iPhone 6 on Release Date Confirmed!


 iPhone 6 on release date this 2014 will lead to explosive sales for Apple as the upcoming double refresh is tipped to spur massive upgrade moves from U.S. and Chinese consumers.



Nikola Cirkovic
More voices were added to the snowballing iPhone 6 discourse, its 2014 release date supposedly gaining more ground as a new render and fresh details defining the hotly-anticipated handset came out.

Even as the tech giant is keeping most of the next iPhone details locked in secrecy, analysts are convinced that two models of the iOS-powered smartphone are scheduled for unboxing - a 4.7-inch build that will replace the 4-inch iPhone 5S and a 5.5-inch edition that is set to tussle with the likes of Galaxy Note 4 and LG G3.
It is precisely the new supersize screens that will lure new and existing Apple fans to any of the two iPhone 6 models, investment firm UBS Securities said in a new research note. Apple will surely witness a blockbuster launch for its 5S sequel, Apple Insider reported UBS as saying. read more

VIDEO: Kids React to Old Apple Computer!


A new video that shows kids reacting to old technology is stirring up memories of clunky monitors and large floppy disks.

The Apple II, which was released in 1977, was the pioneer of desktop computers. The 8-bit Apple computer featured a green and black screen and a floppy disk drive for 3.5-by-5-inch media.

Relative to today's technology, describing the Apple II as simply obsolete or primitive does not do the situation justice. When the computers first hit the marketplace, Apple sold them for about $1,300. Adjusted for inflation, that translates to $5,000 in today's world, and that amount of money would buy you a device with about 32 gigabytes of RAM, or over 67 million times what the Apple II first offered.

This is Mariah Carey Ruling the '90s:



A large number of superstars emerged in the '90s, but maybe none as successful as Mariah Carey. The R&B singer released her self-titled debut album in 1990, and has been killing the game ever since. Just look at her track record. Mariah dropped seven studio albums in a decade's time, each one garnering a multiplatinum plaque. Add 14 No. 1 singles to the picture, and it gets even clearer why Mariah Carey was named Artist of the Decade by Billboard.

Guess who lands as the LAWMA Ambassadorship.


The Wonderkd “OzzyBosco” is on another level! This time, the sensational kid artiste is here for a fantastic reason and it’s a special gift for the children on their day. It is a mind-blowing song by the 7yr old kid OzzyBosco titled "Keep Lagos Clean" the official theme song for the Lagos State Cleanliness Revolution campaign.

In an era where it has become customary for corporate players to use celebrities to drive their brands to consumers, one such organization that has deeply looked inwards for a truly value-adding relationship with a celebrity artiste is LAWMA.

Nigeria Girl Who Escaped Boko Haram: I'm Now Terrified of School


One of the teenagers who escaped from Islamist extremists who abducted more than 200 schoolgirls says the kidnapping was "too terrifying for words," and she is now scared to go back to school.

Sarah Lawan, a 19-year-old science student, told The Associated Press that more of the girls could have escaped but that they were frightened by their captors' threats to shoot them.

She spoke in the local Hausa language in a phone interview from Chibok, her home and the site of the mass abduction in northeast Nigeria.

"I am pained that my other colleagues could not summon the courage to run away with me," Lawan said. "Now I cry each time I come across their parents and see how they weep when they see me."

Analyst: 'Unlikely' Nigeria will meet terrorists' demands

Heartbleed bug: Check which sites have been patched.

The Heartbleed bug is serious. Disclosed less than two days ago, the Heartbleed bug has sent sites and services across the Internet into patch mode.
(According to Cnet)
For an in-depth explanation of what exactly Heartbleed is, and what it does, read this post by our own Stephen Shankland. In essence, the bug potentially exposed your username and password on sites like Facebook, Google, Pinterest, and more.

Heartbleed Bug: The latest Internet threat!


Heartbleed is an Internet threat that was recently revealed to have put the security of many popular websites at risk.
The Heartbleed encryption flaw has left many popular sites like Instagram, Facebook, Google and Yahoo vulnerable. These sites have recommended users change their passwords to protect their accounts.

The Heartbleed Bug is a serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library. This weakness allows stealing the information protected, under normal conditions, by the SSL/TLS encryption used to secure the Internet. SSL/TLS provides communication security and privacy over the Internet for applications such as web, email, instant messaging (IM) and some virtual private networks (VPNs).

Dropcam Cameras Sensors That Can Detect an Intruder in Your Home!



Dropcam, the company that makes WiFi cameras that let you stream live video of your home, is working on a new product that can alert you when a person walks in front of your camera.

Right now, Dropcams can detect motion, but they can’t tell the difference between say, your dog and your three-year-old toddler. This summer, the company will push a software update that can tell the difference. In theory, it’ll help reduce unnecessary alerts that get pushed to your phone. The obvious goal here is to accurately alert you when an intruder enters your home.
