Never mind that social networking sites generally suck and have layouts and profile pages that are even worse.

Google launched Picasa Web Albums this morning. An invite-only service for the time being, it is basically a photo sharing site on par with Flickr, minus all the social networking, tagging, etc.
I will say that I haven’t had any reason to use Picasa. All of my photos are stored on my MacBookPro, and I use [...]

If you, like me, use Firefox on more than one machine and hate having to install extensions back and forth between them, then this is the right extension for you.
FEBE backs up your extensions, themes, and (optionally) your bookmarks, preferences and cookies.

There is a risk of spoilers, but I’ll try to be vague around the important parts. Never-the-less, if you don’t want ANYthing ruined, don’t read it.
52 Week Six: A decent issue, though I found the cast of Chinese super “heroes” to be too racially stereotypical for their own good. Still, it served to [...]

The next edition of Skype, version 2.5, apparently will allow you to send or request money via Paypal directly inside the Skype software. This is not much of a surprise since eBay, Paypal and Skype are all family.

Best Toyline Ever?

This line takes the character designs of the original Generation 1 Transformers and [...]

The fellas over at IGN have posted the Official Trailer for Ultimate Avengers 2. The animation looks on par with the last installment, and now that the recruitment-drive is out of the way, this one will have a better focus on story.

Beta, that is.
