A Robot That Can Follow A Recipe & Bake Cookies
We've seen a lot of robots over the past few years, and when you see the video below, you might not think it's anything really impressive. However, think about it... This robot can mix up homemade cookie dough, knead it to just the right consistency, make a giant cookie, and bake it for exactly the ...
A Tiny Tilt-Shift Time-Lapse World Created With A Smartphone

The Evolution Of Portable Music [Infographic]
With the mp3 file format came a whole new revolution of technology and also a lot of whining from the record companies.

The Cost Of Being The First Kid On The Block [Infographic]
I have pointed it out many times before, but I suppose another time won't hurt us a bit. Technology is rapidly progressing, and it isn't unusual for us to buy something at the store only to get back home, install it, and find out that what we just bought is actually yesterday's hype. It happens to m ...
The Ultimate Internet Troll’s Dickhead Rating Chart
This little chart below has gone completely viral in the past 24 hours. When I looked at it more closely, I understood why. It touches on a topic that many bloggers are familiar with, and that is Internet trolling. If you have comments open on your blog, and if you don't moderate them (we don't mode ...
Baand Remote: Next Gen Remote Control Is Here
It's hard to think that the remote control could be anything other than just a piece of plastic with a bunch of buttons on it. There have been some developments as far as its design the last couple of years, and we've seen universal remotes that have LCD screens instead of the old and boring plastic ...

Freelance At A Glance: The Complete Statistics [Infographic]
As a freelancer, there is just one thing that you never seem to have enough of, and that is time.

Every freelancer has bee ...

Whoa! Mobile Gaming By The Numbers [Infographic]
When I read today that 53% of mobile gamers are female, I knew I had to write this article. It just goes to show that once again chicks rule! At the end of 2009 and beginning of 2010 we saw a shift in gaming (along with social media, shopping habits, and everything else pretty much) to being more mo ...
Arc Touch Mouse: A New Era Has Begun
I rarely write about anything that Microsoft does anymore, and I am kind of ashamed about that. Sure, they have the XBox, Kinect and all that, but I don't necessarily think that's Microsoft for some odd reason. When it comes to products from Microsoft, I have been off put by the lack of innovation t ...

I couldn't even tell you how many times I have worked with people in the studio who keep their diva personality up in the air as best they can. It's not only annoying, but it brings all the creativity down to a minimum, if even that. At those times, you just want to scream, but that would probably n ...
