What to check out this week?



Yesterday, the stock market was doing well and we found several good deals online, but it gets boring after while. Earning money and saving a few bucks here and there is all great; however, I do feel we need to entertain ourselves with other exciting things to look for.

So, what is new?

Android OS is the king of tech news this week with Google's official live demo of the new Android Honeycomb and the new web-based android market today in Mountain View. If you search Honeycomb in Google News search, you will see what I mean. Here are few links from my favorite tech blog sites about these:

Why is this a good news?

Honeycomb OS is an android OS that is optimized for tablets and bigger screen devices. If in the coming years honeycomb tablets can take about 30% to 50% of the tablet market, we as consumers will benefit from the price competition among Apple and other brands. We can potentially get cheaper tablets with above average specs.

2011 is the year of tablets. This could potentially be great for investors and traders to take advantage of this trend to gain from the emerging tablet sector as well as the general semiconductor sector.


Update: The web version of android market is alive! Check it out. I have an Android device so I am excited to see this working today.
