  • Gillmor Gang: iBeacon & Eggs | TechCrunch

    22 July 2013

    I admit I was wrong about Microsoft's ability to compete in mobile. We'll talk again on August 1, but I just don't see how Microsoft will grow its market much anymore and on Gillmor Gang we dig into last week's financial results reported by Microsoft. techcrunch.com The...

    05 July 2013

    Crap Jeffrey McManus was one of our favorite speakers in the 1990s when my wife and I helped run VBITS. Great guy, with a great sense of humor. He will definitely be missed. I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of my good friend Jeffrey McManus. He...

  • Business Insider: Tech

    04 July 2013

    One thing about military technology. Eventually it comes out of those secret rooms to all of us. Try this on your Gmail and be surprised. This MIT project lets you 'spy' on your own email metadata, just like the NSA. http://buff.ly/12fvlML

  • Samsung acquiring Boxee for $30M

    03 July 2013

    Something is wrong with the world when Yahoo buys Qwiki for $50 million (I'm sorry to Qwiki's team, but I never liked it much) but Boxee (which changed TV for many of us) goes to Samsung for only $30 million. Sometimes I just don't understand valuations. venturebeat.com Streaming...
