US Election 

  • There was nothing else on TV so we all watched the US Election.
  • Arik brings up a point about how analytics wins The hard data analytics won!
  • Bosco brings up Donald Trumps rant on Twitter
  • Participatory Democracy will we be voting on everything via our smart phones in the future.
  • Digital voting would remove the barrier to entry
  • James will gamify the election.
  • Only people with a high Klout score should be able to vote

Marijuana legalized in a few states

  • How will it affect Canada? Will we follow the lead of Washington and Colorado?
  • Still a controlled substance federally. The Federal Government may still enforce it.
  • Too many threatened industries with Marijuana cotton, big pharma.

iFone vs iPhone

  • Apple sues iFone in Mexico even though iFone had the brand four years before the iPhone came out.
  • Apple lost the case and can no longer sell the iPhone under the iPhone name
  • Now, iFone is suing Apple for damages
  • Apple is being a little too sue happy and they are getting some of their own now.

Microsoft is making their own phone?

  • They came out with the surface and rumours are they are coming out with their own phone.
  • Arik says that it coming out with their own hardware is a bad move. The future is not in hardware but is the user interface. MS is placed best in the marketplace to bring out a UI that everyone adopts. Wearable technology software in the cloud.
  • Windows 8 UI is touch screen based and the timing is good. The population is trained to use touch screens now.
  • Voice Command, eye tracking, glasses Bob likes the iTooth.
  • James likes the iCondom alarm sound when diseases are detected.
