"And I'll go on the forums and they'll complain that Frodo is eating the Lembas bread outside of Mordor instead of in the Mines of Moria." Silly Megan Fox. Everyone knows that Frodo was introduced to Lembas bread...

@mejiac thanks, it seems like Microsoft is gaining more progress every week! Very interesting to stay on top of it. I'm also happy to learn (as I'm sure many in the enterprise are) that simplifying conference calls has become...
In reply to: Re: On the right path
@pcharles09 true, they're not really on consumers' radar... yet. The enterprise pays close attention to Microsoft, but I think it's still on the back burner for most consumers. Though it's slowly winning some back, I think,...

@pcharles09 Good question, they should have... but better late than never. It's exciting to think about where he might take the company over the next few years.

Has anyone heard if Samsung will continue the water proofing on their phones? I have the S4 and having to be careful to keep it away from water can be annoying. Oops my hands are wet, can't anwser the phone right now......

That's a possibility. I also think that calorie-wise, the edible coffee cup is one of the more innocent menu items coming out of KFC. This is the same chain that's replacing bread with fried chicken - http://www.usa...

I am not very inclined to buy one for myself. But I do feel the battery life and fast charging feature attractive - this is the pain point for modern smartphones.

I like this post - a lot of funny ideas and interesting use cases. Some of them may become more and more popular in the near future. Especially I like the idea of lettng app to predict the outbreak of flu.

@glenbren, I agree with you but, as Tom said, it is a fashion accesory. The phone looks amazing and feels very good. I attended the presentation last night, and the thing that impressed me more is the cameras, with a F1.9...

Smartphone manufacture should consider to have an eco-system established instead of relying on hardware/software selling. They should think about how to form a closed-loop ecosystem. The profit should be obtained by user...

To me this does not sound good, either. As all the other security areas, as long as you have the interface available, then it will always be abused in the end. How can we guarantee that LI is only used for legal...
In reply to: Re: Trying to hard?
@Curt, I agree that the interface is going to be difficult for many especially when the scale of your data has very loose tolerances. There will be systems where the tiniest fluctuation of data will be an issue and...

I guess this is my soap box recently, I hear a lot of "we need this data" without anyone understanding why or what they are going to do with it. It's great to be able to say you have data but you really need to have...

@StaceyE, a lot of professionals miss this point. They assume that they'll never get hacked or if it does happen that they'll notice right away and be able to shut the attack down quickly. What we're seeing in the...

Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part. There are profound differences in how the two are built, the functionality each prioritizes, the release cycles on which they’re developed — even the attitudes, values, and work styles of the developers creating them.
