Carolyn Kaster, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With his political future tied irrevocably to President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden is still working to preserve his own distinct identity as he contemplates a third presidential run in 2016.
With nearly four years left in Obama's second term, it would be untoward for Biden to be openly self-promotional, and his advisers say he's focused on his current job. Still, with the jockeying for 2016 nominations already well under way, there's an advantage to staying part of the conversation. So the freewheeling man from Scranton, Pa., is polishing a reputation carefully nurtured over four decades in Washington, playing up his own strengths even as he stays fiercely loyal to his current boss.
"The good news is my dad understands that he works for the president, first and foremost," said Beau Biden, the vice president's son and Delaware's state attorney general. "I hope he takes a real, hard look at running, but now's not the time."
That time will come soon enough. In the meantime, the vice presidency has afforded Biden ample opportunities to keep his name in the spotlight without seeming overtly political. He's hit the pavement, keeping a strenuous schedule that would wear out many 70-year-old men.
On a Monday earlier this month, Biden hosted religious leaders for hours at a White House meeting on gun control, even though efforts to revive a failed bill had stalled. On Tuesday, he spoke about voting rights at an African-American think tank. He talked immigration with Asian-Americans at an awards dinner Wednesday, and the Boston bombings in a keynote address to firefighters on Thursday. By Friday, he was preparing to return home to Delaware, where he spends many weekends.
"Part of the challenge of being president is you have to be president. It doesn't give you time to go out and travel the country as you'd like," said Ron Klain, Biden's former chief of staff. He said the ability to deploy Biden as a surrogate for Obama has been a major asset for the White House.
As he moves from issue to issue with fluidity and unchecked enthusiasm, it's easy to see how the Biden brand — blue-collar, solidly liberal, disarmingly candid — could have distinct advantages when Democrats select their candidate for 2016.
Whether Democrats, in picking their first nominee to follow Obama, will sour on the notion of an "old, white guy" as their standard-bearer is an open question. Another factor in Biden's equation — and every conversation about 2016 — is Hillary Rodham Clinton, who Democratic insiders say would start out a heavy favorite if she seeks the nomination.
A match-up with his former Senate colleague, 2008 primary opponent and West Wing teammate would test the loyalties and relative influence of a number of key Democratic constituencies.
Fiercely popular with women and with strong bipartisan appeal, Clinton stands to gain from fond memories of a booming economy under her husband's presidency. Like Biden, she also lays claim to the Obama legacy. But Biden, on many issues, also has cast himself to the left of Obama, staking out ground that could make him an attractive alternative to Clinton for the party's liberal base in presidential primaries.
"When he takes on gun control or comes out ahead of the curve on gay marriage, he is also right where people are," said John Anzalone, a Democratic pollster who worked on Obama's re-election. "He's evolved just like everyone else."
Unlike Obama, whose appearances are carefully choreographed to leave nothing to chance, each of Biden's public events has an element of suspense. His supporters say his seeming inability to hide his true feelings about an issue speaks to an honesty and candor that are at the heart of his appeal. But White House officials have privately griped about the fallout and distractions when he struggles to stay on message in a highly politicized environment.

Slow deterioration in functioning of Sharon's vital organs, says hospital
Ariel Sharon..
