Smart Homes: Better Lifestyle Or Invitation For Hackers? [Infographic]
There's a paradox in the way we live today. We want to live 'smart lives' in our 'smart homes,' yet we also want to do whatever we have to do to keep hackers out of our lives.

Last year we featured a tongue controlled MP3 player. Although I could appreciate the innovation behind it, the implementation of that device was a little wacky. It looked like a retainer you'd get from the orthodontist. I was excited to get rid of my retainer when I was 17 years old, so I couldn't ...
