New Technology makes Everyone Giddy

So as you could see, Build and I/O were pretty incredible with some new things for everyone to enjoy. Now, I wish I could have some incredible things to talk about again today after the massive amount of things yesterday, but truthfully, I did not get a lot reading done today.

Most of my day was spent learning some intricate details about how my work system functions and prices based on the specific mark constructor given to a specific part. I can honestly say that I was fascinated to learn more about it, and I look forward to putting more work in tomorrow. For me, and many tech bloggers/journalists, learning and understanding new software or even hardware is what keeps up addicted to the tech world. Honestly, the greatest feeling in relation to tech is learning something completely new.

In my opinion, that is why people love watching the keynotes of events like Build, I/O, WWDC, F8, et cetera. People love new things, and specifically, tech enthusiasts love to see the latest and greatest technologies; we cannot wait to get our hands on them. We then spend so much time learning the ins and outs of them so that we can write about the technology for others. This is why we do it.

So again, while I love to have something more to give you today, I simply did not have the time to the research. And to be honest, there is no need to go in to the details of my work system to give you a taste of tech for the day because if you never work there, I promise you will never use a day in your life. So, have a great night and tune in tomorrow for some more new and exciting advances in the world of technology.

In-display sensors or facial scanners: which will take off?

The fingerprint sensor may be moving back to the front...under the screen. Could this be the next big trend in mobile technology (see previous entry about current trend)? Or, will companies move the Apple way and opt for facial recognition for security? With the debut of the iPhone X, Apple shifted away from the fingerprint sensor and debuted FaceID. Utilizing (arguably) some of the most advanced cameras and sensors, the iPhone X negated the need for fingerprint, bio-metric security by using 3D facial recognition to verify identity. In doing so, the home button vanished from the iPhone along with the ability to scan fingerprints. Several months later, at CES, Vivo demoed the first phone using in-display fingerprint scanner technology ; the idea being to remove bezels on the front as well remove the sensor from the back of the body. Prior to CES, many believed that Samsung would be the first to debut the technology, but they were held back by mass-producing and technological restra...

Where, oh where did all of my wires go?

As I read through the comments on various mobile phone articles, I always see the same complaints: "Where is the headphone jack?" "No headphone jack? No thanks" "If it ain't broken, why fix it?" While I originally shared their contempt, I have since come to question where is all of this hate for less wires coming from? I admit that I am definitely not an audiophile, but in my opinion, Bluetooth headphones have come a long way and sound pretty solid to me. More importantly, looking at the bigger picture, haven't we been in love with the idea of losing wires for decades? As I write this blog from a wireless computer with a wireless keyboard navigated with a wireless mouse, I am reminded that we have been removing wires from everything possible for a very long time, and while there may have been resistance at the time, we have adopted this concept in to the norm. As a young kid, I remember growing up with a clear "house phone" (a rarit...

Where do tablets belong?

Last night, I had a sudden thought: where does my tablet belong in my tech life? I have always loved the thought of having a need and purpose for every piece of technology I own. For instance, my computer does all of my heavy lifting (photo and video editing) while my phone does all of communicating and daily living tasks. My Chromecast ? That is for tossing music and videos to my TV. Google Home Mini ? What a great little assistant for quick information and getting my day started. I use my Xbox for gaming while my Huawei Watch gives me quick updates and almost-hands-free communication. So, where does my Kindle come in? I originally bought my Kindle Fire to be a consumption device and makeshift pseudo-laptop as mine is not very portable. I thought I would use it for all of Netflix watching as I moved about the house as well as for reading plenty of books; I even intended it to be useful to bang out a quick blog post or article. We probably had a great relationship at first...and ...
