Google Music Finally Goes Public [News]


After what seems like forever, Google Music is finally out of beta. The program has been invite-only for some time, but now it is available to everyone. One fear many users had was that Google would charge once the service went public, but it appears as though those fears were groundless, because users can still upload up to 20,000 songs for free.
To sign up to Google Music, simply head to music.google.com and log in with your Google account. Users will need to download the Google music program on their computer and at the moment, you must be resident in the United States. If a user has an enormous music collection it will take a while to upload, but once it does, users will be ready to listen to all of their favorite music anywhere they want.
In addition to going public, Google has also added a music store on the Android market. Their music store offers more than 13 million tracks. Music can be purchased from a computer or an Android device with the application.
At this point, there is a mobile application available for Android devices running version 2.2 and above. For iOS users, there is still the Google Music web application.
It is clear that Google is taking music extremely seriously, and their efforts with Google Music reflect that. They have even gone as far as landing some exclusive music from artists like Busta Rhymes, The Rolling Stones and Shakira.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Review and Giveaway

Few smartphones are as aggressively marketed as Samsung’s Galaxy S5. The S5 can no longer be considered brand-new — but it  is  Samsung’s flagship, at least for the next few months. With a gorgeous screen, a capable camera, a waterproof build, and a user-replaceable battery, the Galaxy S5 has a lot to offer… at least on paper. Let’s find out how good it really is. What Makes This Review Different There are about a million Galaxy S5 reviews out there. Why should you read this one? Two keys points make our review different: We bought our own device . Unlike many tech blogs, we don’t use a review unit Samsung gave us. We went out to the store and bought one, just like you would. This means everything you read here is truly impartial – we owe Samsung nothing. We used it for more than a month . Some sites rush to be the first to publish a review on a new device. That’s not how we do things. I used the Galaxy S5 as my main (and only) Android phone for nearly two months,...

Ex-Skypers Launch Virtual Whiteboard Deekit

Although seriously long in the tooth and being disrupted by a plethora of startups, for many years Skype has existed as an almost ubiquitous app in any remote team’s toolkit. So it seems apt that a new startup founded by a team of ex-Skype employees is set to tackle another aspect of online collaboration. Deekit, which exits private beta today, is a virtual and collaborative whiteboard to help remote teams work smarter. The Tallinn, Estonia-based startup is headed up by founder and CEO, Kaili Kleemeier, who was previously a Head of Operations at Skype. She and three colleagues quit the Internet calling giant in 2012 and spent a year researching ideas in the remote team space. They ended up focusing on creating a new virtual whiteboard, born out of Kleemeier’s experience collaborating with technical teams remotely, specifically helping Skype deal with incident management. “Working with remote teams has been a challenge in many ways – cultural differences, language differences, a...
