Fake Siri App hits Android market

Late Thursday, we discovered a pair of Android applications claiming to be "the answer to Siri for Android" and even sport Apple's Siri logo (as shown on the right).

According to the description:

Siri, now for your Android device!

This application is a Siri icon that opens "Google's Voice Actions" app.

Google Voice Actions is a powerful app that comes with every Android device. It supports many different voice commands and Google is constantly working to make it even more powerful. Show your iPhone friends your Android phone can do what Siri does!
Some Example Commands include:

Send text messages
Say "send text to [recipient] [message]*"
e.g. "send text to Allison Miller Running late. I will be home around 9"

How to: Take a screen shot with your iOS device

By: Dan Uff

Yes, there are other articles on this topic, but I am recapping this clever hint for our readers and for new users who have gotten a new iOS device for the holidays.

An iOS device (iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad) have the ability to take a picture of their screen, and then save it to the photo album.  To do this:

1.  Go to the screen that you wish to take a photo of.
2.  Hold down the power and the home buttons at the same time.
3.  You'll hear a photo shutter.  The phone has taken the picture.
4.  Go in to the photo album.  The screen shot photo should be there.

That's it.
