  Google’s corporate bios suddenly switched to Chinese this morning, the Guardian reports. It only affected users connecting from some areas, and the change was live only for a short amount of time, but the screenshots prove that Google may have indeed been hacked – again.
  The pages affected were http://www.google.com/corporate/execs.html. which lists Google’s top executives, as well as http://www.google.com/corporate/, which contains general corporate info about Google. Both pages were in Ch..   show all text

• When Do Twitter Users Sleep? [Apps] -
  mashable.com
  
  A website called SleepingTime.org analyzes any Twitter user’s tweets to figure out when he or she is most likely to be sleeping.
  All you have to do is plug a username into SleepingTime.org’s main page. It determines the user’s timezone from his or her location and looks at the times of day he or she is least likely to send out tweets. If there’s consistently a big block of dead air, it figures that must be when that user sleeps. It even estimates how much sleep he or she is getting.

  engadget.com
  We’ve been rumoring a WiMAX “HTC Supersonic” for a while now, and Sprint just dropped the hard news: the phone will be dubbed the HTC EVO 4G, will be released this Summer and it’s easily the best specced phone we’ve ever witnessed. The hardware is of quite obvious HD2 descent, but with Android onboard and some nice aesthetic tweaks, the EVO 4G takes on a life of its own. The handset is centered around a 480 x 800 4.3-inch TFT LCD, with a Snapdragon QSD8650 1GHz processor under the hood (the ..   show all text

  readwriteweb.com
  
  As part of our ongoing series in conjunction with Tableau Software and TweetStats, we’ve been looking at some of Twitter’s most influential users. What it means to be a “top” user on Twitter has changed a lot since 2007. Recently we found out that a high number of followers, which most people use to judge the popularity of an account, doesn’t actually really mean anything. However, Twitter lists – where we identify our favorites as “most influential” or “essential” – are still revealing. Tod..   show all text
