Top five money-saving apps

Mobile phones have changed the way many of us use technology over the last decade, with even self-appointed technophobes owning the latest smartphones. This is thanks in no small part to their excellent versatility - these mobiles aren't just useful for keeping up with work e-mails and making appointments anymore, they're entertainment devices, games consoles and communications tools all wrapped up into one. The huge number of applications available only makes them more appealing, and many companies are jumping aboard by creating dedicated apps for vouchers and discounts. Take a look for some of our favourites, and start saving money straight away:

Living Social

Offering users discounts in their local area as well as nationwide, Living Social is a great way to discover new places and products. As well as regular deals, you can expect daily offers of up to 90 per cent off at selected restaurants. The app also has money off activities, including comedy nights, city tours and spa days. It's great for families, as there are usually deals and offers for kids, too, and if you have people visiting it's ideal for a trip somewhere special without breaking the budget!

Voucher Cloud

Voucher Cloud is similar to Living Social, but offers a lot more in the way of lifestyle options, including shopping and holidays in its daily deals. Download the code straight to your phone and use it straight away, or just browse for the deals you can get nearby for a quick, easy day plan! Vouchers work in-store as well, so make sure you have your smartphone at the ready whenever you hit the shops.

Quidco

If you like collecting loyalty points Quidco is an absolute must; the app allows you to build up cashback in a number of different stores, including Asda and Tesco as well as large-scale purchases from Expedia and Debenhams. Simply shop online via the app - or indeed the website, from your PC - and start collecting money straight away!

Cardstar

Another one for point collectors, Cardstar could quickly turn into your most useful app. This is one you'll need to take into the shop with you, as it records every loyalty card you hold - meaning that instead of rifling through cards at the checkout, you can simply pull out your phone and have the cashier scan the front.

Viber

Viber offers an excellent way to save money on your calls and minutes by using your data network instead of your allocated call time. If you have an unlimited plan this is ideal for cutting down on your monthly bills, and means you can enjoy unlimited communication without worrying about how much you're spending!

“It’s Just Email”: Misconceptions About BYOD Risks

“Off to the gym after work!” A quote from a celebrity or philosopher. A snapshot of the snow falling outside your office window. These are just some of the things you might post to your Facebook page from your mobile device while you’re at work. Or maybe you send a tweet about the latest celebrity scandal or forward an interesting article to your mom using your work email. On the surface, you might think these posts are completely innocuous. And speaking content-wise, you might be right. An Instagram photo of a snowy scene doesn’t present any inherent risks — unless of course, your company is the intended victim of a targeted attack and a cybercriminal is monitoring your activity, looking for a means to gain access to your company’s network.

The consumerization of IT — allowing employees to use their own devices for work functions — brings with it a host of security concerns that must be addressed. Because, as Trend Micro reports, many employers are shifting to a bring-your-own-device (BYOD) environment in an effort to increase productivity and follow current trends — it’s important for IT departments (and employees) to understand what such a shift means in terms of security and avoid common misconceptions that often lead to security issues.

How Criminals Use Mobile Devices to Access Data

With smartphones and tablets enabled to perform almost any task that a computer can, employees are using their mobile devices to do everything from check email to produce quotes for customers. Mobile devices serve both as on-the-go storage devices, full of contacts and proprietary information, and a means of access to a corporate network.

The simplest way that criminals can access corporate networks and steal data is by getting their hands on the device. Every day, hundreds of mobile devices are lost or stolen. In some cases, the theft is deliberate, but in others, criminals just get lucky. Loss and theft is a definite concern among IT security professionals, but the greater security risk comes from the phone itself. Viruses, malware and madware specifically targeted to mobile devices are becoming increasingly common. Employee devices may become inadvertently infected with this harmful software via a malicious app or by the user opening an email or instant message on their phone. The app works in the background, collecting data such as contact lists, calls made and messages sent, or by monitoring logins to the company network.

When a criminal accesses the company network via a cloud-based service or an employee’s password-protected access, he can then cull information and data from the internal servers and transfer it to an external server — often before anyone notices that there is a problem.

Protecting Devices Requires a Plan

Although many companies mistakenly believe that accessing email — or other company networks — via mobile devices without safeguards isn’t really dangerous, just as many organizations mistakenly believe that protecting their network is difficult or impossible.

