Sync your TV show content on your iPad through audio
SanderElastique
The people at ABC (American Broadcasting CompanyW) and The Nielsen CompanyW have come up with a smart solution to synchronize content from your TV to your iPad so you can use the latter one as a true second screen.
By using some kind of audio fingerprinting, the ABC serie My Generation sync’s to the My Generation iPad app, providing the user with extra (interactive) content about the show, while watching the show.
I think this technology could get very interesting in the not to distant future.

API for fonts: Google Font Directory
SanderElastique
GoogleW announced Google Font Directory (Beta). This font directory is is an API to use non-web fontsW on a website. It supports the most popular browsers like Chrome (browser)W. Internet ExplorerW, FirefoxW, Safari (browser)W and Opera (browser)W, besides iOS (Apple)W and, strangely, Android (OS)W. Another “potential’ downside is that it has to download the fonts to the client and caches it on the client’s computer , if this gains popularity that won’t be that big of a deal.
Let the designing commence!

Flipboard, the next step in consuming social content
SanderElastique
If you got an iPadW you must, I repeat MUST, download Flipboard. This is a social (and I mean social) magazine which aggregates content your friends share via TwitterW and FacebookW, but also from sites like BoingBoingW and The OnionW in an extremely nice design. I think the concept and execution it is quite brilliant. A very high “Why didn’t I think of this?”

Google Chrome Fastball; an interactive social game
SanderElastique
Balls away!
GoogleW surprises again with a nice interactive viral for their webbrowser ChromeW. In Google Chrome Fastball, you have to solve puzzles with the help of online products, like TwitterW Last FMW and Google SearchW. This is all built within a custom YouTubeW site. In between the puzzles there is a cool clip of an iron ball going around a parcours of obstacles.. Just check it out. I like the mechanics, but couldn’t do a proper test if Chrome would better/faster then other browsers, because of an overwhelming response, the site is now down. So if you get the chance, check it out!
