Angry Birds Rio Coming to an Android App Market Near You

The new version of Angry Birds called Rio, which is due out in March isn't really based on the 20th Century Fox movie Rio due out in April. The two are similar in the fact that the cast are birds. Rovio and 20th Century Fox saw an opportunity to team up, and combine their bird themed entertainment into a fun adventure for everyone. This means for both movie goers and game players. If you happen to be both then there's twice as much fun in store. Angry Birds Rio will offer 45 new levels of game play based around the characters and events in the new movie Rio.


Those of you readers addicted to the game Angry Birds, myself included, will be pleased to welcome another edition of Angry Birds with more levels to master. Angry Birds is an incredibly fun way to waste your time, I mean pass the time. 


I've included two trailers below. The first is the Angry Birds Rio Trailer. It's meant to show us how the Angry Birds got to Rio, and got mixed up with the characters in the film Rio. The second trailer is the actual 20th Century Fox movie Rio. I enjoyed them both.

Google Android 3.0 Honeycomb Event February 2nd

Tomorrow will be a very sweet day for Honeycomb, as Google is holding a Press Event. Along with the unveiling of Honeycomb there may also be a few more surprises. The rumor mill is churning and it says Google will announce their online Android Market, and cloud-based music service, Google Music.

Honeycomb is very different from previous versions of Android, and specifically geared for use on tablets. It would only make sense for Google to unleash new services within Honeycomb. 

With the online version of the Android Market users will be able to search for apps via their computers, and download them directly to their phone. This sounds great, but not the most talked about service that we really can't wait to see...Google Music.

Much like the online Market, users can shop for music, and have it downloaded immediately to their phone. If you don't have enough room on your device's SD card, you don't necessarily have to download any music to your phone. You can access your home computer's music library using the Google cloud-based service.

Oh, I can't wait to hear the news to be released at the Honeycomb Event tomorrow. If all these predictions come to light, it will make owning a tablet a lot harder to wait for. I hope they soon start making some of these great Android tablets available for purchase. 

Oh, have you seen the Blue Bee Honeycomb Icon yet? It's wicked cool! Take a peek below.
