Challenger for the long standing qwerty keyboard ...
Interesting history to the qwerty keyboard. Original design of the qwerty keyboard is no longer relevant but we are now so used to it that change is going to be difficult!
Will the Kalq keyboard finally spell the end for qwerty? | Technology | The Guardian:

Google unveils Project Loon
Whatever next you might ask ...
OK, so these balloons are at twice the height that commercial jetliners fly and they stay up for 100 days. What happens to them on day 101? Do they fall back to Earth and the jetliners just fly between them as they fall?
Google unveils Project Loon, aims to use balloons to provide internet to the world - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation):

Facebook usage data
Some vaguely interesting Facebook usage data ...
The relationship data is quite interesting! Not sure why there is a dip in the "married" graph at 20! There seems to be a lot married at age 5!
Facebook usage data reveals just how ‘depressingly stereotypical’ your life probably is | VentureBeat:

Facebook users feel 'stuck'
Interesting although limited research ...
Still struggling with the value of Facebook (or Google+). Keep thinking I should be using it more often but then I look at it and find little to interest me. Facebook has about a billion users whilst Google+ only has 400 million! Personally I much prefer Google+ as it has less advertising and is simpler to use. I am on both if you can find me!
Facebook users feel 'stuck': According to a survey conducted by a postgraduate at USyd, Facebook users are over the experience - but feel stuck with it as a means of keeping in touch.
