Blackberry vs iPhone

Blackberry has been the smart phone of choice in the enterprise for some time. With reasons that attract many people and satisfy people's wants. Such as, mastering most of the business app, bbm (blackberry messenger), e-mail, and controls with all the controls that IT requires. Blackberry is also made from our home country CANADA! Every year, there is new models that comes out for different types of Blackberries. There is seven types of Blackberry out to date.

BUT enter the iPhone.

It has video call, multitasking device, HD video, face time,many free apps, 5 mega pixels, front camera, HDR photography, and built in LED flash. This not only won the heart of new trend ,but won the heart of media related field.

So my question is, what ultimately wins in the enterprise?

About 36 million Blackberry devices is used globally, half of which enterprise is connected, Blackberry has about 17million to 18million device lead on the iPhone in the enterprise. Hundreds of organizations around the world have 5,000 or more Blackberry devices, and a bit over 50,000! So that means that Blackberry has set the basic standard for reliable and secure mobility.

So with that in mind, customers still want choice, and that means the enterprise mobility door is open for other people to choose. IPhone has a faster CPU than Blackberry and more memory capacity. In everyday use, though, iPhone's slightly larger capacity makes no noticeable difference. Both machines instantaneously respond to users' commands. Competitions between batteries also ends up in fist fights! Both machines will run on battery alone for approximately three hours in constant use, and will keep going between ten and twelve hours just idling. When iPhone first hit the marker, Blackberry devotees argued iPhone could not stand-up to the dangers and demands of rigorous everyday use. Blackberries admittedly take a beating, because their developers has corporate road warriors in mind as they designed the machines.

And now I guess it's your turn now, to pick which side you want to take.
Blackberry vs iPhone

Friday. REALLY NOW???

Friday by Rebecca Black.

I KNOW there has been so much hate on this song and the young girl herself...but I really can't seem to help myself.
In earlier years there has ALWAYS been the trend of letting the audience listeners know what day of the week it is.  Ive never understood why its necessary to let us know that Saturday and Sunday follow after Friday. I'm fairly certain EVERY teen at least knows this for obvious reasons stated clearly in the song itself.

The overall message of the song is not bad. I get it. Fridays ROCK.

Really.

They do.

But I have a few problems with this song.
Other than the fact that her voice is overly auto tuned and not to mention REALLY monotone which is slightly sad because there are videos of her singing without...and she is actually quite decent.

Really, that's the only problem I have with Rebecca Black directly.

The Lyrics...were done by another. 

The Lyrics...

 HORRIBLE.

My biggest problem...is the music video.
Its not really her fault for its turn out though.
They people who directed it should have payed more attention to her age, the law and basic entertainment ideas when making this video.

Lets look at the video:

At the beginning she is getting up...she wakes up with makeup on? 

I'm sorry...but your supposed to take that off before you go to bed.

People don't wake up in dark eyeliner and mascara that barely looks touched! 
If your going to do makeup for a morning scene...try more natural makeup so it doesn't look so odd to the viewers...

Then she heads down stairs while singing about eating cereal

"7am, waking up in the morning
Gotta be fresh, gotta go downstairs
Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal
Seein’ everything, the time is goin’
Tickin’ on and on, everybody’s rushin’..."

BUT

despite eating and rushing around you see her do NEITHER.

She just stands there.

No cereal.

No movement.


Then she is at her bus stop and her friends role up in a car...

"Gotta get down to the bus stop
Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends (My friends)

Kickin’ in the front seat
Sittin’ in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?"

cool. Driving to school...cruisin' along. SCREEEEEEEECH.

HOLD UP.
OKAY.
THIS IS WHERE LAWS START TO GET BROKEN.

You and your friends are thirteen.  THIRTEEN.

YOU CANT LEGALLY DRIVE.

So technically...they are showing her and her friends doing something that is very illegal...even in the state of California which is where she is from and where this was shoot.

And besides....does it really matter where you sit as long as your in the car????

Another two that are illegal...
NO ONE IS WEARING SEAT BELTS.
and
THEY ARE SITTING ON THE BACK OF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING.

Another law broken.  Ouch.

Then  they start talking about partying and they are at a house party
"Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Partyin’, partyin’ (Yeah)
Fun, fun, fun, fun
Lookin’ forward to the weekend"

At the age of 13...how much House partying did YOU do?

Would your parents let you DO that or HOST that?

Oh no.

I personally find that inappropriate to show in a video made by someone who is 13 years old.

I understand that its very common to want to be treated older than you are and to be like one of the 'cooler' older kids but driving illegally and house parties at the age of thirteen is really pushing it.

In the end, I dont beleive it's entirely Rebecca's fault of the failed music video...she really was just having fun.  But I do believe that the directors of the video should have really payed attention to how the video will possibly be taken as well as the laws and age of Rebecca herself.
