New Wii Announced

Apparently the Nintendo Wii may be being remade into a more powerful gaming system. It is believed that the new Wii may be more powerful than the PS3 or Xbox 360. This seems unlikely given the high price of producing PS3s but only time will tell. The excerpt from the article tells more.

"The news, first reported by Game Informer who cited anonymous sources in their report today, confirms rumors that have been swirling for months in the wake of slowing game releases from Nintendo.

Furthermore, we've heard that the machine will be more powerful than current-gen systems, meaning Nintendo, currently backing a Wii that is weaker in horsepower than the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, will be showing a new console that is more powerful than those current competitors.

Update: Nintendo responded to our inquiry with a standard "Nintendo does not comment on rumor or speculation"."

Will work for energy: jobs robots are stealing

In the future these 9 jobs will be stolen by robots. You have been warned
pharmacists
lawyers
drivers
astronauts
store clerks
soldiers (potentially with flamethrowers)
babysitters
rescuers
sportswriters/ reporters

These do make logical sense. Unlike most all sentient beings robots are continually updated to meet the current day surroundings. Judging by number 2 I will need a career change.

You have been warned, good luck gents.

Mobile Banking Jump

In the fourth quarter of last year mobile banking jumped by an astounding 54 percent. many people, myself included, synced their various accounts to mobile devices during the holiday season. 11 million people are using a mobile app. 8 million are using text messages, and lastly 19 million use the built in browser. This feature is quite convenient and allows many people to access things conveniently. data costs, speeds, and security are still large issues though.
