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.
Few would argue that one of the Mac OS X's major user-facing elements is the Dock. Providing both a home for your most used applications as well as doubling as a way of seeing just which apps are running, the Dock is a bit like Windows' Start Menu on steroids.

Apple's iPhone 4 is pretty much accepted by all to be the best smartphone when it comes to industrial design. Say what you want about Apple's closed ecosystem, iOS and relationship with developers but you can't knock that beautiful handset.
We love Google. Specifically, we love Google search. That's not to say we don't love their Gmail. Or their Google Docs for that matter. It's just that, well, search is what makes the internet merry-go-round work. Before Google we had AltaVista and co, and we all remember how poor that was!
Our iPhones have become the home of our digital lives over the last few years. If you're anything like me, then the chances are you spend more time fiddling around on your iPhone than you do using an actual computer these days. One of the main draws of smartphones is their 'always-on' nature - if you're not sat at home connected to a WiFi network then there's always the 3G signal when you're out and about. The problem is 3G isn't cheap, and with unlimited data plans fast becoming a thing of the past we all need a proper way of monitoring the amount of data we're using, and the measuring built into iOS just won't cut it.
These jailbreak developers just can't stop cranking out Notification Center tweaks can they? The latest in a long line of 3rd-party widgets brings iOS stats to the Notification Center.

Thanks to Wallpaper Changer, your Android's home screen need never get boring again.
Apple's iOS 5 might have stolen the show at the company's WWDC event in San Francisco last week, but the next version of Mac OS X - Lion - also saw a new beta release. According to reports, the latest seed features a new 'Reboot to Safari' feature, akin to Google's Chrome OS laptops.
