As the annual Barcelona bash approaches, I take a look back at the best from last year’s show and ask a few industry luminaries about 2010’s hottest trends. Plus, a sneak peak at some new and exciting products.
Is Sweden the New Silicon Valley?
In this special report, I travel to Sweden to meet a whole host of innovative tech companies and startups. But can Scandinavia live up to the claim that it might be the next Silicon Valley? Watch the video to find out!
T-Mobile & Orange create UK mobile monster
UK mobile networks Orange and T-Mobile have announced a 50:50 joint venture that will create the nation’s largest mobile phone operator with roughly 28 million customers,or 37 per cent of total UK mobile subscribers.
Writing in Capital Letters is NOT a Capital OFFENCE
A woman from New Zealand has been sacked from her job for sending emails in CAPITAL LETTERS. Her co-workers complained to management that her emails “spread disharmony” amongst the staff, claiming her emails came off “rude and confrontational”.
Purity & the iPhone
A purity app for the iPhone? How very Jonas Brothers. A Christian iPhone App Development Agency is capitalizing on abstinence (yes you can make money from nothing) by launching a PurityRing iPhone App for 99 cents.
Sony Ericsson Pitch Black feat. Friendly Fires
Sony Ericsson along with English indie band Friendly Fires have created an intense new music concept called Pitch Black. The intimate gig was held in a secret location in London where only 200 attendees including TelecomTV experienced music with no light.
The Peter Pan of Pop
The revolution will not be televised. As I saw tonight with the death of Michael Jackson, news broke on gossip blog TMZ and social media sites well over an hour before mainstream outlets confirmed he’d passed away. Ask a young person where they were when they heard the news- and I guarantee most will say on Twitter or Facebook.
(Flashback- When I was a little girl in Lebanon, I used to have MJ trading cards. I remember telling my mom that when I was older I wanted to marry him.)
MJ was a legend.. and for that – here’s a video I took last Christmas when I was back home in Brooklyn. Mini MJ, as I like to call him, was dancing in Grand Central Station.
