Tesla's Autopilot Feature Involved in Second Car Crash

Electric automaker Tesla has admitted its autopilot feature was involved in a second car crash, fortunately this one wasn't fatal. The crash happened in Cardwell, Montana when a Model X SUV drove off the road and hit wooden guard rails. The problem according to Tesla is that autopilot was being used on a winding Mountain Road and the driver was not following instructions to place his hands on the wheel to disable auto steer. Yep, Tesla has sensors for that. The driver apparently said he didn't understand the alerts because they were in English and he speaks Mandarin, which comes across as somewhat fishy at any rate. While Tesla's autopilot continues to be examined under the microscope, Nissan is about to deploy its version of the same thing called Propilot. Only, Nissan decided to put the tech in one of its minivans. Nissan is avoiding comment on the Tesla situation but it can be bet they will be super careful with their rollout of what has become somewhat controversial.

Google's Travel Planning Update

Tech finally, Google wants to make planning a vacation a little bit easier. The company has launched a series of updates designed to make finding bargains on flights and hotels extremely simple. Just type in something like "hotels in San Diego under $150 per night that have a pool" and Google will show you exactly that. You can also add other filters to those results, case you want a kitchenette or whatever. Search results will also highlight deals on hotels that are cheaper than normal, and it works for flights too. Now, you can track flight price changes and you'll be notified by email when the price drops. The new features will be rolling out over the next few weeks and are designed to take on travel sites like Expedia and hotels.com.

Pokémon Go's Viral Success

Everybody, it's Wednesday July 13, 2016, and we're not talking about Pokémon Go today. All right, nope, not going to do it. All right, all right, we're talking about Pokémon Go again. Can you believe how hot this mobile game is? What is it that's got people so excited? Well, if you ask us, it's all about the augmented reality. But whatever it is, it has rocketed the app right past Twitter and Facebook. You heard me right; it's the most viral app ever. People spend more time with it than they do with Facebook and Pokémon Go in just a few days has managed to tally up more daily users than Twitter now. We knew this was coming; it's just a bit shocking to see that it's happened so quickly.

Similar Web Says Pokémon Go Edged Past Twitter

Similar Web says Pokémon Go edged past Twitter in terms of active users on Monday and now has about 6% of all Android users using the app daily. Some other interesting statistics include New Zealand and Australia coming in at first and second place respectively for the most installs and daily use on Android devices, and the US coming in a surprisingly distant third. Even though it's totally killing Candy Crush Saga as the most installed app in the US. Part of the reason Pokémon Go installs are surging is because people in countries where the app isn't officially launched yet are downloading the application and sideloading it onto their phone. Something not so easily done with an iPhone.

The Madness Continues
