Filmed with the GoPro HD Hero 2 in 720p and 60 fps. I put the camera inside a tissue box and attached a laser pointer on top of it. Shoe laces were tied to the laser pointer, which allowed me to move the box around. [GoPro HD HERO2 | TTCdirecktor]
It’s one of those things that Apple fans love to lord over the PC-lovers and, more recently, the Android-lovers. Viruses and malware. Apple just seems to get fewer. It probably has to do with the fact that the Google Play system is a lot more open than the Apple App Store. With all the good […]
http://youtu.be/vM9U70HgLsQ Say what you want about Apple, they’re pretty good at marketing their stuff. They’ve had a pretty good recipe of clean white backgrounds to showcase the product being advertised and a carefully crafted voice-over making the features sound like conversation pieces. They kinda make the tech a talking piece – which isn’t an entirely […]
You might assume that children can learn something from using tech devices, but it’s hard to isolate the results from other education and life influences. But the man behind the One Laptop Per Child program says he found encouraging results by running a semi-controlled experiment in two Ethiopian villages.

In fact, since major label Warner Music was holding out, the whole thing was hampered by a lack of good music. That has now changed, […]
In a world where ‘modern design’ usually involves glass and polymers, Robbie Tilton was sick of nature being left out in the cold. For those glued to their desks and missing a little greenery in their lives, allow us to introduce you to the “Natural Keyboard”. Tilton went through a lot of effort to figure […]
Apple has complied with a British court’s demand that it publicly admit the Samsung Galaxy Tab doesn’t rip-off the iPad (according to the UK legal system at least.) But the way it’s done is a masterclass of making the best of a bad situation. As we noted in July, although Apple has had some court […]
We’ve heard lots of tales of staff at tech companies being allowed to use “breakout rooms” with all manner of beanbags and foosball tables to promote creative thinking. But most companies would draw the line at spending your working day going off for a hike. Not Google, where two executives are among those who’ve been […]
Samsung looks set to no longer supply LCD panels for Apple’s portable devices. Perhaps predictably it’s unclear which side is initiating the break-up. A “senior Samsung source” told the Korea Times of the split, saying it will take effect from next year. It seems Apple has been cutting back on using Samsung screens, with the […]
