Of all the Google Glass demo videos, photos, and stories going around, this one may be my favorite so far. It’s simplicity yet strong message that you can do anything with Glass, and share it in real-time (hands free!) while you are across the world, is quite powerful.
Every kid’s fantasy, and let’s face it, some of you adults too - is to be Iron Man. But to be Iron Man, it will cost you a pretty Penny (you see what I did there!). You must be a billionaire to start, but how many billions? Well, ten to be exact.
Thanks to the keen eye of 9to5Google, they noticed a new tech help FAQ by Google for the new Google Glass that has yet to be released to the greater public. The FAQ breaks down the technical specs in detail of what Google Glass encapsulates.
If you can’t wait to get your paws on the new Google Glass, you are not alone. It’s going to be pretty cool. If you want a sneak peak on what it might be like, you have to watch this video.
File this under very cool. Digg, a content consumption website akin to the early days of the web, that eventually fell apart and failed while similar sites like Reddit took off, is offering up a better solution to the Google Reader massive fail today.
Pictured inset is my Google Reader account. I have many many subscriptions, and thousands of updates daily for Reader. I can’t tell you how much I love, enjoy, and utilize Google Reader every day. That is why I am so disappointed, saddened, upset and every negative emotion I can think of, that Google is shutting down Reader.
In a new video published today by Google, they are giving us another look at the much anticipated Google Glass. If you recall, last year Google unveiled their latest venture, Project Glass which are interactive glasses (called Glass because it’s only one lens). The video raises expectations for the new product, which could further shape next gen technology such as the iPhone did a few years ago.
Did you know that every minute of every day Facebook users share over 684 thousand pieces of content, or that Google has over 2 million search queries? That is a s-load of data being generated and shuffled about on the web. The data ins’t slowing either, and as Internet becomes the staple of society and social media continuing to fuel data consumption, there are no signs that data generation will slow anytime soon.
So if you are a security nut with killer hacking skills, here is your opportunity at winning $3.14159 million (π) from Google without having to chance your luck with the lottery. Although, you may have more odds at winning the lotto than breaking Google Chrome’s OS.
The newest craze to hit Tumblr, courtesy of the new Facebook Graph Search, is clearly putting some folks in a compromising position. The new Facebook search method, which isn’t yet available to everyone, has a very robust and dynamic search which allows for all kinds of search results based on your Social Graph.
Let’s be honest - Facebook Search sucks. It always has. If you are on Facebook and want search results comparable to Google’s search engine, it’s gonna happen. That is until now. Facebook is finally promising a better, more intelligent search, which is something to get excited about.
It’s been a minute since I have talked about Google+. Not much since summer has been going on with Google’s social network. They are making minor changes here and there, but as time has gone on I have seen less and less from the network. Activity such as re-shares have gone down, comments have gone down, and the amount of people that have “circled” me has slowed down.
It’s the sad reality of technology today. With so many companies constantly testing different ways to target consumers, we end up being guinea pigs succumbing to their every whim. I think Joy of Tech hit it right on the head with their comic.
If you are aren’t sure who exactly to cast your vote for this coming November, why not ask Google? I mean, who are these people really? Don’t worry, Google has all the answers. I think my favorite though is President Obama may just be an alien.
One of the tools I use to enhance my photos before posting to Instagram, and I would say I use it about 90% for every photo, is Snapseed. It’s just an amazing app that let’s you edit photos down to every last detail. From saturation, contrast, ambiance, brightness, and filters like vintage, drama and grunge, you can do everything Instagram can do and more. It’s a powerful image editing app that I would recommend to anyone.