Securing your data in the BYOD environment requires a two-pronged approach: a comprehensive mobile-device-management (MDM) protocol coupled with data-protection solutions that limit access to the network without proper authentication and regularly audit the network for unauthorized or unusual access.

As part of the MDM plan, employees need to let go of the notion that they maintain full control of the devices they use for work. The best security plans allow for a certain amount of freedom — obviously, employees will be using their devices for personal reasons — with restrictions and safeguards. Acceptable-use policies, for example, may govern which websites or apps an employee can access with a work device, and remote locking or wiping capabilities will be employed when the device is lost or stolen or after a certain number of failed log-in attempts.

Understanding the realities of the BYOD environment and taking necessary precautions will save businesses time, money and public relations’ nightmares. Employees need to understand that the freedom to use their preferred device comes with some responsibilities and limitations — and that their email (and social media and app use) does make a difference and needs to be protected.

Best Internet Connection to Play Mobile Games

There are three basic kinds of internet connection around at the moment. There is Mobile, where a mobile device or a “dongle” connects to the internet and provides a connection either to itself to a device to which it is connected. Then there is Cable, which is a hard line connection usually reserved for high traffic areas and/or office or business use. Then there is Broadband. 

This is the typical home connection that most people have access to. Some people still use the old style Dial-up connection where a small box makes screeching noises, but these are rare nowadays. If you are serious about playing mobile casino such as online pokies then chances are that you play at home with your mobile device by accessing the internet through your home broadband or other internet connection, but what about when you aren't at home? 

Most mobile phone contracts offer a network deal these days that include a certain amount of data usage. This can range anywhere from 100 megabytes a month to five gigabytes a month and can cost you anywhere between thirty and sixty pounds per month, but the whole point of mobile casino games is to make you some money so it doesn't make sense to be spending money to play the game. In most cities there are establishments that offer free Wi-Fi. 

This allows unlimited access to the internet through any device meaning that you can check email, catch up on social networks and play mobile casino games to your heart’s content as long as you can get onto the network itself. These networks are usually free, but sometimes you may have to fill in a card to activate a membership allowing you access to all the internet you can handle.

Availability of Mobile Gaming Apps

Technology today has a profound impact on our lives. This would include the innovation of the smartphone which is essentially a phone merged with a computer. Before the smartphone, people mainly enjoyed gaming online at online casino websites. However, with advancements in technology, gaming can now also be enjoyed on one’s phone.

In order to take advantage of mobile gaming, you must have a way in which to play the game on your phone; normally this is one or more of the apps offered for your specific smartphone operating system. Different gaming apps are offered from the specific casino with which you want to play.
Depending upon the operating system of your smartphone, you may have more gaming apps available to you than others. Typically, Android and iPhone have the most gaming apps. Some online casinos offer a standard gaming app that allows the users to interface with certain casinos offerings. However, usually the sites will require a separate app for different games.
A variety of gaming apps are available, but they do vary depending on how far the online casino site has delved into mobile gaming. However, one can most always expect the more popular games to be available in a gaming app. For instance, poker and blackjack can almost always be found in a mobile gaming app. Some of these gaming apps may also include variations of these games which increases the selection and choice for the player.

Other gaming apps that can usually be found are for roulette and slot machines. Some sites may only offer one or two slot machines. As far as roulette goes, European roulette is often the most prevalent form of this game found in a gaming app. Some sites, like Ladbrokes.com, will also offer American roulette. However, since this technology is rather new, the availability of variations can be quite limited.

Apple Enters in Cell-Phone Map and Navigation, Should Google be Threatened?

Every person that holds a smart-phone uses one main application for maps and navigation and that is Google Maps. Google has had a competitive advantage over all smart-phones even Iphone as every phone is bundled with Google’s maps and navigation applications.

Apple and Google are major competitors and they try to beat each other in every possible way, either by launching new applications or new operating systems, their competition is quite interesting and to make matters more versatile Apple has just announced that all it’s smart-phones won’t be carrying Google Maps after fall, they’ll be using Apple’s own map application and this will be available in Iphone 5 and for software updates to make it available to pre-iPhone users.

Apple considers maps and navigation something very important and considering Google has ruled over the map mobile market they perhaps are right. But now the basic question that needs to be given thought is if Apple’s map service will be better than Google’s – a question every Average Joe Android spy is asking. 

