Adobe Issues Security Warning About Flash Player 10.3

  Adobe issued security warning for user's, those using Flash Player 10.3 on their phones need to make sure that they have downloaded the latest version of the application. Because the security of the program has been compromised, make sure that version 10.3.185.23 is on your handset and if not, head over to the Android Market and install it. The software developer is saying that if you visit a malicious web site, you could receive emails designed to trick you into clicking on a "malicious link".

 We can imagine Apple CEO Steve Jobs leaning back in his office chair with a self satisfied look on his face. Nonetheless, once the latest version of Adobe Flash Player 10.3 is installed on your Android phone, your device is safe-for the time being. Back in April, we reported that a similar security problem was found in Adobe Flash Player 10.2, and with the app's widespread use on Android devices and its vulnerability to being hacked, this might not be the end of the problem.

Google Introduced Live Transit to Mobile Maps

 Google Maps has become pretty much a standard for mobile mapping applications as Android is rising in market share with a pace of some 400,000 each day, and that's why the addition of Live Transit to the service is more than welcome. As you'd expect, Google Maps Live Transit adds live information about the schedule of local public transportation, so even if the bus/train is late, you can still be informed about the actual time of its arrival:

 Google introduces Live Transit to mobile Maps

“When you click on a transit station or plan a transit route with Google Maps and there are delays or alerts related to your trip, you’ll now see “live departure times” (indicated with a special icon) and service alerts.”

 Beginning now, the service will be rolled out to cover the public transportation system of Boston, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, as well as the European cities of Madrid and Turin. Google states that it will be working closely with the public transportation systems of other cities, so we hope that list will get updated soon. So while this might not make a world of a difference for motorists, it's a great tool for the rest of the bus-riding public. Check out the video below with all the fine details.
