Spotify previews overhauled Android app

We'll be the first to admit that we were a little disappointed when yesterday's "special announcement" turned into a bit of a Coca-Cola / Spotify lovefest. And while it's not the iPad app that many iOS music lovers have been clamoring for, Android users have a Spotify-related reason to rejoice this morning. The service's app is getting an overhaul for Google's mobile OS, a full redesign that includes, among other things, full support for Ice Cream Sandwich. Also on the Android docket are new navigation, added social features and hi-res artwork. The app is currently available as a preview. Spotify's promising even more features -- like Last.fm scrobbling -- before it hits the Google Play store. No word yet on exactly when that might be.

Update: You can now give the preview a run for yourself, provided you're on Spotify Premium. Hit up the source link for the download.

Microsoft updates SkyDrive with support for ODF, Twitter

There's no day like today for the titans of tech to beef up their respective clouds with abandon. First, Google went and updated Chrome's Cloud Print with the convenience of FedEx and now Microsoft's taking a spin at the remote wheel, enhancing its SkyDrive service with support for ODF (Open Document Format) -- an XML-based file type for documents and spreadsheets -- and an increased browser upload cap of 300MB. Twitter also gets a nod or two in this feature refresh, as users entrenched in Redmond's ecosystem will have the ability to share to the social service, in addition to sending out shortened image links. We'd normally advise you to check out the release for more info, but the tech company's kept this missive short and sweet. See for yourself at the source below.

The Situation to Get Comic Book Treatment

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's ... The Situation.

According to Wizard World Inc., the Jersey Shore star has signed a publishing, development and appearance deal to create and publish a comic book based on Sitch.

"MPS Entertainment and I are thrilled about our new relationship with Wizard World. I grew up reading comic books and now I get a chance to star in my own. I can't wait for everyone to see what we are working on," said Sitch, a.k.a. Mike Sorrentino.

We know, we thought this was a joke at first too.

Added John Macaluso, the CEO of Wizard World:

"Wizard World is excited to partner with one of pop culture's greatest stars. Mike will broaden our relationships with celebrities to new areas that leverage our access to the media, the fans, and especially our ability to bring comic book characters to life."

The series of comic books based on stories by Mike and his family will be written and drawn by some of the comic book industry's leading artists and writers.

You can even catch the soon-to-be illustrated family on tour, as they are slated to appear at several Wizard World conventions to promote their characters.

No word on whether Mike's super powers will entail the ability to survive with BAC over 0.5 or extreme tendencies to stir up drama where there is none.
