility of establishing a dental school in El Paso; currently, El Paso County has 28 dentists per 100,000 residents, falling far short of the state average of 45 per 100,000. [SB 1020]
•Medical licensing: Allows international medical graduates to apply for and receive a medical license after completing two full years of residency training instead of three years.** [SB 860]
•Social work licensing: Allows an individual who holds a Master's or Baccalaureate degree from a social work program in candidacy for accreditation to be eligible to take the social work licensure exam. This will help to ensure that social work degree holders can sit for the exam and enter the workforce as licensed social workers if they prove competency through the licensure exam process. [House Bill 1797]

PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Jim Thome took the stage at the City Club of Cleveland on Oct. 25, and spoke in generalities about staying in the game.
On Friday, he got a little more specific.
Despite being picked up by the Indians in August, reuniting the record-setting designated hitter with a team and city that adored him, Thome agreed to a one-year contract with the Phillies, according to a source familiar with the negotiations.
"I'll keep playing," Thome said last month. "I just need teams to call me. I can't go play in the backyard by myself. I don't know the demand for a 41-year-old DH, but my passion is I want to continue to play."
The Phillies, yet another team he's spent time with over his 21 seasons, granted him that wish for $1.25 million. He will take a physical on Saturday, and if all goes well, he will bring his 604 career home runs to Citizens Bank Park next spring.
Philadelphia, eliminated in the division series by the St. Louis Cardinals, can certainly use his power from the left side, though where — and if — he'll play in the field, is a big question. Thome, a Phillie from 2003-05, has not played defensively since 2007, and might be a little rusty at first base, should he be called on to play there as Ryan Howard recovers from surgery on his left Achilles.
While certainly interested in remaining an Indian, Thome set the stage for an exit in the way he answered questions at the City Club two weeks ago.
"In a year or two, this team can do some very special things," Thome said of the Indians, sounding like a player who had played his last game for them. "They have put the groundwork in, done things the right way."
Thome will reunite with Phillies manager Charlie Manuel. The two formed a bond from their days in Cleveland together, and almost did it sooner — as in four months ago — before the Indians sneaked in and acquired him from the Minnesota Twins with the Phillies lurking.
Thome is a lifetime .277 hitter with 1,674 RBIs.
The Phillies cruised to the National League East title this season, only to be bounced by St. Louis in five games.

