Apple never announced a launch date, but the delay may be affecting plans from the many companies who intend to support the platform with third-party home automation products. | http://fortune.com/2015/05/14/apple-delays-homekit-launch/ | ||||

28 | Barry Schwartz is the Publisher of Search Engine Round Table and wrote about this story for Search Engine Land. Q: Google made moves last month to favor mobile sites with its Google Mobile Friendly update. How is Microsoft's approach different? Q: What are Microsoft's criteria for mobile-friendliness? Q: Microsoft is going slow and refusing to specify a date for the rollout. Any predictions? Q: Microsoft has already been testing this. What did you learn from prior tests? Q: Google offered a test site where webmasters could see if they're mobile friendly. Will Microsoft do the same? | Barry Schwartz Publisher, Search Engine Round Table @rustybrick | ||||

49 | In other Microsoft news, Microsoft finally shipped its Hyperlapse video app that it announced last year. The app is available for Android, Windows Phone, and as a desktop Windows application. Like the iOS app Hyperlapse, Microsoft Hyperlapse creates a speeded up and smoothed out version of your videos. One benefit of Microsoft's product is that it will transform existing video. You don't have to explicitly create it in the app. Also of interest is that the desktop Windows version is more powerful. Called Microsoft Hyperlapse Pro, it offers an an advanced mode for high-end action cams like the GoPro. | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twncW4PLdsY | ||||

The department is working with the FCC to speed up the testing of a special spectrum for vehicle-to-vehicle communication.
