I've seen this on a few New Zealand current affairs shows and have never seen any footage of an unassisted outdoor flight. Every time the creators have had media coverage they have insisted on doing it inside and not allowing it to go highe

I'm 19 and from New Zealand. I've never heard anyone my age rave about twitter. There doesn't seem to be any compelling reason to use it when we already have facebook. It is hard to understand why you would want to follow random strangers.

There is a large incentive for google to send traffic to Maholo. The low quality of the pages causes the user to want to exit the page. What do they click on when leaving? the adsense ads! I'm not saying Google are going out of their way to

It really stinks how apple leave out features on purpose in an attempt to take your money again the following year. Another reason not to be an early adopter.

I went camping for two weeks earlier this month and didn't miss the internet at all. The funny thing about internet addiction is that people feel like they will miss out if they don't check their emails, facebook and favorite website 10 tim

I believe that Jason's original plan was to have a true search engine with quality human written pages that people would want to use as their homepage instead of google. However this plan was not successful and Jason has realised the opport

Like most geeks I was underwhelmed after watching the iPad presentation and was disappointed that it uses the iPhone OS and not a lite version of Mac OS. But after reading this article and many others it is clear to me that using the closed
