#Facebook and Google are drooling over drone companies Last month it seemed as if Facebook would acquire the long-range solar-powered drone maker Titan Aerospace

and use its technology to deliver Internet to remote areas of the world. It was ostensibly a hedge against Google balloon-driven Project Loon and the possibility that Google,

rather than Facebook, would connect the ext billioninternet users. Today that picture is opaque at best.

Google not Facebook is buying Titan Aerospace, and Facebook has acquired a different U k.-based solar-powered drones startup called Ascenta.

And an answer to the question of how exactly the two Silicon valley giants will leverage their new technology?

while delivering connectivity to far-flung parts of the globe is advantageous for both Facebook and Google,

For Facebook, the incentive is simple: catch up. Rival Google has been developing a means to provide Internet connectivity to remote regions of the world for years now through Project Loon,

Facebook isn breaking new ground by getting into commercialized drone technology, Bünger says, just keeping up. oogle has been working on the autonomous vehicles, the Nest acquisition,

Facebook knows that if it wants to remain a major presence in the emerging Internet of things, it will need to extend beyond software and into hardware.

which have given Facebook some trouble in parts of the developing world, particularly where the company has attempted to negotiate ero-ratedeals that allow customers to use some of Facebook offerings without it counting against their data plans.

If Facebook does follow through with its ambitious plans to connect the next billion people through Facebook-owned Internet drones

Facebook can not only bypass mobile carriers that don want to play ball, but also push those new users toward Facebook offerings like its recently acquired messaging app Whatapp.

But one oft-overlooked area where UAS technology could really be a boon for Facebook is in data moving the other direction.

Right now, Facebook owns mountains of data on its users, but relatively little on the parts of the world that aren connected already to Facebook.

Comparatively, Google acquisitions and exclusive deals with third parties provide it with everything from the rich trove of geospatial data that powers Google maps to the energy use

and living habits of those using its Nest smart home technology, providing a far more robust picture of the world

and a wider range of services it can provide. With a fleet of UAS in the sky, Facebook could begin gathering its own proprietary geospatial data, aerial imagery, traffic data,

meteorological data information that it could then integrate into new products or sell to companies that need it,

and other companies threaten to do, at least with regard to drones. or Facebook and Google and those guys,

At $20 million, Facebook found its way into the drone space for a third of

both of these drone acquisitions by Facebook and Google; a lot of this technology that has to do with wearables;

Following Facebook s $20 million purchase of U k.-based aerospace company Ascenta which has been working on the development of unmanned,

solar-powered aerial drones for the past few years Google acted fast to usurp an expected bid by Facebook to also acquire Titan Aerospace.

a source close to Google said that the company offered to top any offer from Facebook for Titan Aerospace.

Solar-powered drones are an attractive proposition to company like Google and Facebook because of their reliability and stability in often adverse weather conditions.

However, a source close to Facebook has revealed that the social media giants had been reviewing Titan Aerospace s solar-powered drones some six months ago,

and are believed to have gazumped Facebook s offer r

#Neuroscientists reverse symptoms of Alzheimer s in mice Researchers found that the overproduction of the protein known as p25 may be the culprit behind the sticky protein-fragment clusters that build up in the brains of Alzheimer patients.

Google, Facebook, as well as many others, all keep meticulous track of user data for advertising and other purposes.

Because of that, it is conceivable that DAS for payments, social networking, and cloud computing may one day surpass the valuation of multinational corporations like Western union, Visa, Facebook, Google,

and Amazon that are are currently active in the space. At the very least, the ever-growing success of bitcoin thus far candidly illustrates that there is indeed a massive demand for anonymity online,

Facebook and Microsoft play such a central role in the Internet worldwide functioning. The NSA revelations exacerbated those concerns. his is a step in the right direction to resolve important international disputes about how the Internet is governed,

in the same way that second-layer services like Buffer or Hootsuite use the Twitter API to present

and interact with Twitter data in slightly modified or reorganized forms. Efforts to make complex financial functions a part of Bitcoin have been bubbling through 2013,