Man, I really want to Root and ROM my freaking Xoom but I'm waiting till after the 4G/SD Card enabling update to do it cause, well, let's face it, I don't want to send it back in, just to get it sent back in the same, unmodified, condition because I have already Rooted and ROM'ed it. It's killing me because I know what it(Rooting and ROM'ing) can do for a device. For instance, I own an LG Ally, quite simply, the cheapest and most basic Android phone there is. After having an EnV2 for a little more than 2 years, the Ally was a free upgrade, and by free I mean they started tacking an additional $30 a month onto my bill. But it wasn't really what I expected from a "Smart Phone". In many ways the EnV2 was a better phone. No lag time between opening an app and it actually opening, and not having to wait forever for it to boot up. The music just played without having to navigate through an excruciatingly slow menu, etc...! I was about to give up on the whole "Android Smart Phone" idea until I found out about Rooting and custom ROM's. Then the whole game changed. I found myself with a much snappier, more reliable and, hell I'll say it, FAST phone! Since then I was hooked. When Motorola announced that they would be offering an Android based tablet I though "Hell yeah! I'm getting one on opening day", and did. So now here we are, a full month and another half into ownership, and, it's not that I'm not very impressed with the device, but I find myself wondering, "If attaining root access, flashing a custom recovery and installing a new ROM has done so much for a crappy phone like the Ally, I can only imagine how those procedures can transform a kick ass device like the Xoom". So I guess I started this thread just to, what I like to think of as "Story Bitch", but oh well. If you have a good story that culminates to a bitching rant, post it up here. Hey, I'll read it cause what the hell, it's not like I've got anything better to do while I wait for Google/Verizon/Motorola to figure out how and when they want to give me 4G and a working SD Card slot.
Well we won't get the sweet ROMs till google releases the source for honeycomb, but mines rooted and so far allowed me to overclock and gain sd support. Although mine is the wifi only version so I do understand the concern with sending it in for the 4G update... Even without the custom roms I'm still 100% satisfied at this point. I get maybe 1 or 2 force closes a week, and terrific battery life. It has completely replaced my laptop.
I don't know why Google is being so "Steve Jobs" about the Honeycomb files, it seems stupid to limit access since that's the best way to mod devices and to create apps specifically tailored for the Honeycomb version. As for replacing a laptop, hell yeah! I haven't even turned my laptop on since I got the Xoom! I know it's "in the works" to get those of us with the 3G version the 4G and SD card support update but damnit I'm impatient as hell!! I gave those bastards my loyalty, my support, my MONEY, so where's the love?
Why? Because, I think, they are concerned about companies and individuals trying to dump copies of Honeycomb on Smartphones... and other devices that Honeycomb simply wasn't designed to run on. My guess is that Honeycomb simply wasn't ready for prime time and they want to limit damage control until they've fixed some bugs in the OS...
That's the most intelligent assumption to date! It still doesn't explain what the hold up is and why I still don't have SD card support though. Don't get me wrong, I love my Xoom, I find new uses or interesting functionality for it every day it seems but I can't help feeling like we're getting boned somehow. Oh well, in another few months it will be as bad ass as they promised from the start, or at least I hope so, and none of this will even matter but, until then............ COME ON ALREADY!!!!!!!!
Honeycomb does not work correctly on any device unless there is a few gigs of internal flash. Devices that use a "rom" chip for app storage and a microsd for apps2sd will not work correctly with Honeycomb.
Dropped by the local VZW shop to have my XOOM looked at and the tech guy asked if I had sent mine into for the 4G upgrade. Already underway or about to?
You will still be able to upgrade your device even if you rooted the device. Here is an article that was released a day or so ago about it. Rooted Xoom Users Eligible for 4G LTE Update
Since we don't know when the powers that be release the update, go ahead and root it. With ClockWorkMod, you can back up your rooted ROM on your SD card. Remove the SD card and revert back to stock before sending it to Motorola. When you get it back, simply reroot and reinstall ClockWorkMod and restore your ROM. It really does take the pain out of waiting.
And here is some really bad press: Android tablets: Motorola XOOM returned, Honeycomb half baked at best | ZDNet
I loved how the author over-stated his experience at the bottom of the article when he wrote "a technologist with over two decades of experience integrating large heterogeneous multi-vendor computing environments in Fortune 500 companies."... Outside of the military, most large commercial businesses didn't building serious data networks until the mid 1990's. The first practical networks were products like Invisnet (developed by Invisible Software)... a Netbios based network that ran on telephone wire. In around 1993 Artisoft came out with Lantastic, a better Netbios based networking product. It wasn't till around 1995 when companies started connecting themselves to the Internet... Prior to the Internet we used to connect remote users to central systems with stat muxes. Oh what a joy that was...
Just read this report on Droid-Life: Details on DROID Bionic Delay, Launching at Same Time as 4G LTE on XOOM - Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog It claims no 4G upgrade until sometime this summer, does that mean no SD card upgrade until then either
Does Motorola not appreciate that the microsd not working is hurting sales and causing returns? There are now two equal level tablets out that cost less and have fully functioning microsd slots. Seems that Motorola are shooting themselves in the foot, more than once.
I think the other tablet manufacturers developed some work arounds for the issues in honeycomb keeping us from using expandable storage. We will see what sort of issues arise on these tablets when Google pushes the update to honeycomb enabling SD cards.
All I know is microsd works perfectly with the A500 and so does USB host (even powers and works with 1tb NTFS HDs with a patch). Not seeing how whatever Android does with Honeycomb will impact anything, since will be a similar solution (internal sd, external sd, etc). The reason is Honeycomb must have apps and data installed with the internal storage and any other storage is for media only. The fact is Motorola has had a broken feature on their device for months and other OEMs have it working. How hard is it for Moto to add the card path to their firmware? My guess is the 4g port and sd card update are the same update plan, so the card will not work until 4G is ready to work. This means folks that have wifi only versions are waiting and should not have to (along with losing sales). Motorola should have taken the effort to add the card path and release a patch. It will not impact the apps or OS, since it is for media only. Moto are simply screwing customers over by waiting on a one fix solution, rather than fixing something broken (out of box) now. Motorola seems out of touch, since the device is becoming overpriced to the competition, yet STILL has a broken feature that some consumers want. That said, the wifi on the Xoom seems much better than on the A500. I also prefer the Xoom's smaller size. The Transformer is even wider than the A500 (due to keyboard fit).
I'm a little confused though- if they're saying, in the article marctronixx posted, that they're still working on the problem, how do we have new tablets with working SD card slots?
If you are referring to the ASUS and Samsung Honeycomb tablets it's because the hardware manufacturer developed their own interim solution to make the SD card slot work...
Yes and both work very well with microsd (not seen the new Galaxy, but testers say it does) out of the box and so does the A500. Moto waiting for an Android Team solution when Android Team does NOT want it there in the first place seems counter-productive. Do folks not think it not working this long is a tad absurd? It is not like the function will be any different, since the mapping will be the same as the A500 and Transformer. I guess this thread answers my question I ask if the 3.1 update fixed the microsd. People making excuses for Motorola now seems too lenient at this point. You have paid for an advertised feature that STILL does not work. Seems insane, especially since sales have been impacted and returns caused by it.
This is fancy side-talk for "Honeycomb was intended to only have internal storage and no external". The fact is OEMs know better what customers want and pushed REAL hard for external storage and basically said "screw U Google", we will make our own. Motorola's near naive complacency in this is only screwing customers and sales. The A500 works fantastic with 32gb microsd, 64gb TDs, 500gb FAT HDs and 1tb NTFS HDs and powers them all using the tablet & battery power. I play 700mb PlayStation roms and movies with no issues.
Personally it's not that big of a deal to me at this time! I've got my entire music library sync'd to the internal memory on the Xoom and have several video's sync'd too. While I may not have 32 gig of MP3's to load on the Xoom, I've got several gig and they work just fine. Would I like to have the external SD card support? Abso-freaken-lutely! Is the lack of SD card support impacting me today? Nope!
man just root it i am we now know its gonna be even longer because we just got the 3.1 update and still no SD support so the odds that we get another update soon is i think slim to none
You know what's funny? Now that this OTG cable is so cool, I think I would prefer to get data from my USB stick. SD cards are smaller and more elegant but I am often saddled with machines that were made before we discovered the wheel but after we discovered fire (the have USB 2.0 ports but no SD/memory stick slots.) We still suffer the same problems unless we get root access.
i mean i have mine rooted and love the sd card and i dont have an OTG cable but i think i need to invest in one soon

