Valentine's Day is just around the corner, a day when lovelorn | :01:17. | :01:22. | |
singletons across the world usually feel more isolated than ever. | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
Luckily, Kew but now comes in several digital incarnations, | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
always on hand to help us locate a perfect partner. But is it a good | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
idea for us to have our head in the clouds especially when we have no | :01:36. | :01:45. | |
real idea who it is we are speaking to? We went to have a look at love. | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
Date tonight. Again. Some of the predate rituals and routines may be | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
strikingly familiar. But the way we are going about finding a soulmate | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
is changing beyond recognition. If we are to believe the hype, one in | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
five UK relationships begins on the internet. Established whether | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
players are raising their game. E- Harmony claims to have developed a | :02:11. | :02:19. | |
romance algorithm, if you can be bothered to answer 256 questions. | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
And this cross-platform offering is enjoying huge reach with over 50 | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
million subscribers in over 70 countries. But it is the rise of | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
social media that is creating the real buzz these days, making | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
landing a catch easier than ever. Thing is - online dating is no | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
longer taboo. It is now a multi- billion dollar business. Gone are | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
the days when it was just about finding a flattering photograph and | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
writing a decent profile. Now, you can do so much more. Turning to | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
technology does not have universal appeal. Many people might not be | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
very genuine and certainly would not be looking for something that | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
is healthy. Meeting on the internet is like meeting in a bar. You have | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
the same kind of anticipation and excitement and then the rejection | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
and the unwanted advances. Yes, it is exactly the same. They put their | :03:17. | :03:21. | |
best photo of a profile but when you meet them in person, will they | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
look like that? I am not sure. Board of the fruitless flirtations | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
online dating had brought him, one man's quest for love has prompted | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
him to create an application to come to the rescue. A wasted so | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
much time on dates where people did not look like their photographs, | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
they came across different way. I wanted to take that and tap into | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
the age-old wisdom that we have all what -- always met someone in | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
common through friends and families through Facebook. We used Facebook | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
to find out which of your friends' friends are single. And which can | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
be recommended for you. The website has not launched yet and as an opt- | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
in service, its success will depend on the willingness of Facebook | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
users to sign up. That was a problem that faced American start | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
of Europe. The service tapped into your Facebook result, setting you | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
up with the friends of friends based on similar lights and music | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
tastes. After initial interest comic plateaued and its technology | :04:30. | :04:36. | |
was sold off. This website also look to fate took -- Facebook to | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
get your single friends. The idea is to get a network of single | :04:40. | :04:47. | |
people but it has struggled to make a dent. Many people felt it was too | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
invasive. Facebook is generational in how people use it and what they | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
will share. Younger people are fiercely protective of their | :04:55. | :05:01. | |
privacy, believe it or not, and they want to keep their digital | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
social lives separate from what they perceive to be a very private | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
space in online dating. Soon, you may not need applications or dating | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
sites at all as Facebook's new graph search could make meeting | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
singletons with shared interests very easy. And the other platform | :05:20. | :05:28. | |
we cannot forget. Twitter. Valentine's Day sees the launch of | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
a system that gets you flirting with the Twitterati for a | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
customised search box. It is not all about social media. For a real | :05:38. | :05:44. | |
life rendezvous, location is everything. The term does not | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
exactly roll off the tongue but geosocial networking has seen | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
millions signing up to applications that rely on your GPS location to | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
introduce you to people nearby. Heaven forbid you would actually | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
introduce yourself to real living people in the same room. Grindr is | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
an application targeting gay and bisexual men. It alerts you of up | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
to 300 other Grindr uses in their immediate area. Over the past three | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
years, it has enjoyed phenomenal success along with Blendr, its | :06:16. | :06:22. | |
sister site open to everyone. Of the well-established websites like | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
OKCupid are also putting geosocial family at their core. If you have | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
the time, the locals feature broadcasts your availability to | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
local people here by. But one question remains - how safe are | :06:35. | :06:41. | |
these applications? GPS-enabled dating applications. People know | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
that you are explicitly looking to hook up. All that you are | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
explicitly looking to date and for some people, that can put them in a | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
dangerous situation. Apply common sense and logic. You are probably | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
in slightly more danger if you are not being careful. They do allow | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
