These old AT&T commercials were a pretty good glimpse of today's tech Posted: 21 Apr 2013 02:31 PM PDT What was science fiction in 1993 has turned into just science in 2013 Long before you did all these things with that tiny device you're holding in your hands, AT&T commercials from the early 1990s told the future. Navigation, PayPass systems, video conferencing and more have all turned from twentieth-century fantasy into twenty-first century reality. Or maybe Elias is right, and Tom Selleck is a Timelord. Either way they're worth a look. Via: +Elias Lugo

Flip Frenzy: A unique new puzzle game Posted: 21 Apr 2013 01:07 PM PDT A puzzle game with an original concept, but what about those in-app purchases? We've seen plenty of games that just build off of other proven puzzle concepts, but they often end up being lackluster because you feel they could have been more original. Flip Frenzy is a breath of fresh air -- a nicely original game for Android devices that's challenging as well. On top of quality game mechanics, developer Funky Squid Games has put together fun and light hearted graphics and sounds to go along with it. Like so many games today though, you don't get far in the game before the in-app purchases set in. Are the pay-to-play mechanics enough to turn you away from an otherwise enjoyable title? Read along with us after the break and see how it all breaks down. read more

From the Editor's Desk: Big things ahead Posted: 21 Apr 2013 10:12 AM PDT Exciting things are afoot, folks. I'm mostly going off the grid this week, insofar as the usual work week is concerned, but that's not to say there's nothing going on. So here's to a fun, fast and fruitful week in New York City, with some of the smartest people I know. And now, a few thoughts on the week that was: read more

Remove duplicate and empty Google+ photo albums in your Gallery Posted: 21 Apr 2013 07:33 AM PDT It's a work-around, but there is a way to delete those pesky empty Google+ albums from your Gallery Has your Gallery gone haywire with blank and duplicate Google+ albums? Don't worry, you're not alone. Since the implementation of Google+ Instant Upload and its deep integration into the included Gallery app, more and more of the photos you see on your device aren't actually... on your device. This all works great until there's an issue -- and what many people have been experiencing is duplicate, blank, and mislabeled albums showing up in their Gallery. The problem is there's no way from the Gallery to manage these photos, it has to be done on the web. If you've been having issues with weird albums showing up in your Gallery, hang tight after the break and see if we can do something about that. read more

HTC One pictured in black on AT&T site Posted: 20 Apr 2013 09:48 PM PDT No details or announcement, but the black HTC One has appeared on AT&T's website We know the black version of the HTC One was coming to AT&T eventually, but tonight we're seeing it on their website. There was no availability announcement, no details on the page and it's not available to buy just yet, but it is there.
