Steve Cooper didn’t expect much from Spotify. When the New York-based band Spirit Animal released “The Black Jack White” last spring, the band’s frontman didn’t have high hopes about the streaming music service. He loves the platform and subscribes to it but didn’t think Spotify would help his band this early in its career. But out of nowhere, Sean Parker, Napster’s infamous cofounder and early Sp
Google has a confession to make: It does not understand you. If you ask it “the 10 deepest lakes in the U.S,” it will give you a very good result based on the keywords in the phrase and sites with significant authority on those words and even word groupings, but Google Fellow and SVP Amit Singhal says Google doesn’t understand the question. “We cross our fingers and hope someone on the web has wri

At the very least, it will likely make you fatter, sicker and more stressed out than a job that doesn't require sitting down and hunching over a keyboard for a third of the day. Studies have shown that the amount of time American's spend sitting increased by 8% between 1980 and 2000, while obesity rates doubled. Other factors played roles in fostering flab, but consider
Zuckerberg to Potential Shareholders: Facebook Is on a Social Mission In a letter to potential shareholders within the document, Zuckerberg wrote that Facebook "was built to accomplish a social mission" and said the company was inspired by technologies such as the printing press and television, which "make the world more open and connected."

If you've read Daniel Suarez’s techno thriller Daemon or William Gibson’s Spook Country, then you've encountered a world where there is no dividing line between physical and virtual realities.

The real-world effects of the game are also quite pertinent. If you need proof, we've dissected how the startup is creating a new currency, turning social activity into a game, redefining what it means to be a regular at an establishment, pioneering a deeper connection between place and patron, and putting people focus on higher education. 1.
