RIP SkyDrive. Welcome OneDrive

Microsoft has officially renamed its cloud storage service with some useful new features including collaborative editing and smart video streaming.
This change was because of a legal dispute with TV company BskyB, and on Wednesday the rebrand went global
Everthinng about OneDrive remains the same as SkyDrive expect for several massive improvements. The biggest being people can now simultaneously access and edit files stored in OneDrive. Other additions include an updated android app that will automatically save photos and videos captured on the device to OneDrive.
Apart from that, today Microsoft also lauches a new referral program, it is very reminiscent of Dropbox's referral system. If a friend signs up using your link, you get 500MB of free storage, up to a maximum of 10 friends and doing the maths of that we have a maximum of 5GB to be given out.
With this introduction, i guess the competition between these cloud system, that is, google's Drive, apple's iCloud is going to be more stiff. So watch out and see out each of them edge over the other.

TECNO S5

TECNO S5
Hi guys, whats happening with you all. It’s been long since I posted. That is basically because I was writing my exams. Am done with that so am back here. So today we would be looking at the Tecno s5. Another of Tecno Superb phones out there. Yeah this tecno guys have released quite a lot of phones and trust me, we’ve all not seen enough of them. Like it is usually said, probably what we’ve just seen is just the tip of the iceberg. Would be expecting a lot from them this year. So back to the S5. Not really sure when it was launched but I guess it was sometime in December last year. So it aint so stale cause I would be writing some reviews on some stale phones and when I say stale, I really mean stale and am also thinking of a situation where I would not just be based on tecno phones alone but also tech news so be expecting quite a lot from me in the next few weeks. Time to take a dive into the Tecno S5, so get your swimming trunks ready and dive along with me.
 
Design: The S5 comes with a quite moderate sized screen which is about 4.5”. Yeah, that screen size is kind of great for me, it’s not too big and it is neither so small. Also has the normal Tecno buttons round it which are the volume rocker and the power button, both sides. Its dimensions are 135.9*68.8*10.75mm. just looking at the dimensions alone I guess you know it’s kind of small but also big. Not really sure how many colour brands are out there, but am pretty sure it comes in both white and black colours.

Operating System: Like most other Tecno phones released recently, it comes stocked with the Google Android version 4.2.2 which is popularly known as Jelly bean. So BBM, and other high OS demanding applications would run smoothly on this.

Memory: It comes equipped with 4GB of Ram, but like every other phone out there, don’t be expecting it to be complete because of the applications that have already been installed on it from the factory. But as usual no need to entertain fear because it has an expandable microSD card space which can accommodate up to 32GB of microSD card.
It has 512Mb Ram.

Processor: Game lovers always waiting for this part of the phone. Guess what, this phone is not also ready to let you down as it comes with 1.3 GHz Dual core powered by MEDIATEK, yeah like every other Tecno phone out there. It’s quite cool.

Camera: Yeah, the camera, also what some of us really like about a phone. It comes with a dual camera like every other phone, with the rear being equipped with 5.0MP of camera with flash while the front camera is about 1.2MP. So video calls are one thing we really want to try out on this phone.

Battery Life: Since the screen aint that large and does not have all those power consuming features, the phone comes equipped with a battery capacity of 1800mAh. Pretty cool for a phone of this kind of specifications.

Price: Like what Tecno has done with every of their other phones, this phone is also of such a reasonable price. Thumbs up to tecno.
19, 000 (120 USD)

FlappyBird

A lot of us would be wondering why FlappyBird was brought down.
Same down here because I was about downloading it when i found out that it has been removed from the playstore.
The game which has spent close to a year on the stores did not really receive much attention until the beginning of this year. We don't know why but allegations against the owner suggests that he made use of bots to make his game popular. Also it is believed that he was also threatened by Nintendo which mad him pull the game away from the stores because of the pipes in the game look like
So the combination of all this allegations made him pull the game of the store.

those in  their once ever popular 'Super Mario' game pipes, and one more thing, not sure about this though, because i have not played it, it is also said that the creator made the game intentionally hard.

Still would have loved to have it on my phone.
