They have what’s called calling cards, which are half the size of traditional business cards. One side displays your personal details, the other a picture of your choice – you can either upload your own or… [Read more…]

Back in the old days, I lived with my younger brother and we only had one computer in the household. It was a daily battle. Not because we had to compete for it – my brother was always willing to give it up if I needed to use it – but because I would find… [Read more…]

I’ve recently revived that habit and feel that my life is a little bit richer since (sounds lame, I know). Inevitably, I’m starting to have a pile of magazines… [Read more…]

As a child, I used to spend hours playing Super Mario Bros with my little brother on the nintendo. As an adult, I have just been exposed to the most intriguing use of the machine.
