Minecraft Hue Project

Today’s generation of kids is in a prime position to be the recipients of their parent’s obsession with computer technology.

New iPad Patent

It is the middle of March and we still have not heard any rumors of a special event held by Apple. No tech writers have received vague invitations to the California Theater. Frankly, I’m getting antsy.
