Google's Post-Mobile Future
Speed Philippines|December 2017
Google had the biggest and most impressive product launch event last October. Not only did the search giant unveil its successor to the Pixel and Pixel XL lines, which is what many expected, it also unloaded a bevy of new gadgets: Google Home assistants, new Daydream VR headsets, a stunning yet expensive pen-enabled Chromebook convertible laptop, and new Pixel Buds Bluetooth headsets that are supposed to be able to translate 40 languages in real time.

Google also unveiled Google Clips, which puts the power of Google Photos in a smart GoPro-sized camera that constantly shoots photos and videos using algorithms and by learning about the subjects it is capturing.

Google’s A.I. is the next level

The most important thing about this event was that Google changed the conversation. It is competing with Apple and Samsung in smartphones and it seems to be counter punching Microsoft’s Surface line as well. The new Pixel phones are solid handsets and capable competitors to premium devices out there. They match up in specs and sizing, and even feature impressive computational photography that they say can beat even dual camera setups in quality.

STARDEW VALLEY SUPREMACY

Stardew Valley is definitely one of the most successful and most popular indie games to have come out in the last few years. What started out as a fan-made alternative to Harvest Moon (Back to Nature is definitely one of my ultimate favorite games of all time), the game eventually received financial support and a cult following, paving the way for its release in 2016. By 2020, the game has sold over 10 million copies.
