Hello guys, recently I've been reading old posts I made on this website, and I saw the videos I posted on YouTube, I remembered those old memories (Not so old, maybe half year?). I used to have a lot of fun writing those articles about what happened in the tech world and making videos about what geeks like me loved.

Then, I taught to myself: Should I do this again? I though about it for a long time until I decided today to relaunch everything from my YouTube channel, to the Twitter account, th...

Facebook has just announced a new platform that will allow developers to advertise applications through the social network’s mobile platform. Facebook says it has already driven 146 million users to the iTunes App Store and Google Play in the past 30 days, but the main point here is that Facebook is finally monetizing its mobile application.

Since the company became public, Facebook has been highly criticized by the media for lacking a clear plan to get revenue from its mobile platform. Well...

 The Samsung Galaxy S III is clearly Samsung’s biggest hit at the moment - the device is selling by the millions and so far we’ve heard the 10 million figure tossed around. No wonder it will be the first Samsung device to get updated to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean (not counting the Galaxy Nexus, that is). 

Website Sam Mobile has now used its inside sources to share the rumors that the Jelly Bean firmware for the Galaxy S III has passed the testing stage and engineers are working on the public r...

And we thought Apple’s factory conditions were bad.

An exhaustive 31 page report documents a behind the scenes look at HEG Electronics, which is responsible for producing some of Samsung’s best gadgets. It’s ...

According to Apple Senior Vice President Scott Forstall, the company explicitly requested that Samsung not copy its rubber banding patent. Yet, following the introduction of the iPhone in 2007, that’s exactly what followed.

During Forstall’s deposition on Tuesday, the Apple SVP told a jury that Steve Jobs expressly and unambiguously stated, “Here’s something we invented. Don’t — don’t copy it. Don’t steal it.”

Forstall explained that the rubber banding effect (381′ patent) w...

Apple released the fourth beta version of iOS 6 and now we’re starting to see some of the changes. The most noticeable difference right now is that Apple has apparently completely removed the native YouTube application from iOS 6. That’s insane, especially since it has been a staple feature on the iPhone for the past 5 years. Apple has already removed the Google Maps system, and replace it by Apple Maps (as we call it "iMaps"), so we’re wondering if this is another sign of a growing rif...

It’s Christmas Eve, Buffalo, and that means jolly old St. Nick is currently making final preparations before he goes on his annual journey around the world. Which list did you make this year, naughty or nice? Whatever the case, NORAD, a U.S.-Canada air defense directorate, will once again use its high-tech satellites to track Santa Claus as he flies with his reindeer across the night sky.

NORAD has been keeping tabs on Santa since 1955, first happening by mistake. As the story goes, a Color...

Yesterday, news began to spread concerning the questionable cancellation of Team Ico and Sony’s upcoming The Last Guardian for the PlayStation 3. Customers that had pre-ordered the title from GameStop were receiving pre-recorded calls stating that the game had, unfortunately, been cancelled by the publisher. The call went further to tell gamers that they could either get their money back or put it towards reserving an entirely different product.

GameStop employees even suggested that the com...
