Vine has arrived for Android. how do we know? Everyone is saying so and the Vine site looks like this.
Trouble is that when you click on the Play Store button you get this (as of 10 am on June 3, 2013).
I am sure this is a temporary thing but it shouldn’t happen at all should it?
UPDATE: All’s well in Android land as of 12:20 pm EST if you need your Vine app.
If there is one area of the online space that there seems to be little or no middle ground, it’s regarding Google+.
In one camp we have Google+ converts. They are the ones who have decided to go and utilize Google+ no matter what the consequences. These folks get into it heavily and are definitely working to move the brand forward just by their attention to it. Chief amongst those that I have been made aware of is Mark Traphagen. If you are interested in learning just about anything about Google+ he is a good place to start.
We hope you will take about 2 minutes to complete the following reader’s survey. We will be trying to get as many of you to complete this as possible throughout June.
So you are probably asking what’s playing on WII-FM (What’s In It For Me)? Well, each person who completes the survey will be part of a drawing on June 28, 2013 for an iPad Mini.
Thanks for your time and for your continued support.

How much of your privacy are you willing to give up in the name of national security? It’s a question that we’ve been pondering in some form since those boys in Philadelphia penned the Constitution. But doesn’t it feel like it’s become a stickier point in the 21st Century?
Look at the recent bombing in Boston. As soon as the suspects were named, people started asking questions. Why didn’t the FBI see this coming? Were there signs on social media accounts? Were there mobile phone calls that could have and should have been intercepted? After the fact, we’re quick to blame law enforcement for not digging deep enough. But think about it. If a month earlier, the FBI has asked for data from Facebook and Twitter, cell phone records and email records from a University, eyebrows would raise.
You’re driving through town and stop for a red light. Ping! That’s the sound of a mobile phone notification. Excited, you pick up your phone (which is always within reaching distance) and check, hoping it’s a cool Tweet or a text message from a friend. Nope. It’s an advertisement for the gas station on the next corner. Come in now and save 10 cents per gallon.
You check your gas gauge. You are a little low, so why not? The light turns green, you drive on and make an unscheduled stop at the gas station.
You’ve been snared by the drive-by coupon.
AdAge says that “filling stations” (must be an East coast thing, no one calls them that out here in the West) in three states are currently testing this new concept from iSign Media.

From the basics of potatoes and carrots to more complex dishes like burritos and chow mein, you can simply ask, “How much protein is in a banana?” or “How many calories are in an avocado?” and get your answer right away.
