The Internet in real time
I came across this statistics site earlier today and was blown away. It is just incredible how much data is being used and made every second. In the time it took to create this post (all 7 minutes), the following happened:
Heartbleed
Heartbleed Following the Heartbleed security bug in the OpenSSL Cryptography library, a fixed version of OpenSSL was released on the 7 April 2014. What is OpenSSL?

3D printing at CES 2014
3D printing has now got its entire own section at CES 2014 and from a quick walk through you can see why.

808 portable sound CES 2014

Whilst there is a fair amount of wearable tech it is nothing compared to the vast amounts of exhibitors showing off their latest portable sound devices. I gave up counting these exhibitors at 34, all plugging their latest sound boxes. However, 808 Audio were a little bit …
LG Curved CES 2014
The very first stand I came across this year was LG. This was surprising as last year in the main hall Samsung dominated everything (except Sony’s wrap around screen that was impressive.) LG had a very impressive passive 3D display which was just incredible to watch, unfortunately the images and video don’t translate very well. There was nothing dramatically new …
