The old IT joke is "It's not a bug, it's a FEATURE!" Well, Apple's latest "bug" is definitely a "feature" for them, and a huge breach of trust for those of us using Apple's iPhone and iPad. It turns out the "bug" is recording the locations that your device has been logging into (both wi-fi and cell towers) since last
While Bluray and USB3 are where it's at, it's easy to forget that there's a solid market for inexpensive legacy optical drives. And it's into this market that Buffalo have today released a stylish portable DVD recorder for those of us who have laptops or netbooks that don't have a CD/DVD drive. It's pretty much run of the mill spec-wise,
I hope you have been pleased with the format tweak, while all may not be 100% apparent I have made some major process changes here over the past 2-3 shows that I am going to work very to keep in check. One thing should be obvious slightly shorter show.. 1 hour and 10 minutes +/- 4 minutes is the goal..
I recently installed a VOIP phone app on my iPod called “Whistle.” Whistle is gives you a free incoming phone number that can be called from other phones, along with free domestic phone calls within the U.S. Since my Sprint “Simply Everything” phone plan gives me unlimited voice calls within the U.S., I don’t really need the free voice calling
I know you’ve seen it – someone using the “Push To Talk” feature on their company phone that essentially turns it in to a sort of high-tech walkie-talkie. Would you like to be able to do something similar with your Android or iOS device? Enter a free iOS/Android app called “Heytell.” Heytell is sort of a cross between “Push To
Of course, the Onion is a satirical newspaper (founded in my hometown, I am proud to say). The video version, which you can find onRoku as a channel, is a great way to spend some downtime. Yet, every now and then, they hit one out of the park. Video: In The Know: Should The Nation's Unemployed Be Buying New Apple Computers? In
Want to give your tired old computer a speed boost? Listen up -- this is a good one! A few days ago my 17” MacBook Pro shut down a couple of times due to overheating issues, so I ended up taking it to the local Mac dealer to get it cleaned out – a truck is a surprisingly dirty operating
I have been looking for a simple task manager, that is easy to use and available on all platforms. There are a lot of great task managers available, such as Things and Omni Focus but many are either too complicated or too expensive. After trying many I think I finally found what I was looking for in Wunderlist. Wunderlist is
There have been rumors circulating on the internet for a while now about a Dell Streak 10" tablet that would be called the Dell Streak Pro. Now the folks over at Android Central have come up with the proof. They have published a leaked tablet roadmap from Dell that lists, not just the Streak Pro, but two other tablets. The
For content creators like me that have 3-4 live shows a week, there have been few affordable live streaming options. While there are literally hundreds of companies in the live streaming business, their pricing plans are designed to support their significant capital costs in running those services. Generally the pricing, terms, caps and limitations they set in their offerings are
If you are into technology or not you couldn’t have missed the out cry over the story that the iPhone is capturing your location data and storing it on both the phone and the computer it is sync to. There have been many articles written on the subject, many which were written to clearly capture the reader attention, like Your
Buffalo's MiniStation portable USB 3.0 hard drive is a 500 GB SATA 2.5" HDD in a small and not unattractive package. Coming in crystal white (and piano black), it will certainly appeal to those who want to match their white Apple products without wanting to pay for the Apple logo.
