Microsoft launched Office 365!!!!!

In another step onto Google's turf, Microsoft launched Office 365, a Web-based version of Office and e-mail rolled into a monthly service for less than the cost of a Netflix subscription.
The new Office 365 is the answer to Google Apps, a Web version of word processing and spreadsheets that Google offers to businesses for $50 per year. Microsoft's new basic service will cost $72 a year. Microsoft said people can start signing up for a free test version, and the service will start selling next year.
"Customers will get the best of everything we know about productivity 365 days a year," said Kurt DelBene, the new president of Microsoft's Business division, at a Tuesday news conference in San Francisco.
It's one of the many ways Microsoft is pushing into cloud computing: selling software served from and stored in the company's giant data centers.
"We believe it's one of the most impactful transformations that will happen in our generation," DelBene said of the cloud.
For businesses with fewer than 25 employees, Microsoft is offering the $6 monthly service that combines Office Web Apps — Word, Excel, PowerPoint — with SharePoint for collaboration, Exchange for e-mail and Lync for communications.
For larger businesses, Microsoft can offer a combination of services for $2 to $27 per user, so that companies can scale the package software for different types of employees, whether they're factory workers or accountants.
The new brand, Office 365, replaces the former products named Business Productivity Online Suite, also known as BPOS, Office Live Small Business and Live@edu.

Sony 3D Camera

The Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-TX9 and DSC-WX5 are touted as the smallest 3D cameras in the world (and they are also affordable). In the past, 3D cameras were only affordable by those in the film industry or contractors who have money to burn. This is now no longer the case. Although these cameras do not support video, they are an amazing advancement of the whole 3D technology industry. They are putting 3D in the hands of consumers.

Apple Drone - A reality ???

A graphic designer in Germany by the name of Eric Huismann has a few rather detailed suggestions for Tim Cook and company on how the company might approach making its own drone, which could be useful for engaging in battle with those nosey UAVs that have been spying on the construction of its  new campus lately. Huismann’s elegant mock-ups of a potential Apple drone feature a white and black quadcopter with that sleek, curved and minimalist Apple design aesthetic. He also proposes mounting four videocameras on board capable of capturing stills, full 360-degree panoramas and 4K video that can also be streamed to a connected iOS device and then on to YouTube or another online platform for instant sharing and broadcasting.
