R.I.P. Google Wave

Anybody remember Google Wave? You don’t? Oh, well then, apparently you aren’t alone. Google announced that they are going to stop development on Wave.

Android Marketplace Hits 1 Billion Downloads

Congratulations to Google for reaching a huge milestone on the Android Market! The billionth app was downloaded today, a little more than a year and a half after launch.
