Windows 10 now on 600 million machines.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told shareholders that Windows 10 has now passed 600 million monthly active users, picking up 100 million since May of this year. This number counts all Windows 10 devices used over a 28-day period. While most of these will be PCs, there are other things in the mix there: a few million Xbox Ones, a few million Windows 10 Mobile phones, and special hardware like the HoloLens and Surface Hub. The exact mix between these categories isn't known, because Microsoft doesn't say. The company's original ambition (and sales pitch to developers) was to have one billion systems running Windows 10 within about three years of the operating system's launch. In July last year, the company acknowledged that it won't hit that target—the original plan called for  50 million or more phone sales a year , which the retreat from the phone market has made impossible.

WZoneLite – A Pretty Cool WooCommerce Amazon Affiliate Plugin .

But that’s not to say that it  can’t be –one of the best ways to start your empire is with an Amazon affiliate plugin.

Not only are there CPM ads like Google Adsense (you know, the normal banner ads we all love to hate), but any time someone clicks a link from your site, you get a percentage of  anything  they buy while the token from your site lasts in their browser. If they buy a song, you get a few cents. If they buy a new MacBook Pro and iPhone? You get…a lot more cents. With that in mind, WZoneLite is a  pretty cool WooCommerce Amazon affiliate plugin that syncs everything together s...

Battlin' billionaires: Trump campaign clashes with Facebook CEO over border wall

On Tuesday Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg criticized what he called "fearful voices" that want to build walls. Although Zuckerberg, who made his comments at a Facebook conference of developers, did not name presidential candidate Donald Trump, his remarks did not sit well with the GOP presidiential candidate's campaign. On Wednesday, Trump spokeswoman Katrina Pierson said Zuckerberg lives so far outside reality that he fails to see the detrimental effect of illegal immigration on the lives of people who live along the U.S.-Mexico border. "I think I'll take Mark Zuckerberg seriously when he gives up all of his private security, moves out of his posh neighborhood and comes live in a modest neighborhood near a border town,"Pierson said in an interview on CNBC. "And then I'm sure his attitude would change." While Trump hardly is the only Republican candidate who has ever pushed for tightened border security, USA Today noted, the billionai...
