25 Disruptive Technology Trends for 2015 - 2016
With every new year comes a landslide of predictions and trends to guide us into the new year. While the year advances, rarely do such transformative trends or changes take place in alignment with a calendar. Not even Y2K could do so Now with that said, I was asked to present my thoughts on what lies ahead in Vegas during CES at Brand Innovators “Mega Trends” event. By the first week of January, there were already some tremendous thoughts already shared by some of the best. Consider this list v 1.0. The trends are visualized and explained in the embedded Slideshare. 1) Social Media 1.0 is dead.

6 amazing tracking devices so you don't lose stuff Confession: I spend way too much time trying to figure out where my keys, purse, and um, even my dog have gone at times, so am curious about all the tracking devices out there now. It’s one of the most frustrating feelings to not know where something is when you need it. Now. Some even promise to help you not lose it in the first place. Linquet Tracking Device ($2.99/month) Attach the Linquet fob (at top) to anything you want to keep tabs on, and you can monitor it through iOS and Android devices.

With a 2-Year Battery, This Wireless Motion Sensor Can Go Anywhere Narrative Unveils the Clip 2 Wearable Camera Sweden’s Narrative has today released details of version two of its Clip wearable camera, ahead of CES. Like the previous version, the Clip 2 is designed to be worn as you go about every day life. It takes a photograph every 30 seconds and, once uploaded to Narrative’s servers, these images are assembled into ‘moments’ that capture the most visually interesting parts of your day. One big problem with the original Clip was its reliance on being connected to a computer to adjust settings and upload photos. With this in mind, a big boon with version 2 is Wi-Fi sync and Bluetooth connectivity . The device can automatically log into one assigned Wi-Fi network whenever it’s in range, uploading images automatically. Additionally, the sensor has been upgraded from 5 megapixels to 8 megapixels, and there’s a new 90-degree lens, promising improved light sensitivity in low light conditions. I was impressed when I reviewed the original version of the Clip.

Feel, Act, Make sense • Sen.se El patrón de la vida, las secuencias de Fibonacci Las matemáticas están en donde quiera que enfoques tu mirada, estas no fueron inventadas por locos que nada mas nos querían dar problemas (literalmente hablando) en la escuela, si no que fueron descubiertas para ayudarnos a comprender el origen, naturaleza y secuencia de la vida. Para poder comprender al Universo, uno debe percibir los patrones que nos rodean. Para ser breves les presentaremos el siguiente video que resume en sí el propósito de este artículo en un ambiente gráfico y amigable. Hagamos un experimento y documentemos las flores desde las que tienen 1 pétalo hasta las que tienen 21. Flor de 1 Petalo Flor de 2 Pétalos. Flor de 3 pétalos. Flor de 5 petalos. Flor de 8 pétalos. Flor de 13 pétalos Flor de 21 pétalos. Estos números de Fibonacci se resumen en ESPIRALES.

From the outside looking in, it may seem like video game consoles are the most popular products in the industry. Sales generated by PC games are poised to overtake those for video game consoles, a monumental shift that is many years in the making, according to data from industry researcher PwC. The video game industry is going through rapid change. From PC to consoles, and back again So what's causing a change? The strategy is working.
