The future is almost here! The future of tech that is! Now all we’re waiting for is the invention of flying cars… Everyone in the tech world have been raving about the latest technology in augmented reality glasses. Google recently announced their ambitious Project Glass, which allows users to send messages, use maps, take pictures [...]
The #teamtalkTECH attended the Google & NewME accelerator at The Googleplex on February 21, and wanted to share the highlights of our notes: The event started with an intro by Google’s Head of Global Entrepreneurship Mary Himinkool, followed by several pitches from minority owned startups and feedback from a judges panel that consisted of “Black [...]
The GOP Presidential primary debate aired this week, but I opted out because I want to keep my IQ higher than Michele Bachmann’s. Sorry GOP, I’m not a huge fan of discriminatory generalizations and illogical arguments. What I am a huge fan of is Lil’ Wayne. This week, Tunechi set a new iTunes record with [...]
Anderson Cooper has been reporting the news for 20 some-odd years and is my personal favorite talking head. If his contemplative stare and elfish good looks weren’t enough to make you tune in to Anderson Cooper 360, watch this clip of Anderson struggling to keep his composure during a segment of “The RidicuList.” Anderson reports [...]
The medical world has finally caught on to what I’ve known for years – technology is bad for kids.

Now that the 4th of July is over, I can continue my usual, hyper-critical, love/hate relationship with America. Previews for the new superhero film, “Captain America,” are colonizing commercial spots on every TV network. Why Captain America’s production team chose the white-guy-from-Brooklyn-running-around-blowing-shit-up-saving-the-world-and-getting-the-girl storyline is beyond me. Captain America should be removing Native Americans from their [...]
If you haven’t already heard of Google+, say you were busy preparing for Carmageddon and are just now getting back into the swing of things (I’ve taken notice – this is the ultimate excuse for anything!) For those who aren’t in the know or haven’t really taken interest in Google+ as of yet, I’ve compiled [...]