you to turn off your location and block those you might want to avoid | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
but leaving on the tracking could in some circumstances make way for | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
stalking. The risks of online dating are not confined to the | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
latest geosocial applications. Last month, a woman in the US filed a | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
$10 million lawsuit against Match .com, alleging that they do not do | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
enough to safeguard their members after a man she met on the internet | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
but it did to murder her. Match .com says the lawsuit is absurd and | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
that this is about a sick, twisted individual with no prior criminal | :07:36. | :07:41. | |
record, not an entire community of men and women looking to meet each | :07:41. | :07:47. | |
other. Match .com has safety advice pages, a feature to report abuses. | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
Its terms and conditions page says it has no responsibility for bodily | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
injury. For many solicitors, it is a happy ending. But it is a | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
reminder that for better or for worse, what starts as frivolous | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
online fun can have real world offline consequences. Swapping | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
Tudor's bow for a browser. Time for the latest Tech News. | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
The European IT commissioner has outlined a security strategy | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
recommending companies in key sectors like banking and health to | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
report cyber attacks. Some businesses are worried that will | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
create a reputation damage at it comes in the midst of a renewed | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
assault by the Anonymous hacking collective on American institutions, | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
the latest being the Federal Reserve, where the stolen details | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
of 4,000 bank executives were published earlier this month. | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
It was first seen last month but while way has stepped back their | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
ascent to smartphone to appeal to the African market. The Chinese | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
handset maker already has a popular Android handset on the continent | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
but this time around, his smartphone will feature a Windows | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
mobile operating system, complete with an African focused Apple store. | :09:00. | :09:07. | |
It is part of Microsoft's wider initiative to make inroads into the | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
region. Forget Facebook credits, enter Amazon coins. The online | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
retailer's a virtual currency will first be used on the Kindle Fire | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
tablet to make online purchases. To help drive up take, the retail | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
giant will give away millions for free ahead of the US launched in | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
May. Finally, a kick-start a star eath | :09:30. | :09:36. | |
star has flat up pledges of over $100,000 in just two days. The | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
project was launched after the US government rejected an online | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
position to build the infamous Battle station. There is still some | :09:43. | :09:49. | |
way to go before the project gets under way. $30 million just for the | :09:49. | :09:56. | |
plants. 850 Quadri and dollars to get it into space - give or take. | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
Last week, we reported on BlackBerry's attempt to reignite | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
interest in its once-popular range of smartphones. Recently, there | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
have been two familiar names entering the mobile race. Five Fox | :10:10. | :10:17. | |
and Ubuntu. Do these newcomers really have a chance against each | :10:17. | :10:24. | |
other? All Black Broome and the two for life, Apple and Google Android? | :10:24. | :10:33. | |
-- or BlackBerry? We will look at fire Fox later in the year, but it | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
could face an uphill struggle against this, Ubuntu. Simply | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
because of the fact that many people already know their way | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
around to the well-established PC version. As you might expect from a | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
new phone operation system, it comes with a new way of doing | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
things. The phone has no buttons at all. Launch applications, spike | :10:54. | :10:59. | |
between them -- switch between them by swiping to different sides of | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
her the screen. Both fire Fox and Ubuntu are open sores and free and | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
for that reason, they are both already popular in the developing | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
world. The first phones for each operating system will be aimed at | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
those wanting cheap, low-powered smartphones. Whereas fire foxed | :11:15. | :11:23. | |
fans will and the target Viva Las - - the developing world, Ubuntu will | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
also release high and phones. These might be the only computing devices | :11:27. | :11:37. | |
:11:37. | :11:43. | ||
We have a vision that your smartphone can be your thing for a | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
whole set of things. If you cut your smartphone you can have and | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
should have a full PC working experience. But you're also | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
concentrating on the low end of the market? Exactly. When we first ship | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
a product it will likely be one of these lean smartphones. That will | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
be an entry-level smartphone, targeted at people using futures | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
phones now and want to get into a smartphone. Or emerging markets | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
where it is somebody's first bone, or even first computer in some ways. | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
-- first phone. Why would that be better than a low end Android | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
phone? For those consumers, who are interested in an entry-level | :12:25. | :12:34. | |
smartphone, it offers a high class beautiful stunning use experience - | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
- user experience on the level of phone appropriate for their budget | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
for their needs. Every maker of smartphones boasts their operating | :12:42. | :12:46. | |
system is the best looking and the most intuitive and the easiest to | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
