Google Glass is definitely the hottest topic around at the moment, even if Google didn't say much about the new technology during its Google I/O opening keynote. The internet is abuzz with stories from people who were lucky enough to get their hands, or heads, on one of the Explorer Edition of the product a couple of weeks ago. We seemingly can't get enough of Google's special eyewear, and it's easy to understand why.

Oliver Haslam has written about technology for over a decade. His work has been published in print at Macworld and online pretty much everywhere else. If it plugs in or has a battery, it's fair game.
You can level all kinds of legitimate complaints at Facebook, but not iterating is certainly not one of them. The Facebook web interface is currently undergoing some big changes, with those changes being rolled out to users on a staggered basis. We've not got all of them ourselves, but one that we do have access to is Stickers.
If you read my reasoning for returning to the jailbreak scene with the iPhone 5 jailbreak release back in February, then you'll know that up until that point I really wasn't sold on the whole jailbreak scene. I'd dabbled in the past, with limited success, and always decided to return to Apple's way of thinking by ditching the jailbreak completely. I'd had battery problems, stability issues and a general feeling of disappointment when jailbreaking, but that all changed in February with the release of Evasi0n. Three months later, I can't see myself ever going back to stock.
Folks over at The Joy of Tech is known for creating all kinds of humorous comic strips based on the current tech topics that are on everyone's mind. We're big fans of the series, and everyone loves a good comic strip, right?
It might not be the first accessory you'd think of when kitting out your new iPad, but Bodelin Technologies' new microscope is changing all that whilst making science cool again along the way.
Facebook Chat is one of the most heavily used instant messaging protocols around right now, partly thanks to the fact that just about everyone on the planet seems to have a Facebook account. That, coupled with the fact that there are chat enabled Facebook apps for all the major mobile players means that it's not going to go away any time soon.
A new update to Google Play Store app APK for Android is now available for download, bringing the version number up to 4.1.6, and we have full download and installation details right after the jump.
Instagram just keeps on growing, especially since the buyout by Facebook. It seems everyone us using Instagram to post pictures of their kids, their cats and most importantly, their meals. We're not sure phenomenon really does Instagram justice at this point, but there's one string that is missing from their potent bow. One that just doesn't seem forthcoming.
Mophie, the king of additional power packs and fancy cases with batteries built into them, has announced another new product today, swelling its iPhone lineup.
It may have been conspicuous by its absence at yesterday's keynote, but Google Glass is still the hottest property in personal technology right now. You only have to flick through any social media site and you'll come across someone either wearing Glass, or at the very least, talking about it.
