Frankestein SSD-like storage on the cheap with the HDDBOOST.

Frankestein SSD-like storage on the cheap with the HDDBOOST.

Want a gadget to nominate in the “gadget/invention of the year” award? Look no further than the HDDBOOST. It’s a super simple concept: a small box that has SATA connections for SSD and traditional spinning drives. The beauty of it is that the SSD you plug in (32GB recommended) acts as a big buffer to the slower, spinning hard drive, allowing you to only access the old giant when you need to directly access files. The pro’s are of course added...

Criminals going straight 140. Twitter regulation coming to Mexico?

Criminals going straight 140.  Twitter regulation coming to Mexico?

Ever heard the term the “minority ruin it for the majority”?  I’m not knocking on minorities like one typically thinks here.  I’m knocking on “minorities” such as criminals — always ruining things for us more legally abiding folk.  Take for instance social networking sites, focusing more on Twitter.  It’s fast.  It’s easy.  It’s convenient.  That’s why a massive group of consumers use it.  Just as...

I mean, there isn’t any reason to support two wireless standards when only one is needed. But those behind Bluetooth press on. The formal Bluetooth 3.0 spec was announced way back in April of 2009 — so very long ago. It wasn’t until…now…February 2010 that we are finally seeing the first Bluetooth...

Run OS X 10.3 (albeit painfully slow) on a Nokia N900!

OS X 10.3 + Nokia N900 = All kinds of geeky smiles. I know that mobile phones are gaining power and versatility by the day, but damn! Have you ever seen such a “modern” OS running on such a mobile device? Then again, if you call a 90+ minute boot-up time “modern” or “fast”, you deserve to be drop kicked in the face. Moving on…the heroics of this feat come from the land of Finland, by a man who goes by the name of ” Toni...
