Steve Ballmer last week presented an interesting plan to kill Android -- or at least compete with it.

I don't think they even made it to 10 percent before the tablet market collapsed, and...
Microsoft this week launched a survey for Windows Insiders, seeking candidates for a limited beta of Cortana for iOS.

Chromecast helps people easily stream whatever they want through their TV via a simple dongle. Now Google's adding a splash of color to the device, along with a string of new features.
