A Historic Day for Apple, Palm, HP, & AOL!

I do not remember a day, at least in recent history, in which there were so many game-changing tech announcements. AOL sells ICQ, the first ever instant messaging technology, Apple enters search to compete with Google, and HP buys Palm to compete with Google, Apple, BlackBerry, and any other mobile giant you can think of. All that happened yesterday, and people (myself mainly) do not know which piece of news is most worthy of their attention. So, after conducting a short Twitter survey (screen shot below), I decided to blog about all three… Now, my only challenge is to do it in a blog post that is not something you can bind and sell as a 500 page book, since there is just so much to say about each one of these developments.

 

The Real Reason Mac is Better than PC? Macs Are Not Racist! (Videos)

HP is in a lot of trouble lately if I am judging by the amount of bad press the video below brought the company. To make a long story short, a man by the name of Desi was playing around with his new HP laptop that is supposed to include Facial Tracking capabilities. That means, when you move, the webcam tracks you and moves with you. One slight problem it wasn’t working. Well, to Desi’s surprise, when he conducted the same test with his white friend, all of a sudden, the facial tracking worked. Everyone is pointing fingers at HP and half jokinky calling them racists.
