Have you ever been in a Apple Store, no not one of those in the malls, but a real stand alone Apple Store, like the 5th Avenue or the Regent Street Store.
Theses stores are out of this world shopping experiences, they are amazing, just the whole concepts from light to the wood tables it’s amazing.
Now apple are launching a new store design, i prefer calling it tube design, as the stores will have huge glass ends like the picture below, it’s the new Apple store in Scottsdale, Arizona, and it’s Apparently only the first in a row of 100 store that are going to be build/remodeled to this new design

Apple have always been a special company, they have a tendency to do thing just a little different compared to other technology companies.
Apple works as a clock work, in that respect that certain products have clear life cycles, these life cycles are repeated again and again, each product have each there own life cycle, some long as the desktops with there 2 year life cycle and other short like the iPod 6 month update cycle.
Like the iPod lines[1. Wikipedia] they all have a tendency to get a major updated in September of the 19 bigger iPod line updates, 10 of them have been in September. 4 of the most resents updates have been in September.
Additionally 3 other updates have been in October.
the iPod have a 6 month update cycle, introducing a new generation in September/October, and a memory or color update in April.
The iPhone on the other hand seems to have a 1-year life cycle[4. TechCrunch], if we can trust the apple calendar we should get a new iPod with in 2 weeks, that time frame happen to contain the WWDC[2. Apple] which is Apples Worldwide Developers Conferences.
The Apple keynote is scheduled to June 8[3. Ars Technica], I wonder if we will se a iPhone there…
I study finance so it ought to be somewhat easy for me to valudate aka. Set a price on the value of the different social networks.
But apparently the are many unknowns factors, like always, the future is unknowns, but when also the income model is unknown it suddenly becomes a really big problem to put a value on a social network.
Users:

Techchrunch have tried to combine all the information we have about the large social networks, together with all the investors information the could find, from that information they made this circle diagram

It may just be the most complex name for a search engine that the world will ever see, Wolfram Alpha is a new search engine but it’s not you typical search engine like google or bing. The special thing about Wolfram Alpha is that it’s made as a machine that can answer questions, like “Taylor series of sin^3(x)“, “caffeine vs. aspirin” “population France/Germany“and it will even give you a complete source list.
It’s amazing, i’m just never able to remember the name Wolfram Alpha so every time i need it i have to use google to search for it.
