The mobile maker Microsoft acquired for $500 million back in 2008 in the hopes of firing up its mobile fortunes?

Here are the five things I learned installing a smart mirror | TechCrunch
I recently received a review unit of the Embrace Smart Mirror. It’s essentially a 24-inch Android tablet mounted behind a roughly 40-inch mirror. It works well when third-party software is installed. Here’s what I learned. It’s impossible to get a good photo of the smart mirror I tried a tripod, a selfie stick and every possible angle and I couldn’t get a picture that does this mirror justice. It
NIST declares the age of SMS-based 2-factor authentication over | TechCrunch
NIST declares the age of SMS-based 2-factor authentication over 2-factor authentication is a great thing to have, and more and more services are making it a standard feature. But one of the go-to methods for sending 2FA notifications, SMS, is being left in the dust by the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Analysis Of Apple's A5: It's Not What We Know, It's What We Don't Know | TechCrunch

Apple was now designing their own chips, isn’t that great?— came the echoing chorus. But they weren’t — the A4 was almost entirely a Samsung design implementing existing ARM processor tech. But Apple touched it, so it turned to gold. I kin
From NTT's Showroom In Tokyo: Next-Generation Digital Signage System (Videos) | TechCrunch
