See the screenshot above? Yeah, that’s one of our articles copy & pasted onto one of our new favorite websites TeckMunch which seems to be run by a guy named Irvin Dominguez, and by the looks of it he’s pretty much a loner. So, you may be asking “why write an article about some dude copying an Okay Geek original post?” — well, you’ll see why we’re pretty miffed after the break.

PSN restoration begins -- Sony issues Presidential address and details

So all I have to do is make a successful gaming platform and then run it into the ground with an out-of-date security system, vulnerable to 4chan hackers, and I too can have an office overlooking the Tokyo landscape? Dude, I’m so on it. But while I go do that, here’s Kaz Hirai, President and CEO of SCEI, filling you in on all the recent details on when and how PSN will be rolling back into your homes, so you can finally get your shot at Portal 2’s Co-Op. — Details and video after the break!

Google Music Beta streams your entire music collection online

It was only a matter of time until someone finally decided to step up to Apple and its iTunes platform. During Google’s I/O conference, the search giant announced a new service dubbed Music Beta that won’t specifically be an iTunes clone, meaning it won’t offer an online music store, but it would rather be a dedicated music player that will cross over multiple computers, browsers, and Android devices, and stream your already existing music collection over the cloud. Excited? — Juicy details after the break!

Microsoft readying to buy Skype for $8 billion

First Facebook and now Microsoft, it would seem that Skype is quite the commodity to have! For some time now there have been talks that Skype was ready to move onto bigger and better things, well mostly because they’re in debt some $600+ million dollars (how that happens I don’t know), but a new owner would certainly help make that hole disappear. And it seems that Microsoft has a few ideas with what they could do with the popular communications service. — Details after the break!

PSN Update: Free Games, No Deadline, Deal with it

As the days and weeks go by with PSN still down I wonder, will people who bought Portal 2 ever get a chance to enjoy its amazing Co-Op? Will Sony’s E3 press conference be nothing but an announcement as to when the service will be returning? Or will they skim over it and tease a new system just to get over this PR nightmare they’ve gotten themselves into? These questions have no answer but it’s easy to poke fun. Kevin Butler hasn’t shown his mug on tv in a while so we got to entertain ourselves somehow. — PSN update after the break!

Twitter acquires Tweetdeck for loads of cash

Which iOS twitter client do you use? If you’re like most then probably TweetDeck (though I’m not one of them!) Well, sad to say that it looks like Tweetdeck is going to be acquired by Twitter for roughly $50 million. What’s this mean for the future of the mobile and desktop app, we’re not exactly sure. — Check out the details after the break!
