With so many consumer electronics devices on the market, it is hard to find enough space to store all your gadgets, much less charge them all! While technological growth has expanded incredibly fast over the past decade, housing requirements have not; the standards for the spacing and number of electrical devices in new buildings have not adjusted for the sheer volume of devices one might plug in these days. Fortunately, for the tech savvy consumer who has a lot they need to recharge, there is the Chargepod.
Every great idea in the tech sector requires good people to execute. No matter how clever or constructive a concept is, without the right technical people to execute the plan, a business or ambitious idea will fail. So when a number of influential individuals in finance, education and business began departing their lucrative careers to form the Khan Academy, some of their most important hiring choices involved staffing their technical support positions. That made Marcia Lee an important hire for the Khan Academy.
There are hundreds of choices when shopping for a new car. You have to decide on type (car, truck, SUV, etc), maker (Ford, Nissan, Honda, etc), price range, size, model, and so many other options. On the other hand, if you are looking into electric cars or hybrid models, there are very few models to choose from among the large car manufacturers. However, smaller car companies are introducing new models of electric cars, for instance: Tesla Motors’ new Model X.
So far in computer technology, there remains one enduring truth about laptop computers. It seems no matter how advanced laptop computers become, they all warm up and get so hot that one either needs to cool the laptop off quickly or risk damage to the chips and drives within. Unfortunately, that means that almost immediately after investing in a new laptop computer, you are likely to need to buy a cooling peripheral. Given that this is a pretty necessary expense, you might as well go with one of the best cooling products for laptop computers. The Arctic Cooling Pad is a great way to keep your laptop computer cool!
While the computer mouse is a pretty indispensible peripheral for computer users, with so many different types of computer mice on the market, it is hard for many companies to market a sophisticated computer mouse. As the price of the basic computer mouse and even the basic optical mouse with scrollwheel has dropped, the higher end computer mouse companies have had to work much harder to sell users on their more expensive computer mice. When Movea acquired Gyration, the maker of the Air Mouse line of premium computer mice, it seemed like continuing the Air Mouse line might be unprofitable. But Bryan Hoadley has seamlessly integrated Gyration into the Movea family.
Amazon.com is the largest online retailer in America and the company has made huge profits from its ability to sell almost any product to customers all over the world. Over the last year, though, Amazon has begun to focus more on eBooks. The company has even gotten to the point of announcing plans to publish exclusively on and for Amazon.
If imitation is the highest form of flattery, then Pinterest has a lot to feel flattered about! In addition to enjoying a lot of press in the online media, Pinterest is the concept that many new social networking sites appear to be trying to imitate. Pinterest allows you to “pin” any image you find on the Internet to your bulletin board on Pinterest to share with your friends and followers. You and your friends may comment on the pictures and the site inspires some very lively discussions.
Sometimes, the very best thing for a technology company is an outsider who understands the products and goals of the company, without necessarily understanding all of the intricacies of the business. It takes a fairly daring company to grant a seat on the Board of Directors to an individual who has vision, but not business experience. In the case of Sigma-Aldrich, one of the world’s leading scientific equipment manufacturers, the company took a calculated risk when it hired Rebecca M. Bergman directly to the Board.
