Trying to figure out what’s so different about Google+ over Facebook? Well, one of the big features are called Circles and they are pretty cool. Problem is, most people, aren’t quite sure how to use them. Let’s see if we can show you how these groups can be used to your advantage. Highlights Circles can be used to avoid sending messages to everyone when you may only want specific people to see them (talking about a drunken night to friends, might not want to be shared with coworkers or family members etc.) You can also use them to stop people […]

Excited about Google+? Want to force your friends to join so you aren’t talking to no one with your posts? No problem. Here’s how to invite them. I. Before You Invite Them 1. Keep in mind that they MUST have a Gmail account (Google Apps accounts don’t work either, must be @gmail.com) in order to be invited. 2. If they don’t have one, tell them to go to mail.google.com and create an account. II. Invite Them 1. Head to your Google+ home page (you can get there by going to Google.com, logging in at the top right if you aren’t

So I have to say I am slightly impressed with the HTC Flyer / Evo View 4G. Too be honest, what I like about it is really the fact that, thanks to it’s pen, it’s one of the few tablets out there that actually solves something. Most tablets are fun to play with but truthfully there aren’t really too many situations where they solve a need. Tablets kind of just sit somewhere between a phone and a real laptop. I have a larger screen so I can do things a bit more comfortably than on my phone, but it’s not

The Evo 3D seems to have already found a home in England with Vodafone UK now announcing its availability starting next month – the carrier has even readied a video to prove its claim.  The 3D-screened Android smartphone will definitely find a few more adopters in the UK and we should hear about them pretty soon. If you missed out on the spec sheet yesterday, other than its USP – the 4.3-inch glassless 3D display and its dual 5-megapixel cameras – the GSM device is a powerhouse with dual-cored 1.2GHz Snapdragon processor, a gig of RAM and will run on

While you won’t actually get to see the device in the video, there is some sort of “unboxing” going on here, with the guy peeling off the Toshiba Thrive’s feature one after the other, all with cool CGI bouncing off to make the point. If you didn’t know (and if you haven’t watched the video above already), the Thrive is the upcoming tablet from Toshiba that’s bound to make its mark, topnotch features and all.  The device features a 10.1 inch touchscreen display, a 5MP camera (with 2MP slapped on the front for video call/chat) and a plethora of physical

If there is anything that goads somebody to record something, it would include the words, “super confidential” and “put away your cameras” – seems like Nokia’s Stephen Elop missed the class on that one.  Anyways, feast your eyes on what is supposed to be the first ever Windows Phone 7 device, codenamed the “Sea Ray.”  The device does look a tad bit similar to the recently announced N9, but the addition of shutter button on the phone’s side and the dissimilar LED placement next to the 8MP camera should dissuade any assumptions that this is in fact the N9 somehow

There’s nothing like a simple game that is highly addictive, easy to play, and feels like a cross between Super Mario and Sonic the Hedgehog with hint of Batman. The game with which I am referring to is iRunner, a game for Android that has players jumping, sliding, and collecting batteries to gain power ups move on to next or this case planet. Highlights Styling The visuals for the game are great and provide a cartoon Colors look good as well as character designs and levels Buttons are big and easy to press. Performance It loads up pretty quick and

There may come a time where you might want to take screenshots of your Android device’s current screen. Whether it’s to show off an app (your own app even), show a funny text in context, or any other number of reasons, it can sometimes come in handy. Well, normally you’d have to setup the SDK and take screenshots with it, but LG took a cue from the Apple iPhone and decided to add this feature into the handset itself. Curious how? Let’s show you, it’s actually quite simple. I. Take a Screenshot 1. Set the phone on any screen you
