Instagram has rolled out another update to its 3 day old Android app and this time it will be “the most amazing Android app you’ll ever see.” Joking aside, I’m all for quick updates, new features, and bug fixes. This latest update brings support to WiFi handsets, and for all you weirdos out there taking photos with your gigantic tablets, you too now have official Instagram support. Other features and fixes include:


Apparently no one told IMDb about the whole Google Play switcheroo because they’re still pointing users to the Android Market. I don’t blame ’em, it’s hard to let go.

Imangi Studios and their hit game Temple Run managed to grab over 5 million downloads in just over a week on Android — a number I’m betting many Temple Run users still haven’t scored.

I mean Robert Scoble is wearing glasses too, should he be chastised for improving the way he sees the world just because he’s at a benefit (that they both are undoubtedly heavy contributors to)? Moving on.


HTC is extremely proud of the new EVO 4G LTE and wants to give consumers an inside look at what went into designing this soft touch, hairline finished, kickstand beast of a phone. It’s a neat look into the design process and shows that they don’t just slap on any old chassis and call it a day. There’s been a lot of complaints about the glossy top half on the back of the device as most users seem to prefer the soft touch, but we’ll have to wait until we actually have it in our hands before we can make an official judgement.
