Sun is shining and we are getting closer to summer, my favorite time of year. Thank god it’s tech friday again and we can look what has happened in the Windows 10 universal app world. And if you didn’t know, Windows 10 is now running in 270 million devices and still growing.

During summer Windows 10 will get an update called Windows 10 Anniversay Update with lot’s more features and enhancements of which Windows Insiders are seeing already some of them in the new build 14316, which was published this week.

World of Fashion – the game for girls

wof-ajatuxiiWhy am I bringing this up? Well I am a proud father and my son has been the leading coder in creating this game. You can read more about the game here (in Finnish) and see the YouTubist Sleeping Beauty talking more about it (in Finnish).

But most of all, Toni, I am proud of you and hope the app will be big success.

As said, waiting for the Windows 10 Universal app version of it to hit another big market (270+ million) and to be even more successfull.

See the website and downlod the Android version. Coming soon th AppStore.

HP Spectre – the premium notebook

It’s the world’s thinnest laptop and one of the beautifulest ones I’ve ever seen. Just look at the video, but of course it comes with a price. Anyway it looks awsome and the specs are just right. Btw. look at the new HP logo for premium devices – simple but powerful.
