Google’s most advanced voice search has arrived on iOS

Check out this website I found at feedproxy.google.com I've been using this app for the past few days and have to say that I am fairly impressed with it. The speed at which it recognizes your voice and the words is pretty incredible. It really does a fantastic job of returning exactly what you are looking for.

Something that Apple wasn't able to accomplish...

Even Microsoft is offering, for the first time ever, their Windows 8 operating system via download. ...

Zombiewood iOS Review

Zombiewood iOS Review Posted 11/02/2012 at 7:00am | by Brian Albert 0 Comments       In a world crawling with undead, it seems the opportunist is alive and well. A bespectacled Los Angeles film director wants to make zombie films, and he needs a murderous star. Enter your broad-shouldered, square-jawed avatar. I call him “Born 2 Kill,” because the phrase is proudly emblazoned across the front of...
