- iPhone 101: Change your default search engine
Filed under: iPhone, iPhone 101
We're not kidding when we say that Apple and Google have developed a close relationship. When you tap the iPhone Safari address bar, a screen opens offering both a keyboard and a search field. By default, this field is tied to Google. When empty it says Google in dim gray letters. When you start to type in text the Go button changes to Google.
But there's a way around that.
You can use Yahoo rather than Google as your search provider. From your Home screen, go to Settings > Safari. The first setting lets you choose whether to use Google or Yahoo as your search engine. When set to Yahoo, both that gray text and the search button change from Google to Yahoo, as well as your searches.
I'm not entirely sure why people might prefer Yahoo to Google, still it's good to have a choice.

Filed under: Apple Corporate, iTS
Following on the heels of the Universal Music/iTunes rift, NBC/Universal has declined to renew its iTunes contract according to the NY Times. The current deal is due to expire this December. 1500+ hours of NBC Universal content, including The Office and Heroes, will remain on iTunes until that time. So what happens after December? Between now and then, the two parties may return to the negotiating table--or they may not. Seems to me that iTunes sales have got to be putting some money in NBC/Universal's pocket. iTunes almost singlehandedly turned The Office into a hit, allowing people to catch up and join in with its episode backlog. To quote our own Scott McNulty, this continues the trend of content providers trying to "show their might and put Apple in its place."

Filed under: Analysis / Opinion, Cult of Mac
Reader Marc sent us pictures and video of his "Apple garden," which appears to be a large Apple logo on his spacious lawn in Jersey, just off the coast of France. At first I thought it was just a cutout of the grass, but his picture gallery shows that it's growing, so it must be seeded that way. Interesting. Does whoever plays (is that lacrosse?) on the field mind?
Marc also tells us the airport is nearby, and so he says it's something for travelers to look at as it goes by. He's planning to do a flyby with a paraglider, and maybe even some timelapse footage of the thing growing. Cool stuff. For some reason, I can't help but think of crop circles while looking at this, and that makes me think of Close Encounters: "This... means something."Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:
