Cool Tech: New software uses your smartphone camera as a lens, overlays data and images in real-time
Augmented Reality might just be the best thing that has ever happened to Plain Old Regular Reality. What is it? I’m sure by now you’ve seen Google Earth. You were probably amazed by how you can browse different parts of the globe and see detailed information simply by clicking on icons in it’s 3D topographical view.

Mainstream media outlets help the smart people who use social media to cull out rumors from garbage.
All PR is Good PR?
A close associate of mine recently spent five minutes explaining why she hated Rush Limbaugh. I asked her how often she listens to him and wasn’t surprised by her answer. “I’ll catch him two to four times a week” she said, adding for emphasis “it’s horrible.” Rush claims 20 million people listen to [...]

Ads Can Be Customized To Viewer
Someone’s watching you — and who you are determines what they’ll show you.
In malls, health clubs, gas stations and even grocery stores, small cameras are being embedded in the screen or hidden around it to track the viewer’s gender, approximate age range and, in some cases, ethnicity – and can change the ads it displays [...]
