on 05/10/2013
Excerpt: It’s been two years since Google launched its mobile payments platform, Google Wallet, but the initiative has been slow to take off. The company had reportedly planned to launch a plastic card that could be used at merchants who don’t accept tap-and-go NFC payments. On Friday, though, AllThingsD reported that Google has abandoned the idea. AllThingsD said the change of plan was included in a memo that also announced the departure of Google Wallet head Osama Bedier.

Excerpt: Google on Friday announced the launch of a photo sphere viewing widget that you can embed in any website.

Excerpt: eBay recently announced it will follow Google, Amazon, and Facebook’s lead and allow third-party marketers to access eBay’s user data for targeted advertising outside of the eBay ecosystem (i. e. on the third-party’s website).

Excerpt: Google Glass might be having a few issues of late, but if you're not impressed by the idea of wearing glasses constantly and winking to take pictures, you might have another option before long.

The device would have familiar Smartwatch functions such as a display, processor and wireless connection - presumably to an Android phone or tablet.... read the full post.
