Pirate bay Moves Again

Pirate Bay has moved again. The popular torrent site has changed their domain, they are no longer on the .sx domain, now they are at .ac domain. This change is due to the domain name seizure that happened over night according to the Pirate Bay team.

So the site basically moved from one island to another. Because the previous domain was located Sint Maarten that is a Dutch protectorate. New domain is located on the Ascension Island in the South Atlantic Ocean, this island is controlled by the UK. British government however is not a fan of Pirate Bay, this site is blocked by all of their ISPs. So it looks like the famous torrent site might be moving again really soon.

Previously the sites owners were jocking how they were going to move their servers into space. Considering how much they have been moving the site lately space maybe the right option for Pirate bay.

Smartwatch from Nike in 2014

A new roomer from DigiTimes says that Nike is planing to launch a smartwatch in first half of 2014. Nike is already making wearable technology, FuelBand 2 was released short while ago. This is a product that is tracing you physical movement with the motion tracing technology. Nike competitor Adidas has already released their smartwatch, so this is not that unexpected.

Looks like the year 2014 is shaping up to be the year of the smartwatch. Every tech company and some others that are not in the technology market are looking to push their smartwatch next year. There are already many smartwatches out here like Pebble, Samsung Galaxy Gear, Sony smartwatch but none of them is making a big impact. So far nobody has been able to manufacture a smartwatch that is going to make a revolution i the tech industry.

Everybody is looking at Apple and their rumored iWatch to make this wrist technology popular, and become the next big thing. But there are many others companies interested in smartwatches like Microsoft, Nokia, Google and many more. So will just have to wait and see who will be able to "crack" this technology first and rule the market.

Nokia Dominates Windows Phone

Reports say that Nokia is dominating Windows Phone market. Well this wasn't really hard to guess, since they are the only company that is making only WP smartphones and have no interest in Android market. The other companies that are manufacturing WP smatphones are HTC, Samsung and Huawei. All three of these companies are more interested in Android. Samsung is currently dominating in Android market.

Just in case you forgotten Microsoft has recently bought Nokia, well not the entire company but their smartphone and tablet division. So the Lumia line of smartphones now belongs to Microsoft. It's still not known will they create a new line of WP smartphone or will they simply put the Microsoft logo on the Lumia smartphones. Surface smartphones have been rumored for some time but nothing has been officially confirmed.

As far as the stats go, Nokia is currently holding 90% of Windows Phone market. HTC is at 7%, Samsung at 1.8% and Huawei at 1.3%. Worldwide WP platform is at only 4%, but it has shown steady growth in last months, and in some markets like EU it's in double digits.

As for the smartphones the most popular in WP category are budget phones like Lumia 520. Flagship smarphones haven't had much success against competition from iOS or Android, but in budget smartphones WP is making an impact. This is mainly credited to the operating system, because on limited specifications WP is much faster and more responsive then the competition from Android.
