New York, NY, USA (December 24, 2013) — Google has been ratcheting up attention for the Nexus 7 on its own social networking site, Google+. It recently ran a giveaway encouraging users to compose still photos including their Nexus tablet and post them using the hashtag #whatmatters. Indeed, as pointed out by Shana Norris, Google seems to be constantly making the news with its Nexus tablet. The most recent rumblings involve the Nexus 10 2, the newest version of its 10-inch tablet. Rumor has it that the Nexus 10 2 may launch ahead of CES 2014, the annual international consumer electronics and technology trade show, the self-described “global stage where next-generation innovations are introduced to the marketplace,” to take place January 7-10 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
