The End Of The Road For Google Buzz?

Since its highly controversial release back in February of 2010, Google Buzz has failed to attract a fair share of positive spotlight. In fact, besides Buzz's deep Gmail and Maps integration, the service doesn't really bring anything truly unique to the table. For the social service to really gain traction, it would need to bring users something that they just "had to have." The sad fact is, Buzz didn't.Privacy concerns weren't the only issue.

Infrared (IR) Camera For Your Android?

Our friends at DARPA recently sent out a solicitation for the development of “wafer-sized thermal imagery sensors and optics” small enough to fit in your android handset.

We’d like to hear from you. Do you want an IR sensor on your android? How would you use it?Infrared (IR) Camera For Your Android? originally appeared on AndroidGuys.READ MORE....
