SheBytes and Raspberry Pi have more in common, than meets the eye.

For starters, both of us enjoy cute and petite technology. We both see the power in the small, but powerful.

Secondly, Raspberry Pi’s tag line; “Take a byte!” makes us think that they’re fans of SheBytes themselves.

Either way, the charity, Raspberry Pi has done something astounding. David Braben and the Raspberry Pi team have developed a USB stick, sized computer. If you think you misunderstood that last statement, read it again.

If you like deal hunting, CraigsPro+, is the best app for you and it can be purchased right here, for only $1.99!

Are you the type of person who only buys things when they’re on sale? Do you enjoy frequent hondeling? Do you savor the hunt more than the results?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, (and lets be honest, who doesn’t relish a good bargain?), then you must get CraigsPro +.

Google will acquire Motorola Mobility!  There’s been a huge amount of internet activity surrounding the announcement on Monday. 

Our friends at Engadget did a great post on the breaking news; which we borrowed the above picture from, but I would like to expand on the acquisition further.

“Today’s Video Byte” is going to be a little different. Although it may seem regular, in that it begins with a video clip, this video in particular requires ample explanation and interpretation, so here we go:

Facebook is notorious for having really crappy “Privacy” settings…

There, I said it!

Every once in a while, someone comes up with an idea that allows us to kill a TREMENDOUS amount of time.

When my Dad was a kid, back in the late 60’s and early 70’s (sorry for that Dad), they had comic books and GI JOE’s. Today, for better or worse, we’ve made our way from the “life-like hair” of the GI JOE, and “Captain America’s shield” to FarmVille and Twitter feeds.

But my own time waster of choice is StumbleUpon.

Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Cupcake… Google?  If you’re a techie or a foodie, you’re sure to like this one!

It’s clear that the world’s tech companies have extremely brilliant and wildly creative employees. By creating an open, different and inviting environment, these tech goliaths are able to snag countless beautiful minds.

Much of this originality and individuality goes into the initial brainstorming, research and development of the companies output.

Thankfully though, it always seems that these tech companies get most creative and fun, when the time comes to name their products and services.

Although the video above does a near perfect job of displaying the Word Lens app in action, by the creative Quest Visual, there are a few things I’ve noticed the team still needs to work on:

  • A serious setback is the sole ability to work with English and Spanish
  • It costs a hefty $9.99 for each; the English to Spanish and the Spanish to English “Word Lenses”

Despite that, it’s clearly innovative and what I hope is a precursor of even greater things!

While no baby should come as a surprise… occasionally, life happens!  Here is a simple cartoon example.

You know those things you find on your computer that make you start crying from laughter?
