sweet android treats a new project tango device and rim takes a trip to Venice that is what's up next on the tech TechnoBuffalo fun time our show how's it going guys Marber Steiner here I'm super stoked to be bringing a weekly news recap back to the channel but I don't have a name for it just yet I thought it would be super fun as a kind of like first act of solidarity with you guys as the community to work together to come up with a name for the show so just to get your juices flowing like the download the sink news night with Mark burst iron fun time tech our ville you know stuff like that so let me know in the comments what names you guys think will work will start narrowing it down from there in the meantime let's get started first up Android M continuing with their delectable tradition of naming major releases after sweet treats Android M is now officially Android marshmallow while I do like the name I'm a little bit disappointed that they didn't go with another partnership like they did with KitKat I would have been all too happy to buy bags of M&MS for just a chance at some play store credit this week Intel unveiled a brand new flagship project tango device featuring their new 3d real sense tech obviously they partnered with Google to do so project tango is a google project and this dev kit should bring really really powerful 3d imaging capabilities to a lot more folks if you don't know what project tango is let's get you up to speed it's a really really cool google a tap project and they use a multitude of cameras and sensors to turn a smartphone or a tablet running android into a full-on 3d imaging device it's really really cool you can use it for mapping out stores for google maps to be able to walk through them or you can even do really cool stuff like create full 3d environments for games I love chrome you guys it's my default browser and I'm on a Mac but on a Mac it can get really really heavy and sluggish at times luckily chrome 46 which you can currently test drive through Chrome's alpha channel Chrome Canary seems to have alleviated the major memory leaks and sluggishness that are associated with chrome for the most part which brings it up to par with safari in terms performance of course you can go ahead and grab canary at the link right down there below in the description remember canary is indeed an alpha so not everything's going to work it is an early look at what's coming around the bend if you don't want to be running an alpha you can also run the chrome beta or you can just stay on the normal chrome Channel and it will come to you eventually Android wear is just getting better and better google just announced this week an update to android we're enabling interactive watch faces developers can now make watch faces that have interactive elements like calendar events fitness tracker info you can even link up with another person right from your watch face you can send fun photos emoji you can draw some stuff as usual this is Anita staged rollout so if you don't see it on your device right away just hang tight or of course you could just keep bashing the system update button all right I'm gonna say something polarizing here if blackberry were to put out a device running Android I would be first in line I've always been a really big fan of their hardware but bbos really kind of never matured enough to really take on the big boys thankfully that is exactly what we should be seeing very very soon doesn't seem like they're going to let Android be Android but if the software is tolerable the specs that we're seeing should make for a really strong entry into the Android arena and I got to be honest I'm stoked and lastly in a surprise move this week google announced on hub a brand new smart router that intelligently manages bandwidth based on usage habits for each device it's managed with an app too so you don't have to know any of the combinations of blinking lights on your router and it's got a whopping 13 yes 13 and tennis in a circular array around the top to make for some ideal coverage and reception not to mention it's kind of speaker built in we're really really stoked to take this thing for a spin in the office I'm really really stoked to buy one for myself you can pre-order it right now for 200 bucks and google says it'll ship in the coming weeks but there is no actual solid date just yet let me know what you guys think about the format of this new show I really want this one to feel like we created it together so I'd really love to be able to give you a quick snapshot of what happened in the world attack for those of you who don't really have the time to keep your finger on the pulse throughout the week so let me know what you think longer shorter more stories fewer stories you want to see gaming stuff you wanna see entertainment stuff too and definitely don't forget to let me know what you think the show should be called down there in the
