Google

Leo says that Google has decided to kill this portal, but there are other choices.

• Netvibes

This is one that Leo likes, but it looks to be shifting to a pay portal.

• Protopage

Leo loves this as well and would recommend it as the go-to app for this.

• Bing

The chatroom says this is customizable.

The Notes app on iOS can now sync to Google automatically, but this can be disabled in settings.

All authenticators are doing the same thing. It's a time-based, one-time use pass code. There's no data going back and forth between the authenticator app and Google, they are just both using the same algorithm to generate the code based on the time of day. Since no one knows that algorithm, it's not possible to figure out that code. They use a "one-way hashing" technique to do this. Just because the user has the 6-digit result on the authenticator does not mean anyone could go backwards to figure out what the key is.

Leo says that Google is at fault here, not the carrier. Google Wallet right now doesn't support the Galaxy S III, but that will change quickly. Meanwhile, there is something on XDA Developers that may work around that limitation.

Mark has a ton of mp3s and he wants to put accurate ID3 tags on them. He's used iTunes Match for his songs which adds the ID3 tags, but they aren't accurate. Leo says that Media Monkey is better than iTunes Match and it's far more accurate. It'll give album art in addition to ID3 tags. The tag editor is easy to use and he can do it by batch as well.

Mark's daughter is heading to Europe as a foreign exchange student. Mark is wondering whether or not he should get her an iPad or a Nook for book reading. Leo says not to get a Nook, but the $79 Kindle will work just fine. The new Google Nexus 7 is also great bargain at only $200.

Leo says he's a big fan of Android Tablets, they've definitely come of age. But it's hard to compete with the Google Nexus 7 for only $199.
