All Rumors 'Go' for the Widely Anticipated 'iPad Pro'

January 10, 2014

Rumors of a super-duper, amped-up, big-screen "iPad Pro" have been floating around at least as early as this summer, and that's before Apple surprised the tech community with its 64-bit A7 processors in September. Overall, most of the rumors seem to surround speculative predictions, where a financia...

France Finally Levies Teeny Fine Against Google

January 9, 2014

So Now China IS Lifting Videogame Console Ban

January 7, 2014

China reportedly will temporarily lift a sales ban on foreign videogame consoles, reversing a 14-year prohibition.

It's the Tech Wave You Don't See That Will Get You

January 2, 2014

Here in Silicon Valley we are currently worried about a major transportation strike, and I doubt many on either side yet realize that this is likely to accelerate the move to automate most of the related jobs.

Was 2013 the Run-Up to Nineteen Eighty-Four?

December 23, 2013

It is time to look back on 2013 and consider what we've learned about technology and human nature. Both Apple and Dell were massively changed, and Google went from a company that wanted our private information to one that wanted our jobs. The U.S. government decided, through the NSA, that laws don't...

Australian State Outlaws Non-Consensual Sexting

December 12, 2013

The Australian state of Victoria has made it illegal to distribute explicit images without consent. The new law specifically outlaws "non-consensual sexting," which generally takes place when lovers split and there is post-breakup payback in the form of intimate photos of the former partners. The la...

Google's Death Wish

December 9, 2013

One of the recurring themes in the technology industry is that very successful companies become arrogant and start taking unnecessary risks or abusing customers -- the two aren't mutually exclusive. That behavior can accomplish what competitors have failed to do: It can kill them. I was in IBM in th...

Apple, Microsoft and the Innovation Delusion

November 25, 2013

I got a note from a guy a few days ago who said he had an idea that would transform Microsoft, and he wanted me to introduce him to Bill Gates. I don't do that, but it got me thinking. Given that both Apple and Microsoft are based on ideas that came from outside, there is irony in the fact that both...
