Dolphins are cute if you ask me, just watch Flipper and you will see what I mean. What’s not very cute is this dead dolphin. It has two heads. Ewww. Conjoined anythings are rather disturbing.
It’s hard to tell the size of the two headed dolphin monster from this image but it’s said to be about 3.2-feet long and about 12 months old. It’s hard to believe that the creature survived that long in the wild.
Right now, we have no idea what organs exactly the dolphin shared, at least one of the creatures eyes are said to be not fully formed. The dead creature washed up on a beach in Turkey and will be studied by marine biologists. If we ever get attacked by two-headed sharks, it may be two-headed dolphins that save us all.

Dolphin Browser Supercharges Dolphin Connect, Introduces 1:1 Evernote Integration and One-Tap Sharing
SAN FRANCISCO - January 17, 2013 - Dolphin Browser, the most popular third-party smartphone browser, today unveiled an all-new version of its browser, souped up with Evernote Web Clipper integration, one-tap sharing and an enhanced Dolphin Connect.

One-tap Sharing
With one-tap sharing, Dolphin users can be more social than ever from within their browser. Users can instantly tweet content, post it to Facebook or share via email. Dolphin has even taken it one step further, allowing users on the same WiFi connection to broadcast any webpage to their friends.

We're moving beyond just browsing, and are focusing on how to make the entire mobile experience more seamless," said Yongzhi Yang, CEO of Dolphin Browser. "Streamlining how our users store, share, communicate and consume content across all mobile devices and social networks is a great first step, and we're excited to show you what else is coming in 2013."
Dolphin Connect

Evernote Web Clipper (Beta)
Dolphin is the first-ever mobile browser to fully integrate Evernote Web Clipper, allowing users to save web pages directly into Evernote without ever leaving Dolphin Browser.

The U.S. Navy’s Marine Mammal Program began in the ’60s. The idea was that dolphins and sea lions would help defend harbors, retrieve sunken equipment and, even identify mines for deactivation. Now they have changed their mind and they want robots to do the dirty work. This will leave many sea mammals without a job, having to collect fish treats on their own.
It’s an expensive program with its team of veterinarians and handlers. Robots can be repaired, whereas if a dolphin dies, it has to be replaced and retrained. Dolphins will be replaced by the Knifefish by Bluefin Robotics, which basically looks like a missile. It can operate continuously underwater for up to 16 hours – much better than a dolphin who needs to actually breathe, eat, poop and occasionally sleep.
The Knifefish will use sonar to hunt for mines and will be joined by other robots who will take over all of the mammal’s duties.
Honeywell's pulled back the curtains on its Dolphin 70e Black smartphone for folks in jobs where hardware needs to endure some rough and tumble. Pricing or detailed specs weren't revealed, but the handset packs a 4.4-inch capacitive touch screen, an area-imaging scanner, up to 12 hours of battery life, weighs in at 7 ounces and measures up at 0.75-inches thick. Boasting an IP67 rating on its resume, the phone is dust-proof and can survive a dunk in water. When the ruggedized device ships in February, it'll come pre-loaded with your choice of unspecified versions of Windows or Android.

Stop us if you've heard this one before: a company that wants to start using (or keep using) a Google OS strikes a patent licensing deal with Microsoft to avoid the legal barrage that will invariably follow if it says no. It's Honeywell singing the tune this time, and the company has reached an agreement that will let it use Android or Chrome OS on devices like a new edition of the Dolphin 7800 rugged handheld (shown here) without perpetually looking over its shoulder. Neither side is going into the specifics, although Microsoft has steered Honeywell into using its boilerplate copy about royalties trading hands. The truce won't help the prices of Honeywell devices; even so, it's good news for developers and customers who've been part of the company's official Android feedback program. We're still yearning for the day when we can get root access on a Honeywell thermostat.

The Dolphin browser has earned quite a following, by offering a healthy mix of speed and features. Now the company is opening up its offerings to further expansion though an open API service called Garage. The new portal opens up 150 APIs to third party developers who might want to build upon Dolphin's solid browser base, or integrate their web apps. As part of the launch of the Garage, four new add-ons have been added to the Dolphin repository. Dropbox, Evernote, Pocket and Wikipedia all now tie directly in to the browser's UI, exposing all the important features of those services.
