Not one, but two, gaming companies have done some employee layoffs this week. Both BioWare and 38 Studios have let some, or all, of their employees go. As someone who enjoys playing video games, I find this to be sad news. No one wants to be unemployed, and especially not from something that many gamers would consider to be a

The Internets are quietly humming with the recent realization that Apple is, uh, absorbing your “personal” data if you use Siri – the voice-activated personal assistant (of sorts) that lives in the iPhone 4S (launched in October 2011).

The fact is that 23 of the world's top 100 web sites
Many of us have trouble keeping up with our RSS feeds, there are too many and we don’t have time. For some people who are dyslexic or have sight problems reading can be difficult and frustrating.

Google today announced better search integration for Gmail, their popular web-based email service. The new and improved version will have a more thorough auto-complete feature thanks to better crawling of the messages in your email.
