Just received an email from Google confirming that Google Health has now been officially shutdown. Google announced in June 2011 that Google Health and Google Power were slated to be retired. While this may seem like old news, the deadline for downloading your data is Jan 1 2013. If you used this app in the past and have not downloaded your information, be sure to download your data before the 1st.

After reading the very informative and interesting article "The checkered, slow history of Android handset updates" (two thumbs up). It had a different effect on me. Rather than, frustrate me, or cause me to cuss at the lack of frequency for Android OS updates. I found myself amazed that we are able to have a conversation about hardware manufacturers providing complete OS updates for a Linux based Android device. It also caused me to see an interesting parallel, and left me asking can we change this? If so how?
