Articles about two technology giants:
The Microsoft Store. That just doesn't sound as nice or as appealing as say, The Apple Store. But, Microsoft is giving it a go. They opened their first store back in 2009, and only have eight to date, which explains why I've never heard of or seen one. In theory, this sounds like a good plan to better compete with Apple, which is quickly taking over the market. But, in reality there are just too many problems that Microsoft has to deal with that Apple doesn't.
These Maine kindergarteners now have their own iPad2s. Why does a 5 year old need an iPad you might ask? To learn the alphabet of course. Teachers are finding that this touch activated tool is actually increasing child literacy rates, which is a good thing in my opinion. I just hope these kids don't decide to do any finger painting on these pricey gadgets.
