A Look At Google's Knowledge Graph
(The New Yorker) Google introduced a new technology called Google Knowledge Graph. In the short-term, it will not make a big difference in your world. But what’s under the hood represents a significant change in engineering. And more than that, in a decade or two, scientists and journalists may well look back at this moment as the dividing line between machines that dredged massive amounts of data and machines that started to think, just a little bit, like people. It’s refreshing to see that computer engineers still occasionally need to steal a page from the human mind.

(Search Engine Watch) Knowledge Graph? That's old news. Baidu is claiming this is not new as the Chinese search giant has been dabbling in semantic search since 2009.

The tablet was a strange, overpriced beast for Cisco. While the general idea with this tablet wasn't bad, the way Cisco went about it was odd. Cius was supposed to represent a new breed of communications for the enterprise and it didn't sell Cius to consumers either. It could only be bought by companies, so it never really sold well.
Read » Project Glass Becoming Even More Of A Reality (PocketLint) Google’s Project Glass eyewear has taken yet another step in becoming a reality after a video shot through the glasses was posted on the company’s Google+ account. The video clip is only 15 seconds long and the type of technology we can expect from the augmented reality glasses is still limited. However, it does suggest that
