CES 2020: What to expect
[ad_1] Screens of all shapes and sizes It wouldn’t be CES without being surrounded by a plethora of screens, and 2020 looks to be no different.

Tech that defined the decade
[ad_1] Apple iPad When Steve Jobs introduced the iPad to the world in January 2010, many were skeptical. “It’s just a big iPhone,” people said. The name was also mocked, especially in reference to feminine hygiene products. Turns out that people actually liked it because it was a big iPhone; a large touchscreen computer that […]
Smoke app brings the Steam store to your Apple Watch
