On this episode of The New Screen Savers for Saturday, January 13, 2018, with Leo Laporte and Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ:
- Padre is back from Vegas and the huge CES 2018 extravaganza and blackout. He talks about all the cool tech he saw and what the big theme of the show was. Plus, Scott Wilkinson reports on the home theater gear that caught his eye.
- We meet Chris Sheldrick, Co-founder & CEO of what3words.com, a company who has mapped the entire planet using three words for every three square meter parcel. Plus it was announced this week that Mercedes-Benz bought 10% of the company.
- Jason Howell shows us how to free up space on our Android phone with Google's new file management app Files Go.
- Megan Morrone reviews ten new iPhone X cases.
- We talk about the scary ballistic missile false alarm in Hawaii, Facebook moving media companies from their timelines, Signal encryption coming to Skype, and why AT&T is dropping Huawei phones.
