Ever watch one of those late night jazzercise infomercials? They generally feature a bunch of folks prancing about on screen bedecked in spandex, really getting into the workouts and the music and the whole experience. Out loud you're saying "...Huh" in a derisive sort of way but in your head, deep down, you're wondering--they're all so chipper, aren't they? There must be something I'm missing.

Dash turns dining out into a Seamless experience

11.07.2013 3:31 AM

A night out a bar or restaurant in a city like New York usually ends in frustration--flagging down a server or bartender to get the check or close your tab can take an excruciatingly long time, plus you still have a long train or cab ride ahead of you.

Stealth Inc. finally brings its speedy brand of subterfuge to iOS

Oh man do I love stealth games. There's something a little magical about lurking in the shadows, picking locks or hacking nondescript terminals and spending inordinate amounts of time crawling through tight spaces.

I was embarrassingly late to discover SwiftKey, the beautiful and highly functional keyboard for Android. I swore to myself that never again would I be late to discover the vanguard of Android keyboard apps! keyboard app, which boldly promises that it can improve the virtual typing experience by distilling the QWERTY keyboard down to just four keys.

Hands-on with SportsCenter, ESPN's rebranded mobile app

11.07.2013 3:31 AM

Quick association time: If I say, "sports news," what's the first thing that pops into your head? If you're like everyone I asked (seriously, 10 out of 10, both guys and girls), you answered, "SportsCenter." ESPN's flagship TV show has been around, oh, 34 years now, and airs up to 12 times a day to bring you all the news, scores, and highlights you can shake a hockey stick at.
