The Steve Jobs Movie
“What do you do? You’re not an engineer. You’re not a designer. You can’t put a hammer to a nail,” says Rogen’s Wozniak. “So how come 10 times in a day I read, ‘Steve Jobs is a genius’?” Responds Fassbender’s Jobs: “Musicians play their instruments. I play the orchestra.” The trailer of the new Steve Jobs is simply amazing. It has already been seen by over 2 million people on YouTube alone. The film,…

Smart Watches: To Wear or not to Wear?
The new Android operating system for wearables looks great. And, apparently, is a clear signal of new things to come in the industry. Android Wear might become the next new and shiny toy for your teenagers but it won’t move the needle for businesses in the next couple of years. Why, you might ask?

The New Myspace is a Clear Winner
