Sories about the Internet of Things — everyday objects that have been upgraded to send and receive data — are growing ever more common in the media, and for good reason.

But Paul Hodson, the head of the EU’s energy efficiency unit, flagged "micro" public action as the way forward, dampening hopes of major policy advances in the review which will stock-take progress towards meeting 2020 energy saving goals and mull 2030 objectives.
The paper will now be published in July, during the EU’s summer vacation period.

I've been working full-time on my company, ELSA AND ME, since leaving my corporate gig for good in December 2011.

El número de empresas creadas en Euskadi en octubre ascendió a 289, lo que supone un incremento del 8,6 % respecto al mismo mes de 2013 y sitúa al País Vasco muy por encima la media nacional, que tuvo un aumento del 2,9 %.
En octubre, sin embargo, también se disolvieron 133 empresas vascas, lo que representa un ascenso del 19,8 % comparado con octubre del año pasado, superior a la media en el conjunto de España donde la disolución de compañías se mantuvo estable.

Security firm Area 1 just landed $8 million in its first round of funding, which Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers led.
The company focuses on early stage attacks. Its products prevent waterhole and phishing strikes, pesky exploits where an attacker pretends to be a trusted source to get credentials and other sensitive information often via email, websites, and other platforms. But that’s just the start. Hackers who launch phishing attacks are usually just at the beginning of a long destructive campaign on enterprise networks.
