Bye-Bye MSFT Smart Watches
Microsoft’s Smart Personal Object Technology, also known as SPOT, was originally unveiled by Bill Gates a decade ago. It was a neat concept — using FM transmissions to deliver lightweight data services such as news headlines, sports scores, gas prices and weather to devices. It started with watches and later expanded to GPS navigation units and even a coffee maker.
Now, it is a goner! And, maybe not so smart!

Internet Explorer 10 First Browser With ‘Do Not Track’ by Default
When Microsoft’s Windows 8 arrives to a computer near you it will have Internet Explorer 10 in tow, and with that browser will come a “Do Not Track” feature that will automatically be turned on.
The privacy tool, which was backed by the Federal Trade Commission [FTC] earlier this year, enables internet users to indicate to websites that they don’t wish to have their browsing habits tracked.
Mozilla’s Firefox browser and Yahoo have been early endorsers of the feature, and Twitter recently welcomed the feature as well.

My Brief Take on Windows 8
I got some hands-on experience with Windows 8 last week and while I won’t say I’m in love, I’ll confess to being in like. I might also pester Ann, our ED, for a MSFT Surface tablet.
To be honest, I only spent about five minutes with Windows 8. But, for the first time in a long time, I’m feeling some excitement about a new OS and how it can help me work. And, I haven’t really felt like that for a long time.
How about you? Have you had a chance to try out Windows 8? Tell me if you have, and what you think in the comments box below.
