Your Friday Tech go-to,  Samantha, will be taking a break from her weekly reviews, so I am here to serve it up in her absence. This past week (and last week) brought us tons of tech updates, so let's get right into it!

This week's review takes a look at what the government needs from tech companies, China's current suspension on its tech regulations for banks, and what the future looks like for the ad tech industry.  

People were waiting anxiously for Apple to release its number of pre-ordered iWatches. Some are estimating between 957,000 and 2 million. Step back for one minute to think about this. Those orders were made before it even hit shelves. 

Wearables have been gaining popularity over the years, whether it is the FitBit or an iWacth.

This week's review looks at the court case on patents in the tech industry, Silicon Valley leaders signing a joint statement against discrimination in business, and the shift in tech property. 

This week's review expresses a view on equal-opportunity and professionalism, shares a philosophy of investing in human capital rather than rent space, and looks at the impressive growth that is happening in the industry for private data storage.
