The interesting glitches of Battlefield 3 Beta - Video
I have been playing Battlefield 3 Beta for a while now, and I have to say that I am quite impressed. It feels pretty awesome, the web interface (although it needs a bit of work) functions really well, and the sound is incredible. The one special thing that retail copies of Battlefield 3 will not offer is hilarious glitches, so I thought I’d save them up and make this video.
14 Tech products that failed miserably - Infographic
When we think of today’s tech market with all the incredible gadgets, all of the failures and losses sort of slip away. All we remember are the amazing gadgets we owned, but every time we look back, the misfits are left out of history. Sure they sucked, but they were ahead of their time, reaching for the stars when everyone was still on the moon, showing us what was coming, and they were right most of the time.

Anderson Cooper doesn't seem to understand Reddit - (Video)
You’d think of all people Anderson Cooper would get how the internet works by now, but this video seems to prove otherwise. I can only imagine what CNN and Cooper’s producers might think of 4chan if they ever got found themsleves staring at a screen of /b/.
Swyp brings printing to the 21st century -- (Concept)
It’s quite interesting when you look at how computers have evolved over the past decades, while printers, have for the most part, stayed relatively the same, with the exception of a few minor tweaks and revisions to how images and documents get printed.

And boy, does it make me want to throw my money at my computer screen. — More after the break!

Throughout the years many variations of Link’s and Zelda’s have come and gone, but none of them ever really displayed much romantic interest in each other. Well, that’s all set to change in Skyward Sword as Nintendo has made it crystal clear in self-titled ‘Romantic trailer’ that this princess is into her knight in green armor.
iPhone 5 gets physical mock up, looks almost as good as the real deal - (Pictures)
T-minus 4 days and counting until Apple blows the lid off their plans on what comes next in the iPhone line. Will it be a minute revision, as in the iPhone 4S model we’ve been hearing so much about? Or will we be given the first look at the next generation… the iPhone 5? Well, we certainly have had time to speculate all this time, but there are still some out there who are rendering and trying to get their first glimpse on the i5 before it’s even debuted by Apple. Here’s one such case of a physical mock up that could very well be the final look of our next big smartphone. — More after the break!





Has the Internet been censored all along? - (Video)
I’ve always noticed that some people don’t show up in my Facebook news feed but I never cared much to fix it. I also thought that Google showed the same results to everyone. Surprisingly both sites use algorithms to only show me information that it thinks I will like. Now this is great and all but people shouldn’t be sheltered from other points of view or other facts. It begs the question: are our websites too personalized?
