Google raises Gmail to 10GB free, 10-times increase since launching in 2004

Eight years ago one gigabyte of online storage was a remarkable thing. One gigabyte of email? Preposterous, but that's exactly what Google offered back in 2004 with the launch of Gmail, and now that factor is increasing. Current Gmail users were floating at around 7.5GB of storage but, as part of all the Google Drivehoopla, that storage is now officially up to 10GB. That's a lot of spam and, for those of us who are already paying extra for more storage, it's even more room to grow before we upgrade to the next tier.

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.
