Pentax K-30 leaks out in French catalog, teases us with weather resistance and 1080p video

www.engadget.com | Jon Fingas | 2012-05-18 02:16:30
It's been more than a year and a half since Pentax first put out the K-r as its entry DSLR, so it's about time that a sequel roll along to keep the company in the game. If we believe a French catalog, the K-30 should soon one-up its 2010-era brother with a new 16-megapixel sensor and an upgrade to "full HD" (read: likely 1080p) video from the 720p of today. Most of the real change, though, appears to be on the outside: the body would be "tropicalized," which we're sure means weather resistance and not a trip to Tahiti.

Google Is In Total Denial About Its Huge Problem With Google+ (GOOG)

www.businessinsider.com | Owen Thomas | 2012-05-18 02:16:00
When is Google going to admit the obvious? Google+, the "social spine" of CEO Larry Page's counterattack on Facebook, is a flop. That's according to a detailed analysis of user activity by research firm RJ Metrics for Fast Company. RJ Metrics selected 40,000 Google+ users at random. It then analyzed their public posts. What they found is that a lot of people start sharing on Google+, then stop. 3 out of 10 made a single public post, then never posted again. Even among people who made five posts, 15 percent had stopped posting. RJ Metrics said this "decay rate" was disturbing. Other analysts ha... Similar News >>