(photo credit:REUTERS/Ronen Zvulun)
Former prime minister Ariel Sharon remained in critical condition on Friday with his life at risk, the head of the hospital treating him announced.Over the past day a slow deterioration in the functioning of the 85-year-old's vital organs has occurred, Prof. Ze'ev Rotstein, head of Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer said at a press conference Friday morning.Rotstein said tests indicated a blood infection among the ailments faced by Sharon.Asked by a reporter if Sharon was in his final days, Rotshein responded saying, "I personally feel so"."He is comfortable at this time. To the best of our understanding he is not suffering, such that we do not have to take any action to prevent him suffering," Rotstein said.His sons remained by his side.Sharon, who had been comatose for almost eight year following a stroke, was announced to have been in critical condition Thursday as plans for a state funeral began to be discussed behind the scenes.Sharon, now 85, had made clear that he preferred to be buried at his Negev home
– Sycamore Ranch – next to his late wife Lily and not in the traditional
grave-site for former prime ministers on Mount Herzl in the capital. The Prime
Minister's Office would handle arrangements for a funeral together with Sharon's
sons, Gilad and Omri.It was unclear on Thursday whether many world
leaders and foreign ministers would come to the funeral, as they have to the
recent funerals of former South African president Nelson Mandela and former
British prime minister Margaret Thatcher. US Secretary of State John Kerry spoke
warmly of Sharon in his Jerusalem press conference with Prime Minister Binyamin
Netanyahu.A close confidant of Sharon who visited his hospital bed on
Thursday told The Jerusalem Post that since he entered a coma after his stroke,
the former prime minister's family always hoped in vain that something would
happen that would enable him to return to his former health. He said it was
unclear how long Sharon would live."Nobody knows, not even the doctor,
how long he could hold on," the confidant said."If there is anything
positive that emerged from this, it is the response from the public. We
thought that after eight years nobody would care, but it's not
so."Saturday marks eight years since Sharon's severe second
stroke.At press time, Sharon remained in critical condition, and his
life remained in danger due to a deterioration in the function of vital organs, Rotstein said.Rotstein
told reporters that Sharon, who was reported to have been suffering from serious
kidney failure, was not on dialysis, but that doctors were administering
antibiotics due to numerous infections."He's getting all the treatment
necessary," Rotstein said. "I am no prophet, but the feeling of his doctors and
his sons is that there has been a change for the worse."Hospital
officials confirmed that not only Sharon's kidneys, but also other organs had
stopped working. They could not confirm reports that they were taking steps to
stabilize but not to improve his medical condition.Sharon's long-time
spokesman, Ra'anan Gissin, said, "There is no doubt that it is
terminal.We can't see any recovery or improvement in his health
condition."Gissin, who served as Sharon's spokesman for 15 years, said
he last saw him in the hospital some five years ago, and has stayed in touch
with Sharon's sons and former driver.Gissin characterized his former
boss as "not a person you can forget, he is in people's minds."He said
that he still meets people on the street who recognize him from his days at
Sharon's side, and say that they think about the former prime
minister.According to Gissin, Sharon was "fighting until the last
moment," something that indicated that his "life force is so strong. We need
people like him to continue the project of building the State of
Israel."Interior Minister Gideon Sa'ar told reporters on a tour of the
Jordan Valley that Sharon was "a warrior and a leader who is fighting at this
moment for his life."Economy Minister Naftali Bennett praised Sharon for
shaping the IDF's values, such as succeeding in a mission no matter the cost,
never leaving the wounded behind and the commander always being on the front
line."Certainly there are many of us (myself included) with great anger
about the expulsion of 8,000 Gush Katif residents from their homes and the
disastrous results for the citizens of Israel," Bennett wrote on his official
Facebook page. "But during these hours, while Sharon is fighting for his life,
we should remember his merits."In the Gaza Strip, a Hamas leader spoke
bitterly of a man the movement sees as one of the Palestinians' worst
enemies."Ariel Sharon is going the same direction as other tyrants and
criminals whose hands were covered in Palestinian blood," said the leader,
Khalil al-Hayya.There was no sympathy in the West Bank
either."God willing, he dies," said Rauf Ramia, a laborer from the
Kalandiya refugee camp, north of Jerusalem. "He's a terrible person."Reuters and Herb Keinon contributed to this report.

On tonight's episode of CBS's BAD TEACHER titled 'Daddy Issues,' Meredith sets her sights on dating her student Bronwen's wealthy father, but hits a roadblock when Bronwen won't give her permission to go out with him.
The episode airs Thursday, May 1 (9:31-10:01 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Ken Marino guest stars as Mike, Bronwen's father. Get a sneak peek below!
BAD TEACHER is a single camera comedy based on the hit feature film about an always inappropriate, fearless and unapologetic former trophy wife who masquerades as a teacher in order to find a new man after her wealthy husband leaves her penniless. Dumped, divorced and broke due to a bad pre-nup, Meredith Davis is inspired by her friend's smart, awkward stepdaughter, Lily, to devise the perfect three-step plan: 1) Pose as a teacher at Lily's ritzy middle school; 2) Meet and marry a rich single dad; 3) Return to a lavish lifestyle. Using a phony resume, quick-thinking Meredith effortlessly charms Principal Carl Gaines, who is easily duped and oblivious to her agenda.
