Classic - Noah Wyle imitating Steve Jobs at Keynote
Now if you aren’t familiar with Noah Wyle, he is the guy who played Steve Jobs in the cult classic Pirates of Silicon Valley. Obviously, Steve Jobs didn’t like the movie as it showed a lot of his “not so nice” side, and everyone figured the CEO of Apple hated everyone involved with that movie. Not so true, as Noah Wyle walks on stage pretending to be Steve Jobs… soon after, a complete nerd-fest ensues.

A brief history of Apple's iPad - Infographic
It goes without saying that the iPod, iPhone and iPad have all left the tech industry scratching it’s head. It’s hard to believe that Apple managed to release a product into a dying and risky market (the tablet market) and turn it into something every other tech company wanted a part of. In the beginning, the iPad was a big joke, and nobody expected it to even dent the tech industry, and much to our surprise, the iPad has become one of the most important pieces of technology in the past two decades.

This robot can catch balls and make coffee like a boss - Video
When you really think of it, the roots of the robot apocalypse is the ability for the robots to take over our every day tasks. Decades without having to do every-day things to take care of ourselves will make us reliant on robots, and therefore give them the leverage they need to overthrow mankind. This video demonstrates the beginning of the end.

Michael Scott's best moments of The Office
Yesterday was one of the saddest days in TV history as Michael Scott quietly said goodbye to his co-workers, crossed off names on a piece of paper and tried to end things on a good note. At 4PM he gathered his things, left his familiar office, headed to the airport and took flight to Colorado. We don’t know what the future holds for The Office, but it’s just nice to see Michael Scott be able to get everything off his chest… that’s what she said…

1994 predicted the rise of the iPad and its success
1994 predicted the rise of the iPad and its success
Interactive graphics, embedded videos, and a small form factor, this is exactly what the iPad became and to think it was predicted back over 10 years ago. For those who watched the video at that time they perhaps couldn’t even fathom a world without the newspaper.

How massively gigantic is Google exactly?
When you think of it, we really couldn’t live without Google. They made web searching useful, they created a video sharing site that gobbles 24 hours of video every minute (4 years worth of video every day) and they have a slew of different services that make online life possible. It’s truly astonishing that a company who used lego bricks to build servers has now gone public and has almost 40,000 employees. Here is how massively gigantic Google is…

PC - Hector: Badge of Carnage Episode 1 Review
Hector: Badge of Carnage released earlier this year as an Iphone exclusive title by Straandlooper Animation, and now Telltale has picked it up in order to publish it on a wider variety of platforms. It’s hit PC’s this week and radiates some great ideas, namely the art style and mature premise as well as some fairly good voice acting and dialogue. Though its gameplay isn’t always exciting, I also feel like the objectives aren’t always clearly laid out, which essentially breaks the flow of these games in an instant. If you can overcome these, then Hector is an enjoyable experience but it feels like it’s overshadowed by Telltale’s previous games. — Our review after the break!
