   I can't remember any potential customers ever being super excited about 3D TV. Manufacturers lauded them and the media also to an extent but normal people didn't really care. It was just a "nice to have" feature that peo

   I like the article, but one thing caught my eye there. "Right then and there, I said loud, confidently, and clearly so everyone in the room could hear me, “I DON’T UNDERSTAND.”" I don't understand why this would make people m

   In several European countries there are mandatory yearly checks for (old) cars and if your car doesn't pass you are not allowed to drive it until it's fixed. It would be interesting to see if the lack of checks in the US actually

    Interesting. I have a complete opposite experience. I see a lot of disturbing stuff on Facebook but virtually none on Twitter. I guess it just depends on who you follow on these social medias.

    It's interesting that Nintendo shot this down but later ok'd crappy games like Mario is Missing on the PC. This looks like it could have been a lot of fun with a little polish.
