Can’t Twitter just be Twitter?
Some people get twitter. Some people don’t. Whether you use it or not, with over 300 million active users and over 350,000 tweets per minute, it is a social media powerhouse. For anybody who isn’t familiar, twitter is a social network where users can share short (140 character maximum) thoughts called tweets. Users can follow and reply to other user’s tweets.

Are We Witnessing the Birth of Google OS?
In response to recent articles and gossip, I’ve been asked the following question by concerned individuals: “Is Google getting rid of the Chromebook?” The answer is quite simply, Absolutely not. This week, it was reported by the Wall Street Journal that Google would fold the Chrome Operating System into Android. This got everybody talking and wondering if this is the end for the Chromebook.

What is a Chromebook?
When I first heard that Google was creating an operating system that was basically just a browser, I thought it was silly and nobody would buy one. Looking back, I now think that it wasn’t a silly idea, it was a brilliant idea. A Chromebook is a laptop computer that runs an operating system called Chrome OS.

PC Does What? Microsoft’s first Laptop
For years Microsoft has primarily been a software company. They made the software and companies like HP, Dell, Lenovo, Acer & Asus made the hardware. Microsoft didn’t have their own computer hardware, they just provided the software for everybody else. That all changed back in 2012 when they released the Microsoft Surface tablet. It was made to compete with Apple’s iPad. It was a tablet that ran Windows. The first version was decent but the […]

Ever since the days of Dick Tracy, or a few years later Michael Knight, talking to your watch or having it talk to you has been an exciting thought. Many companies have tried to make this dream a reality. In the 1980’s Seiko developed a number of watches followed in the 1990’s by IBM’s WatchPad. In 1999 Samsung created the first watch phone. I don’t have to explain that none of these watches had an […]
