Report: Google to Combine Android and Chrome OS - Thurrott.com. I think Google is going to screw the pooch with this move. Chrome OS has been growing in acceptance, particularly in the education market, because of its low support requirements. Android is a heavier operating system than Chrome meaning it is going to require more support. I also find Android to be more buggy than Chrome OS. Dumping Chrome OS could mean Google loses the education market. #

Turtl: A totally private personal database and note taking app. Following because I support the idea of a fully secure note taking application that encrypts your data before uploading to the server on the Internet. From what I can tell it is an open source project being written by one person who appears to be heads down on an Android version. The application does not have a way to export notes that you put in to it, so for now I don't consider it "production" but very much worth following. #
