Top Gun has withstood the test of time, and despite having released in the 1980's, is still revered is a classic movie. It took a relatively little-known actor in Tom Cruise and helped make him the household name he is today, entertaining millions along the way. Now, Top Gun is set for a dramatic return to the Big Screen for six days only, but this is no ordinary re-run, since the classic theatrical will burst from obscurity in three wondrous dimensions.
For the last few months, gamers and tech enthusiasts alike have been eagerly expecting announcements from both Microsoft and Sony regarding their next-generation consoles. Following months of speculation and some hints at last week’s Consumer Electronics Show, an analyst is predicting the price and hardware specifications of both the next-generation Xbox and the PlayStation 4.
Our smartphones play such an important role in our day-to-day lives that it is extremely easy to think of them as a digital companion that is there for us whenever we need them. Having that reliance on technology brings with it a set of pros and cons, but just like any real-world companion it isn't feasible to expect that we can have access to our phones 24 hours a day to accept and reply to incoming messages. The developer of SMS Replier has obviously given that issue some thought and has developed his own solution for Android owners.
The standalone Facebook Messenger app has proved to be an extremely worthwhile addition to the company's ever growing range of mobile apps. Although it has already achieved enviable success through download and user adoption rates, it seems that Facebook is intending to build on the Messenger platform by announcing a native iPad version of the app, a first official glimpse of which could potentially be seen during their planned event tomorrow.
The gaming industry is one of the largest ones out there, and no, I am not talking about the casino one. The one I’m referring to are the computer games that you and I have grown up with and developed a liking for, so strong that it, at times, borders on obsession. Computer games have redefined what powerful hardware and graphics could be used for and can achieve, and rightly so, because the level of detail that today’s popular titles deliver is as close to motion picture as you might imagine. Couple that with immersive storylines and realistic gameplay, and you may find yourself hooked to the screen for hours upon hours.
There are certain changes in Windows 8 that are far better than any other previous Windows version. With any operating system, or any other device that stores your personal data, the most important thing that users are concerned about is data security. You need to protect data from malware, external attacks, hard drive crashes, corruption and what not. While there are a lot of tools out there that help you achieve all that, nothing beats the usefulness and importance of taking backups of all the important files that you have.
I genuinely think the iPhone 5 is one of the most beautiful smartphones I've ever owned, so I certainly don't want to lock that design behind a chunky case where it can't be seen. With that said, a case that is not only designed to protect the device but also improve it in some way is an entirely different story, which is why it's definitely worthwhile taking a look at uNu and their innovations in the iPhone accessory market.
A few months back, Microsoft announced the Surface, an ultra-mobile laptop/tablet hybrid running Windows, taking advantage of Windows 8 and Windows RT’s new touch-screen user-interface. Since then, many have been hoping for a Surface smartphone: while no announcements have been made, several artists have created concepts depicting what they expect a Surface Phone to look like.
Getting through the day-to-day perils of life can sometimes prove difficult without the added burden of having to keep track of financial information and ensuring that we have managed to stay within any daily, weekly or monthly budget that we have set aside. The App Store is full of financial based apps that allow us to track what we are spending in various different ways, but the DailyCost creation could definitely be one of the best available, with the $0.99 potentially proving to be a shrewd investment.
There is a lot of fuss being made in the tablet industry at the moment, centering around the pros and cons of the most well-known tablets on the market and which piece of hardware will reign supreme in the race to be king of the slates. Contenders include the Apple iPad, the Microsoft Surface, the ASUS Nexus 7 and the Nexus 10 manufactured by Samsung. They are all extremely capable options, but look past their feature sets and you will ultimately find that they all have a similar set of issues that affect our user experience. If you happen to have opted for the Microsoft Surface RT tablet, then the discoveries of one individual could go some way to eradicating any touch-screen responsiveness issues you may have been facing.
