Companies Trying To Make The Best Out Of Technology...

As we all know we are in a generation based on technology, everything has to do with it now days and companies of every industry all over the world are trying to make a transition within all their services because in my opinion by doing so, will be the only way to ''survive'' in these times.

Take Google for example, one of the biggest companies in the world are planning to work out a way of installing near-field-communication readers or NFC which is a set of short range wireless technologies. Google wants to install NFC readers in merchant locations so that consumers may tap their devices against registers to pay for the products they are purchasing; I am sure that this method will facilitate customers on making payments, it is estimated that this type of technology will replace credit cards, debit cards, gift cards.

Continuing with technology, MySpace is trying to revive its brand by getting into the artistic world. It has been written that MySpace is pushing its boundaries by representatives of the company attending different types of event such as concerts and film festivals, they are pushing hard to in a sort of way to ''revive''. On the other hand web users are visiting MySpace less and less, making it hard for them to make a revival happen. It is going to hard for MySpace to be saved, what do you think?...

Last but not least MySpace's ''competition'' Facebook has been granted a new search patent that concentrates on search results based on the preferences of someone's personal network. This method gives the user bigger networking possibilities with not only your friends but with ''friends of friends of friends'' so any search results will be matched with your profile settings and most definitely will give you are exact search of what you are looking for, which means less popular option when searching.

Technology keeps on making life a little easier for everyone... If we may say that...

  1. As time passes by, technology continues to grow at a very fast pace. This growth in technology benefits users in every way. Not too long ago, I was talking to my mom about how different were her years in college. There was no computers; therefore, there was no Google. People spent many hours researching information in books at the library. Now, with the help of the technology all the information we need is at a touch of a button. Not only technology allows us to research, but now with the Google's NFC technology we can store our credit and debit cards information to make payments. I don't know about you, but I think this is pretty cool.
