My favourite Sleep Aid Android Apps.

I haven’t installed apps in a long time because of the limited internal space I have for apps in my phone. So in order to free up some space, I deleted some apps I wasn’t using. Turns out I had a lot of dead weight! That left a lot of room to look into more…

The importance of saving files.

Have you backed up your important files today? No? Well, you should do that. Twice. That moment when you realise that you forgot to back up a whole year’s worth of raw design files.. and now they are lost forever. #icannot — Deborah (@adoredee) July 10, 2014 My lovely lovely boyfriend built me a computer…

The Android Apps I miss the most.

Even though I don’t hate FireFox OS, its infancy means that it’s missing a few apps that I really enjoy. Most of the apps I use such as Tumblr, Lastpass, WordPress, Facebook, Onenote and Gmail I found were either on my Tablet, my laptop or the mobile websites are adequate. Instagram Social media apps are…

Goodbye Android, hello FirefoxOS.

Well, just temporarily. My lovely Samsung Galaxy Note is dead. It refuses to charge properly, switching off at random times and displays wildly different battery percentages in a five minute time frame. So  it is with a heavy heart that I’ve had to say goodbye to old faithful. In my head I’ve always been a…

Cloud Storage. Flash drives are for nerds.

Being a university student, I’ve found out the hard way that you should never trust any one service to save your data. Now that Microsoft is being sued by BSkyB over the name Skydrive, I thought now would be a great time to talk about the ways I back up my data. Google Drive was…

Font Glasses. A whole new meaning to the word Typeface.

When you spend enough time around anything you begin to have favourites. Even when working in a retail environment, I would have a favourite section, or a favourite wall and it would make me happy when it was looking just right. Typefaces are no different, the more you play around with them the more they…

The Tomorrow People. I keep watching, but I’m not sure why.

Okay, I am sure why, it’s because there’s this over arching theme that I need to freaking know about. Where the balls is Stephen’s Dad? Who are Ultra really? Is that serum really stripping them of their powers? And why the hell is Stephen so strong?! Oh right, spoilers ahead.   The Tomorrow People (even…

Facebook is an abusive lover that is keeping my friends hostage.

Earlier today I shared this link with some friends on Google Hangouts and no-one was even a little bit surprised. Why should they be? We’ve all assumed that this has been happening for years, it’s been leaked by Snowden and now Facebook is just all out admitting to selling their users. I don’t remember where I…

Google Chrome Experiments. What a wonderful oddity.

Google Chrome Experiments is a showcase for creative web experiments, the vast majority of which are built with the latest open technologies, including HTML5, Canvas, SVG, and WebGL. All of them were made and submitted by talented artists and programmers from around the world.   Some of the creations are standard derpy things, nothing really standouty….

The Samsung Galaxy Mega. Bigger is better.

I have the Samsung Galaxy Note, and while some people (haters) have said the phone is way too big, I love it. It’s big enough for me to type with two hands, watch videos without too much eye strain and overall it’s pretty nifty. It is a bit dated now, the Note II is out,…

Google announces ‘Project Loon’.

When I read the announcement I had to check the date to see if it was April 1st. It is not. This is a real thing. Google the internet company wants to bring the internet to everyone. In the promotional videos they are very quick to explain that by everyone, they truly mean everyone in…

BBM is coming to Android and iOS this year, and nobody really cares.

BBM (which stands for Blackberry Messenger) for the unfamiliar was one of the first texting apps (that I remember and used) available that used data. As the name suggests it was exclusive to Blackberry handsets, each phone came with a Pin that you would use as an identifier to allow friends to add you.  …

Do you know your colours?

Do you know your colours? Trying to do this while someone is distracting you on Skype is probably not the smartest thing I did but it was still a pretty neat way to spend some time. Took me a while to realise what I was supposed to do and I’m ashamed to say it took…

When I got the Samsung Galaxy Note I was pretty thrilled, it had everything I needed in the phone and while everyone was debating whether or not the screen size was an issue, to me it was simply perfect. Even when the Galaxy Note II arrived in stores I wasn’t phased, I love my first…

I do have super powers

  Ermagad, I thought these pictures were lost forever due to the unfortunate memory card incident. But it turns out that I in my infinite wisdom decided to back up my memory card.. at some point this year. I can’t exactly pinpoint the moment that I ascended into the realm of the gods and performed this wonderful action, but I’m glad…

I’m really upset.

My phone has been acting pretty buggy, so Orange sent me out a new one. Unfortunately for me, it arrived at the later end of the delivery window, meaning I was in a big rush getting ready for work. -sigh I took out everything but the micro SD card. I’m in bits, I can’t even…

Whoops?

I guess I ran away with the Meet the Pyro hype train (worth it by the way) and I totally missed that Google I/O 2012 was a thing. Someone care to catch me up? I’m in r/android trying to get all the news I can.

Well.

I bought a new phone. The Samsung Galaxy Note. It is phenomenal, that is all.

nebula.

I am addicted to images of nebulas. Space is really freaking cool.

GAME

Game is going under and honestly I’m not surprised. Here & Here explain just how bad it’s become. I used to work in GAME and I think part of the problem is that they don’t actually offer anything else to the gamer besides videogames. They’re a video game store you cry, what else can they offer?! Well…