I certainly try not to be.
I think at some level every single one of us is prejudice. There are things we all innately fear or are uncomfortable with. I don't know if its nature or nurture, but I don't believe any of us on this earth is so pure that we absolutely accept everyone as they are.
I do however feel that all of us can learn to accept everyone. I have come to realize, intellectually, that I personally don't give a shit about your sex life, your spiritual life, your personal life, whatever. I have no problem with you being you. I accept who you are.
I also don't care who you tell about it or if you flaunt it. I'm happy to take the responsibility to be your friend, your acquaintance or if I don't like you, what you do or how you do it for whatever reason, to completely ignore you.
That doesn't mean that I'm always completely sensitive to everyone I engage with. I have my own sense of humor. Things make me laugh that may or may not make you laugh. I'm the first to admit that sometimes my humor runs to the sophomoric. Like my high school buddy Todd, who I still refer to by his high school nickname, Boafy (don't even remember how he got that name) says, every guy laughs at a fart joke. Not every guy does. But I do. And I'm good with that. I hope I'm 95 and still laughing at dumbass jokes.
But sometimes what I laugh at isn't appreciated by others. It may even offend them if it comes out at the wrong time.
So why bring this up?
This past week I did an interview at a sports conference. It was a 1 on 1 sit down. During the conversation the topic of the Kisscam at sporting events came up . The interviewer mentioned it and commented "I like the Kiss Cam," In response to the interviewer comment, I said "That's because you and your boyfriend are always on it."
Totally sophomoric. I quickly realized that the comment wasn't appropriate, so I added "Or his girlfriend, this is gender-independent commentary."
I made a mistake in making the comment. I wasn't trying to be hurtful. It wasn't a comment on anyone's sexuality. It was just me trying to be funny. It wasn't. I quickly realized it and tried to fix it. I hoped at the time I didn't offend anyone.
This blog post is not about trying to defend what I said. I'm not trying to defend my sense of humor. I'm not trying to convince you I'm not a homophobe. I'm not trying to justify anything at all.
I guess what I am doing is admitting that at some level I am prejudiced and that I recognize that I am. There are a lot of things in my life that I need to improve at. This is one of them. Sometimes I make stupid throw away comments that I quickly realize are wrong. It doesn't happen often, but it happens. It was a mistake and I realized it. I learned from it.
I'm the last to be politically correct and the last thing I am trying to be here is politically correct. I honestly don't give a shit what you think about me. But I think being the person I want to be includes not blurting out throw away jokes about sexuality, race, ethnicity, size, disability or other things people have no say in about themselves. I'm the guy who still feels bad about punching Michael Cooper in the stomach in 6th grade purely because he was overweight, even though I made the point to apologize to him when I ran into him at a reunion years later.
Even if I don't care about you, it doesn't mean I'm ok with making you uncomfortable or upset with a comment that references anything that is out of your control. That is not the person I want to be. I'm happy to pick on you if you root for the wrong team. I'm happy to pick on you if you like doing The Wave. I'm happy to pick on you for a lot of reasons. Your sexuality should never be one of those reasons. I like who I am. I love my life. But that doesn't mean I won't always try to be a better version of me And yes, I feel better having written this blog post

