TinyLetter. The 12 Best Free Entertainment Services and Apps of 2012. Whether you consume it or create it, entertainment is likely a huge part of the reason you love tech.
You probably already have a subscription to big names such as Amazon Instant Video, Hulu Plus, or Netflix, and those are all good services, but they’re not free. Crackle, on the other hand, is totally free, and you can stream its offerings from just about every desktop computer, phone, tablet, Internet video streaming box, or modern game console. Crackle doesn’t have a huge selection of films and TV shows, but it does have some heavy-hitting movies and series such as Talladega Nights, The Professional, and Seinfeld.
Not sure what you want to watch? Sign up for MovieLens, an ad-free recommendation service set up by the University of Minnesota that uses your own ratings of flicks to predict new movies that you’ll enjoy. Then there’s Stitcher Radio, an iOS and Android app that allows you to listen to thousands of podcasts and live radio channels from your phone. Call, Text, Chat, Fax and More. One Place to Connect. Accessibility lost in the mobile app race. Managers in information and communications technology need to combat the ‘gold rush mentality’ that has caused mobile app developers to release products that are unusable for people with a disability, a report argues.
Released by the OneVoice for Accessible ICT Coalition, the report Moving together: mobile apps for inclusion and assistance presents a number of key issues facing the growing populations of older people and people with a disability when using mobile apps. Apps or applications are pieces of software that can be downloaded and installed on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Some mobile devices contain accessibility features that help older users perform tasks such as reading, typing and browsing the web. The assistive technologies included in the device will depend on what operating system it runs on, such as Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android. These features include text-to-speech technology, adjustable colour contrast and screen magnifiers.

I remember traveling to a local middle school with a researcher interested in how physical activity was taught in low-income Native American communities. Back then, the best we could do was have the children wear simple electromechanical pedometers to count their steps during their physical education classes. Fast forward about ten years and I’m still working with pedometers and physical activity sensors – but much better ones. Quantified Self toolmakers are experimenting with many upgrades to the old digital pedometers, including new ideas about syncing, more fashionable design, and – of particular interest to self-trackers – integration of optical heart rate monitors.

Below are some of the notable Quantified Self tools recently announced at CES. Fitbit Flex The Flex appears to be Fitbit’s answer to the growing trend of wrist worn wearable activity monitors.
