The internet is once again abuzz with news and rumors surrounding the replacement to the Xbox 360.

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.
The official Madonna app for iPad is now available for download, giving fans of the songstress unlimited, 24/7 access to everything they could ever want. With music snippets, videos and interviews, the "Madonna" app has a little of something for any self-respecting fan of the woman that launched a thousand copycats.

There's a new Twitter app on the block, and it may be bringing a little spit and polish to the Windows app scene. Twitter may have its own apps across a range of platforms, from Windows Phone 7 to Google Android, but it is on the desktop operating systems that Twitter has struggled to put together a top class application.

We love a good magic show here at Redmond Pie, and if anyone can somehow manage to incorporate some technology into a magic act then we're particularly interested. Magic and technology, a match made in heaven. We have been treated to just that a few times since the iPad arrived, but this might just be the best we've encountered yet.
