Facebook's Instagram play
Much has been said since Facebook dived into their war chest to purchase photo-sharing application king Instagram for a cool US$1 billion earlier this week.
Most of the reaction in the media and social networks was of 'shock'. I was not surprised.
"A billion dollars of money? For a thing that kind of ruins your pictures?" - Jon Stewart said on his The Daily Show.
"This will make you think: at its current, public market valuation, the New York Times company is worth about $50 million less than the $1 billion that Facebook just paid for Instagram." - The Next Web reported.

Google Wallet launched in the United States
Google Wallet has been launched in the United States, signalling the beginning of the end of the traditional wallet.
And it is all possible due to Google's clever use of Near Field Communication (NFC) in its Nexus S phones and key partnerships with finance, retail and hardware companies.
Techcrunch has conducted a thorough review of Google Wallet version 1, and it looks very impressive in action.
This first video shows Techcrunch writer Greg Kumparak displaying the 'Wallet' application interface.
This second video is Kumparak paying for a food order with Google Wallet.
