"HEALTHY PLACE, HEALTHY BOTTOM LINE"

"Sony's new high-end televisions have a neat trick, enabled by Miracast and NFC, that allows users to simply tap their Xperia device with the TV's remote control to mirror the smartphone display on the big screen. Sony says all of its new high-end televisions (W800 or better) will have Miracast and an NFC-enabled remote control. We got a chance to check out the technology in action on the show floor, and to put it simply, it's really cool; it takes a few seconds of holding the remote to the back of the Xperia Z to connect the smartphone to the television, at which point the TV displays whatever you've got open on the phone. It's one of the best television screen-sharing implementations we've seen, as it makes screen sharing nearly effortless. To disable the mirroring, users just need to re-tap their phone to the remote control."

"Originally called Pinfluencer, Piqora was one of the first companies to offer Pinterest insights before Pinterest launched an analytics tool of its own. Its other customers include Sephora, Zappos, Etsy, Z Gallerie, Orbitz, and Steve Madden. Using an image recognition-based algorithm, Piqora can surface brand-related hashtags, images, and links from the three top visual networks, where keywords aren't enough. Hashtag-tracking technology is especially important on Instagram, where Piqora says brands have seven times more hashtags than they have followers."
