For Future of Facebook, Privacy Matters
May 1st
Call this my open letter to Mark Zuckerberg. Facebook’s latest changes to privacy have many people up in arms, and rightly so. Contrary to Zuckerberg, privacy is still a major concern amongst web users.
Apple vs Adobe: It’s About More than the iPad
May 1st
The loyal customer and fan-based debates from mid-April, coupled with the latest debates between Apple and Adobe themselves make one thing clear: history always repeats itself. Both sides put their own spin on the situation, so lets look back…
You Know You’re Addicted to Twitter When…
Apr 30th
Solitaire. Mario Kart. Farmville. Twitter. It’s so easy to get addicted to, well, just about anything these days. Am I a Twitter addict?
