March 7, 2010 – 7:54 pm | No Comment

[Image via The Stub ] If you’ve been avidly following the Hollywood scuttlebutt this past week, you’ve probably heard of an event which is unfolding at this very moment: The 82nd Annual Academy Awards. We know how badly you guys want to be able to talk about the Oscars whilst chatting over your place of business’ water cooler, coffee pot or rodeo clown make-up station, so we’re here to help you understand the Awards ceremony in terms you’ll find easily understandable: The Oscars are the Spike TV Video Game Awards, but for movies. The similarities between the two events really are pretty striking — the awkward presentation by the cast of the Jersey Shore and Mike Tyson will surely be paralleled by the Oscars’ pairing of Young Starlet A and Lecherous Old Comedian B. While the VGAs have scantily-clad, off-season Victoria’s Secret models hand out their awards, the Oscars assign that task to off-season actors , who spend a majority of their on-stage time wondering whether or not this will be the closest they’ll ever come to holding…

Magic Trackpad Trademark Filed By Apple
March 1, 2010 – 11:39 am | No Comment
Magic Trackpad Trademark Filed By Apple Apple seems to be up to something new after they curiously filed for a Magic Trackpad trademark. Nothing much has been shared on this new trademark though you may want to link it to the multi-touch trackpad gadget for MACS back in October.

TUAW Fact Check: Apple using underage labor? No. When a lot of people get their news electronically, skimming over headlines through news aggregators, RSS feeds, and retweets on Twitter, sometimes the majority of information people will get from an article comes from the headline. When a headline leans towards the sensational side, or doesn't accurately reflect the information that's actually contained in the article, it's easy for poorly-represented news to spread like wildfire. This article from the UK's The Daily Telegraph, regarding Apple's self-initiated audit of ...
New iPhone/iPad SDK hints at front facing camera
February 23, 2010 – 11:03 pm | No Comment
New iPhone/iPad SDK hints at front facing camera One of the biggest gripes users have about the iPhone and iPad is the fact that it has no front facing camera. If they were to have a front facing camera it would allow users to video chat, making the devices much more highly sought after. Well, the latest iPhone/iPad SDK has just hit and it actually hints not only at a front facing camera, but also at a camera flash. My guess is that ...
Square Enix files European trademark for ‘Voice Fantasy’
February 22, 2010 – 10:31 pm | No Comment
Square Enix files European trademark for ‘Voice Fantasy’ Square Enix has filed a European trademark for something called "Voice Fantasy" -- a trademark which, as Siliconera was quick to point out, applies to computer or video game software and not sound recordings. That completely ruins our first guess that it was some kind of a cappella Final Fantasy album. Our next guess (and that's all we have, considering we have no information to go on other than the title) is that this ...

New Google Mobile App adds Voice Search support for iPod Google has submitted a new version of its Google Mobile App for the iPhone platform ( iTunes link ), and the fresh app now finally boasts built-in support for Voice Search on iPod touch devices (2G or newer). Update: we have 3 commenters saying there still is no Voice Search on their iPod touch devices to be found, even after updating. We’re looking into it. Version 0.4.5.3281 also brings improved stability when using Voice Search on ‘restrictive networks’ and is also said to make Search by Voice ...

We've seen robberies at Apple Stores before, we've seen kids rapping and we've even seen death threats, but I don't know that I've ever heard of a wedding in an Apple Store. That's what newlyweds Ya Ting Li and Joshua Li decided to do at midnight in the Fifth Avenue Apple Store on Valentine's Day -- right there among the iMacs and Macbooks, they got their wedding officiated by a turtlenecked Steve Jobs stand-in. The ...
