Android and Samsung seemed to come up lots too:

Facebook and Revenue were brought up a good deal as well:
- Little "Want" Button Code Foreshadows Big Things For Facebook Ecommerce - "Last week, developer Tom Waddington uncovered Facebook code that points to the creation of a "Want" button - a plugin that potentially points to a new kind of commercial innovation being developed by Facebook itself, different from "want" buttons already being developed by third parties (one example here), and partially working but only within Facebook's Graph API tester" - said techcrunch.com

To finish up we should take a quick look at European Parliament and United States.

Did you catch all the talk about Boson and Large Hadron Collider? Here's the most interesting links:
- CERN Discovery: Scientists Find New Subatomic Particle That Could Be The Elusive Higgs Boson - "GENEVA/LONDON, July 4 (Reuters) - Scientists at the CERN research centre have found a new subatomic particle that could be the Higgs boson, the basic building block of the universe. "I can confirm that a particle has been discovered that is consistent with the Higgs boson theory," said John Womersley, chief executive of Britain's Science and Technology Facilities Council at an event in London. Joe Incandela, spokesman for one of the two teams hunting for the Higgs particle told an audience at CERN near Geneva: "This is a preliminary result, but we think it's very strong and very solid." The Higgs particle, although crucial for understanding how the universe was formed, remains theoretical" - said www.huffingtonpost.com
