Reading Time: 2 minutes In a day of mind-boggling networking and ten-second video downloads, YouTube is the epitome of modern society and culture. Think about it — instant gratification.

Reading Time: < 1 minute Instant messaging and text messaging revolutionized the way we communicate. No longer do we properly punctuate, spell correctly (unless you still use T9) or use grammar. How many times do you text “L8R” to your friends just to save three characters? Hopefully not very often because the meanings of some common acronyms are shifting and […]

Reading Time: 2 minutes Unlike my superficial, trend-obsessed, metrosexual rival, I find that there’s more to a computer than a pretty case. Computers aren’t supposed to be overpriced paperweights as so many Mac users treat them. Don’t believe me? Keep reading.