use. Why d'you think the Ubuntu smartphone will be any of those | :12:51. | :12:55. | |
things? We have a design principle, if you can see information on a | :12:55. | :13:02. | |
screen you should be able to action it right away. For example where | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
you see the wifi indicator, when you pull that down from the top, | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
turning it on and off is a very limited capability. Normally when | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
you want to look at your wifi you're trying to pick a different | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
access point or change networks. We provide the ability to do that | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
right from the indicator. The messaging menu again with an | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
indicator at the top, when you pull that down you can from that exact | :13:27. | :13:33. | |
spot reply to messages, call people back. You don't have to go into | :13:33. | :13:38. | |
another application to perform that function. It's clearly what you | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
want to do. This is an advantage that will come in late to the | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
market, you can see what everybody has done and you can see their | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
mistakes -- that will come from coming in late. That is part of it | :13:51. | :13:57. | |
and part of it is innovation from our own design and development | :13:57. | :14:03. | |
teams. The technology inside as the cars | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
has changed immeasurably over the last few years. -- our cars. With | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
ever more powerful computing now tucked away inside the upholstery. | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
We sent Ian Hardy out with MacBook and pen to hand to collect the | :14:15. | :14:25. | |
:14:25. | :14:30. | ||
latest ideas. It can't be easy constantly coming | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
up with new ideas that redefine the way we interact with our vehicles. | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
Past a certain point, safety laws regulations and common sense start | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
to kick in. That's why driver side TV screens and texting were just | :14:44. | :14:50. | |
two concepts that took us one step forward and two steps back. But | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
sometimes removing tech reveals a whole new opportunity. CD players | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
are slowly disappearing from the dashboard, and maybe that's why FM | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
radio is writhing in popularity again. But if you have got a | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
connected smartphone IndyCar broadcasters can now overlaid | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
adverts from the by businesses and guide you there with GPS. You will | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
never miss another special sale ever again. What the application is | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
doing behind the scenes is embedding a bit of software under | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
the system and then when they have the software they have access to a | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
programme allowing them to in Sir adverts that interact through the | :15:32. | :15:35. | |
internet, beamed to the smartphone and you get it through the radio | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
system -- inserts. Mobile devices are becoming central to the | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
automotive experience. So much so both Ford and GM have developed a | :15:47. | :15:54. | |
website to encourage the creation of car-centric apps. The need for | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
speed on portable gadgets comes with a need for juice. Wireless | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
charging is nothing new, but Delphi are developing a method that will | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
allow devices to be powered passively from base stations that | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
are further away than current models. The idea is that the driver | :16:09. | :16:12. | |
will never have to fumble around and the kids can keep their | :16:12. | :16:17. | |
entertainment up and running right to the end of the trip. You manage | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
how much power is totally available to the system. We can look at the | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
system or the mobile device that needs the power the most, and | :16:25. | :16:29. | |
switch off the ones that don't need the power and power up the ones | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
that are the least charged. then of course we have started to | :16:33. | :16:37. | |
see cars that are fully automated right down to the steering wheel. | :16:37. | :16:44. | |
After all, how important is the driver really? There's been a lot | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
of interest recently in driverless cars as you can see, there are a | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
few examples of them around the world. But there's one company that | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
has produced a product that can be fitted into your car long after you | :16:55. | :16:59. | |
have bought it and it essentially gives the driver a helping hand, or | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
should I say RAA. The gadget is a smart sensor camera that actually | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
sees in black and white. -- A the unit's strength is down to its on- | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
board processing power and software algorithms that can identify signs, | :17:17. | :17:23. | |
traffic lights, people, pets, you name it! On the right and the Net | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
you can see we are a forward looking solution. -- and the left. | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
We track everything, including if you're driving in a condensed area | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
with hundreds of pedestrians walking on the pavement, we take | :17:35. | :17:40. | |
all of them and everybody has a target number. We know it's | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
somebody runs into the road we can distinguish that. -- if somebody. | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
We don't want to just provide a warning at the right time but also | :17:48. | :17:53. | |
we want to provide a warning when you don't need it -- don't want to | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
provide. Is crash avoidance systems and auto pilot modes become | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
widespread in the future, and there's a good chance they will, it | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
could lead to more screens and information being tolerated and | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
displayed on doors and consoles. So it's very convenient that thanks to | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
innovations in contoured surfaces and touch sensor technology like | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
XSense car interiors could one day look very different. Automotive | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
manufacturers are increasingly interested in putting Dutch | :18:24. | :18:30. | |
solutions in the car. Not just for entertainment but navigation. It it | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
