Perhaps that’s not so surprising —…
This year’s E3 was amazing: dozens of terrific-looking games for fans, press and industry to demo and watch. Yet one really stood above the pack, even if it was a simple tech demo.
Still, most demos don’t let you dogfight in space through the power of virtual reality.
CCP developer Dave Gundry said the team was so excited when they got their Oculus Rift virtual reality headsets that they wanted to make something to test the technologyEVR was created in-house by CCP, best known for its…
As we continue to see more details brought to light in how the government requests and uses information about what we do on the web and on our mobile devices, an ex-Googler and a consumer rights attorney, who have dedicated themselves to helping users remain private, have raised some funding to do this better and in more places.

At Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), the annual gaming conference that took place in Los Angeles earlier this week, the unveiling of Sony’s new PlayStation 4 dominated the gaming news cycle.

The White House released a new broadband report Friday that’s chock full of interesting information about the state of American broadband. A key chart, however, comes on page nine and shows the digital divide is still very, very real:
Approximately 91% of Americans as a whole have “access to wired broadband speeds of at least 10mbps downstream,” the report found. But this chart shows a very different reality if you lack a college degree, if you’re poor, if you’re rural or if you’re hispanic…

A few things that probably come to mind when thinking about hackathons: mobile phones glued to participants’ hands, open laptops resting on tables and, without a doubt, an Internet connection. But none of these things are present aboard British Airways’ UnGrounded Innovation Lab in the Sky, an 11-hour in-air “hackathon.”
Instead, British Airways flight 9120, which flew from San Francisco to London overnight on Wednesday, is filled with 130 members of the tech community, poster boards and…
Hip, hilarious and oh-so-topical, George Takei has one of the most popular and beloved Facebook feeds on the social web. His compassion and humor have helped him smoothly reincarnate himself as a modern Internet sensation after starring as Hikaru Sulu on the 1960s Star Trek TV series
That’s why many of his loyal fans were dismayed to learn last week that their online hero is not, in fact, the clever one-man idea factory he seems to be on Facebook
