There are some things everybody remembers. Their first girlfriend, their first car, their first kiss and of course, and of course, their first computer.

“Can you also make phonecalls with it ?” The half snickering question hovers in the air, the person who asked it looks at me expectantly, although he already knows the answer. “No” I answer. Before I get a chance to explain he holds the device up to his ear, its over-sided dimensions making it…
This week we launched our brand new hashtag on twitter : #dearknightwise, that people can use to ask cross platform question.

But these locations are DATA. Random, useless data that…

We start of the day with a little Youtube video that oozes nostalgia. How about trying to upgrade through every version of Windows ever made, and see if you (and your operating system) survives.

As dawn slides its silken blue cloack over the star dottet expanse of night, I rise from the slumber of my dreams. Trudding down for the morning coffee, I absently reach for one of my digital companions as I yawn and stretch to greet the new day. While our puppy pops outside to answer natures call, I stand in…
