Remember that Google Translate update with real-time voice translation we heard about earlier this week? It's here for iOS and Android. The second big update is the integration of Word Lens. The Translate app already allowed you to take a picture of text and have it translated into one of 36 languages but you can now get instant translation. Pointing your camera at a sign will translate it while retaining the same typography. It currently works for translation from English to and from French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.

All the extended coverage of the Heartbleed flaw begs the question, “Are mobile devices affected by this?” The short answer: yes. The severity of the Heartbleed bug has led countless websites and servers scrambling to address the issue. And with good reason—a test conducted on Github showed that more than 600 of the top 10,000 sites (based on Alexa rankings) were vulnerable. At the time of the scanning, some of the affected sites included Yahoo, Flickr, OKCupid, Rolling Stone, and Ars Technica. . All the extended coverage of the flaw begs the question, “Are mobile devices affected by this?” The short answer: yes. . Mobile apps, like it or not, are just as vulnerable to the Heartbleed Bug as websites are because apps often connect to servers and web services to complete various functions. As our previous blog entry has shown, a sizable number of domains are affected by this vulnerability. .

YouTube is a fantastic way to keep your kids entertained with a tablet or smartphone, but it’s also a little concerning. You just never know if your child will end up using the suggested videos feature to jump from Sesame Street’s Elmo to a drunk Elmo parody, or view inappropriate advertising.
