Sometimes I find it so yes krotesk when discussing about why and why, instead of being politically so the course is that the petroleum promote not worth more because it is no longer needed, purely by the new technologies of blocked for political reasons, are locked away and not approved. That should be the debate. Unfortunately, only my opinion, or is it? Since decades, we promote new technologies, but only smiled. Does anyone of you the saying: he who laughs last, laughs best ... http://www.topgreat.domains

The second aspect is to get the wars right now with the dirty oil again buoyant. That's all unnecessary and that the suffering of the many displaced persons, the sick and dead people just do not. When finally begins each state to take over the duty of his responsibility? http://www.erfolg.domains

So we have the ability, resources, and partly also the will to put an end to the comings and goings, but we do not do it out of convenience and corruption http://www.petermangold.com

Therefore, I am of the opinion that we should inserting us immediately for the preservation of peace through new technologies and the sustaining of common sense, no ifs and buts ... http://www.online-investment.club

There should be a duty of every human world to be wittmen the new technologies and the peace of their own profit. Provided anyone interested for it, he should start and set the course to do so before we will only daily hear of crime, discontent, corruption, diseases, murders and all social suffering, because it is sometime all people no longer granted to live a normal life now , Or even to survive. Let's think only appear at all the diseases from petroleum via cancer and lead to certain death. It is said so much, that people are getting smarter, but no one uses the intelligence for a reasonable equality between rich and poor.
It would be extremely easy if the State presents the means, or introduced. A banal simple thing, only of doing. http://www.online-investment-club.info

Salesforce unveils big push into Wearable Technology.

#wearabletech

Richard Platt's curator insight, October 19, 2014 12:09 AM

Salesforce has jumped into recent investments in wearable startups and an initiative to get developers to build applications that connect devices worn on the face, wrist and body with Salesforce’s technology.  Salesforce’s interest in wearables illustrates that in addition to being a dominant provider of business applications, the company is also a major computing platform that other developers use to access customers or actually run their own businesses, Irvine said. Wearables are just one emerging technology that will get attention at Dreamforce, and are part of Salesforce’s larger goal of capitalizing on the so-called Internet of Things, which refers to the increasing number of Internet connected devices that are spewing out unprecedented quantities of data that promise countless insights to come. - To get out front on the wearable trend, Salesforce in June launched Salesforce Wear to entice developers to create more enterprise applications for wearable devices, with support for devices from Samsung Electronics Co., Google and Pebble, among others.

Richard Platt's curator insight, October 17, 2014 12:19 AM

The two dimensional material, which is known as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), is pretty finicky about generating electricity. If it is stacked in an even number of layers, it doesn’t do anything. But use an odd number and stretch it in the right direction, and the electricity will start flowing.

Enterprise Wearables will Avoid BYOD Pitfalls

Enterprise Wearables will Avoid BYOD Pitfalls | Technology in Business Today | Scoop.it
Wearable devices made for the enterprise will offer more immediate value than BYOD programs. Here's why.
Farid Mheir's curator insight, September 10, 2014 9:06 AM

Finally the media seems to have shifted their attention from personal wearables to business-led applications of those wearables - except for yesterday's coverage of Apple iWatch. 


This article raises a good question : will you bring you wearable to work - your NFC smartphone can replace you company badge (or badges in case of consultant like me) - or will corporation issue you a company approved Google Glass or some other device? Anyone considering the introduction of wearable technology should consider this point carefully.


Say you want to introduce Google Glasses for all your field service employees so that they have access to the repair manuals and seamless hands-free communication to head-office experts for on-site support. Or you want to introduce an in-store order picking Glass solution to improve your eCommerce efficiency. Or maybe you have a use case for employee heart rate monitoring that drives a business case to reduce your insurance premiums. Short-term benefits will require you provide company issued devices - no one will buy a 1500$ Google glass today.


But in the mid-term, 2 or 3 years down the road, similar or competing devices may start to appear on the consumer market. Will you design your original solution to support BYOD or mandate the use of company devices, at the risk of alienating your employees with sub-par devices or multiple devices that are incompatible with one another?


Think about it, define a strategy and set a clear path towards it.