We all know Apple to be a fierce competitor, coming out with new ideas and innovations but then Google is also the king of innovations. If in case Apple’s map service fails to provide the same service as Google’s many users might leave their Iphone’s for the reigning Android smart-phones. Although this belief might seem dense it is actually possible. People who travel a lot, either businessmen or service providers need map applications to tour around and reach their destinations. We shouldn’t question Apple’s fidelity deeply, considering if it does bring about a map application that is better than Google’s then they might be in trouble.

According to an analyst in Creative Strategies if Apple does succeed in building a better map service it will give more worth to the Iphone as user’s these days try to go forth and try things that are new and interesting.

Apple’s news about entering the map world wasn’t a big revelation, Apple has been buying quite a lot of firms that indulge in map services and it has also taken security rights over places in more than hundred countries. Even though Apple is working hard towards accomplishing its goal it’s still quite a long way to go. Considering Google’s example it has spent millions of dollars in perfecting its map services and deployed technology and resources that have baffled the consumers. Google’s street view was a pleasant shocker to all the map users and since then Google maps has reigned over the map application world. Apple will definitely find it very hard to come up with something that’s better than Google’s idea or even try to replicate it.

Apple might still be able to surprise its users. Although it hasn’t done a lot of work as yet it is still known for coming up with products. Although the cost of starting a map service and making it possible for consumers will have a cost that is estimated to be around $1 billion, Apple might just make it or else suffer from a great loss.

Although Google has it’s own map service and that is available in all Android phones it was still quite profitable to reign over a competitors product. Google already has different competitors considering Microsoft is venturing into mapping using it’s Bing search service and Nokia is adhering to map facilities given by Yahoo, they still have a long way to go before they reach the same rank as Google’s. The only question left now is if Apple will be able to beat all these competitors and reach Google in time.

Why Next-Generation Touchscreen Devices Could Have ‘Physical’ Buttons

If you want to check out home phone and internet packages to find the ones that best suit your needs, you will also be interested in knowing the devices that you can use to access the internet. Touchscreen devices have become quite popular recently. There are a number of tablets, eBook readers and mobile devices you can choose from. You can send text messages and even dial numbers on a touchscreen mobile device the same way as you do using your normal cell phone.

Although touchscreen devices have no buttons, you can still do all the functions without difficulty. This concept however is going to be changed by Tactus Technology – a company based in California. The latest technology introduced by this company allows physical buttons to appear on the touchscreen devices as and when needed. If you need to use your device to text or dial your friend, the special Tactile Layer will help the buttons appear on the screen.

This technology is magical in the sense that the buttons will only appear for the time you are actually using the device. Once you finish your work and your device is no longer in use, the buttons will disappear or go back inside the device. This concept can be used on a variety of touchscreen devices including mobile devices, tablets and eBook readers.

A decade back, no one ever imagined that devices can work without physical buttons.

Technically, you will think that there must be marks or indications on your touchscreen device to highlight areas where buttons had appeared earlier. But the recent display of this new technology showed that the buttons leave no traces after they go back in the device. This feature is mainly due to the use of microfluidic technology.

The buttons that appear on your device will give you the same experience as if you were using a keyboard for the same task. What more will this technology offer?

Benefits of Using A Video Teleconference System

Using a video teleconference system can benefit you, and a business, in many ways. Since money and convenience are main concerns in the modern world, communication has evolved to meet the desires of the public and of corporations and businesses. If you are currently engaged in phone conferences, you may want to consider video teleconference service providers. A teleconference via video can be a huge benefit in your personal or professional life, allowing you to not only converse with friends or professionals; they allow you to see them in real time, to view any demonstration you may need to see. Teleconferences have become very popular in the last decade, and video teleconferences are now reaching their peak of popularity.

Affordability of Video Teleconferencing Services

Video teleconference providers can be extremely affordable, and even free. There are many providers that are competing for the attention of potential consumers, so you will have no problem finding a provider that suits your desires. One example of a convenient and free teleconferencing provider is Skype. This provider will allow you to hold a video chat with other Skype users for free. If you are looking for a service to hold a video conference with several people, you may want to seek a professional teleconferencing service. They will most likely have some initial fee, but many are very affordable. If you are seeking advanced capabilities and service options, along with high quality customer support, you may have to shell out a little more money.

