It's probably safe to say that the majority of you have been gadget collectors for as long as you can remember.

If asked which operating systems were most popular, most of you would list the usual: Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux/Unix. Come the second half of 2010, to that list we will be able to add the Google Chrome Operating System which will be both open source and lightweight.
Working in a school, a private school for that matter, I've come to realize that there are always going to be fundraisers. Schools need money, and fundraisers help them with this.
Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) kicked off yesterday and missing from the event, of course, was Steve Jobs. In his place was Phil Schiller to give the keynote filled with some major announcements. While Schiller did a decent job, he is certainly no Steve Jobs.
"Switching operating systems is just like moving to a new city. If you've moved, you know there's some fun and excitement to exploring new places but there's some discomfort because it is unfamiliar and it might take you longer to get to where you need to go or you might get lost on occasion.
Do you remember when Twitter was a word that only the tech-savvy crowd might have heard of? It was back in March of 2007 that I finally started paying attention to what Twitter was, only because there was so much buzz about it on the blogs I was reading. Between then and now, Twitter has experienced all kinds of growing pains, including outages from traffic overload.
When it comes to portable media players like Microsoft's Zune or Apple's iPod, we always find ourselves asking, "What could they possibly do next?" In Microsoft's case, the next "big thing" is possibly HD. Engadget recently posted some images from an apparent marketing campaign. One of the images clearly includes the new ZuneHD logo, and another gives us a glimpse at what the device looks like.
Back in October of 2007, we took a look at the Most Popular Cameras on Flickr. It's been well over a year, and a lot happens in a year's time, so we thought we'd take a look at the current most popular cameras on Flickr. This list gives some interesting insight as to which cameras are popular, at least among the Flickr crowd of photographers.
Over the last few months, Ryan and I found ourselves consumed with the process of buying our first home. Home-buying can be a daunting experience, there's no doubt about that, but it becomes a little less daunting with the help of the Internet.
Do you ever stop for a moment to think about how amazing it is that technology has advanced as far as it has? I mean, it wasn't that long ago that a cell phone was something that only few were able to take advantage of.
It's definitely about time that we post a new poll. For our last poll, we asked you to tell us about your monitor(s). A monitor is one of those essential things that we as computer users couldn't live without. We'll get into the results of what kinds of monitors you guys are using, but first we'll introduce our new poll.
It sounds almost surreal to actually happen, but many Zune owners are waking up this morning to find that their 30 GB Zunes aren't working. Upon first reading the headline over at Gizmodo, we were thinking that it was just a few isolated cases, but after further investigation, it's happening to many, many people.
For this installment of the 2008 CyberNet Awards, we are taking a look at some of the Biggest Tech Stories of 2008 . A lot has gone on this year in the Tech World, that's for sure, but some stories created far more buzz than others.
It's Christmas and we just wanted to take a minute to tell those of you celebrating it, to have a wonderful day! We're going to assume that many of you were given electronic gadgets and other goodies as gifts, so feel free to tell us what you got. This year Santa brought us a Canon Rebel XSi camera, and so far it seems to be a pretty nice camera!
Recently I have become more aware of people around me who are struggling to transition into the digital age. For example, I was recently introduced to someone who uses email to communicate, only because they have to for work. If it were up to them, they wouldn't use it at all.
