Still don’t believe that Chromebooks are out to get Android tablets? This latest clue could be one of the nails on that Android coffin. While Chromebooks have always been designed as portable devices, give or take a few grams, they haven’t exactly been completely portable because of one thing: reliance on Wi-Fi connectivity. That could be changing in the next … Continue reading

Many, many years ago when FaceTime was officially announced, Apple’s late co-founder Steve Jobs then announced that they had plans to make FaceTime an open standard, meaning that it would be less of an Apple-exclusive feature and more available to anyone else who wanted to take advantage of what Apple had created.
However why is it that nearly 8 years after the initial announcement is FaceTime still not yet an open standard? According to the folks at CNET, they think they might know why, or at least one of the reasons why, and that is an ongoing lawsuit that Apple is having with a company called VirtnetX.
The latter alleges that Apple had infringed upon their patents for FaceTime, meaning that Apple was forced to change the way that FaceTime works. This meant that instead of the phones talking with each other directly, they had to go through a relay server, meaning that adopting FaceTime would no longer be as easy as Apple had hoped it would be.
Of course there are other possibilities, such as Apple wanting to keep the feature exclusive to themselves to encourage adoption of iOS and macOS, but since Apple has yet to comment on CNET’s article, we guess we’ll never know. In the meantime there are plenty of apps that have since launched video calling features, so we guess there are plenty of alternatives out there.

The last time we saw How To Train Your Dragon was back in 2014 where the second movie was released. For those who can’t wait to see what the third movie has in store for them, you’ll be pleased to learn that Dreamworks has since released the trailer for the third movie dubbed How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World.
According to the description of the trailer, “Now chief and ruler of Berk alongside Astrid, Hiccup has created a gloriously chaotic dragon utopia. When the sudden appearance of female Light Fury coincides with the darkest threat their village has ever faced, Hiccup and Toothless must leave the only home they’ve known and journey to a hidden world thought only to exist in myth. As their true destines are revealed, dragon and rider will fight together—to the very ends of the Earth—to protect everything they’ve grown to treasure.”
For the most part the cast from the previous movies will be returning, which includes Jay Baruchel as Hiccup, Cate Blanchett as Valka, America Ferrera as Astrid, Craig Ferguson as Gobber, Jonah Hill as Snotlout Jorgenson, T. J. Miller and Kristen Wiig as Tuffnut and Ruffnut, Kit Harington as Eret, and it seems that Gerard Butler will be making his return as Stoick the Vast. The movie is currently set for a release on the 1st of March, 2019 so we still have some waiting to do, but in the meantime you can check out the trailer above.
