Here's what you need to know. Though I recently diagnosed rumors of a Facebook phone as “overblown,” it appears I was mistaken. Nick Bilton of the New York Times this week reported on Facebook’s interest in entering the hardware business--and the rest of the tech press has piled on saying what a terrible idea it is.

The drug giant is hoping to boost its innovation pipeline with new funding for early-stage biotechnology research. With pharmaceutical industry research budgets shrinking, large drug companies are instead looking to support early-stage biotechnology startups. Merck, Eli Lilly, and GlaxoSmithKline have all announced investments in such companies in recent mon […]
