If anyone was watching RTE recently, you might have come across some stuff about me releasing a sequel to PizzaBot, PizzaBot Season(ing)s for Mac and iOS.

Due to rising publicity, PizzaBot has risen In the ranks to become No.2 Top Game and No.3 Top App on the iOS App Store, with PizzaBot Season(ing)s reaching No.27 Top Game. They’re coming down a bit now, so if you could download them that’d be great!
Here are the download links for PizzaBot and PizzaBot Season(ing)s:

There’s a lot of hype about which smartphone to get for Christmas, with a similar amount of indecision: Most kids want a BlackBerry, but if I know anything, it’s that RIM (Research In Motion, creator of BlackBerry) is NOT hot at the moment. I mean, all their texting and email services went down for three days, and the only collateral they’re offering is an app. An app? Everyone knows BlackBerry apps suck. So a BlackBerry, in my opinion, is not the thing to ask for.

RIM’s BlackBerry OS has fallen behind, Nokia’s Meego and Symbian are gone, so that leaves us with three different Operating System’s to choose from: Google’s Android, Microsoft’s Windows Phone and Apple’s iOS.

About a month back, we had a similar contest between the same company’s Desktop Operating Systems, with Apple emerging the winner, Google close behind, and Microsoft dead last with 1 vote (HaHa!)

Every one of these smartphone operating systems are brand new out-of-the-box, with Apple’s new iOS 5, Google’s new Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and Microsoft’s new Windows Phone 7.5.

They also have new Flagship Smartphones, with Apple’s iPhone 4S on iOS 5, Samsung’s Galaxy Nexus on Android 4, and Nokia’s Lumia 800 (pictured) and HTC’s Titan on Windows phone 7.5.

Usually in my comparisons I try not to spark a World War III between geeks, so I do a poll. And that’s what I’ve got here. I can’t really express any favouritism, as iOS 5 is the only version of the new operating systems I’ve used, but back in the old days I always preferred Apple’s approach. So here is a general poll, which includes the older versions for anyone who hasn’t used the new ones yet. Happy voting!

“Apple has determined that, in very rare cases, the battery in the iPod nano (1st generation) may overheat and pose a safety risk. Affected iPod nanos were sold between September 2005 and December 2006,” the company wrote. “This issue has been traced to a single battery supplier that produced batteries with a manufacturing defect. While the possibility of an incident is rare, the likelihood increases as the battery ages.”

Basically meaning, you should get a replacement for your Nano now. And you can do just that by clicking the below link:

iPod Nano Replacement Program

Read the identifiers  and look at the images on the page to identify your iPod for replacement.

(You will need the iPod serial number in order to get a replacement)

If you can manage to pull out a distant memory of our poll about which is REALLY the best computer operating system (It must have been, what? A month ago?!) You’ll note there were 3 competitors: Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac, and Linux. The poll was about which was really the best operating system. You might have been pulling your hair out over this, but here is the winner at last:

YAAY for every Apple fan! The Mac is now, officially:

THE BEST OS! (Sorry, the picture’s a bit messy, but you get the point?)

If you want to know the poll results, here they are in order of size:

Mac: 50% (3 votes)

Linux: 33.33% (2 votes)

Windows: 16.67% (1 vote)

So there you are. Sorry Microsoft fans, but today’s not the day for you. Linux supporters, I didn’t know the OS was that popular! But likewise to Windows, you’ll have to wait for a victory.

But as for my fellow Apple maniacs, WAHOO! Beat that, Mr. Marshall! (Mr. Marshall is my teacher in school. He also holds the proud title of being the only person in the world to vote for Windows.)

So that’s that. I always thought Mac would win, being, um… BETTER and all that. But I’m still both surprised and delighted by Apple’s popularity.

Great voting, guys!

Anyway, I’ll post you when the app is published. Here is an image of what the app icon should look like:

Thanks for all the support.

I don’t know why Google has changed the old, hulk-like interface to one more reminiscent of symbiote spider-man, but I personally like the new theme. It has a more meant-for effect, like it was really built as well as the App Store (But don’t fool yourself people, it’s not.)
