I am pro-Note 2 in this piece. So I am pretty amped about the Samsung Galaxy S4 and what it means for the Note 3. And from the looks of it Samsung hasn’t let me down.

If that pebble blue or cocaine white Samsung Galaxy SIII isn’t your thing, maybe red will tide you over. AT&T will begin taking pre-orders for the “Garnet Red” color beginning on July 15th.

If so then cough up $3,700 and this phone could be all yours.

Energy analysts see more price hikes ahead. Three-quarters of Americans drive to and from work (alone). So it makes sense that the average car-owner uses about 550 gallons of gas per year, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s most recent data. At a price of, say, $4-per-gallon, many of us are spending about $2,200 a year on gasoline. Until we’re all zipping in electric cars, the best way to economize (apart from driving less) is to make sure we’re getting the best price for gas.
To help you manage the rising price of gas, I recommend these three mobile apps that can help you find the lowest gas prices wherever you happen to be driving:
1) GasBuddy, available for free on BlackBerry, iPhone, Android, and Windows devices.
2) Fuel Finder, a $2.99 iPhone-only app that promises to save you about $300 a year.
3) AAA TripTik Mobile, a free iPhone and Android app.
If you don’t use a smartphone, you can get the same information by visiting Gasbuddy.com, autos.msn.com/everyday/gasstationsbeta.aspx, or gasprices.mapquest.com.
Each of the apps and websites work virtually the same: punch in the name of the city or town you’re in (or the zip code), and the app spits out a map showing the location of several nearby gas stations along with their current per gallon price for “regular” gas. When I entered my own zip code in New Jersey, MSN’s tool, for instance, displayed about 12 gas stations within a five-mile radius of my home. Prices at these local pumps ranged anywhere from a high of $4.08 to a comparatively cheap $3.69. Guess where I’m filling up next time the tank’s empty?
So imagine you chillin at the spot where you likes to chill and someone walks in and sits next to you at the bar. You notice that they have their phone out but you don’t pay much attention because everyone pulls out their phone nowadays, even when no one called or their inbox is empty. But what you don’t recognize is that they fooled around and snapped a pic of you! Before you might have just chalked it up as a fan or something, however I am here to tell you the stalking game has gotten that much sneakier!
So if you haven’t noticed we are in the middle of a take-over, a Google sized take-over. The likes in which we have never seen before; a company that started as a simple search engine has now become larger than life. Institutes onto itself; sort of like McDonalds, Kleenex, Q-Tips, etc, just say the one name and we all know what you are talking about. We now have phones running Google, maps that can show you on your porch chillin’, gps that can follow you as you move from to and fro, and some new email titled Wave, and now a computer operating system.
