Anyone who has even dabbled in professional photography can tell you the benefits of shooting RAW. Sure, the files take up significantly more space, but the ability to access all the untouched data and dynamic range before it gets crushed into a JPEG is priceless. Sometimes, having that access can save an otherwise ruined picture. […]
Come on, Newt. You’ve got to be kidding us with this. Failed presidential candidate Newt Gingrich released a humdinger of a video on Friday through his company’s YouTube channel. Gingrich is concerned with what to call these newfangled walkie-talkies that play moving pictures and point you to the local McDonald’s. “Cellular telephone” doesn’t cut it, […]
Remember all the hubbub about 3D printed guns? No? Not even when the U.S. government gave a firearms licence to Defense Distributed, the biggest name in renderable firearms? This past week was another huge one for DD, as it printed and tested the new Liberator gun, an all plastic gun that only needs the addition of a nail to serve […]

I have no choice but to play the same levels, over and over again, when going from phone to tablet and back again. The folks at Rovio clearly feel my pain, and […]

The once science-fiction concept of creating complex solid objects out of raw materials on demand has the potential to disrupt just about every form of industry in the world. One of the biggest blockades has been acceptability. While some universities have […]

HTC was one of the first to join the smartphone party, which makes the company’s current lowest ever earnings even more disappointing. While Samsung and Apple battle for top dog, HTC has been putting out well-reviewed handsets and fighting for scraps. In a shot across everyone else’s bow, HTC is aggressively pursuing owners of existing handsets. This isn’t […]
Google has finally taken the cool but creepy Google Now application and put it on a non-Android platform. Starting today, iOS users can download an update to the Google Search app that adds some of the amazing functions of Google predictive personal assistant. What is Google Now anyway, you ask? It’s a system where Google’s various services […]
Microsoft has found itself in an interesting situation by going from having a zero percent market share in tablets to having a 7.5 percent share, according to market research analyst company Strategy Analytics. That sounds wonderful, until you see that Apple maintained a previous percentage of 48 percent and Android’s numbers depend on if you count only […]
