Samsung Series 5 Chromebook: First Look

September 23, 2011 By Ritchie

If you’re an 80’s kid like me, then you must have seen the original Ghostbusters movie.

From iPhone to Android…and Back?

August 16, 2011 By Ritchie

Android verses iOS5

Ever since I migrated from my iPhone 4 to a new Samsung Galaxy S II, I’ve been keen to cover my experiences using the Android platform. With iOS 5 due to be released later this year, I thought it would be a great opportunity to see what the competitor smartphone ecosystem had to offer, and […]

Cloud Connected

May 22, 2011 By Ritchie

Last year, I nominated cloud computing as an important topic to monitor, as I can see it becoming more and more relevant to the way we use our online devices.