Sarah Silverman, known for her brash talk and awesome things like wearing a $60 dress to the Emmy Awards, has debuted a new project — starring in the music video for band Psychic Friend's song "We Do Not Belong," which has debuted on her YouTube channel JASH.
In the video, Silverman plays a hospitalized woman who was apparently held captive in her basement for many years by her parents, who are arrested. She does not show a lot of cognitive function but is mesmerized by dance, which helps her start to heal.
"It was just the idea of this person connection to dance and having this bout of straight-up expression," Silverman tells USA Today. "The director, Dean Fleischer-Camp, was inspired by an amazing Nova documentary called Secret of the Wild Child. YouTube it — you won't be able to stop watching it. It's heartbreaking, inspiring, and heartbreaking again. I loved being a part of this collision of song and story."
What do you think of the video? It's definitely a departure from what Silverman normally does, but we really liked it.

Or, in other words, this new chipset should make for the perfect media centre (or Home Theater PC, if you're American).
Of course, there are other possible uses for the 780 platform. As a small, low power, low cost chipset with integrated graphics, it is perfect for all manner of business and home PCs. What's more, with the addition of hybrid graphics it offers the most powerful 3D graphics platform for the price. At least, so ATI claims. We'll find out if all this is true a bit later but first let's look in a bit more detail at what new features 780 brings to the table.
The 780 platform, or chipset, actually consists of two chips often generically referred to as the north bridge and south bridge. In the case of 780, the north bridge includes the integrated graphics, Hyper Transport link to the CPU, and PCI-Express controller and comes in two variants, the 780G that we're looking at today, and the 780V, which uses a slower version of the integrated graphics.
780G and 780V are the first integrated graphics cores to support Shader Model 4.0 (DirectX 10) so all the latest games should be playable on these platforms, assuming you turn the details down low enough. As AMD still maintains the ATI name for its graphics parts, the graphics cores themselves are to be known as ATI HD Radeon 3200 and 3100 for the 780G and 780V, respectively.
In terms of graphical power, the 780G is near identical to the old HD 2400 including as it does 40 stream processors. Although the 2400 was no great performer compared to other discrete graphics cards, having this level of graphical power on an integrated chip is unheard of and as such is not to be sniffed at.
Both cores now include the UVD and can offload MPEG-2, H.264 and VC-1 video at up to the full-HD resolution of 1080p. So no matter what sort of HD-video you throw at it, your system should be able to cope. The only problem being, you need to use specific software that supports the hardware acceleration, like Cyberlink PowerDVD, to take advantage of this. That said, there's currently no support at all for Blu-ray playback in Windows Media Center so you'll have to use separate software to play these discs anyway.

You might remember my first set of lights that I put on my dad's skates. Well those weren't bright enough and they were a lot of work because I didn't know how to make PCBs. In this i'ble I'll cover how to make your own custom PCBs in under an hour! Keep in mind, if you've never made a PCB before it isn't hard at all! This would be a good beginner project to get started with making PCBs. All it takes is a trip to an office supply store and to a radioshack! See, I never got around to making PCBs because I didn't want to have to go to the store and buy etchant and stuff, you know what I mean. Eventually I just made myself do it and it was the best electronic skill I learned for a while! So quite being lazy and go get some PCB material!
Below is the link to my first RGB skate-shoe lights, which doesn't require making a PCB.
I hope you enjoy this i'ble and please cast it a vote!

As he arrives with his family at the villa in the hills above Nice, Joe sees a body in the swimming pool. But the girl is very much alive. She is Kitty Finch: a self-proclaimed botanist with green-painted fingernails, walking naked out of the water and into their holiday. Why is she there? What does she want from them? And why does Joe's wife allow her to remain?

