| 3 Wicked Wikipedia Websites [Weird & Wonderful Web] Posted: 19 Apr 2014 05:30 PM PDT  Wikipedia is one of the absolutely essential elements of the Internet, but, as with everything else that has ever existed, it’s far from flawless. Bad writing, factual errors, and overly verbose descriptions of banal topics are all in plentiful supply. Which is where these three websites are entertainingly invaluable in helping us all keep an eye on Wikipedia and the content it’s throwing out into the ether. All of them are funny, all are useful, and all are definitely worth bookmarking for future reference. Citation Needed The phrase “Citation Needed” has well and truly broken free of its moorings and... Read the full article: 3 Wicked Wikipedia Websites [Weird & Wonderful Web] |
| This Beautiful Browser Add-On Gives You Interesting Stats About Your Browsing Posted: 19 Apr 2014 02:00 PM PDT  Is there anything more interesting on than statistics? Not the school type, the Internet type. Following your own activity is fascinating, so it’s no wonder that tools that track your Gmail statistics, blog statistics and even Facebook statistics are so popular. But what about “you” statistics? Or shall we say, a stats selfie? No, I’m not talking about your height, weight and eye-color. I’m sure you can figure those out on your own. I’m talking about the way you surf the Web every day, the websites you visit and your surfing habits. This is not about a specific website or...

| How To Make Sure You Buy The Best Headphones For Your Budget Posted: 19 Apr 2014 12:00 PM PDT  There’s no such thing as a “best” pair of headphones. The one you should get is entirely dependent on your budget, your setup, and what you’re going to be using the headphones for. Forget about price tags. Sometimes, the $50 headphones may end up being better for you than a $400 pair. It’s all about context. How do you determine the “best” pair of headphones then? Here are some things to keep in mind before you commit to a purchase. Over Ear vs. On Ear vs. In Ear All headphones fall into one of three categories based on how the...

| Amazon Fire TV And Fire TV Game Controller Review & Giveaway Posted: 19 Apr 2014 11:30 AM PDT  We’ve heard rumors that Amazon would be bringing some sort of Android device for watching videos and playing games to market. Those rumors turned out to be true, because Amazon launched the $99 Fire TV, a device not unlike the Apple TV, but with gaming as a perk. Of course, this is an incredibly competitive space, but if there’s a company out there that can jump right in and make waves, it would most definitely be Amazon. So how does the Fire TV perform? Well, we ordered the device itself as well as their gaming controller and tested them. Even... Read the full article: Amazon Fire TV And Fire TV Game Controller Review & Giveaway |
| Goodreads Adds Amazon Integration For Adding Purchases To Shelf Posted: 19 Apr 2014 10:30 AM PDT  Goodreads, the popular social service that allows users to share what they are reading with friends, has just made it a lot easier for users to add new purchases from Amazon to their bookshelves. Since many people make their book purchases from Amazon (which actually started as a book-seller before becoming the eCommerce giant we all know and love today), this is a smart move for the social reading service. This new feature is quite easy to use, with a simple link from the “My Books” page that allows users to add their physical book purchases and Kindle purchases to their...

What could be quicker than using Flickr’s overhauled app for iOS and Android? Significant new features have just been added to the smartphone apps which is the biggest update since Yahoo went for a complete redesign of the Flickr app at the fag end of 2012.
