Samsung will be unveiling their new product in Germany tomorrow (11 Oct).   Head of Mobile Division JK Shin has confirmed that this new Galaxy S3 Mini will have a 4-inch display.  This is their response to a huge demand of 4-inch screen phone in Europe. Let's look at the difference between the original Galaxy S3 and it's younger brother, the Galaxy S3 Mini. FEATURES GALAXY S3 GALAXY S3 "mini" Display 4.8 Super AMOLED 4.0 Super AMOLED Pixel Resolution 1280 x 720 800 x 480 Processor Exynos 4 quad core 1.4 Ghz STE U8420 dual-core 1.0 Ghz RAM 1 GB 1 GB Camera 8 megapixels 5 megapixels Storage 16, 32, or 64 GB Internal, microSD up to 64 GB 16 GB Internal, microSD up to 32 GB Galaxy S3 Mini id an entry-level smartphone so we should expect the price to be cheaper than the larger S3 . We'll wait and see tomorrow. Hopefully Apple won't sue them for using the word "Mini" :)

I just watched a video on YouTube showing how to physically copy and reproduce a wrench (the tool that is used by plumbers like Super Mario ) by just using a 3D printer.  This paradigm-shifting technology triggered a lot of interest from hobbyist, home makers, and even hackers.  It will enable you to  reproduce anything you want; from bolts and nuts, to chess pieces and toy parts (imagine not having to worry about losing your Lego parts?). In the very near future, this technology, just like our pc, this will be available in each individual's home. This might help speed up our technological innovations and evolution.  Creating prototypes of your inventions can now easily be done at the comfort of your "home lab" a.k.a. garage or basement. While 3D printer in each home looks promising, some people are wary of its effect.  What will happen to our manufacturing industry? Will they still survive if everyone can create their own phone casing or clothes ha

Wouldn't you wish that your phone could last for at least a day? In this article, I will show you how I managed to keep my phone up and running for 2 straight days! Just a proof that I'm not bluffing, here is my Galaxy S II phone's screenshot: I did not charge it for as long as 2 days and 15 hours. Now here are the steps on how I did it. 1. Disable all unwanted applications. When you first bought your phone, it came with some "free" apps that you may not necessary need. They are also known as "bloatware". My phone came with pre-installed Weather Apps and some apps that were installed by my Telco.  I disabled all of them by going to Settings > Applications screen. If you're not sure if it's safe to disable the application, you can ask me by sending your comments. Here are some screenshots of the applications that I disabled.  I have disabled Social Hub because I don't need it.  I also disabled

  It seems like there's not much going on in Flickr. It's been 2 years since I last registered to that site and nothing has changed to their features.  Is Yahoo letting it die a natural death? I also noticed that there's a lot of photo sharing websites that are sprouting like mushrooms.  And they all look quite good and comparable to Flicker (and also Photobucket).  I visited this website called 500px .  This website is way slicker and was elegantly designed. By its dark background, it allows you to focus on the photos.  You may want to try it.
