Famous Gadget Battles
We’ve been witness to a lot of tech battles, both now and in the past.
Decades ago, one of the premier technological battles was between the Betamax and the VCR. The clear cut winner is arguably obsolete in this day and age, but there still remains technological wars to be won to this day.
After witnessing most of these tech gad [...]

Researchers in Finland have made a prototype pair of glasses that attaches to a small handheld computer and retrieves information from a database.

Google’s conferences always have an awesome freebie with attendance, at several conferences; they’ve given away their phones (Nexus One) and other’s (G1, EVO 4G). This is some pretty great loot, but it looks like their latest conference is going to be remembered by its 600 attendees as the best one yet. What could be better th [...]

In the first part of this segment on Windows Media Center (WMC) customization, we’ve covered how to view RSS feeds, see the Weather, and set a Sleep Timer.

Windows Media Center is a simple and robust media center, and is actually a pretty good piece of software that comes in all versions of Vista and Windows 8. While it does take care of all the basic things that any media center application is expected to do, it still fells a bit… lacking. Windows Media Center (WMC) seems to [...]
