  • Can’t wait! Nightfall for iOS Coming Soon

    I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: I love the Android mobile platform but when it comes to this little niche of board game / card game titles, iOS is always first to market. If you’re a board game geek, you’ll be pleased to know that Nightfall is coming to the App Store…

  • Be the first in line for Instagram for Android

    Finally, after months of waiting Android users will ***soon*** be able to become part of the Instagram community.

  • Real or Fake: Pirate Bay announces it will start hosting using low orbit servers

    Say what you want about software pirates but you cannot deny the fact that software piracy is building the future of computing tomorrow, today. Think of the most popular application for distributing your movies and music — torrents — and how it is being used to share information in the most convenient way possible. My…

  • Thoughts on the Samsung Galaxy Beam: Android Phone with Built-in Projector

    I really want this phone to fly. Well, if not the phone, then at least the concept of adding a 15-lumen projector to a smartphone, in the same way that cameras and GPS are now built into your mobile, it doesn’t get highlighted as a main selling point, but as a staple in handheld devices.…
