Yo, Hodor is an app to talk like Hodor with your friends

If you’ve been watching Game of Thrones, you probably know the character Hodor. He is a servant of the Stark family that has some sort of speech impediment and could only say one thing – Hodor! A parody of the app Yo! which does nothing else but send a “Yo!” alert to your contacts, Yo, Hodor offers the ability to communicate with your friends in a way that only a true Hodor-ist (Hodor-ian?) would understand.

Hodor.

Hodor.

When you have the app, you must first add contacts in order to be able to Hodor them. In turn when someone Hodors you, you get a push notification along with a “Hodor!” sound clip. That’s pretty much what the app does. It’s one of those things you download that are so much fun, but really has no point.

Yo, Hodor! is free for download at the App Store. Though it’s still exclusive to Apple users, programmer Tyler Hedrick is looking forward to releasing an Android version soon.

Season four of Game of Thrones has just ended, and it’s a bit of a long wait until the next season arrives. Maybe we can just Hodor each other until the wait is over and we can finally see more episodes…and more of Hodor, of course!

Globe claims 100% 3G coverage, 4G/LTE in 3 months

Yesterday, Globe Telecom boasted the fruition of their recent efforts (not to mention investments) in expanding their network’s reach in the country. In the press conference, Globe President Ernest Cu stated that the Ayala-led telco now has 100% coverage for 3G and is looking to do the same feat for 4G/LTE in the next 90 days.

Globe

According Ernest Cu, Globe Telecoms will be spending up to USD200 million, or a third of the telco’s 2014 capital expenditure budget (USD600 – 650 millon) this year for the modernization of their network infrastructure.

Globe’s network upgrades this year involve laying out additional fiber optic cables spanning to 9400 kilometers, and increasing the number of cell sites in the country, which is expected to reach at least 6500 by the end of the year, 700 of which are 4G/LTE cell sites.

“Our transformation journey does not end with the 3G and 4G technologies. We will continue to improve our network’s infrastructure to accommodate our customers’ fast-paced digital lifestyle needs,”

- Ernest Cu, CEO of Globe Telecoms

In line with his statement above, Cu mentioned that Globe plans to allot roughly the same amount of money (USD100 – 200 million) next year to fuel the telco’s effort to further enhance the service through network upgrades.
