Instagram For Android : App Review

Instagram for Android has finally arrived, a free social image sharing app that has already been downloaded more than 1 million times. You start with creating a free account and linking your Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare and Tumblr accounts with it (note that app requires access to post on your behalf to these networks). Once done, you can choose to follow instagram updates from your friends within the app - these appear in the home tab as your news feed. You can choose to shoot a new picture or upload one from your gallery, add a desired effect, add an optional comment and choose which social networks the image should be shared on. However, much to our dismay, the Android versions does not offer as many picture effects as the iOS version yet.


 Features:

☆ 100% free custom designed filters and borders
☆ Lux works its magic by making your photos more vibrant and brings out details in your photos you couldn't see before
☆ Instant sharing to Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Foursquare (Flickr coming very soon)

☆ Interact with friends through giving & receiving likes and comments

☆ Works with Android versions 2.2 and above that support OpenGL ES 2
☆ Full front & back camera support


Watch Live Tv & On-demand Movies On The Move



Television and movies are popular methods of entertainment, but many of us may not have the liberty to sit in front of a TV at a pre-determined time to catch a movie or a TV show. Thanks to handheld devices becoming more powerful and wireless Internet speeds slowly picking up, you can easily view live TV, full-length movies and tv shows on your tablet or smartphone. The free services usually offer limited content while the paid option could cost as a monthly DTH package. But the price you pay could make sense if you travel and often find some free time on your hands. Just connect to the internet and use these apps/sites to get entertained on the move.
