Google is making news today with their new big push into cloud computing something that so far has been dominated by Amazon and others. Business Insider reports that Google which operates under the alphabet umbrella is planning to roll out three new undersea data cables by next year and a bid to expand its cloud-based offering to more regions around the globe. It's all part of a $30 billion infrastructure push that will include data centers and other facilities in the Netherlands, Hong Kong, Montreal, Finland, and that faraway country of Los Angeles, wherever that is. Undersea internet cables carry about 90% of the international Internet traffic, so they're key to speeding up data moving between continents.
We've got more information at the link if you want to learn more about Google's plans for their cloud computing expansion.
Microsoft has also made some important announcements today. If you're still rocking Windows 8.1 operating system today is the last day of Redmond going to provide a free upgrade to Windows 10. Windows 8.1 originally landed on PCs five years ago but at some point Microsoft ends support for old operating systems and today is pretty much that day there won't be any more updates or bug fixes going forward although you're not totally in the dark Microsoft will continue to provide security updates for the OS until 2023.

Car tech was a big deal at CES and hot on the heels of the annual tech fest is the 2018 North American International Auto Show also just known as the Detroit Auto Show which is going on now in Detroit. Ford is in attendance of course and they've brought two cars to the show worth mentioning especially since they're the same car just fifty years apart we're talking about the Bullitt Mustang of course the iconic Mean Green fastback machine driven by the king of cool Steve McQueen in the movie Bullitt.
The actual car has been in the hands of a single family for decades and Ford just debuted a new tribute Bullitt Mustang for 2019 to celebrate the 50-year anniversary of the movie. They also borrowed the original car from its current owner whose father paid $6,000 for it in 1974. The unrestored original Bullitt Mustang is still a runner and many collectors consider it the holy grail of movie cars with a value perhaps north of $4 million dollars.
The owner gave Steve McQueen's granddaughter a seat in the car in this cool video and he says he has no plans to sell it check out the new and original Bullitt Mustangs at the link below.
