OneNote iPad
Microsoft announced a new partnership today that makes it a lot easier to transfer your OneNote writings over to WordPress. The company has created a WordPress plugin that inserts a OneNote button into your  editor. When clicked, you’ll be able to search for the specific onenote page you’d like to publish. As OneNote documents are synced to the cloud, you can start jotting your blog posts on any of OneNote’s supported platforms(iOS, OS X, Android, Windows and Windows Phone) to then input into WordPress. The plug-in could come in handy if you tend to use OneNote to draft your writing.…

Drone
A company named Skycatch wants to be your on-demand drone service. Instead of buying your own (likely expensive) drone and learning how to pilot it, NBC details the San Francisco-based startup’s desire for you to try a new program they’ve named “Workmode”. “If we didn’t have Workmode, we would have to buy our own drone, train our own pilot and potentially carry a little bit more liability insurance,” said Kevin Soohoo, chief information officer for Air Systems, a commercial heating and cooling installation company. “I don’t want to have a rookie flying a drone.” Skycatch connected Soohoo with drone pilot Tom…

We have not seen sufficient traction for a $25 phone, and we will not pursue all parts of the program” said Beard.…

In a move that shows commercial space exploration is not just possible, but probable, the United States House of Representatives just passed the SPACE Act in order to lay down some general guidelines in case you want to, you know, start a mining operation in space. While private charters like Virgin Galactic, and colonization missions to Mars by the likes of SpaceX are all the rage these days, the bill would suggest that enough private organizations have an interest in mining valuable resources from space that the need for legislation is necessary. Bear in mind, not a single private company has even…