The faculty includes Joel, her handsome former high school classmate-turned-gym teacher, who sees right through her, but is amused by her antics; Irene, a shy, introverted teacher who's overly excited at the possibility of making a best friend; and Ginny, the up-tight faculty president and busybody who resents Meredith and suspects something's fishy. Meredith may be the worst teacher ever, but she's the only one qualified to impart much-needed life lessons to Lily and her friends, while she keeps an eye out for husband #2.

Pregame Shootaround 12.5.12: Battle in Sunshine State highlights Wednesday's action
Dec 5, 2012, 2:00 PM EST
Each day, CollegeBasketballTalk brings you the "Pregame Shootaround," which will be posted at 2 p.m. ET and lay out a preview for the slate of games that night. We'll take a look at some key match-ups and important games, as well as make some predictions and point out what you need to watch for. Take a look below at today's edition:
Note: The weekend editions of Pregame Shootaround will be published half an hour prior to tip-off of the day's first game.
Game of the Day: No. 6 Florida vs. Florida State
With the way Kentucky's season is shaping up, those who chose Florida to win the SEC are looking pretty smart right now. The Gators are undefeated and have won their six games by an average of 25 points per contest. They feature a good backcourt/frontcourt balance between Kenny Boynton/Scottie Wilbekin and Patric Young/Erik Murphy/Will Yeguete, which makes them difficult to defeat. Mike Rosario, the Rutgers transfer, has also been a key contributor.
Florida State entered the season as a fringe Top 25 team, but lost its opener to South Alabama and comes into Wednesday night's game on a two-game losing streak after losses to No. 21 Minnesota and unranked Mercer. Guard Michael Snaer is key to the Seminoles' success. In their wins, Snaer is averaging 17.5 points and shooting 46 percent from the floor. In their losses, he is averaging just 9.7 points and shooting just 27 percent from the floor.
Who's getting upset?: Memphis against Ohio
Take one team that has fallen out of the Top 25 after a disappointing start the season and welcome a reigning Sweet 16 team and what do you get? The possibility for an upset at FedEx Forum tonight.
Guard D.J. Cooper is one of the most underrated playmakers in the country, averaging 14.7 points and 7.3 assists per game this season.The Bobcats' biggest weakness this season has been on the boards, but they shoot a high percentage and are in the Top 60 in the country in scoring.
Memphis guard Joe Jackson was criticized after his seven-turnover performance against VCU in the Battle 4 Atlantis, but, to his credit, has bounced back since. He is averaging 14.0 points and 5.5 assists in his past two games, both Memphis victories.
Mid-Major Match-Up of the Day: Penn State vs. La Salle (NBC Sports Network)
This is technically a mid-major vs. high-major match-up, but a few big wins for the Explorers make this one worth tuning in to. La Salle began its season with a win over a tough Delaware team, then followed that up with an overtime win over Villanova two weeks later. This game loses a bit of its intrigue because of the season-ending injury to Penn State guard Tim Frazier, but D.J. Newbill will still have his hands full with Explorer guards Tyreek Duren and Ramon Galloway.
Five Things to Watch For:
1) The Battle for the Sunshine State is on Wednesday, as No. 6 Florida takes on Florida State. See above for a full preview. I'm most interested to see Michael Snaer against this strong Florida lineup.
2) Why is no one talking about New Mexico? The 18th-ranked team in the country is perhaps overshadowed by San Diego State and UNLV in the Mountain West, but is undefeated so far. They take on USC Wednesday
3) Gonzaga has likely been the most impressive mid-major so far this season. Ranked at No. 10 in the country, Elias Harris & Co. get a shot at Washington State Wednesday night.
4) Fran Dunphy has his Temple Owls off to a 5-0, but they have their first match-up against a BCS opponent Wednesday night against Villanova. Nothing like a Big 5 game in early December.
5) Boise State narrowly lost to Michigan State, then beat No. 11 Creighton. They carried some of that Bluejay momentum to beat Seattle, and now they take on Utah. Will the Broncos end up being a surprise team this season?
