Time Warner AT&T Merger Could Spell Disaster for Entertainment Fans
October 23rd, 2016 Carl Williams
It is no secret that Time Warner and AT&T are in talks to merge with AT&T taking on the former as a subsidiary. This, on paper, sounds kind of cool. The concern I have with this going through lays with the entertainment side of things. Is having AT&T in control of things such as Warner […]

Non-Traditional Attack Takes Down Major DNS Provider
October 22nd, 2016 lonehorseend
Misinformation can spread like wildfire and do more damage than the actual disastrous event. Take the October 21st cyber attack against Dyn. Some called it a “false flag” event. Others blamed the recent hand off of domain name control to ICANN. My 10+ years as a web developer leads me to believe there was no conspiracy and the […]

Vudu Launches Free Streaming Service
October 19th, 2016 Carl Williams
It is interesting to note that more and more companies that control a lot of digital content are getting into offering a free option to viewers. This is obviously movies and television focused as we won’t see Steam allowing similar things to happen with their gaming library anytime soon. One early company to find success […]

2 Things Pokemon GO Plus Device Does That Are Not Advertised
September 18th, 2016 Carl Williams
The new Pokemon GO Plus is a neat little option for hardcore Pokemon GO fans. It is, at its heart, a pedometer for the game of the same name. You wear it, walk and it tracks your steps. Great. Initially advertised as an accessory to help catch the little sneaky digital creatures, there is more […]

Samsung Admits Galaxy Note 7 Has Battery Problems
September 15th, 2016 Carl Williams
Samsung used to be the cream of the crop if you were wanting an Android phone. At least that is the image they wanted Android fans to think. Detractors have felt Samsung devices have problems while fans simply cannot see them. What about when the company flat out admits there is a problem? That is […]

Sony and Bethesda Fail to Reach Agreement on Game Mods
September 9th, 2016 DanielAlexander
It would appear that Sony has dealt a damaging blow to its Playstation 4. By refusing to allow mods for either Fallout 4 or Skyrim the gaming giant has effectively alienated a segment of its market. Whether this choice effects console sales has yet to be seen. However, with this happening in the midst of a mid generation […]

Fast Launcher Android ZTE ZMAX 2 Android Phone
August 21st, 2016 Carl Williams
Launchers are a dime a dozen in Google Play. For pretty much the length of time I have used the ZTE ZMAX 2 I have used Microsoft’s Arrow Launcher and loved it. It is a simple launcher that puts your most used apps on the home screen and moves them up the screen (or down […]