Geographic Convenience of a Video Teleconference

Have you ever had to travel for an in-person conference? Sometimes, it can be quite a hassle. A video teleconference can almost always replace a physical conference, because you can communicate visually and verbally. Teleconferences allow you to attend a conference no matter what your location may be; as long as you have an internet connection. It allows all conference attendees to attend a conference from home or work, without the need to travel. It can save hours, or even days, in an individual’s personal schedule. Video conferences can even include document sharing, so you can share documents or important notes with other attendees; just as you would with a physical conference.

Monetary Convenience Associated With Teleconferences

As stated, money is a major concern in our world; especially when it comes to saving money where available. When you attend a conference in person, there are many costs to take into consideration. They may be as simple as general travel costs: such as train tickets or gasoline, along with meal costs. If you are traveling a great distance, you must then consider the cost of airfare or your preferred travel method, hotel rental, vehicle rental, extended meal costs, and required travel supplies. These costs can range with different individuals, but they can all be avoided when replacing an in-person conference with a video teleconference. A video teleconference can save time, money, and stress; all while providing the same benefits of an in-person conference. It is easy to see why video conferences have become incredibly popular with the rise of high speed internet, especially with the money that can be saved by utilizing them.

Why Mobile PCs are for work while smartphones are used for play?

Given the choice of a mobile PC or a smartphone which would you choose and why? Perhaps like many other people you would have both, one for work and the other forplay. Or is there already another alternative?

Mobile PCs
A mobile PC has the same functionality and software as a desktop PC but runs on batteries and is fully portable. To truly deliver mobility, their most important function is allowing the user to connect to the Internet wirelessly, via mobile broadband.

The principal classifications of mobile PCs are those of laptop, notebook, netbook and tablet. Each of these sub types has specific definitions, mostly relative to their size, although there is some overlap between the categories. The general guidelines are as follows:

Laptops, notebooks and netbooks all have a similar physical specification in that theyare hinged and when opened up display a screen and separate keyboard. Touch screen versions are available, but are less common.

Today's laptop most commonly has a screen size of approximately 15" and will weigh up to around 10 lbs. Larger screen sizes are available but can become cumbersome to transport although they are popular with the gaming fraternity.

Notebooks are smaller and lighter than laptops with screen sizes ranging from 11" through to 15". They will have the much of the same functionality as their larger counterparts but are likely to be more expensive for a similar specification, reflecting the increased production and component costs.

Netbooks first went on sale in 2008, intended specifically designed for use on the Internet rather than for processing power. Most have screens ranging in size from 10" through to 12" with some models weighing as little as 2 lbs. In terms of processor speed and hard disk capacity, they are of a fairly low specification, but with the advent of cloud computing they are now really coming into their own.

Last but by no means least are tablet PCs. Tablets do not have a lid and feature touch screen operation, using either fingers or a stylus pen. They come in a wide variety of sizes and specification levels.

Smartphones
To all intents and purposes some of the high-specification smartphones now availableare akin to mini PCs in their own right. By definition they are extremely portable, reflecting their heritage as a hybrid between ordinary cell phones and PDAs.

Smartphones use different operating systems to mobile PCs, but with the wide range of 'apps' (software applications) available, they are almost equal in sophistication and functionality. Since some of the major smartphone operating systems (OS) are designed by mainstream players such as Microsoft and Apple, a significant degree of compatibility and interoperability with desktop OS is also present.

Unlike mobile PCs, smartphones allow the user to make phone calls, send text messages (SMS) and even multimedia messages (MMS). They invariably feature a high quality digital camera in addition to Bluetooth, GPS and 3G mobile broadband.

Summary
It is clear that both types of devices have their own advantages and disadvantages in thework/play balance, neither being ideal for every task. However, it is no longer necessary to own two separate devices.

The alternative is yet another hybrid, commonly referred to as a UMPC (Ultra MobilePersonal Computer). UMPCs are larger than smartphones but are far more compact than other variations of the mobile PC.

UMPC screen sizes are generally between 5" and 7" with most weighing a maximum of 1.5 lbs. They are capable of running a full Windows operating system and may be usedin the same way as a cell phone. Almost all are touch screen with some versions also boasting a full pull-out QWERTY keyboard.

The UMPC may provide the answer to true portability and is arguably a glimpse at themobile computing technology of the future.
