The information may make a few of you happy while disappoint a few others. Nexus One is made to filter any profanity used. That is the speech-to-text recognition option doesn’t allow the user (speaker) to post out any swear words. As an alternative, the device converts those words into a group of #. Which means whenever you type a five lettered swear word, the device will show up your message something like this #####.

The reason for this is that in Android driven gadgets, speech to text recognition is yet not entirely flawless. The system can sometimes misrecognize the spoken word and give back some other word. Which may well cause confusion at the receiving side. And that is why Droid phone too has an identical difficulty (for some).

This is not the first time profanity is being blocked out, Zune HD is also doing the same thing with its twitter application. For those who  do not know what Zune is, it is a MP3 Player from Microsoft and it was first launched in the market in 2006. And just back in Dec, Zune came out with their twitter application which does not permit any swear word used.  This is one reason (including other) why not everybody likes their Twitter app.

Apart from this, among many Nexus functions that do not go down well with users is the four control keys at the lower end of the Nexus phone. Why ? because the buttons work only when top half of it is pressed, and this can be quite irritating. Furthermore, under the sun rays the phone display is not see-able. These are few of those flaws which users who have had hands-on encounter with Nexus informed.

And the no-profanity quality is in a way positive one. Though many of them will dislike Nexus One for being a civilized device. For more details read Nexus One Blocks Swear Word

Google Nexus had set up sensation even before it was released. Prior to its release, the discussion that Google was entering cell cell phone trade was something that didn’t go down properly with all. And just after introduction, the fact that Google Nexus turned out to be as expected and not a lot more than what Google devotees has predicted disappointed individuals. And now after days following the phone’s release, here is yet another problem – Nexus One’s copyright violation.

The name Nexus One is claimed to be copied from Philip K Dicks book ‘Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?’. The author’s daughter has gone to the press accusing Google of taking the name of the cell phone from her father’s book with out consulting them.

If the name is truly copied from the book or not is uncertain. Google definitely will deny the accusation. But the writer’s daughter seems to be unwilling to dissuade and not comply with Google. If the matter gets really serious, they could have to take the legal support. And if Google losses the case, a lump sum amount will have to be given towards the writer’s daughter (A lot could say, the situation is getting raised only to get hold of big money. Like Motorola had to pay to be able to use the name Droid). Google anyway these days is having difficulties from all sides – there is this Apple-Google conflict, Google is soon going to be from iPhone (Bing will be seen on iPhone), touch screen problem with Apple and what not. Looks like Google’s move into mobile phone market is causing a good deal of complications.

Sometime back Google was much like the King within the internet business (it even now tops) but with a lot of issues and dissapointments (with reference to Google Phone), tables may possibly turn really soon.

Let’s see how things go about and who wins.

The net provides different ways of being able to look for a person. Some of these ways are relatively simple methods like simple search engine search and some are more technical in nature like the reverse look up services. Apart from the sites that everyone is rushing to only to come away disappointed with no result there are some things that you could do find someone for free on the web.

No, the methods that I will mention here are not time consuming, there are just simple techniques meant to help those that have tried searching for someone on the free search sites and not come up with a result. One thing that you must know is that 90% of the people that have a profession will be part of a network that brings people of similar profession together. You should start looking here if you want to locate a person on the web at no cost at all.

One place that where a lot of professionals are meeting each other, sharing and exchanging ideas and even in some cases contact details is linkedin.com. This is a place where people acquire knowledge about updates about thing that influence their work, the latest news and how they can simplify their work. You can look for the person you seek in the appropriate category if you could become a member of this network.

Sometimes that s how easy it can be to find someone for free on the web. profnet.com is another place that’s almost the same in nature. The only difference is that it connects people on a wider level than linkedin.com. It connects people across professions.

If you want to find someone for free on the web then this is one place where you can do it from. You will find a whole list of professionals here, and the site will even trace bloggers. The odds are actually high to locate a person you seek from theses two paces as it has a couple of international directories.
