Coronavirus panic is expediting the demise of tech conventions
[ad_1] It’s likely that some of these companies won’t return to the idea of physical shows at all. It’s not completely the fault of coronavirus hysteria, however. After all, none of this happened when the H1N1 pandemic (swine flu) hit the globe in 2009 and 2010. E3 went off without a hitch at the height […]
A closer look at Mark Zuckerberg’s ‘next decade’ manifesto

Samsung SelfieType is a more virtual virtual keyboard
[ad_1] SelfieType is a project out of the Korean giant’s C-Lab startup incubator, which uses the front-facing camera to track your motion. Prop your phone up as if it was a display, fire up the app, and then touch type onto the table as if you had a keyboard there. The phone’s front-facing camera and […]
