CHART OF THE DAY: Android Users Are Bigger Data Hogs Than Anyone (AAPL, GOOG, T, VZ)
Remember when people would talk about AT&T's network being crushed by iPhone users and all the data those users needed for websites and apps? And people would say that's why AT&T's network was so weak?
Well, we never heard those complaints about Verizon when it got a bunch of Android users. And it turns out Android users are bigger data hogs than anyone else, including iPhone users, according to Nielsen.

What's Killing Your Wi-Fi?
Barence writes "PC Pro has taken an in-depth look at Wi-Fi and the factors that can cause connections to crumble. It dispels some common myths about Wi-Fi problems — such as that neighboring Wi-Fi hotspots are the most common cause of problems, instead of other RF interference from devices such as analogue video senders, microwave ovens and even fish tanks. The feature also highlights free and paid-for tools that can diagnose Wi-Fi issues, such as inSSIDer and Heatmapper, the latter of which maps provides a heatmap of Wi-Fi hotspots in your home or office."

(Founder Stories) Gilt’s Kevin Ryan—It Is All In The Presentation (TCTV)
Chris Dixon wraps his Founder Stories interview with Gilt Groupe’s CEO and Founder, Kevin Ryan by discussing the early sales strategy of Gilt - a strategy that was designed to build customer and brand loyalty, but not the bottom line, at least initially.
Revisiting the launch period around four years ago, Ryan says, "we were going to make $4,000 for us on a sale and I spent $7,000 on the photo shoot, and you would say that is not a good business model, but what happened was the brands loved it, the customers loved it ... and so now we sell $100,000, $200,000, $300,000 .... on a sale."

LEAKED PHOTO: Is This Google's Next Nexus Phone? (GOOG)
A leaked photo of what is supposedly a test model of Google's next Nexus phone started circulating today after the blog Tech Hog claims to have snagged it from an inside source.
The photo has since been removed from Tech Hog, but we managed to snag a copy here.
The phone has no room for the four home keys found on other phones, which leads us to believe the next version of Android, Ice Cream Sandwich, will have on-screen controls.
It's highly unlikely this is the final model of the Nexus 3, but Tech Hog said in its original post it was being developed by HTC. (HTC developed the original Nexus One phone.)