The Rest of the Top 25:
No. 6 Florida vs. Florida State (see above)
No. 10 Gonzaga vs. Washington State
No. 18 New Mexico vs. USC
No. 19 Michigan State vs. Arkansas-Pine Bluff
No. 23 Oklahoma State vs. South Florida
Other Notable Games:
Tennessee vs. Virginia
West Virginia vs. Marshall
Temple vs. Villanova
Colorado State vs. Colorado

Bezos stop putting Gadgets out until they are ready. The Gimmick Fire Phone was a joke and an embarrassment. Echo will become the AMC Pacer of our generation. I get you want to control the home, and you feel you need a mobile device, but do not put out products until they are ready, and then give customers something they needed but didn't know they needed. Like Apple; they are never the first, but they are the best, and they know their customers. Please Bezos, take a brief timeout and breath
Oh, and hire someone that is not afraid to tell you "Stop Already"

5 Ways to Use Twitter to Avoid a Backchannel Disaster
Cliff Atkinson is author of The Backchannel: How Audiences are Using Twitter and Social Media and Changing Presentations Forever (New Riders, 2009).
Twitter is a free microblogging service founded in 2006 by Jack Dorsey and Biz Stone. At its heart are 140-character bursts of information called tweets. Users can include links to other content in their tweets, and broadcasts can be public or private. Celebrities, journalists, politicians and other public figures have established significant followings on Twitter. Media outlets in particular use Twitter as a way to broadcast breaking news.
Since its founding, Twitter has grown into a social media juggernaut, and popularity on the service is often used as a benchmark of influence. Companies have also used the service as a way to engage with their customers - offering promotions and other specials.
For basics on how to use the social network, check out The Beginner's Guide to Twitter.
Cliff Atkinson is author of The Backchannel: How Audiences are Using Twitter and Social Media and Changing Presentations Forever (New Riders, 2009).
We've already brought you a how-to guide to get started with Spotify (read that first if you don't know what it is), but now we're delving a little deeper into the music streaming software with a look at some hints, tips and tricks that will help you get the most of the service. Have a read below to see eight great ways to make your Spotify experience smoother, both within the service and via third-party services.
It seems hundreds of Twitter accounts have started to Tweet out "weight loss" product spam today. Specifically, users who have had their accounts hijacked are Tweeting the message "I lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks!" and links to diet sites. Our source counts over 200 rogue tweets so far tonight. It's not just new users getting caught out: famous tech pundit John C. Dvorak (@therealdvorak) got caught up in the attack, and was none too pleased.
Digital Sky Technologies, the Russian venture capital firm that has invested $400 million in Facebook, has apparently made an offer to buy a piece of Chatroulette, the webcam network where you can chat with random strangers. According to Spiegel Online, DST made an offer to 17-year-old Andrey Ternovskiy to buy a piece of his booming website. He has yet to say yes though, as he is traveling to the U.S. to speak with American venture capitalists before taking any investment.
Sarah Killen loves gummy dinosaurs, coke syrup, peanut butter and now Conan O'Brien. The Michigan gal -- not a fan of Russell Bigos, her sister-in-law's treadmill singing or cleaning -- happens to be the only person that the jilted late night personality follows on Twitter. Conan, who up until minutes ago wasn't following a single person, decided to change Sarah Killin's life by following her and her alone.
Mat Fogarty is the Founder and CEO of Crowdcast, a leading provider of collective intelligence and prediction market solutions. You can read more of Mat's posts on the Crowdcast blog or follow @crowdcastinc. Collaboration and crowdsourcing are the realities of today's public Internet, and the trend is now gaining real traction in the workplace. Smart companies increasingly understand that their richest source of insight, ideas, data, and information is within their own employees.
The second annual Shorty Awards ceremony went down this week in New York City, honoring the community-nominated and voted on best of the best from Twitter. Awards were given in 26 official categories as well as a huge selection of crowdsourced community categories. The Twitter community was invited to contribute nominations beginning this January, with the intent of recognizing a user's overall Twitter stream as opposed to particular tweets.
