Ikea is a pretty fun place to go shopping, even for guys, but that's no reason to turn our noses up at free hot dogs!

"The next iPhone will be out soon..."

Why are they doing it four years early?

Is it.. is it a little dusty in here? I think I must have something in my eye.

As DigDug mentioned, it's not a valid patent, but Giz has no idea how to accurately report on patent-related news.

If Google+ is "work Facebook", does that make Twitter "stupid people with short attention spans Facebook"?

I'll say this for them: at least they cast an actual short person to play a dwarf, instead of using camera tricks like in LOTR.

I wish I didn't live in an area where Time Warner basically has a monopoly on bundled TV and high-speed Internet. (As far as I can figure, TWC is actually the only high-speed ISP where I live.)

Hold on, I thought we were all supposed to spend twice as much money to buy a Mac because they didn't HAVE things like "troublesome applications".

@Bramsey89: Too soon?
