Encryption: The Importance of Security
A lot of people seem to take for granted the fact that they relay and store data in a relatively safe manner. Take email for example, when an email is sent from one person to the next the sender can respectfully assume that the message will only be read by the person on the other end of the message. One thing people do not realize however is how encryption allows for the message to be safely sent to its destination without others being able to intercept and see that message.
Robots: Coming Sooner Than You May Think
The photo posted above is of this neat robot dubbed Spot which was created by Boston Dynamics. If you’ve never heard of Boston Dynamics don’t feel bad because I never have either, but they are most definitely going to be one of the biggest names when it comes to household robots in the future. Just take a look at how awesome these robots look in this video.
Piracy: A Cry for Innovation
There is no doubt that as time goes on that it is necessary for companies to adapt to the market in order to remain relevant. If they decide not to then there is a pretty good chance that the company in question is going to end up like Kodak did when they thought there was no need to upgrade to digital. Since the rise of technology there has been an absolutely massive amount of adaptation going on in the corporate world. One of the biggest examples of adaptation would be the retail industry’s shift to e-commerce in order to meet the demands of the consumer whom would rather shop from home.
Facebook’s App: How to Save Mobile Battery
I would like to start this blog post off by stating that I am not an entirely huge fan of Facebook. Though I have to admit that it can be useful for some scenarios such as re connecting with old friends or keeping up to date on the happenings in your neighborhood. The problem is, for every good thing I can say about the social media tech giant, there is about 20 other less than gleaming qualities that I could point out. So needless to say I don’t really frequent Facebook on a regular basis which ended up leading me to discovering something that all smartphone users should be aware of.

Internet of Things: The Web Just Got Bigger… Bam!
Before I go ahead with saying what I want to get across in today’s post I feel that I should go over a couple of key concepts first. The Internet (spelled with a capital I) is what we refer to as the world wide web, which is the general connection that connects devices across the world. However, the internet (spelled with a lowercase i) is a generic term which refers to a simple connection of devices. The point that I am trying to get across here is that quite simply put, I want you to think of the term Internet as a connection of devices instead of just the tool you use in order to check your Facebook page.
Uber: Their Next Step in Automation
So I use Uber from time to time; it is extremely useful. It’s ridiculously nice in a city setting where one can simply pull out there phone and have a ride within minutes. Today I was driving home from work and when I took a detour through downtown Pittsburgh in order to avoid the ridiculous traffic on the Liberty bridge I just so happened to end up behind the car seen in the above photo. The spinning device on top caught my attention so I ended up doing a quick Google search to discover that Uber just so happen to be testing self driving cars.
Bio Metrics: The Next Step In Security
The human body is very complex. There are many different anatomical parts to the human body that are unique to every specific human being. For example there are fingerprints, eye retinas, arm veins, faces and even an individuals voice are all unique from one person to the next.
Bitcoin: The Future of Currency
There is no doubt that physical currency is going the way of the dinosaur. Over the years people have been gradually carrying less and less cash and relying more heavily on debit cards. Interestingly enough as more traditional monies become more virtual there are other virtual currencies actually gaining momentum. The most popular of which being Bitcoin.
