New topics on my blog, Bove’s Blips:
“The Magical Mystery Chord” — You all know it when you hear it: the most famous chord in rock that reverberates on George Harrison’s 12-string Rickenbacker: the opening of “A Hard Day’s Night”. A mathematician has figured out the exact formula.
“All I Need is the Air that I Breathe” — Google has added sophisticated voice recognition technology to the company’s iPhone search software. You can speak into the iPhone rather than type with the iPhone’s keyboard, and Google will search for relevant info.
“iPhone Ad Apps — Shaken Not Stirred” — Hollywood studios are using free apps on the iPhone to promote movies. Bands are also getting in the act, though not in an innovative way (yet). All this stuff proves that the iPhone has shaken up, not just stirred up, the content industry.
