Good quick read on the differences between the two mobile platforms…

As the horsepower packed into mobile devices gets ever greater, more full-featured forms of multitasking are possible. The market leaders have very different ways of going about things, and there are numerous misconceptions about what is going on behind the scenes. This isn’t all the fault of the user, though. In the interest of ease of use, sometimes the multitasking metaphor is overly simplified on both Android and iOS.

I wonder how this relates to the unemployment numbers for the Houston area…

The total personal income for individuals living in the Houston region grew 3.1 percent between 2009 and 2010, according to figures released Tuesday by the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis.

The bureau released total personal income data for 366 metropolitan areas. Total personal income is the income received by all people from all sources in a given year.

Personal income among the metro areas increased 2.9 percent in 2010 after falling 1.9 percent in 2009, according to the data.

Houston was No. 5 among the top areas, with total personal income of $281.8 billion, up from $273.2 billion in 2009.

As enticing as a free smartphone might be at first, you’re asking for trouble down the line. Let’s talk about the perils of going cheap on Android.

Now, the debut is set for March, the source said.Still shroud in black draping, the new Apple outpost at the northwest corner of Westheimer and Drexel would be the city’s first stand-alone store.The top-secret design is supposed to be a prototype for future stores in the chain.Houston blogger Tracy Evans recently posted a rendering of the building based on “dozens of photos and several trips to the construction site to verify details.”
