You want to be productive. Software wants to help. But even with a glut of tools claiming to make us all into taskmasters, we almost never master our tasks. Back in 2010, Walter Chen and Rodrigo Guzman had a weird idea: a website where you write down the stuff you accomplished that day, and which then emails you a summary. It would be a productivity tool that worked by a neat psychological hack, i
If piles of warm, hot grains are the only thing powering you from one day to the next, check out Zojirushi's 3-cup rice cooker. If you were to poke around Gadget Labbies’ kitchens, you would probably find more than one Zojirushi device—the quiet, undisputed king of rice cookers. The brand uses “fuzzy logic technology” with a microcomputer (hence the abbreviation “micom” in the product name) to mak
Among those involved in David Pokora's so-called Xbox Underground, one would become an informant, one would become a fugitive, and one would end up dead. The trip to Delaware was only supposed to last a day. David Pokora, a bespectacled University of Toronto senior with scraggly blond hair down to his shoulders, needed to travel south to fetch a bumper that he’d bought for his souped-up Volkswage

There’s the consideration of whether the gadget fits into your life right now, at a time when our needs have changed considerably.

With the highly anticipated Animal Crossing: New Horizons and E3 on the horizon, Nintendo has become “increasingly aggressive” combating leaks over the last couple of months. *Pokémon Sword* and *Pokémon Shield* leaks last fall was just one of a series of incidents that may have led Nintendo to up its anti-leaking enforcement.Courtesy of Nintendo At 10:28 pm on November 1, an image of an unknown a
On a bright Monday in January 2017, at 2:30 in the afternoon, about a thousand Google employees—horrified, alarmed, and a little giddy—began pouring out of the company's offices in Mountain View, California. They packed themselves into a cheerful courtyard outside the main campus café, a parklike area dotted with picnic tables and a shade structure that resembles a giant game of pickup sticks. Man
It's hard to escape the gravity of internet giants like Facebook and Google. Not only do they offer an ever-growing number of apps and services that are hard to live without, many other popular websites and applications incorporate code written by these companies.

A growing corner of YouTube seeks to teach people about screenwriting, directing, and cinematography—tuition free. All Michael Tucker wanted was to learn how to be a better writer.
