Fast Company has an interview with none other than Chad Ochocinco, receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals who makes as much of an impact on online pop culture as he does on the football field (perhaps more so). He wants to get rid of Farmville. ComputerWorld reports on a new Apple hire, Benjamin Vigier. The hiring, CW blogger Jonny Evan says, confirms that the iPhone 5 will be the "iWallet". There's an interesting piece at MacWorld about how smartphones are on the verge of becoming more powerful as chip makers ready dual-core chips for them. Agam Shah with IDG News Service writes, "Phone makers havenât officially announced plans to put dual-core chips in smartphones, but the chip makers are getting ready. Qualcomm has already shipped its first dual-core processor, the MSM8660, and is due to start sampling a faster dual-core chip, the QSD8672, later this year. Texas Instruments is scheduled to ship a dual-core chip, the OMAP4430, later this year, and it could reach devices early next year."
