Google+ dominates poll despite stacked deck!

Lifehacker is running a poll, asking "What’s Your Social Network of Choice?"

But they give Facebook and Twitter an unfair advantage: At the bottom are "Like" buttons for Facebook and Twitter. They're giving a tool to virally promote the poll on two of the social networks, but not the others. As a result, Facebook and Twitter have WAY more votes than Linkedin, Pinterest, MySpace and Instagram.

But Google+ is dominating the poll anyway, with (at the time I write this) twice as many votes as Facebook.

That's not enough.

Since Lifehacker decided to favor Facebook and Twitter, let's send them some Google+ love in the form of MASSIVE votes for Google+:

Just posted this on the official google blog:

Sergey and I first heard about Android back in 2004, when Andy Rubin came to visit us at Google. He believed that aligning standards around an open-source operating system would drive innovation across the mobile industry. Most people thought he was nuts. But his insight immediately struck a chord because at the time it was extremely painful developing services for mobile devices. We had a closet full of more than 100 phones and were building our software pretty much device by device. It was nearly impossible for us to make truly great mobile experiences. 

Fast forward to today. The pace of innovation has never been greater, and Android is the most used mobile operating system in the world: we have a global partnership of over 60 manufacturers; more than 750 million devices have been activated globally; and 25 billion apps have now been... more »

BIM Content Creation

During the virtual construction of one of our projects the architect requested that we utilize the Studio Italia Design KAPP suspended fixture shown below.  We took it upon ourselves to model the fixture for the conceptual design.  Below is a PDF showing an actual photo, a 3DS Max Rendering and a 3D PDF of the Revit model that was created.  Feel free to download the PDF using the link below to check out the 3D PDF.

What are some of the more complex BIM content that you have created?

If you have any questions please list them below.  If you are interested in having us create some of your content feel free to contact us.

Ember LED visited us today to tell us about their solar powered LED fixtures.  We were very impressed with the E-SHINE STREET fixture.  It is the most powerful solar powered streetlight in the market today.  It has outpaced all competition in the market with the highest lumen output.  With the ability to achieve over 10,000 lumens, it is the first solar street light to meet RP-8 standards and to legitimately eliminate the need for traditional wired street lighting.

The mysteries of the wailing wall tunnels revealed through Glass.

If I had Glass, I would share with the world all the hidden treasures of the Holy Land - the history, the culture, the real modern life of this ancient land.

As an Israeli with an adopted Palestinian brother, I can share the real conversations that take place around the dinner table, that will show the world what the media/gov doesn't want you to see - peace is already there.

What does Israel look like through Glass?

I can show you!

Ability to use Hangout apps as a page
I am not sure when this 'feature' launched, but THIS IS HUGE NEWS!

You are now able to set a username/password for your Google+ page as an owner. This allows you to use third party tools like Hangout apps. You can also log into your page directly by using the username/password combo.

This means you can run +Hangout Toolbox for instance and lower thirds.

In the future that may also allow you to connect a YouTube channel directly to your page, which will make it easier for you to record your live Hangouts (HOA) to the correct YouTube channel.

The information about how to set your password for your page can be found on the official support page: http://goo.gl/gKn5d

More Hangouts love for different bandwidth environments

Today we're excited to launch two new features that improve the Hangouts experience in areas with low and/or unreliable connectivity:

1) Bandwidth slider. At the top right of every hangout is a new slider that lets you adjust your bandwidth preferences in real-time. This makes it easier to keep hangouts going, even in areas with poor connectivity.

2) Audio-only mode. Choose this mode to send and receive audio only, and thus, significantly reduce your bandwidth requirements. Other participants will only see your profile picture, but they'll hear you loud and clear.

Both of these features are coming your way today but they're rolling out separately so you may see one before you see the other. Very soon both features will be available to everyone, so give 'em a try and let us know what you... more »
