That's what I thought as well. I wouldn't think they'd sell themselves, but I could imagine some sort of licensing deal getting announced soon.

They've been cross licensing with their PerC offerings so I should imagine this is more of the same.

The company is offering an early developer preview of a toolchain based on Apache Cordova, an open-source mobile development framework for building native mobile apps using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Developers can use the tool to wrap their Chrome app with a native application shell that enables them to distribute it via Google Play and Apple’s App Store.

No doubt, our blog is a great site for announcing new books and other quick bits of news; however, we really needed a great landing page to host our free ebooks in an elegant, easy-to-browse way. Our coworkers at the Microsoft Virtual Academy provided the solution. It’s a perfect place to land, since many of you already consume the Jump Start sessions, live events and archived courses from MVA. "Reading maketh a full man"

'Oops,' says analyst about Apple overestimating demand for less-expensive iPhone. Oh, I see what you did there. Clever headline writer: "call", "iPhone".

What they blew is saying it was a cheaper iPhone and then essentially putting it out for the same price off-plan, and since most international users--the market they were primarily targeting with this "cheap" smartphone--are buying off-plan, it didn't make sense to buy an iPhone 5 in a cheap plastic case instead of a discounted iPhone 5.
Logic, Tim Cook, logic.

In 2012 Google unveiled an experiment called Build with Chrome, a virtual Lego tool that let you play with tiny plastic bricks in your browser — and two years later the project is finally open to everyone If you need me... I'll be... uhm... in a meeting. Yes. Very busy.

Only works in Chrome. As one commentator puts it: "Google Chrome, the new IE 6.0".
OTOH (and if fairness) without IE did introduce Ajax (XmlHttpRequest) without which RIA's and Web 2.0 would have been impossible, so Google's entire model is now predicated on IE innovation.
Seems to be the W3C are so slow and crappy that real innovation goes on in the browsers (again).

It works in FF 26.0 perfectly fine. And another commentator posted that it worked in Opera as well.

The Department of Justice has announced a new deal with major tech companies that would allow unprecedented levels of disclosure about government data requests. Among other breakthroughs, the deal would allow each company to publicly announce the number of FISA requests and national security letters it has received in a given year, as well as the total number of users affected. They'll still monitor, but now you can find out when

...but the catch is the companies have to wait two years to disclose new FISA requests. So if a customer finds out in 2016 that their data was obtained by the NSA in 2014, what good does it do?

Job candidates must be prepared for anything during an interview. That's why Glassdoor has combed through tens of thousands of interview questions shared by job candidates over the past year to compile its annual list of the Top 25 Oddball Interview Questions.

If my friends and family heard that I was planning on participating in a surreality show I'd hope and expect that they'd arrange for me to take an extended vacation in a resort with soft padded walls, an I Love Me Jacket, and an adult pacifier to keep me from making any awful noises with my mouth. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?

Ah interesting.
You know, you're the only one so far who directly stated that he doesn't like the idea of participating the show.

None of the above. However the shops selling them also carry a wide variety of NSFW merchandise, so I decline to link to them.
