Touchscreen surface in your printed books? Studying time will be a breeze!

Ever had that moment when you’re reading a book and you just want to copy a single sentence or save a picture, wishing for a moment the book resembled your outdated top-of-the-range-last-month power monster? Well so have we! We’ve got some inside information on a new prototype technology that can transform your book’s surface into a fully interactive digital experience.

It’s time for something like this to become commercially viable and with the current state of technology as a whole, it’s a shame it’s not already in our homes. I don’t want to give too much away, but think book surface with copy and paste. Mind Blown.

That’s enough from me, you be the judge and check it out for yourself!

Android 4.2 Has All It All, Except December

As an obvious blunder to an otherwise peachy OS update, Google’s latest Android v4.2 (Still Jelly Bean) seems to come with two boast-worthy features, the Photo Sphere Camera and your Gesture keyboard… but alas, in all the excitement, one key feature or should we say month has been overlooked..

Although not evident throughout the OS, the blunder makes its presence known in the People app. The crucial app that stores all important dates for all the months (except December) of the year, so that you don’t have to. Obviously this will an unfortunate loss to anybody whose birthday is in December as well as anyone trying to remember what day Christmas falls, (you’ll have to consult a physical calendar (gasp!), like some kind of animal).

In the meantime, pull out those notepads and be sure to plan your life for the month of December. This might just be the beginning…It can surely be said that an error of this magnitude won’t go overlooked and you can get your sweet behinds an update will be released shortly. Don’t we all just love updates (Christmas is coming early this year folks! Or not at all for those who don’t update).

When big celebrities break up, the world knows almost immediately. Fanboys & girls freak out and the internet becomes a blaze of rumors and future-predictions. But what happens when Will Ferrell finds out?

We won’t spoil the surprise but it’s definitely worth a second, third and perhaps forth watch (with your mates). The result, hilarious.
