Turn Your Nook Color into a Full Android Tablet…The Easy Way

Hey hey people!  So I haven’t posted anything in a while but, tonight I felt like posting a little somethin’ somethin’.  So, all of you Nook Color people out there may enjoy this little bit of goodness I found the other day.

If you have had your Nook Color for a little while and have that feeling that it can do much more than it is telling you….then you are right.  That thing actually has the potential to be a full fledged Android tablet.  That means you get access to the Android Market and yes, even Angry Birds.

To unlock this amazing technology used to mean defiling your poor Nook Color by rooting, voiding warranty, and potentially bricking it if you didn’t do something right.  Now your worries are over.  Nook2Android has come up with a magical solution that allows your Nook Color to keep its dignity and stick to its roots whilst unlocking the inner power and potential without rooting.  This is a legit way to get everything you could ever want, and more, without voiding that warranty and without any deceitful trickery.  And the best part is, it’s so easy anyone can do it.  There is no need to hack into the Nook Color mainframe and digitally change the software code and alter the CPU and RAM frequencies.

It is as simple as putting in a Micro SD card and turning it on.  From there you can choose to boot into the normal Nook Color mode or into the CynagenMod 7 version of Android 2.3 with full access to all of the goodies Android has to offer.  It does not change anything on your Nook Color because everything is run off of the Micro SD card.  It is all explained on the Nook2Android website.  There you can choose from a magical 8gb, 16gb, or a 32gb micro SD card containing said magic costing $34.99, $49.99, and $89.99 respectively.

Now click on over to Nook2Android.com and rest that troubled mind of yours.   It’s not a hard decision anymore.  You need a Micro SD card anyway.  You might as well get one that has a little power unlocking magic included.  You may rest easy now.

Free Android App Every Day

Hello all!  I dedicate this post to all my fellow Android users out there…HAY YO!  OK, now that I got that out of the way, on to business.  This may not be something new to everyone out there but, it was to me.  I am sorry if I am a little behind on this one.  But if you have an Android device then I am sure you download apps from the Android Market.  But did you know that Amazon has an Android App Store as well?  Now the Amazon Android App Store is not new information but, the fact that they give away a free app every day is new to me!  And by giveaway, I mean they take an app that usually costs money and they make it free for one day for your downloading pleasure.

Today’s free app is Delicious – Emily’s Taste of Fame.  Now this may not be an app that is going to get you running to Amazon’s Android App Store today but, I would suggest checking it every once and a while.  You never know what tomorrow will bring.

Google+, the new Facebook?

The do everything, conquer the world, Google that we know and love is now going to try and take on Facebook.  Most of the items Google has tackled have turned out pretty good.  They have email, office, web, mobile and a lot more.  But something they haven’t been so good at is Social Media.  But maybe that is all about to change.  Take a look at this tour of the new Google+.  It will give you a pretty good idea of what its all about.  If you are still interested and want to know a little more, take a look at Engadget.com’s hands-on review of it.  They were able to get an invite from Google to be a tester.  Check it out and let us know what you think.
