Google knows what it's doing, building a cloud based future one Pixel at a time.

So a business can outsource their processes but an employee is not allowed to outsource their business ?

I think this guy was a genius (although there have been reports it was a fake now)

iWatch or iPhone ?

Do you remember the concepts mooted when the original iPhone rumor first surfaced ? And do you remember seeing the iPhone for the first time and laughing at the pictures splashed all over the magazines a week before launch of a white phone with a jog-wheel ? It’s happening again, only this time with the iWatch.

Actually this was a stroke of genius, if you read the full details Weiner is taking LinkedIn into full on content marketing.

Very clever move.

Don't do it for the money

All well and good, but after being involved in duff outsourcing projects where the main reason is money, that's why it fails as a strategy.

So many depend on Facebook authentication for login, commenting, posting, marketing.....where does it end ?

Would be interesting to see how companies like myTab.co will survive this once FB expands into everything else.....

Missing the point

Missing the point, it has far more application outside of the consumer market than inside !

Medical, emergency services, customer service, engineering, advertising.....

Plus BMW were looking at AR for their technicians way back in 2007 (link in the article to a YouTube vid)

If Google manage this right with quality control over the application of it then it could fly. Vuzix are another company launching this to market.

Nexus of Farces.

Gartner has lost the plot entirely now. I love calling them out but this is priceless material for me.

I don't think it was just his blog that caused this....

There's been many more about other Tragic Quadrant reports. This year Gartner has faced a major backlash from some big vendors.

Not the first time is it !!!

They get every industry wrong, in some cases so off the mark it's incredible that they are still cited as a credible source of analysis.
