Facebook's Conference Call: The Highlights

Facebook's first public conference call went off without any major glitches, but without generating much enthusiasm either. The social network's shares remained at new lows after the call, down more than 11% to $23.80 in after-hours trading. Added to the intra-day fall and that price would put it down nearly a fifth from Wednesday's close.

Samsung's upgradable TV: DOA, unless the company reinvents itself | ExtremeTech

Samsung is billing its new Smart Evolution televisions as the definitive Next Big Thing in consumer display technology. The idea here is simple. You buy a television in 2012 with the Smart Evolution feature, and come 2013 (or presumably later) you'll be able to plug a kit into the display and upgrade the core CPU, RAM, and possibly other capabilities.

Investors turn entrepreneurs into insecure little teenagers

It's strange how entrepreneurs who are large risk takers and bold personalities turn into insecure little teenagers when facing investors. "Do they like me? Do they think I'm fat? Oh god, they thinks I'm stupid and my idea will fail. I WILL NEVER SUCCEED IN MY LIFE!"

Can Creativity be Automated? - Technology Review

Computer algorithms have started to write news stories, compose music, and pick hits. In 2004, New Zealander Ben Novak was just a guy with a couple of guitars and distant dreams of becoming a pop star. A year later one of Novak's songs, Turn Your Car Around, had invaded Europe's radio stations, becoming a top-10 hit.

Twitter-based Olympic cheer meter reveals who's winning ... on the sofas of the world

London 2012 starts today, and many of us will be glued to screens both large and small for the next 16 days. But while we're watching, we're probably also tweeting: cheering on our teams and our stars. And while NBC might be tracking who's winning in the arena, Socialbakers will be tracking who's winning in the stands.
