I see how you can reach a generational correlation, but I believe it's a age issue that isn't unique to any generation. The younger people want the pop and sparkles. The older people want what they're using to simply work bec

The Google G1 has been my best experience with a phone to date. I loved that keyboard and have been searching for a phone to scratch that itch ever since. There are a few devices that are in the physical button niche still, but from smaller

I don't use much social media, but Snapchats discovery cards are over run with creators using that face. It's excessively abundant in the channels there. It feels like a forced attempt at viral marketing. "Maybe if we act sho

The article does define swatting as a large armed response as opposed to a SWAT team responding, but it's splitting hairs. The guy walked outside to a squad of officers aimed at him. Whether they were SWAT or not seems mostly irrelevan
