Plus fever dream of a guilt-ridden gadget reporter, and why you can ignore CES A quick burst of 4 links for you to chew over, as picked by the Technology team Windows Phone 7, Windows 8: How Microsoft can reclaim its throne in 2012 – Slate Magazine Farjad Manjoo: “I’ll say it: I’m bullish on Microsoft in 2012. This could be the year that it shakes its malaise and takes its place alongside Apple, Google, and Amazon as a dominant innovator of the mobile age.” It’s always risky to bet against Microsoft, of course.

Tech firms are banking on a cloudy future

On November 1, 2011, In Apple, Gadgets, News, Technology, Uncategorized, by weranda7

Not everyone wants to entrust their libraries and memories to the likes of Apple, but technology companies hope we’ll join the rush While 2011 has been the year of the smartphone, 2012 looks set to be the beginning of a major push by the likes of Sony, Apple and Samsung to sell their customers families of interconnected screen devices, serving up digitally stored entertainment libraries. People will be urged to throw out their remaining CDs and boxed sets and store music, films, TV shows, even family photo albums on the servers of multinational corporations. Content must now not only be acquired, but there will be fees for the computing space in which to store it.

On October 27, 2011, In News, Technology, Uncategorized, by waciejos13

Search giant calls end to free mapping APIs – though the pricing suggests that it’s not trying to dissuade people or make a huge profit Nothing free lasts forever; and it’s damn hard to make money putting ads on maps. That seems to be the conclusion to draw from Google’s decision to put limits on its Google Maps API
