New Nexus 7 Promotional Video

New Nexus 7 Promotional Video

The next generation Nexus 7 tablet has certainly been talked about the past couple of days, and there are already analysts going around touting that the Apple iPad, which seemed invincible to other tablets, will finally see its market share drop. Google has finally put up their official promotional video for the newly released Nexus 7, where the title of the promotional video is "Fear Less". Nice word play there, G. Having said that, it is the very same video which was shown at the Google breakfast event, but at least if you were not able to attend back a couple of days ago, here it is for your perusal.

Furby Now Speaks Japanese

Furby made a bid to be a hot selling toy last Christmas with a revamped rollout in 2012, which was a vast improvement over the first generation Furby that rolled out 15 years ago, sending parents into a Furby frenzy back then. Well, here we are with a spanking new generation of Furbies, where these will feature LCD eyes as well as the ability to interface with a smartphone app.

Chromecast Support For Google TV Confirmed

Chromecast Support For Google TV Confirmed

At its event yesterday, Google announced Chromecast. A $35 HDMI dongle that lets users “cast” content from their nearby devices such as smartphones, tablets and computers to the TV. By no means is Chromecast itself a “smart TV,” it doesn't come with TV centric apps. Its just a dongle that lets users mirror the content from their devices. On the other hand, Google TV is a full fledged smart TV solution, and the company has confirmed that it will be getting Chromecast support soon through an update.

The announcement was made by Warren Rehman of Google.

Google confirms Chromecast support is coming to Google TV

Google has declared that Google TV is not dead, and it did that with some great news for Chromecast fans. Googler Warren Rehman has confirmed that Chromecast support will be coming to the Google TV platform sometime soon. The engineer didn't give many more details than that — such as when and how support will be arriving — but he did confirm it. That post was piggy-backed on a post from the Google TV Developers Google+ account, where it mentioned Google is still working to bring many new hardware and content partners over to the platform.

Citroën has released the first images of its latest racecar, the C-Elysee, which will be contested by Sebastien Loeb in the World Touring Car Championship next year. Based on the C-Elysee sedan, a model first shown at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, the WTCC variant has been designed for the new regulations set to be imposed by the FIA. The C-Elysee is offered with a range of low-powered gas and diesel engines, but the WTCC model gets a 1.6-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder with 380 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed sequential gearbox from Sadev sends power to the front wheels through a twin-disk, carbon-fiber clutch.
