When did the Nokia Store webpage get a redesign? I just noticed after it was mentioned by Farhan at Sense Applied. More apps are shown per page and the navigation bar was moved to the left side. I like it!
Episode 2, Nokia Weekly News October 8-14th
This is episode 2 of The Nokia Blog’s Weekly Nokia News. Lots of stuff happened this past week, but I tried to cram all the important news in less than five minutes. Please let me know if I should keep doing this on weekly basis. Video after the jump (with a little blooper at the end)!
How to Take Screenshots on Nokia N9 with ScreenshotMee
I’m currently gathering my thoughts for the upcoming review of the Nokia N9, but I wanted to show you a cool app right away. It’s called ScreenshotMee. It lets you take screenshots on the Nokia N9 by just putting your hand over the phone. It’s free at the Ovi Store (yea.. it’s still called Ovi).

Ovi Store Site Logo Removed, Getting Ready for Nokia Store
Back in May, we told you that Nokia was removing the word “Ovi” by the end of 2012. If you go to the Ovi Store website right now, you may notice the Ovi logo was just replaced with Nokia’s logo. The site title was also renamed, “Nokia Store.” We’re not sure when the rebranding will be complete, but I sure like hearing Nokia Store better than Ovi Store.

Demo: Force Control Widget for Symbian
Here’s a quick look at the Force Control Widget for Symbian. Force Control gives you access to common settings in a few clicks.

BETA: Ovi Store Update for Nokia N8
An interesting item showed up in software update for my Nokia N8. It says BETA: Ovi Store update. The description says it is “optional and needed only if Store stopped working after update from PS1 to Belle SW.” It’s weird because my Nokia N8 doesn’t have the Belle update yet. It’s running Anna.

Ovi to be Rebranded as Nokia Starting July 2011
You will no longer see the word “Ovi” by the end of 2012. The official Nokia Conversations posted that the company made the decision to change their service branding from Ovi to nokia to centralize their services identity under one brand. The transition begins July of this year. No big changes are expected for the services experiences since this is just a name-change.
