New Chrome Extension Helps to Boycott United Airlines

As a response to the recent forced removal of a passenger on an overbooked United Airlines flight, a Chrome extension has been created to help you boycott the airline. The extension, called Drop United, removes United Airlines as an option when searching for flights on Google Search, Google Flights, Kayak, and Expedia. For those who are upset enough with United to boycott them, this is a great extension. Article on New Chrome Extension That Helps Boycott United Airlines

Samsung's Siri Rival Won't Be Ready for New Galaxy Phone's U.S. Launch

On April 21, Samsung's Galaxy S8 and S8+ will launch in the U.S. However, the digital assistant Bixby will not be fully functional in time for the release. Apparently, some elements of Bixby will be included, but the voice activation feature will not be available. Considering the Bixby tool was widely promoted when news of the Samsung Galaxy S8 started coming out, it is a bit embarrassing that some of its features will not be ready for the U.S. launch. However, I do think it is smart of Samsung to perfect Bixby instead of rushing to include a fully operational version that might end up having problems.
