Is 5G going to change our world? Here’s what you need to know

What is 5G? For most of us, the terms 4G or LTE (short for Long-Term Evolution) just mean faster mobile data.

Are You An Instagram Husband?

We all love Instagram (we even wrote about it at length) but are we loving Instagram a little too much?

But most are not. “Behind every cute girl on Instagram is a guy like me… and a brick wall.” “We used to eat our food, now we just take pictures of it.” In mock social enterprise/Kickstarter fashion,…

His latest video series, however, are taking things to another level. Titled “4 Rihanna“, the latest video depicts four copies of him singing to some of RiRi’s biggest hits.
