Hold on to your butts, because, as of this past Friday, Microsoft’s latest Windows 10 Build 10130 was released to those in the Fast ring update track. Microsoft’s Gabriel Aul mentioned this in regards to current and upcoming quick turnaround updates: “As I mentioned with the last build, from here onward
I’ll be honest, I accidentally figured out how to do this when I literally got frustrated with removing notifications one by one on the Apple Watch. I tapped the screen a bit too hard and viola, an option for dismissing them all magically appeared. Thankfully! Here’s how you too can
It’s getting there… The recently launched Amazon Echo, aka Amazon’s way of trying to become the central, voice-controlled hub in your smart home, is slowly getting support for the major apps and systems that it frankly needs. Yesterday, a big one was just added: Google Calendar. As someone who uses

In response to this burgeoning data crisis, we now have Google Photos: a free app (Web, Android, iOS) which seems to address a couple of
