Traffic in San Francisco Experiences Autonomous Test Cars by Uber

They have been testing self-driving cars in San Francisco, Pittsburgh and Arizona. Local news outlet with ABC reported that 'A car failed to yield to the autonomous SUV and hit it, authorities said. The self-driving SUV rolled onto its side as a result crash.' Uber also shut down development in Pittsburgh following the incident.

YouTube and Google Developing Additional Controls for Advertisers
Google and YouTube are in hot water over questionable content that is connected to international advertising companies such as AT&T, Verizon and Enterprise. The Wall Street Journal reported today that PepsiCo, Wal-Mart, Dish Network have stated they are suspending Google non-search ads. Google and YouTube made a statement covering their safeguards: Safer default for brands. We’re changing the default settings for ads so that they show on content that meets a higher level of brand safety and excludes potentially objectionable content that advertisers may prefer not to advertise against. Brands can opt in to advertise on broader types of content if they choose.
Scientists in Norway Developing Eco-Friendly Solar Cells with Enhanced Efficiency
Energy production is in a major state of transition. Technology companies such as Apple, Google, Tesla and Amazon are all investing in solar power. This is taking place at the same time as a preliminary budget has been sent to Congress that would defund the Environmental Protection Agency. The large tech companies are aware of the benefits to renewable energy. They have a large demand for power to cool their servers. Apple has reported to have had an excess amount of energy at times for utilizing renewable energy. The debate on cost for solar energy is over. Research how
Microsoft, Oracle and Google Compete with Amazon Web Services for Cloud Computing Services
Four of the largest tech companies, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Amazon continue to expand their cloud computing services and products. The competition is so intense, Google has a calculator on their cloud service website to compare prices with Amazon Web Services. It is smart business, as well as giving AWS an indirect plug. I suggest a company develop a website, like Orbitz for cloud computing, that displays the different companies, services, products, and prices in an organizable fashion. The website RightScale, is currently doing something similar to this idea. RightScale has a breakdown of their top four companies including: AWS,

Uber and Lyft Arrives in Carbondale, Illinois
Two of the biggest ride sharing companies, Uber and Lyft, have recently begun providing service in Carbondale, Illinois. The city of Carbondale has amended part of ordinance to allow Uber and Lyft to operate, but that amendment does not take place until April 1. This has resulted in fewer drivers on the road in March. With it being St. Patrick's Day, I hope the city would be comfortable for drivers to work on this holiday. After April 1, the two companies will have service widely available in Southern Illinois. One quick tip to using Uber and Lyft: download both applications,
Technology Trends Breaking Ground at SXSW Interactive 2017
SXSW Interactive provided multiple platforms for developers, designers and producers to learn more about managing digital content this past March 10-14. One way to find the upcoming tech trends and diamonds in the rough at SXSW is by going to the coding workshops and discussions. Keynote speakers will have more industry knowledge, but to find original ideas and a strong center of collective consciousness, guests will have to dive deep into interactive events. Hacking meet ups is an excellent way to network at SXSW. A popular trend that I noticed from one of the SXSW Interactive courses was the

In the past, when developers used the AWS Free Trail platform to host and develop Alexa Skills, they would be charged for overage use.

They will also have an option to receive an additional $100 per month in AWS promotional credits if they incur AWS usage charges for their component. This will help developers to build and host most of the Alexa skills. The company and Business Wire shared
