Broadly speaking, the Cloud is still a work in progress, but Microsoft, like Google, Apple and a number of other key companies offering their cloud-based services, has been working hard to improve its OneDrive offering. Today signals a big step in the evolution of the software giant’s cloud efforts, with Xbox Music integration permitting users to store and playback a variety of different music formats on multiple devices free of charge.
Drones are the big thing these days, whether they be used by people for plain old fun or being flown over Apple's new spaceship campus as it is being built, drones are fast becoming a factor of life rather than something just a few have any experience of. You can buy them from the Apple Store should you so wish, and when anything is available for sale at Apple's own retail outlet it's safe to say that it has made it big time.
The App Store is packed to the gills with free apps, but most of the time, those that appear free are bundled with ads or in-app purchase structures that restrict the experience until money is handed over. When paid apps go free for a limited time, though, a freebie really does become a freebie, and if you happen to enjoy first-person shooters, then you'll be pleased to learn that Modern Combat 5: Blackout has just shaken off its $4 price tag for the very first time.

Theoretically, you can crack the passcode on an iPhone or iPad, but that would take you days. Of course, you could automate it with some fancy computers or gadgets, but this is why Apple has the passcode counter in place to either lock someone out, or data wipe the device after ten incorrect attempts.

Google Play is a content portal used by tens of millions on a daily basis, but while it's packed to the gills with many great, and many not-so-great apps and games, it remains a work in progress. A common gripe, especially among concerned parents, is that there's no strict age ratings system in place, and since regulations vary from country to country, the Play Store has been a bit of a free-for-all at times. Now, though, the Big G has introduced a new age-ratings system that adheres specifically to the country or location that an account is based in, and the company has also revealed that its app moderation / approval process now includes human beings.
Google's Android Wear has been designed in a way that suits the search giant, and as such, products like Apple's iPhone are not officially supported. This will probably change at some point in the future as the watch-tailored version of Google's platform matures, but for the time being, any integration between iOS and Android Wear takes quite a bit of effort and, usually, a jailbreak. One developer has managed to get Android Wear answering iPhone calls without the intervention of a jailbreak, though, and with a demonstration video also supplied as proof, we get, perhaps, a preview of how Android Wear and the iPhone may eventually interact.