Don't get us wrong, we love YouTube's new automatic captioning feature. A couple of years ago it was almost unimaginable that someone (or something) could take videos, convert speech to text, then translate that text into 20 or 30 languages, and do it all automatically, in a blink of an eye. But we also know that machine translation is not even near replacing human translation, and speech recognition isn't exactly perfect yet.
It's official: Twitter has surpassed 10 billion tweets. While Gigatweet's counter is down due to over-traffic, you can tell by the actual tweet ID numbers that we have crossed the magical threshold. The milestone shows that Twitter's still growing at a rapid pace: It broke one billion tweets in November 2008 and five billion tweets just four months ago. So who was the lucky person that sent out tweet 10 billionth tweet? We're checking now and will let you know ASAP.
Twitter may be valued at $1.4 billion, but it's definitely not a smart buy in Suze Orman's opinion. Well, that is if you're Mark Z., a 25-year-old degreeless professional with $300 million in liquid assets, $4 billion in Facebook stock, $2,500 in monthly expenses and no debt. In her latest "Can I Afford It" segment, Orman strongly advises Mark Z. -- an obvious reference to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg -- against buying Twitter.
Spotify is a free, legal, cloud-based streaming music service delivered via desktop software with a nice social twist. A Swedish start-up with offices in London, it launched back in 2008 in Europe and now boasts around five million users and around six million tracks from the major labels as well as a ton of independents. Currently only available in Sweden, Norway, Finland, the UK, France and Spain (technically), Spotify has previously talked about plans for expansion -- including a U.S.
For the moment, the valuations we have for private companies like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn are based mostly on what we know from venture capital investments. SharesPost, however, is a company that lets owners of shares in private companies sell them to prospective buyers, and it has just released an index detailing valuations of some of the most prominent companies in the social media space.
Dallas Lawrence is Chair of the Social and Digital Media Practice at Levick Strategic Communications, the nation's top crisis communications firm. He blogs on emerging digital media trends and best practices for social media engagement on Bulletproof Blog. Connect with him on Twitter @dallaslawrence. If there was any doubt before last year as to social media's ability to exacerbate reputation crises, 2009 settled the debate.
Digital measurement firm comScore released a study today highlighting the rise in social media access via mobile phones and offering some comparison metrics for some of the biggest social networks and their usage on mobile devices. comScore measured the changes in both mobile browser access to social networks and the access numbers to specific social networks from January 2009 to January 2010.
It takes a village to raise a Conan O'Brien tweet. Now that the (former...) late night funnyman has officially joined the Twitterverse, he revealed in a recent tweet the extensive army required to keep Team Coco afloat. Obviously, being funny in 140 characters or less is just too much for one man. Even if that man is Coco. [img credit: the man, the myth, the legend: Conan O'Brien] [via URLesque].
This guest post was written by San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom, who was elected to the position in 2003 and reelected in 2007. In this guest post, Mayor Newsom announces the launch of a national open platform for 311 Customer Service Centers on which developers can build applications. Almost every city in the country has a 311 Customer Service Center providing residents answers about city services, and a way to report potholes, graffiti or other issues.
About one year ago Twitter reached a huge milestone: one billion tweets. Four months ago, five billion tweets were served. And now, in about one day, Twitter should reach another very important milestone: 10 billion tweets. Notice the trend? Although Twitter has been somewhat struggling with traffic (compared to its earlier immense growth) in the last couple of months, it still managed to go from five to ten billion tweets in four months; quite a remarkable achievement.
Hulu's first foray into original programming — a reality show called If I Can Dream — premiered today with a 25-minute pilot episode. We've embedded it below so you can watch it right here. The premiere was accompanied by a big roll-out of features that set the series apart from what you've seen on network television. Live 24/7 video, social networking profiles and lifestreams all play a part in engaging viewers in the cast members' lives.
Geeks and LEGO seem to go together like mac and cheese (or Macs and Apples, even) with tons of fan-made geek-inspired creations to be found in every corner of the interweb, including the LEGO Flickr group. From both full-time, professional LEGO artists to those who just have a penchant for the colorful little Danish building blocks, we bring you a great gallery of LEGO sculptures that are inspired by the world of tech, online and social media.
