Google Hot Rumor : Is Android "Game Center" Prepared ?

We all know that Apple’s iPhones is now being world’s top popular smartphones, even we also realize that Apple has so many lack of features, which they do not provide something we can now find on Android market. Android has done too much, Apple not even closer. I guess, this condition stimulate any kind of business plan, including by Google as online giant company.

One feature that is missing and I am sure you will agree with me which is several connection between the mobile phone and native apps, this kind of connection has been helping Apple to make their business stronger and even better than more active and aggressive system, perhaps as Google has right know. I guess it just for short time, you should realize it as well, and Google seems to acknowledge this clue as well. From trusted source, which said that Google is going to prepare the clone of iPhone’s Game Center, a great application which consolidates certain users with the leaderboards and also the gaming apps?


Business Insider has proved so many trusted “exclusive unconfirmed reports”, that’s why we write this report, even though has not been confirmed by the any official website about this report.

Quoted from Business Insider which said that Google has been preparing some tools to allow and let users to give any awards and trophies in doing games, including top rank, top rank players and teams, leaderboards, and another great feature.

Still from Business Insider source, Google is also developing the same or something like Apple’s has, or I am sure they will do better for example the payment method and process, it must be smoother than Apple has. The collaboration of both; Google and Apple can be great news, “if” Google is really preparing Android Game Center for their users.

Download Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0

Download Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0

Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 is available today, when your colleague requests you recommending an office suite and similar software, my first opinion should be Microsoft Office. But, I forgot to say that you will spend too much money just to get the most up to date or the original copy. And the most problem I always find on Microsoft Office is the compatibility, as example when you open other word document which was written with different platform, Microsoft Office will not be able to open and edit the data, perhaps you can open the file but not to edit, until you install and download the most recent update for that feature. I think it should be improved in the future, as users demand something more flexible, non costly and even some of them require free platform.

By the way, actually you can use free office software alternative that is much better, not much but it is better office tool I guess, which the update is available; Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0. with this software you will be able to create, open and edit almost 90% of office platform which are available today. The update of this office tool seems similar, it provides easier I guess than Microsoft Office did, even I dare you to compare between both of them.

Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 provides office document writing, spreadsheet and presentation creator modules; these are only some short list of the entire modules on the Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0. This office software usually will create ODF file name, and you can use another software platform to open it, for example is Lotus Symphony software. This software is firstly shipped by Apache Foundation, at this Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 version you will be able to get better features, faster performance, easier interface, larger modules numbers and so on.

Enjoy the power of Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 at here

Intel’s Haswell is possibly the best proof we currently have that the giant CPU maker is really suffering the desktop computer market.

Its overpriced CPU with useless iGPUs don’t really seem to appeal to buyers and AMD’s more capable and affordable APUs are taking overthe market.

Microsoft has announced that the 11.1 feature set here and it includes shader tracing and compiler enhancements, Direct3D device sharing, check support of new Direct3D 11.1 features and formats, process video resources with shaders, extended support for shared Texture2D resources and other useful features.

It seems that next year’s powerful iGPU from Intel will finally be able to take on last year’s Llano. That’s quite a bit behind AMD, but they’re getting there.
