This is especially true in case of popular brands. If you’re someone who loves NatGeo but don’t want to inundate your feed with their photos (they post several times every day) then it makes sense to not follow them and instead visit their profile once in a day (or a week) to browse through their recent posts....

I’m also running Windows 7 using Virtualbox and end up using both the platforms but most of my time is spent on the OS X Lion and I have to say that it’s been a new and enriching experience. But Mac OS X Lion, like any new version of a product, brought along its own annoyances. One of the primary ones being the lack of click-and-drag feature. You know how you double-click on an icon or a piece of text and then hold and drag the second click to move that icon or text to new position?...

A lot of people on the internet have tried to explain Bitcoin and while the general public has some idea of what it’s, they’re still not sure if/why they should be using it....

Well, that’s the basic idea behind Li-Fi. Let’s explore this in some detail. An Accident Started Wi-Fi Not many have heard of the name Dr. John O’ Sullivan, but this Aussie scientist was experimenting on a technology to detect exploding mini black holes in the 80’s. Not much came of it, but in the early 90’s a failed experiment lead to the early formative years of Wi-Fi. It was certainly amazing at that time, but we’ve seen how quickly technology has moved....

Peach has been getting a decent amount of press lately for potentially being the new Twitter. It’s a free, lightweight app for iOS and Android that essentially just wants you to share whatever is on your mind. You can add photos and animated GIFs too, but Peach still takes a very different approach from Twitter. So lets check out Peach and what sets it apart from the veteran social networks below....

The cache contains HTML files, Java scripts, CSS stylesheets and multimedia content like images and icons from a website. Whenever you revisit the website which has been cached by the browser, only the updated files are reloaded while the cached files are served as they were saved.
