Two AirTags patent applications have been published today, describing an extremely wide array of potential applications, from locating the nearest defibrillator to monitoring our posture – and even playing avatar-based games. Patents are often worded in the broadest possible terms, so there’s, of course, no way to know which of these ideas Apple might pursue, but there are certainly some interesting concepts in the mix … Patently Apple refers to these particularly broad patents as ‘master patents....

Algoriddim actually relied greatly on djay Pro for iOS to bring the professional DJ software to Windows… Remember Microsoft’s Bridge tool for iOS that launched a few years ago — djay Pro for Windows largely relied on that for turning djay Pro for iOS into a working Windows app....

Dancing With The Stars season 24 proved to be a very entertaining series of the long-running reality show, but which celebrities signed up to be contestants? Dancing With The Stars is based on the hit BBC series Strictly Come Dancing, which first aired in 2004. The premise of the show has a group of celebrities train with a dance partner each week to come with a dance routine based on a particular theme, with contestants eliminated week by week until only the winner remains....

American Gods is expected to return for season 3, despite the behind the scenes problems that plagued production on season 2. The first season of American Gods earned rave reviews for its lush and sometimes psychedelic imagery, as well as its general dream-like atmosphere and tone. Unfortunately, showrunners Bryan Fuller and Michal Green’s adaptation of the Neil Gaiman novel also cost a pretty penny to make. As a result, the pair clashed with Starz over their proposed budget for season 2, which ultimately led to Fuller and Green departing the series altogether in late 2017....

According to research from Chetan Sharma Consulting, the amount of text messages sent during Q3 2012 showed the first decline ever. The fall can be attributed to Apple’s iMessages (when it is up), along with other Internet services like Facebook Messaging, Skype, AIM, Google Voice and more that use Wi-Fi. With less text messages being sent monthly, this has lead to less revenue in the text message area for carriers, however, they are still making plenty of money off data....

Amy Schumer appears to have found her next movie project, in the form of I Feel Pretty. Few comedians can claim the degree of success that Schumer has been enjoying as of late. Having made a name for herself with her multiple Emmy award-winning series Inside Amy Schumer, the no-holds barred talent has been navigating a steady rise from TV to film. Although Schumer’s sense of humor isn’t necessarily for everyone, the success of Judd Apatow’s Trainwreck back in 2015 (which Schumer both headlined and wrote) proved she’s a bankable comedic star....

The standard security protections used for workstations and servers are not in place for most mobile devices, so mobile devices may not be protected by firewalls, encryption, antivirus or endpoint detection and response. However, these devices are often connected to cloud services, business emails and other applications that put companies at risk....

So why talk about Big Launcher? My best friend’s older father. Not only is he completely technology-illiterate. He also has failing eyesight. However, he still uses three things on his phone — Voice, SMS (texting) and the Camera. To say the least, finding a phone that works for him has proved to be quite a challenge. After doing some digging around for specialized phones that match his needs, I found out two things:...

Well, we were kinda expecting Adobe to make a move following the Final Cut Pro X outrage and today the company formally announced the “switcher program” that offers a cool 50 percent discount to Final Cut Pro or Avid Media users who defect to Adobe Premiere Pro (the offer ends September 30, 2011). The promotion arrives on the heels of recent success stories Adobe has been promoting on its website and applies to any Final Cut Pro or Avid Media Composer purchase....

The new suits have been put in place in order to “align and strengthen the company’s focus on major customer segments and enable these customers to create, deliver and optimize digital experiences across a wide range of media and devices,” the company said....

The good news is that there’s a lot more to like about Affable than just its name. It’s only been around since 2017, but the platform has the look, feel, and functionality of fully matured enterprise software. That’s because the team is very heavy on software development talent, complemented by others with marketing expertise—and there’s a clear synergy between these two vastly different skill sets. The AI algorithms that power Affable were built from the ground up by the in-house team; they’re out crawling the social web daily and pulling in mountains of data that’s helpful to both brands and agencies....
