Twitter for Android updated with improved search, push notifications and new discover feature
Twitter has now unleashed their latest update to Twitter for Android though, the verdict is still out on whether or not it's for the better. Rather then just a bug fix release, this one introduces some improvements overall to the app. Search has been improved across the board so that it is now easier to find people you follow as you type, providing a better user experience for auto-completion. The discover tab has also been improved in the fact that Twitter has made particular trends and news articles easier to be found. To round it all off, Push notifications will now let you know when you've got a new follower or have been retweeted or favorited -- all of which can be enabled and disabled as do you so choose.

On Wednesday, as the world marked the 10-year anniversary of the death of TLC's Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, news broke that her former bandmates were planning a tribute of their own.
As first reported by TMZ, the two surviving members of TLC — Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas — are in the early stages of routing a reunion tour and they intend to make Left Eye a part of the show by projecting her image onto a screen and incorporating her vocals into live performances.
It's not clear whether TLC plan on using the same technology that two companies, Digital Domain and AC Concepts, employed to bring a hologram of Tupac Shakur to the stage at the Coachella Festival, or if the group will rely on archival footage of Lopes, who died in a car accident in Honduras in 2002 at the age of 30. Either way, the news only adds to the idea that, thanks to technological advances, deceased artists could soon be returning to a stage near you.
At a 2003 radio show — which was billed as TLC's final concert — the group paid tribute to Lopes by projecting images of her onto video screens. Watkins and Thomas have also subsequently performed a handful of shows, including a 2011 "American Idol" appearance that earned a standing ovation from the live audience.
According to TMZ, TLC have already booked dates in five major U.S. cities and more shows are currently being lined up. Reps for the surviving members of the group could not be reached for comment on the report, but Watkins addressed it on her Twitter account late Wednesday. In response to a fan's question about whether Lopes would be incorporated into a TLC tour, she wrote, "We don't know yet. We tried seven years ago; it was too expensive, but if the budget permits, we might."

Scalado Album launches for Android, we go hands-on (video)
Scalado just released Album, its first ever Android app to land in Google's Play store. The company -- which is best known for imaging technologies such as zero shutter lag, Rewind and Remove -- usually provides software to device manufacturers instead of end users directly. Album is billed as "a simple to use, high performance, photo/video viewer with a clean and smooth user interface" that handles pictures up to 200 (!) megapixels in size. The app costs $0.99 and is available for both smartphones and tablets. It features some interesting touches, like the ability to browse geotagged images using a map view.
We had the opportunity to take Album for a spin before launch and the app offers an intuitive and responsive user experience. Beyond organizing photos into the usual bins -- like the camera roll and the folders on your device -- the main screen lets you browse content by time (monthly) and location (including nearby). You can delete, share, rotate (in place) and crop pictures, plus display the file info and turn images into wallpaper. The grid view uses animated thumbnails for the videos and supports multiple selection. While not groundbreaking, Album is a solid app and the aforementioned map view is definitely worth checking out.
Take a peek at our gallery of screenshots below (from our HTC One X) and hit the break for Scalado's demo video and PR.

Report: Microsoft revealing Xbox 'Woodstock' music service at E3
We are stardust. We are golden. And we've got to get ourselves back to the Xbox. According to some anonymous-type sources over at The Verge, Microsoft is set to continue its shift away from Zuneland into the world of Woodstock -- that's reportedly the codename of a new Spotify-like service set to make its debut at this year's E3. According to the reports, the tiny yellow bird of a service will work across platforms (think Windows 8, iOS, Android and, of course, the Xbox, amongst others), thanks, at least in part, in part to browser-based functionality. The service is said to be set to launch later in the year, around the same as some key MS operating systems.
