The Internet of Things

The Internet of Things

We are still here “We are still here.” That was the headline in the Chicago Tribune in 1910 after the Comet Halley crossed the cold Chicago skyline. The New York Times had previously reported on the vision of a renowned scientist who warned of the possibility that toxic gases from the tail of the comet could “probably extinguish all life on the Planet.” Well, after surviving at least four catastrophes that threatened to destroy our Planet...

The End of the World

Today I bring a topic that will not leave anyone indifferent: World’s End. The collapse of Humanity. The Hecatomb. The Apocalypse. Regular readers will wonder: wasn´t this a blog about Technology, Entrepreneurship and Innovation? You are right. Read on, please. The Mass Extinction 65.5 million years ago an asteroid the size of a city collided northwest of the peninsula of Yucatan, Mexico, where a huge crater of 280 km (170 miles) of diameter can still be seen...

Where are my electronic devices?

Wake up call at 6:00 AM. Bill Murray. The alarm clock rings one day after the other, in a continuous process, although it is always the same day. Groundhog Day. Today, however, would be impossible. Why? Because no one buys alarm clocks… If you spent enough time in the Dark Ages, before smartphones were ubiquitous, you probably have thought of the enormous amount of physical objects that our mobile devices have replaced. Have you ever made a list? You’d be...

I know your secrets…

Our entire life is online. We introduce and submit personal data to the Internet almost every day from our computers, smartphones and mobile devices, plus other devices such as credit cards. Maybe you are not concerned about what happens to your data, as you might think there’s not that much info available online ABOUT YOU, right? Well, think again. Your full name is online. And most likely your age. Your gender. Full address. Phone number. Social Security Number....

Pencil or Tablet

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” I have always liked this quote from Albert Einstein. And it is relevant to the rest of the post, so I invite you to read it again. The topic of today’s article came up in a conversation I had with some friends about the beginning of school, where very young students (we’re talking of preschoolers here) are using tablets in...

Tracking: Personalization Versus Privacy

Tracking: Personalization Versus Privacy

As you sit in the restaurant, the tablet presenting the menu recognizes you: “Welcome back (insert your name here). May we suggest you enjoy a cold (insert your favorite beer) while you browse today’s specials? Based on your prior choices, our chef recommends…” This example is not real. Yet. Or at least I haven’t seen it. But it’s possible with today’s technology, Steven Spielberg’s 2002 movie Minority Report featured personalized advertisements that...

Apps: They’re no longer just a phone thing

I’ve been writing lately about how the amount of mobile devices has surpassed the current human population, how people relate with the technology that’s available to them and how they find innovative ways to use those technologies to create groundbreaking advances in the way we interact with each other and with objects. In addition, I’ve touched on how augmented reality technologies are slowly moving out of science fiction movies and getting into our everyday...

Tablets slowly filling more niches

Tablets slowly filling more niches

I frequently talk with colleagues and friends about how they use technology and how they adopt technical innovation in their daily activities. Besides smartphones, one of the fastest rising trends is the use of tablets. They are fast, secure, reliable, easy-to-pack and travel with, and pack the power and the screen width necessary to use both for work and leisure purposes. While iPads used to be the reference model, I have seen Android based devices taking a huge leap...
