Google Smartwatch

Well, it’s official- the smartwatch is going to be the next smartphone. After details of Apple and Samsung working on their respective smartwatches hit the Internet, now online reports state that Google also filed a patent application back in 2011 for a smartwatch with two displays and an “interactive user interface.”


According to CNET, the Google smartwatch is being developed by the search giant’s Android division instead of its X Lab division that works on concept devices.

Ultimately, for the survival of the company, management needed to reduce costs by eliminating the support team of which I was a key member. If you were fired, show that you had a different approach than management. I am a firm believer that all customers deserve the highest ...
