It's now time for Tech Talk and, as you know, every Friday we bring you the latest with our in-house tech guy copy in crew, Macaulay's good to see you, and I've been following you on social media and something is happening with some Sun they've launched the no 10 yeah any interesting things to note. Well, you know the note has always been a Productivity device. They have a pen. You can write on your screen now they bought some new features to the pen. Now, when you write on your screen, it's now searchable, so it has OCR, which is optical character recognition. So it can actually detect your handwriting and convert it to actual text.

I can save in Word or PDF, and now we so when you type it, and then you have your notes out there, you can search for them too. They're searchable and open also doubles as a magic wand, but you can do some things with it's actually seeing night. That's converting current text to written text to optical day. Forgive me them wrong, but existing software that could do this. So yes, the existing softwares I can convert pictures of text to text, but for handwriting it's always been something that has been limited to the notes, because that's the only one that comes with the S Pen Stylus, yes, and now it's coming with upgraded specs as always every year that boosting the specs, better camera more round, more storage than yes, three cameras, an ultra-wide camera and a telephoto lens in a regular lens and- and it has a fourth camera called a depth of field like the time of flight.

Sorry, the time of life camera allows you to do 3d scanning. So imagine that you have this objects that you want to create. A copy of. You can actually scan the object in three dimensions. Now that is awesome.

That's one of the features that I like about it, but there's one thing that is not there, there's no earphone jack. How did I miss that? Well, according to some song, they didn't have space to put in an air phone jack. So they've been you know when Apple removed the air phone jack from the iPhone, then you knew Rule is the same. Yes, as basically what happens, ? there's no headphone jack here now, some time ago, Samsung was poking fun at Apple. For this, and you know a lot of people where we're making fun of Apple now Samsung has done the same thing.

They've taken the headphone jack from the phone, so people were wondering. Is it something I'm going to be confident enough to talk about this guess what all the videos all the ads that they did where you're making fun of Apple they took them off? Do we have a video we have? The video is actually also. It is an image that when you go searching for okay, the video it tells you that the video is unable is unavailable. Alright is just funny. So if I haven't an earpiece, how do I use it on this? So you either have to use a USB-C dongle to earphone, but it comes with a USB-C earphone, so you just connected directly to the charging port.

But then again, you know a lot of people like me who were making fun of Apple and their likes for moving. This is a blue to us like the future. Anyway, let's move okay. What else is happening in the test? Well, Facebook is saying that they want to Munoz publishers again, you know some time ago, Facebook modified its news stream, so its stream timeline, so basically stories from publishers and the rest we're not showing in your timeline, unless maybe was something from your friends and your family, because I wanted to build those connections, as they said now. What's happened is that Facebook has realized that they actually need news.

Publishers like us. They need our content to also get more people because it was going to help them fight fake news. It's going to help them. You know basically drive more traffic to their platform, so now they're willing to invest by paying millions to publishers. So when you publish on that, Facebook determines is worthy of it, they will send some money, and then you know, get your content so finish now, and Facebook is willing to pay millions to bring back publishers, so I knew stories in there as kind of come back and into our new speak Jonas.

Okay, alright, so let's quickly wrap it up with the last one about Google Maps. Yes, so you know a lot of people use Google Maps when they're driving when you're walking its something else you just be looking around for wherever it is you're going now, Google introduced a new feature. They call Maps AR, so you use augmented reality to overlay on your camera as you're, seeing on the screen. So it gives you direction to where you're going when you're walking you just open your camera, and then it will be directing you to Google Maps as to where you're going when you get to your destination, even put a point. So as you can see that arrows that are directing you, so you'll be turning left here.

This is very convenient. You know what I'm scared about people, not paying attention on the roads and looking on their phones like so fixated, which is why we did this. When are you actually seeing where you're going? So this is real time. If you're, looking through your camera, you can see exactly where you, so you're not going to be looking on your phone and then falling Agathe Oh get knocked by a car. So this is a very good feature, and it's available now.

So if you're using Google Maps on iOS or Android, you can try it out. You go to the AR maps AR and you have Google Maps a yes all right the submitted reality. Isn't it yeah all right? Okay, thank you very much, Kobe increment, that, with the latest from the world of technology, became not shortly in business.
