be it the PS3 , PSP or a PS Vita and you live outside of the U.S., you can save substantially by buying your games digitally from the U.S. PlayStation store, since physical copies of them tend to be way more expensive outside of the U.S. Many gamers know this and choose to buy their games digitally, but the problem is that to add funds to your PlayStation store wallet, you have to buy prepaid cards from third parties, which tend to add between 10 to 20 percent to their original cost....

Launched in 2017, this was one of the few speakers that could project sound in all the directions. At the same, it boasts of an unusual lantern-like cylindrical shape and it delivers an excellent audio experience. Both these Bose speakers fall on the premium spectrum. Hence, this brings us to an important question—are there any notable differences between the Boser Soundlink Revolve Plus and the new Portable Smart Speaker? Or is the older Soundlink Revolve Plus still a better choice, provided that it is priced around $50 less than its new counterpart....

Before we proceed, I want to clarify that Google regularly releases Android Security update patches for most smartphones. Those patches safeguard your phones from most nefarious vulnerabilities. However, what if your phone maker is yet to release that update? What if your phone behaves randomly? Well, that’s what we are going to answer in this post today. So, without further ado, let’s get started. What Are Viruses and Should You Be Worried The PC user in you must already know that computers often face virus attacks....

But, after the post was published that day, I decided to give it a shot and found out how useful this tool was. Although Delicious remains my primary bookmarking tool, having your bookmarks synced across all the browsers (I use more than one browser usually) is such a relief. And when a tool so useful stops working, it’s not a great feeling. That’s what happened with Xmarks’ Chrome add-on. It started throwing up weird errors and just refused to sync....

take and edit photos with their iOS devices . Because of this, photo editing apps on the iPhone are some of the most successful ones on the App Store. For some people though, sometimes even the simplest editing options might be too much if all you want to do is add a few captions to your photos and pictures. However, one of the most common mistakes when adding captions to photos is to think that captions are just letters that can be placed anywhere and will achieve their purpose just like that....

Kippt is an entrant that is already dominated by similar read-it-later services like Instapaper and Pocket (Formerly Read It Later). We had Delicious earlier and still have it around. Each service promises to ‘do it better’, and they do give us slightly different flavors of the same thing as they compete for our bookmarks and social shares. So, how differently does this Helsinki based startup do it? Let’s clip some bookmark worthy links and find out....

Unified Remote I’ve done my research on this. I’ve looked over half-baked remote apps. I’ve used application-specific remote apps hoping to have a better experience. I’ve deleted remote apps sorely because they were too ugly or a pain to navigate. Once I scuffed off all the scum, what I was left with was Unified Remote. And today I’ll tell you why you need to start using this app and how it can make your life easier, especially if you work from home or are always around your computer but not necessarily within arm’s reach....

The Fake News Takeover What does fake news have to do with the election, you ask? BuzzFeed shared a chart showing total Facebook engagements for the top 20 election stories from February all the way until Election Day. The data finds that 8.7 million of those engagements from August to November were for fake news stories, while only 7.3 million were from reliable mainstream sources. That’s right — more Facebook users engaged with fake news than real news....

Today we’ll talk about an extension that takes this floating window/picture-in-picture behavior to a whole new level. Panel Tabs is an extension that lets you open web pages in little panels that are docked to the bottom of the screen. Yes, screen. This will even work when you’ve moved away from Chrome to another app. If you’ve used the previous version of the Google Hangouts extension or if you use Hangouts chat in Gmail, you already know what panels look like....

But the situation narrows down dramatically while recording with phones and you are left with no option but to memorize the complicated script. Oh, the horror of it. Worry not, we have a savior lurking in the Play Store. A quick search on Google led me to an app called Selvi – Teleprompter Camera, which has brought the teleprompter concept into the smartphone. Selvi: An Overview Selvi is a delightful combination of having a teleprompter in your smartphone camera....

Google Chrome’s incognito mode provides a way for users to avoid websites tracking their activities, but because Google can not ensure that an extension is tracking you or not, they have been disabled in the incognito mode. However, even in the incognito mode, there are some extensions which might be useful to have. Per se, you might want to have adblocker installed and ready to use even in the incognito mode....

Many sites pointed to use Feedly. So I started using it. After using it for some time my friend suggested me to use a personalized News Reader called Flipboard. I downloaded it and I loved it. I’m STILL using it. But, I believe change is essential to live a happy life. So, I thought let’s get back to Feedly. I logged into Feedly with my Google account and the feeds were the same as before....

If you’re having issues syncing friends’ Facebook photos to their appropriate contact cards, it’s time for a workaround. We have two potential solutions here: one is just a quick fix within the Settings menu and another requires a third-party app to get the job done for you. Re-authenticate Facebook This first step to take is a quick one but you could see success with it. All we’re going to do to re-authenticate your Facebook account with iOS is log out through Settings and then log back in again....

Two companies are really trying to change that with their products. The more prominent of the two, Fracture lets you order prints of your photo directly onto glass. That’s right, the photo is literally printed onto a sheet of glass. You can keep it on a table or hang it up to show it off as an elegant portrait. Woodpost, on the other hand, is an iPhone app that fulfills orders to print photos directly onto — you guessed it — wood....

First, we have fans of stock Android. These folks generally go with a Nexus device, or root and flash their Android tablets and phones to turn them into stock Android-powered devices. Next we have those that like carrier customizations, including UI changes found in skins like HTC Sense or Samsung’s Touchwiz. They buy their devices and leave them alone as far as looks/UI are concerned. There are also users that are indifferent....

While Google Photos is a proper app on iPhone, you will find the iCloud functionality inside the Apple Photos app. There is no separate app known as iCloud Photos. The iCloud is an online storage service offered to Apple users, and iCloud Photos is part of it. Even though Google Photos also saves your images online in the cloud, it doesn’t use iCloud. The Google cloud saves the images. Let’s start the comparison between Google Photos and iCloud....

Messenger has grown to a point now where it has around 900 million users. Over the years, several great features have been added. It may even be the case that there are many features that you are not aware of. For that reason, we will be exploring the various features which Messenger has to offer. What Messenger Has to Offer Did you know that Messenger has its own web client?...

Your Dash buttons are automatically populated with products you order frequently. Click the brand name for information on the specific product that button purchases and click the white button to purchase immediately. There is an argument to be made that finding a Dash button and clicking it isn’t much easier than finding a product and clicking Buy, but that’s up to you to decide. Personally, I don’t use Dash buttons very often because the thought of a one-click purchase still scares me....

The reason iOS 8’s encryption is so beautiful is because it works in the background even if you didn’t expressly enable it. If you have a PIN/passcode lock or Touch ID enabled in iPhone 5s and higher, congratulations, encryption on your iPhone/iPad is already up and running. But what do I mean when I say “beautiful”, a term as arbitrary as Apple’s promotion jargon? What does encryption do and why should you be glad it’s enabled on your device?...

Talking about my carelessness, I downloaded the update file from a file hosting service as a free user using the default browser. I was so excited about flashing the new ROM that I didn’t realize that the download was interrupted in between which caused a failed installation resulting into a bricked ROM. For the rest of the time, while my phone was in the service center, I kept cursing myself for not checking MD5 checksum of the file before installing....
