The Hits and QUICKBYTE

The Hits

Night Stand

The digital clock features a customizable alarm with snooze function, time zone support for travelers and vintage graphics. It took a month to create it.

SnakeXT
This is an extreme version (extreme as in visuals, music and excitement) of the classic ‘Snake’ game. The game developed over three months, comes in two variations – Arcade and Challenge. Arcade packs in 28 levels of excitement. The game begins easily, but as one masters each level by collecting pellets, the landscape changes. Challenge consists of two tough levels where the user has to move around in an increasingly confined area without crashing into the walls or running into the snake’s tail.

QUICKBYTE

  • The popular social networking site Facebook is now available in six Indian languages Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali, Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam
  • Bit.ly has upstaged TinyURL as the most popular URL shortener, becoming the default on the micro blogging site Twitter.
  • Princes William and Harry are to appear with a large frog in a YouTube film for their father, the Prince of Wales’ environmental crusades
  • Google has hired herds of goats to mow the lawn at its Mountain View headquarters because “it costs us about the same as mowing, and goats are a lot cuter to watch than lawn mowers.”
  • Blackberry Curve has finally outsold the iconic iPhone in the US, as Apple fans suspended buying decisions in anticipation of iPhone 3.0 this summer.
