Some of you may have noticed that the Friday Feed went AWOL last week. We sincerely apologize for this lapse. When the Friday Feed took this job the responsibilities were quite clearly laid out, including showing up for work every Friday, no matter how much Turducken it consumed the night before, or how debilitating of a raging cranberry-sauce hangover it was nursing.
We are truly sorry, and the Feed promises that this will never happen again…
And, so, the first post-Thanksgiving Holiday edition:
- Shoogle – Shoogle is a novel, intuitive interface for sensing data within a mobile device, such as presence and properties of text messages or remaining resources. It is based around active exploration: devices are shaken, revealing the contents rattling around “inside”.
