Last night’s SNL provided a treat for Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg fans as, for the first time, Mark met Jesse Eisenberg who portrayed Mark in the movie The Social Network. Mark’s performance was a little stiff and “Awkberg”…
Every few days I am asked what are the best apps for the iPad and what my iPad favorite apps are. In fact, last May, I wrote about My 12 Favorite iPad Apps where I called out 12 of the best apps for iPad so I thought I’d revisit the list to see if my favorites have changed. As expected, my top apps for iPad have evolved over time. For example, only three of the twelve iPad apps have remained on my list for best apps for iPad including Kindle, Zinio and Mail.
Read on to see what my best apps for the iPad list include for January 2011.

iPads, iPods, iPhones, Macs and iTunes oh my Jobs! Apple released first quarter results that surprised and beat the street with profit up $6.43 a share which was up from $3.67 last year and even beat Cramer’s “wild high” estimate of $6. Sales dramatically increased from $15.683B from a year ago to $26.74B this past quarter.
How could this happen? After all my partner mentioned:
This isn’t going to be a device that everyone wants or needs. If you’re already a laptop owner, you’re probably not foaming at the mouth for one of these. Sure a touchscreen is nice, but is it nicer than having Flash support in your Web browser?

Some entrepreneurs stumbled on some great ways to make money during 2010 and this slideshow walks through 10 business models that rocked 2010.
The years of speculation and rumors are over, Verizon finally announced that the Apple iPhone will be “coming to America’s most reliable network” at the Verizon press conference this morning. The Apple iPhone will be available on February 10th, 2011 and existing subscribers are able to pre-order on February 3rd on a “first come, first serve” basis via VerizonWireless.com. The pre-orders will only be taken online for both consumer and business. New customers have to wait for the February 10th launch to purchase in select channels.
Pricing for Verizon’s iPhone 4 is similar to AT&Ts pricing starting at $199.99 for the 16GB model and $299.99 for the 32GB model. This pricing requires a 2 year commitment to Verizon. Existing Verizon users are able to redeem their New Every Two credit but there will be no early upgrade promotions like AT&T offered last year. Minimum service requires a nationwide plan with a data package, but pricing has not been released yet.
If you just purchased a phone on Verizon within the past 30 days, you can exchange the phone with a restocking fee to “upgrade” to an iPhone 4.

Several security flaws have been discovered in a best-selling brand of Internet-enabled HDTVs and the security researchers that discovered the hole believe it’s likely that similar security flaws exist in other Internet-enabled HDTVs.
Mocana, a technology company offering products for device security frameworks including embedded SSL and SSH as well as IPSEC and alternatives to OpenSSH, discovered that the TV’s Internet interface failed to confirm script integrity prior to running remote scripts resulting in intercepted transmissions using “rogue DNS” or TCP session hijacking techniques. Mocana then demonstrated that JavaScript could be injected allowing attackers to take control of the Internet functionality of the HDTV which could lead to Denial of Service (DoS) or local home network hacking as well s phishing for credit card information.
Mocana was able to recover the manufacturer’s private “third-party developer keys” from the television as this information was transmitted in the clear (funny how Mocana sells embedded SSL technologies to encrypted such transmissions).

The new Ford Focus Electric was announced by Ford CEO Alan Mulally in a keynote speech at CES.
With claims that the car will provide better mile-per-gallon equivalent (mpg-e) than the Chevy Volt and a full recharge in three to four hours which is half the time required to recharge the electric Nissan Leaf, the all electric car turned a few heads. According to the EPA, the Volt gets an estimated 93 mpg-e on electricity, 37 mpg on gasoline, and 60 mpg average. The all-electric Leaf gets a 99 mpg-e rating from the EPA.
