Count the Financial Times as another major organization that has been hacked.

Tech Utopia.

While Google’s perspectives on backstabbing, etc. in Silicon Valley are indeed accurate… it is naive (at best) to think that as long as economic-determinism is involved that it’ll change (in this and/or any other industry).

$6 Billion Dollar Vision?

John — Wed, 15 May 2013 06:41:27 +0000

Speculation is that Google Glass (and other wearable computing devices) could spawn a $6 Billion App Market; of which, one cannot help but wonder how much of $X Billion will directly contribute to the economy vs. being based upon speculative investment (i.e., Venture Capital and Founder’s Windfalls, etc.)

(It) Must Change?!

Whether or not Apple will heed the caution within the enclosed article is yet to be seen… Nevertheless, at a minimum, it makes for some good rumor and/or innuendo.

‘Hack’ & the City…

Count a fairly high-profile author as the latest victim… How many ‘countless’ others have had a similar experience?

Re-emerging.

John — Fri, 10 May 2013 01:36:42 +0000

Nokia, remember them? Although the company is no longer the global, market leader they are still very much a player in some of the emerging markets (whereas a lot of end-users buy used handsets / pay-as-they-go, etc.) The firm’s release of a $99.00 Smartphone for India is clearly a flanking move in order to both stop their market lose as well as reassert their presence within the nation (as they slipped from having a dominant market share in India just last year). Whether this strategy works or not is yet to be seen (especially as Indian consumers continue to develop greater levels of affluence and a desire for higher-end goods and services).

Wave This.

With the Smartphone (platform) continuing to chip-away at the (once-dominant) Game Console space, Sony announced today that they are eliminating their $99.00 Developer Fee. Whether this will help the ailing firm turn their fortunes around is yet to be determined. However, it could also pressure other vendors to follow suit (which might be a longer-term boon for all parties involved: game developers / platform vendors and consumers).

Biohacking.

Giving the term, ‘green light’ a whole new meaning.
