Late last week, Google announced an Easter Egg for its main search page (announcing it makes it less of an Easter Egg, but whatever) by adding a random search spinner when a user hovers over the search engine’s “I’m feeling lucky” button. “I’m Feeling Artistic” leads to the Google Art Project, “I’m Feeling Playful” leads […]
Facebook has updated its iOS app today to brand new version 5.0, which will hopefully address a top concern of users that the app has been clunky and slow. Facebook Inc. launched the app via the iTunes App Store, with few listed improvements, but one major change: the app has been rebuilt from the ground […]

Targeting people who wanted to build work connections, I distinctly recall signing up for it and thinking “and now what?” I still use my account, but only because the tool I use to update my Twitter and Facebook […]
Ah, temptation. You see a device just sitting there, say an iPhone, so you decide to swipe it. Except, it turns out that you’re not too technically inclined, and you don’t take the time to erase it. Unbeknownst to you, the iPhone starts saving the photos you’re snapping to the original owner’s PhotoStream. Oops. According […]
I’m not usually the go-to guy to talk about the stock market, but allow me to quietly guffaw at Facebook’s disastrous second day on Monday as the newly-public company’s stock lost 10.99 percent of its price at the end of trading on Friday.
