Steve Jobs was one of us. The ultimate anti-establishment rebel who became the establishment, yet refused to play by anyone else’s rules. A geek kid from California who dropped out of college, played with electronics in his garage, and over the course of his 56 years, changed the world forever. Jobs’ fans and admirers are…
The holidays are coming and that means it’s time for some Christmas gift shopping! It can be challenging to think up ideas on what to give your loved ones during this season. However, if they are Apple fans, one of the easiest items to buy for them are T-shirts. It’s simple yet functional. Depending on…
I’ve never been a big fan of cases for the iPhone. I’ve always felt that it’s a crime to hide the beauty and sleek design of the iPhone behind a huge case. So when I was asked to review a case from Snugg, I wasn’t sure how it would turn out. Asked to choose…
Just yesterday, I wrote about wishing for Apple wireless earbuds that stay in place, and while it may not come true anytime soon, an affordable alternative might just be around the corner.

Adventure gamers will go ga-ga over Mumbo Jumbo’s Samantha Swift and the Fountains of Fate — particularly if you enjoy scavenger hunts, though the game offers quite a bit more than that. And at $9.99 (pretty pricy for an iOS game), it had better.

Called iBeacon, this service works via Bluetooth and the Apple Store App for the iPhone to get location-based information when arriving at one of their stores. The iBeacon system is far more precise than GPS-based methods for finding exactly where someone…

You’ve probably already noticed by now what a mess your cables have created. One way of tidying up such clutter is by incorporating desktop cable organizers to…
If Indiana Jones owned a laptop, this is the bag he’d carry it in. Try not to drool.
You know just how much we dislike having a mess of cables, and while this is inevitable in some parts of the house, if one can employ solutions like Quirky’s, then we’re all for it! While I am a huge fan of Quirky, there is something to be said about wooden accessories. This is especially…
