According to #MathewHonan 201o, “Let’s get this out of the way first: The #NexusS is an excellent phone. It’s not as nice as an #iPhone4 as a complete package. But it’s a great phone on its own merits, and it does even do many things better (connectivity, media-sharing, background processes and notifications). You very well may prefer this to an #iPhone, but it is not an iPhone. If you want an iPhone; you should buy an iPhone. Phew.

According to Ryan Singel 2010, “Facebook has long been a one-way valve. You put data in, so you can connect with friends, and then you can’t get it out and use it the way you would like to, even as the company is trying to corner the market on your identity. And Thursday night Google called out its rival on such data-portability hypocrisy: It banned the huge social network from allowing its users to connect their Gmail contacts to see who among them are also on Facebook to get the friending frenzy started.” Continued here > http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/11/google-facebook-data/ #socialmedia #datasharing #import #gmail #email #contacts @Epicenter @Wired @Google @Facebook @Jerrycallistejr
