pretty good idea about the mechanic cube that was placed inside the ocean or whatever they put good help for climate and all that and for the data they need

Watching the NFL using HoloLens will be very exciting--just like in the movies.

Although the new Galaxy looks impressive, I'm still drawn to Windows mobile and it's business and productivity applications.

I can see how dropping data centers into the water will help to bring better internet response to big data draws like cities.

I remember when I first signed up for gmail. And now it's at 1 million users. Go Google!

I really liked the mechanic cube article. Its a very smart idea, its incredible how much work they had to put in making it.

I like the mechanic cube article because the people who made it can find many information about different things.

Google has 1 billion users as of now who are using Gmail constantly. In only two years Gmail became the most saught after Gmail service. Also,a project called Natick, was submerged underwater and when it came back up the electronics inside it were nice and cool. Microsoft says the next step for the project will be building a larger version of the hulking steel tube that's four times as large and stays submerged for a full year. They say the real reason why their doing this is because they want those places where the people live closer to the water get data services, just like those who live closer to land. Also according to Samsung the new GalaxyS7 is going to be released with new features and improved modifications. Bigger screen size, longer battery life span and a new gadget called Touch-wiz. Microsoft also is trying to come up with new plans to fix some things that Microsoft phones and tablets have been having and their trying to recast it for productivity or services. Also Microsoft is looking to working on Hololens, a project to enable you to see football in a holographic way. NFL executives and players joined Microsoft and talked about the idea, which I find to be very cool.

A future built upon mobile apps would be another step down for Microsoft in terms of revenue and reputation. They've never made a good version of Windows "mobile" anything.
