I have been watching people around me for a while how and what they have been using in their mobile. I noticed a trend. As people are getting familiar and comfortable with their smartphones (I hope soon I…
IBM estimates that we create every day 2.5 quintillion bytes of data (90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone.). It is really hard to digest and understand how big…