Companies are mining the social web to build dossiers on you. Information posted publicly on blogs, Facebook, Twitter, forums and other sites is fair game. It is yet another reminder that people need to be aware of what they are posting on social networking sites and to whom they're connected. Jules Polonetsky, director and co-chair of the Future of Privacy Forum, said online users have no clue that a comment they made on a blog is being added to a database for some unknown use.
CoTweet, the Twitter CRM tool used by several massive brands including JetBlue and Ford, has been acquired by ExactTarget, an email marketing firm.
Popular professional Twitter app maker HootSuite has just updated its iPhone app and released three new mobile applications. HootSuite's mobile arsenal now includes a total of four apps -- iPhone and Android apps in both full and free versions. You may recall that HootSuite's iPhone app retails for $1.99 and is designed to appeal to business Twitter users with a robust functionality that includes unlimited account support and stats and analytics on shared media.
I know what you may be thinking: Twitter location API already supports places; that's why they call it the location API, right? Well, yes and no. Currently, it supports latitude and longitude, which tells the world where, exactly, you were located when you tweeted.
Another wave of Twitter phishing has erupted this afternoon, with a spat of direct messages that read "somebody wrote something about you in this blog here" with a link to an ominous short URL. That short URL asks users to log in to Twitter, but one look at your browser's address bar indicates that it is not Twitter you're logging into, but a third-party site that looks like Twitter.
Twitter has just announced that it has opened up its full data feed of all public tweets -- a.k.a. the "Firehose" -- to seven new startups, and is looking to partner with more to give them access to the data. Currently, only a few partners have access to one of Twitter's most valuable assets: its stream of tweets. They include search giants Google, Microsoft and Yahoo. It's believed that these deals have already made Twitter profitable.
Professors who wish to engage students during large lectures face an uphill battle. Not only is it a logistical impossibility for 200+ students to actively participate in a 90 minute lecture, but the downward sloping cone-shape of a lecture hall induces a one-to-many conversation. This problem is compounded by the recent budget cuts that have squeezed ever more students into each room.
This past week it seems Twitter was all about entertainment, with Justin Bieber, the Olympics, and the Jonas Brothers on the tips of everyone's fingers. Our friends at What The Trend have provided an overview of the most tweeted topics this past week. Because this is a topical list, hashtag memes and games have been omitted from the chart. For the avid tweeter, it may come as no surprise that the young Canadian pop star Justin Bieber continued to trend this week, hitting the top spot.
Not getting Twitter updates today? It's not just you -- a number of users have reported the same, with blogger Dave Winer saying his Twitter account has been stalled for eight hours. Popular Twitter app TweetDeck added, "Apparently Twitter is having problems: No Twitter timeline updates for several hours for many users," linking to a post by TheNextWeb that reported the same. A Twitter search for "Twitter timeline", meanwhile, confirms that the issue is affecting a number of users.

With Twitter phishing attacks in the news last week, it's perhaps unsurprising that musician Jason Mraz (@jason_mraz) has seen his Twitter account compromised today. Mraz's account is currently sending out links to a Cost Per Action offers site that appears to add $9.99 to your phone bill if you follow through with the request.

A woman was able to track down her missing sister-in-law today thanks to the help of a fellow Twitter user.

But one reader, Sheryl Breuker, shared a personal story with us in the comments about the true power of social media in crisis situations.
The magnitude-8.8 earthquake that rocked Chile early this morning was similar to many breaking-news events in that images from the disaster began spreading over social networks at lightning speed.

Connected devices and the Internet of Things are getting significant momentum in 2014. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Hunter, Chief Scientist & Technology Evangelist at Greenwave Systems, examined three key elements that together will drive mass adoption of the IoT before the end of 2015. The first element is the recent advent of robust open source protocols (like AllJoyn and WebRTC) that facilitate M2M communication. The second is broad availability of flexible, cost-effective storage designed to handle the massive surge in back-end data in a world where timely analytics is e...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Primitive Living., This is my tweaked living room. I changed all the furniture around after having my space up on RMS. I am making shutters for the other two windows to match the window behind the couch. I love clutter and the primitive style. No snippy comments please. Suggestions from those who like this style are welcome because I have used so many of them allready. , , Living Rooms Design
