Sending Secret Encrypted Text Messages on Your iPhone Just Got Easier

One thing your iPhone could be better at: sending secret encrypted messages (aka for sexting and/or illicit relationships). The regular messages app leaves everything hanging out in the open!

There Is an Even Smaller, More Powerful Apple TV Incoming

According to a FCC filing, Apple has a smaller Apple TV in the works. What's weird is that it's not that much smaller than the current Apple TV — the small version would be 93.78 square millimetres as opposed to the current version's 98 square mm. It's even a little more powerful too. Read More >>

If Google Translate Could Translate Star Wars to English

One of the wonderful things about Star Wars was that even though you couldn't understand some characters, you still understood them.

Every House Should Have a Secret Hidden Exterior Door

There's something about secret doors that makes my spine tingle. The excitement! The mystery! But most secret doors are on the inside of a house—pull that book to reveal a hidden chamber! push that wall through!—this one, amazingly, is on the outside. It's so good you don't even see it.

Scientists Are Making a Vaccine for Alcoholism That Will Give You Terrible Hangovers

These Gummy Bears Are Actually a Painting

If you think you can eat these gummy bears, you'd be wrong. They're not real. As in they're not actually gummy bears. Instead, the gummy deliciousness is actually an extremely photorealistic painting made by Jeanne Vadeboncoeur. So good. Read More >>

Are You Getting Less Spam Mail?

The Economist has a chart from Kaspersky Lab, a security firm, that shows that spam mail is on a decline.

Here’s Everything Wrong with Avatar

Do you remember watching Avatar? It was a pretty long time ago! And though it looked amazing in 3D IMAX (and not so amazing on sad old DVD) there were definitely things wrong with the movie.
