Pretty scary that someone can break into your Android phone by just typing in enough random characters in the dialer. Android has already provided a bug fix but how long before it hits every Android phone out there?

2 billion lines of code to run all of Google is just plain staggering. Of course, it's not all connected.

About time that Apple lets you delete all of its bloatware. So nice of you to think of us, Cupertino.

Cortana running the Windows software in your car is no surprise. You can use it now to control your desktop.

Great news that every kid in school will be learning Computer Science. Still a long way away from filling those millions of programmer jobs that will be available in the next 10 years.

microsoft copies everything from apple with a little twist but siri is more catchy than cortanta just sounds funny but it is convenient for people driving. It's great that computer programming is going to be a high school requirement because it is necessary for the future.
