from TechByter Worldwide (formerly Technology Corner) with Bill Blinn · host Bill Blinn
Don't look now, but your phone or tablet may be sharing information you don't want to share. Three years ago, I wondered why anyone would want a color ebook reader; this year, I wonder if anyone can find a monochrome book reader. In Short Circuits: Facebook's founder wants to spread wireless Internet access worldwide. YouTube releases a new version of its app for Apple and Android devices. A big battery on your Iphone can double as a wimpy taser. And Netflix gains exclusive access to Weinstein films, but not until 2014.
