Microsoft Launches The Scroogled Campaign To Raise Awareness About The Bad Things Of Google Search, They Never Stop Trying

Microsoft is at it again with their campaigns and this time it is a campaign called scroogled. As the name is you might have found out that it has something to to with google, and yes it does. This holiday campaign will reveal the bad things google are doing. Click here to see the site. 

You see, Google recently pulled down its “product search service” and replaced it with a “paid listing ads” service. Search for “Canon EOS” in Google Shopping and you receive pages that look like the old days, with “results” down the middle and ads mixed in. But the “results” are also ads. Every product offer within the shopping search results on that page paid to be there, and where and how high they appear is at least in part dependent on how much they paid. Meanwhile, at least one of biggest online retailers refused to pay Google’s new fee, so you won’t see any of their product offers and great holiday deals in shopping results.

[REVIEW] AdBlock Plus For Android, A Solid 7/10

The ad block plus app has finally landed on android and this is our full review of the app. First up you can download the app from the Google Play Store, the app is free and yes there is no ads in the app. This app however will only block ads via wifi for non rooted devices, but for rooted device the app will block ads over wifi and 3G. Other than that the app does everything the developers states there at the app page. Here below is some examples of what adblock can do for you when browsing the web on your phone. 

So far i have been using the app for the past afternoon and there are some places where i am really frustrated with. First up is that the app is still not yet stable and in my time of use it crashed 3 times. Another thing is that it was unable to block the ads of some of my apps but when dealing with ad blocking on the browser it worked like a charm. The third thing i feel a bit uneasy with is the icon which stays on the notification bar, don't get me wrong on this its just that i like to have my taskbar as clean as possible and if the icon stays on the notification bar it often means it is draining battery in the background. These were just the problems which i am facing but other than that the app works very well in blocking the ads for coming in. 

Finally i reached the verdict and gave this app a 7/10 score as being a very good performing app but there is still room for improvements. Read the whole scores below, this is also a 4 star app.

Outlook.com Reached 25 Million User Mark In Less Than 4 Months

Earlier this year Microsoft launched the Outlook.com email service and this will eventually replace the existing hotmail email service. Outlook.com is really a redefined version of hotmail with a touch of the modern UI style with bright and block colors. With that said outlook.com managed to go from zero users to 25 million users in under 4 months. Microsoft's study also found that 4 out of 5 Gmail users wanted to switch to outlook.com after just spending 5 days with it. Personally i have been using Outlook.com for nearly 3 months now and i found the overall experience very good but sometimes the page tends to load pretty slow. The spam filter on the service is ultimately better than the one on Gmail based on my findings. With this goal reached the Redmond team has released an android app for it.
