what's happening Brian song here and welcome to the apple pie for all the good and bad inside the world of Apple now let's get to the stories and a few weeks ago rumors of a liquid metal iphone set the internet on fire but Business Insider spoke with one of liquid metals inventors atacan pecker and he says Apple is still three to five years away before we see it being used in a large scale now I feel a little bit relieved knowing that my iphone won't be trying to kill me anytime soon but pecker says it's a technology that still has to be matured and perfected he could see it being used for smaller components like a hinge or bracket for a macbook air but a casing like the heirs body will take several more years he still expects Apple to use it in a future breakthrough product but not anytime soon I know guys sometimes reality in the truth hurts especially in high school when no one ever asked you to a Sadie Hawkins dance even if you wanted to go all right now I know I might have shared a little too much there but apples hoping its employees won't have to worry about that after a request for a new off-campus restaurant was recently approved by the city of Cupertino to provide employees a place to eat and discuss company plans without fear of having their conversations over her or losing their prototype iPhones see this is a place truly where Apple drinks their own kool-aid now an iphone parts are known a part supplier has leaked what they claim to be the sim card slot tray to slash gear for the next iPhone there are minor differences in the design like a curve section before it gets to the metal edge but ultimately it looks like this part if believed to be true is pretty much the same size as the current one amazing now in apple patent use Apple is filed for series introductory sensory mark it's that sound consisting of a rapid two-tone repetition for the note C sharp when you hold the home button down it may be music to the ears of some of you but I'm still on the side of the fence where Siri is completely overrated it's still a beta product Apple is selling to people as a finished one and when it has to connect to its servers and they're down but you have no idea if they're down or not yeah you're screwed I'm still waiting to see someone actually talk to their phone in public like that but I haven't seen it and don't get me wrong people voice recognition is still a cool evolving tech foot I hope to be blown away by it at WWDC because it doesn't work the way we've been sold on it and that's a bad apple alright i'm getting off my soapbox and let's take a quick break with a cool app for transferring your photos from your phone to other devices easily and it's not email you smart asses now we all love taking pictures with our cameras but have you ever wanted to transfer photos wirelessly and quickly from one device to another well that's why you're still watching this and I have a couple of apps for both Android and iOS that will do the trick now you've heard of this first app called bump it's free it works cross-platform and allows you to send photos in contacts from one person to another if both people are using the app select the pictures you want give them a little bump and voila the pictures are received on the other end it's real world proof that Android and iOS can get it on but my personal favorite app to transfer photos is called photo transfer app that's the name the universal app on iOS costs 299 and it's 199 on Android now you might not like paying for apps but there are several key things that make it worthwhile you can still send photos from phone to phone cross-platform but what about sending pictures from your phone to view on a larger screen like your iPad this app allows you to do that you'll have to be on the same Wi-Fi network and you'll pick which device is the sender and which device is the receiver I like how it organizes your photo collection into groups of 100 to keep tracks of the ones you're sending and not only does it transfer photos but video clips as well you know bump they just can't do that now the other killer feature is you can also send your pictures or videos directly to any Mac Windows or Linux computer by going to an address on your web browser that the app creates for you bottom line photo transfer app is we're dropping the money for wow that was a really professional video done by that skunk hair guy thanks for that Brian all right in some quick bites Apple's latest update to OS 10 mountain lion adds a Do Not Disturb feature for notifications that you can toggle at the top to block incoming alerts and messages the feature is activated with a moon logo and this could be something we might even see integrated into the much anticipated iOS 6 at WWDC also cloud computing is kind of a big deal in 2012 and amazon has released a cloud drive app for mac and windows that gives you access to their online storage space and lets you drag and drop files in the finder also spotify long-awaited ipad app is finally here supporting the retina display and their 18 million song catalog you'll need a premium subscription to use the app after a free trial period but more importantly I hope none of you dance like those people at least in public and guys you know the Apple by we like to stay abreast of the news the following contains scenes that are intended for a mature audiences only and contain scenes that some viewers may find disturbing like Brian tongs nephew especially with this iphone carrying bra called the Joey bra it was created by to University of Washington students and they claim it can hold an iphone along with your ID credit cards keys and boobs now I personally don't have any use for this but it's really a wonder to hold
