New Amazon Robot; College Scholarships for Video Gamers

Ashland University’s varsity e-sports team wants to start competing in Fortnite. To get the best players, the Ohio school is offering $4,000 scholarships, which can be found on its athletics web page.  So far this year, Google has spent over $5 million, Facebook $3.3 million, and Amazon $3.38 million in lobbying fees. Last year, those three companies and Apple spent about $50 million in D.C.  And, Vesta could be the name of Amazon’s next big product. The home robot is just entering the proto-type phase.