"Absorbing story"
Absorbing story with believable characters, dexterous inter-weaving of plot and the lives of the characters. I found the characters irritating, particularly the central figure of Kitty, the disturbed unwanted guest. The build-up to the suicide (although was there a suggestion of murder by Kitty?) of a central character provided tension and unexpected denouement. The moral might be 'don't trust strange young women', or 'how helpless we are as human beings', the latter referring to the failings of almost all the characters, even the apparently strong female war correspondent, although she was the most resourceful. The inclusion of a teenage daughter helped to build the plot elements, but ultimately the reliance on a happy-ever after ending for her was weak, although it did tend to resolve the sense of the negativity of life engendered in the characters and the plot. Did I read it on a bad day?
"unexpected pleasure"
What a lyrical and poetically written story. Vivid characters thrown together in what was almost an Agatha Christie setting - an isolated house in France with a very small cast of characters. And an unexpected ending which I had to play again. Highly recommended.
"Swimming Home"
This is the best of this years Booker short list outside of Hillary Mantel's historic victory. This novel starts rather pretentiously but finally wins the reader over with its wicked wit, icy cool characters and cinematic narrative. Stay with it - it's worth it!

SRK, Aamir, Abhishek make it to Forbes list
After the business titans like Ambanis and Mittals, it is the turn of the three young icons of Indian entertainment world – Shahrukh Khan , Aamir Khan and Abhishek Bachchan – to make it to a Forbes list.
The US publication, known for its rankings of wealthiest persons across the world, has named these Bollywood stars among ten celebrities adding star-power to mobile phones.
The two Khans and the junior Bachchan, son of Bollywood mega superstar Amitabh Bachchan , have been joined by two international sportstars Maria Sharapova and David Beckham, four singers Usher, Fergie, Rain and Andy Lau and race car driver Danica Patrick in the 'Ten Celebs and Their Cells' list published on the Forbes website.
"Once upon a time, perfume and designer jean makers were the ones who relied on celebrities to add a bit of star-dust glamour to their products. Add to that list, now, mobile phone makers," the report said.
While SRK endorses mobile phones made by Nokia, the world's biggest cellphone maker, Abhishek and Aamir are brand ambassadors for Motorola and Samsung phones respectively.
Among other celebrities, Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova endorses Sony Ericsson phones, while soccer star David Beckham is a brand ambassador for Motorola RAZR2 phone.
Forbes said the ten celebrities are "some of the big ones who want you to join their handheld club."
"As nearly everyone on the planet seems to have a cellphone, device makers must work harder to win new customers. Cool designs and low prices help, of course. But so do celebrities. That's led phone makers to recruit some A-listers from Usher to David Beckham to lend an ear– and a smile– to selling cellphones," it added.

Anesthesia |
Can anesthesia cause teeth to sensitive?12/02/2008 |
Since having surgery (9 days ago) my teeth have been becoming more and more sensitive. It has become painful to drink any liquid that is not room temp. Is this common?
I am assuming that your surgery had nothing to with your teeth. This is not something I have ever encountered or read about in relation to general anesthesia.

Vadim Vasilyev confirms the Ligue 1 club could never have sanctioned a bid for the attacker as they were negotiating with Atletico Madrid for Radamel Falcao
Ronaldo was linked with the big-spending Ligue 2 champions earlier this year, as well as Paris Saint-Germain and former club Manchester United, before committing his future to Real Madrid by penning a new record-breaking contract earlier this week.
Vasilyev has now confirmed he met with the 28-year-old earlier this year but has stressed a move to Parc des Princes was never on the cards - especially given the club were negotiating a €60 million deal for Radamel Falcao at the time.
"We met in the spring but we didn't talk [about a move] because he was a Real Madrid player and at that stage he was already in the stage of negotiating for a new contract, while we were working on signing Falcao," Vasilyev told L'Equipe.
"We had to be realistic, because we could not have bought Falcao and Cristiano. Of course we would have loved to have had them both but we had already spent a lot of money and in the future we will have to invest less money in the team. We can't carry on spending and spending - we're going to spend less money and focus on our academy, which is one of the best in France."
Vasilyev also denied that Falcao has a clause in his contract which would allow him to leave the club to join Real Madrid.
"There is no clause that allows him to leave after the first year. It wouldn't make any sense to build a project around a player and then let him leave after the first season," he said.
