Love him or hate him, you can't fail but be impressed at how Mark Zuckerberg has turned Facebook into the juggernaut that it is today.

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.
We're into the second day of my thoughts on where the biggest players in the world of smartphones will take their business during 2012, and today I'm going to share my wisdom on Google.
Without a doubt, 2011 was a big year for the smartphone industry. We had the iPhone 4S, two new Google Nexus Phones and Nokia took to Windows Phone 7 like a duck to a frozen like - it got in there eventually.
Apple's Photo Stream is potentially one of the most useful new features that Apple added to iOS 5 for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. It takes everything that is saved to your Camera Roll, including newly taken photos and images that have been saved and then synchronizes it across iOS devices.
Apple's decision to make Siri an iPhone 4S-only affair caused much consternation amongst iPhone 4 owners as well as those owning an iPad 2.
In a move that came a little out of the blue for us, OnLive has announced that it will be launching a new app for the iPad which will allow users to stream an entire Windows 7 desktop experience to their tablet.
Apple's Magic Trackpad is a loathe it or love it kinda thing. While some just can't live without its free-scrolling, flicking and pointing abilities, some see it as a step down from the traditional mouse. Something that should be consigned to laptops, if you will.
Ultrabooks are something of a new breed, with Apple's MacBook Air their forefather. While we have had netbooks for a few years now, they've historically been underpowered, cheap and not always cheerful machines that were only there to fill a purpose until the tablets came along.
I'm a social kinda guy. I like to share things, sometimes too much in fact. Heck, I told the world I was going to be a father by posting a photo of our first scan yesterday, and it was awesome!
Samsung's instant messaging app, ChatON, is now available for download via Apple's App Store, and it goes straight into competition with Apple's own iMessage.
