Kudos to EA for making Command and Conquer: Red Alert available as a free download, in preparation for the release of Red Alert 3—and in celebration of the RTS franchise’s 13th anniversary.

Leviton’s ability to cram three wall sockets into the same space for two inspires more “now why didn’t I think of that?” moments. That’s what makes the Triplex outlet amazing.

Quite simple really: if you’re a Comcast customer, don’t use up more than 250GB of bandwidth every month. The publicly-stated “new monthly data usage threshold” will take effect on October 1. Why 250GB?

Here’s some family-friendly tech that doesn’t come off as boring. Kudos to Verizon for finding a natural way to advertise their FiOS service—even if they sneaked in the hard-sell from time to time.
The concept is simple: hook up a computer to the internet. Hook up lots of monitors to said computer. Set-up Windows to display […]

Right up the trying-to-be-cool-to-be-relevant alley (much like Guitar Praise), Dance Praise puts a Christian spin on Dance Dance Revolution.
