Topic: New Technologies

There are constantly changing and developing new technologies throughout the world today. It doesn’t matter how big or small your business is, you will need to use any type of technology to help increase profit.

People no longer are using the yellow book to advertise for their company, it has all turned to Facebook and Google in order for people to get information regarding your business. There are so many new technologies that can help you become a popular business.

Useoftechnology.com has created an article called “What is New In Technology – 2013 Technology Concepts” which is an article filled with new innovate ideas for technology that could help make the consumers lives easier.

Some of the ideas they commented on where a modular office organizer that was supposed to help organize your electronic devices. Another is the Prizm-Home Hub which is a device that allows you to control your home electronics and door locks with your cell phone.

It is incredible the type of technologies that are invented and what people think would be a good product for consumers.

Another type of new technologies are existing innovations that are being updated or added to help increase its awareness. The newest (that many are talking about is) is Twitter #music. It is similar to Spotify but is linked through Twitter. This is a great way to get their already Twitter account users to switch from other music stations like Spotify or Pandora and use Twitter #music.

Whatever the new technology is, as long as it is new and different and something no one has seen before, this usually means it will be successful.
