Top Twitter and Facebook trends for 2010 revealed

<img src="http://cdn.mos.techradar.com///classifications/computing/internet-and-broadband/images/facebook-logo-angled-crop-200-200.jpg"> Twitter and Facebook have looked through their top trends for the year and come up with what is a decent representation of 2010, according to social networks. In the top spot for words that appeared on Facebook in 2010 is the acronym 'HMU'. Now, unless you are au fait with Bieber or know how to whip your hair, you may not know that HMU stand for 'hit me up' – as in contact me, not punch me in the face. <a href="http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=466369142130">Facebook's top 10</A> also has the 'World Cup' at number 2, 'iPad and iPhone' at number 3 and words relating to a variety of real world incidents, including 'Haiti' (5) and 'miners'. Interestingly, Facebook seems to be full of folks who don't like to live in the now as '2011' managed to slip into tenth place on the Facebook Memology list. Trending places <a href="http://blog.twitter.com/2010/12/hindsight2010-top-trends-on-twitter.html">Twitter's trend list</A> is a lot more consistent to the highs (and lows) of 2010. At number 1 is the 'Gulf Oil Spill', with 'Inception' and 'Haiti Earthquake' close behind. The World Cup bags three mentions in the list. 'Fifa World Cup' is at number 2, with 'Vuvuzela' at 5 and 'Pulpo Paul' – the octopus who predicted scores – at 10. Finally, the world was definitely a dark place in 2010 as internet-meme-cum-superstar Justin Bieber gets a mention in both the Twitter and Facebook lists. UPDATE Facebook UK has contacted TechRadar about the UK specific status trends for Facebook and it seems that us Brits prefer Wagner to HMU, David Cameron to Haiti and One Direction to Chilean Miners. The full UK top 10 is below: <UL> <LI>World Cup</LI> <LI>Wagner</LI> <LI>Cher</LI> <LI>Rooney</LI> <LI>One Direction</LI> <LI>British Soldiers</LI> <LI>David Cameron</LI> <LI>John James</LI> <LI>Tinie Tempah</LI> <LI>Celebrity Juice</LI></UL>

BlackBerry PlayBook pricing revealed

<img src="http://cdn.mos.techradar.com/classifications/computing/mobile-computing/Tablets%20and%20touchscreens/BlackBerry_PlayBook/official%20tablet%20angle-crop-200-200.jpg"> Pricing for the forthcoming <a href="http://www.techradar.com/news/mobile-computing/blackberry-playbook-what-you-need-to-know-719623">BlackBerry PlayBook</A> looks like it has been revealed - and it could be cheaper than the iPad. Mobility Insider, which was one of the first sites to get a hands on with BlackBerry's new tablet sidekick, is claiming that the prices for the new device will range from $399 (£250) to $599 (£380), depending on storage size. The new PlayBook, which looks likely to have a summer 2011 UK release date, will come in a variety of options, with 8GB, 16GB and 32GB on offer, for $399, $499 and $599 respectively, although other than that the specs will stay the same. Pricing roulette If the prices stay true when they cross the Atlantic, then it will put the BlackBerry PlayBook at around £100 cheaper than the equivalent Wi-Fi only iPad. However, it's likely to gain a premium through sales tax and other elements, but should still come in slightly cheaper than Apple's offering. We'll be keeping our eyes open for a sample of RIM's new tablet, and we'll hopefully bring you our BlackBerry PlayBook review in the new year.

Mario Andretti – as if you didn't already know – is one of the most iconic racing drivers, and has won races in Formula One, IndyCar and Nascar. Speedy Bearing in mind Google's focus on speed for Chrome OS, the name makes a lot of sense. The search giant is only looking to devices with solid state drives, which boot faster than traditional hard disk drives, because speed is very much the core tenet of the entire operating system. The first devices, which are likely to be netbooks rather than tablets, are expected to make an appearance early next year, with CES 2011 a likely venue.
