• Google bought Nest for $3.2 billion. I wonder what that bidding war was like. You’d have to believe that Apple and others were in on the purchase plan.
• And here’s why you might get a little concerned with this buyout.
• Will our devices spay on us? Perhaps.
• Google’s jumping in the spending lead of acquisitions for the past 2 years. Including Nest, Google spend $16.2 billion.
• Google also announced that it’s developing a bionic contact lens, which is waiting for FDA approval.
• Google released the Drive API so more developers can add Drive storage integration to their apps.
• Google Now is available for your Chrome browser. It works, but it’s kind of fuzzy. And you’ll need Canary.
• Fitness buffs will love the addition of an Android fitness API.
• Add a cute little star next to Gmail contacts.
• ASUS TF502T made its appearance.
• Data compression via Google Chrome is now available.
• Netgear has a new device called NeoMedicast. It’s designed for service providers like cable companies and not consumer. I don’t expect a terribly large number of secondary consumer purchases.
