Welcome to the weekly roundup of the best new Android applications, games, and live wallpapers that went live in the Market or were spotted by us in the previous week or so. This week, I am trying something a little different due to complaints about the heavy weight of these roundups. There are now no usual app widgets, Appbrain widgets, barcodes, or embedded videos. There are also fewer screenshots - instead, I'm picking out only the most interesting ones. Because there are no Appbrain widgets, I decided to include the current price for paid apps next to the Market link. Video links, when available, go to the same area. Please let me know whether you prefer the old roundup style or the new one, or maybe a mix of both. Thanks! Today’s roundup is sponsored by XIMAD and their game Ninja Shooter Premium. Ninja Shooter is a classic bubble shooter game, Read More

HP's earnings were brutal this past quarter, sure. In response, new CEO Meg Whitman's clarion call to investors, repeated over and over again? We need to be more clear. We need to let you know what's going on. Just not... right... now. For all of Whitman's posturing about the need to tell us what's in store for HP, she glossed right over the company's biggest question mark: the fate of webOS. Honestly, at this point? Just take it behind the barn and shoot it. Or sell it to someone who cares.More » Read More

After Android developer Justin Case uncovered a Skype security vulnerability, the question of Android’s safety was raised once again. Inadequate security measures gave potential hackers access to private user data on Skype’s Android app, emphasizing Skype’s shortcomings, as well as Google’s. Less than a week later, Skype’s updated its Android app, and added 3G calls as a bonus feature. The White House also made things official with a new Android release. Skype has pushed through a swift update for its Android app, addressing the security loophole that recently landed the VoIP provider in hot water. Free, Skype’s Android app has also added 3G calling, in addition to its Wi-Fi support. Skype’s heavy on its Android presence, marking its territory as a FaceTime competitor. As Skype strives for an IPO, maintaining its front line products is going to be key. President Obama has always promoted transparency with his administration, so it’s not Read More

The public eye’s been turned to Android security in recent months, but it’s nothing new for Google. The matter of data collection and privacy standards has been re-visited with the Wall Street Journal’s latest expose, revealing Apple (AAPL) and Google (GOOG) partaking in controversial methods of gathering consumer information. The Journal points out Google’s differentiated method of data collection, saying that location data appears to be transmitted regardless of whether an app is running. Android’s safety has been questioned tirelessly as of late, but the discussion around Google’s data collection methods isn’t a new one. Google found itself defending the Street Views initiative, which collected hyper-local photo and Wi-Fi data. The proliferation of Internet-capable phones has greatly increased the opportunities and use cases for Google to collect and calculate data. While Google uses this data for things like traffic maps, street-level map views and local search recommendations, the true power behind Read More
