It's always a big debate among my movie-going buddies, as I am in the minority in my dislike of 3D. For me, 3D is fine for certain films like Avatar, or more recently, Godzilla, where the action on screen is limited. For big action blockbusters like Avengers or the Star Trek reboots, 3D kills the experience. Just too

Yup, hard "G". All other arguments are invalid. Wilhite didn't invent the English language, he's just spouting off for attention.

My only issues are it's inconsistencies. I have a Droid Maxx, and launching by voice is rock-solid some days, others, it seems to totally ignore me until I repeat "OK, Google Now" 3 times, and still others, it seems anyone in the room saying anything that remotely sounds like Google launches it. Drives me crazy.

'98 to '02? Geez, I've slept since then...

Of course it would be Tagalongs that wouldn't have a direct equivalent. Almost our entire GS cookie orders are Tagalongs, and they disappear quickly.

Who carries that many cards??

I almost panicked until I saw that Alan wrote this. If there ever was an article that Adam Dachis was least qualified to author, this would be it.

Well, it's all the Android phone makers fault because the majority of them have the same issue, and they seem to have little interest in fixing it. My HTC Rezound, my Galaxy Nexus, my wife's NoteII, my best friends Moto X and my co-workers GSIII all have terrible lag when taking photos. The old iPhone 4 I keep around

Good point, but that's why I said "95%", you 5-percenter, you. :)

Completely shocked that Photoshop Elements didn't make the cut. I dumped full Photoshop after CS2 (coincidentally, the same time my student discouts ran out...hmm) and went with an Elements/Lightroom workflow for less than half the cost. Elements contains everything that 95% of photographers would ever need, and then

Handy to know in case the apocalypse drops and the local Walmart and Costco are overrun, but until then, what you said.

If they've done this other times of the year, I haven't noticed. I was assuming it was always following CES, when the new models started shipping.

For the last 2 years, both Adorama and B&H have had the Canon "Super Bundle" in February, consisting of the last generation T-series DSLR, 2 lenses, a bag AND a 13" Canon printer for $900-$1000 with $400 mail-in-rebate. I'm hoping they do it again this coming year, because after 2 years of experimenting with Micro

I'm currently with Verizon, but I can't say they are the worst since I haven't had experience with any other carrier in over 4 years. They do a LOT of things that tick me off, but call quality, signal penetration and data speeds aren't among them. Our 4G is slower than it should be (averages around 18 mbps), but our

Poor Pash. Leaves Lifehacker and gets thrown in Whitson's "What have you done for me lately" list.

Good to know! I've been using CleanMaster for this, never knew it was built in.

Hmmm, especially when those luxury purchases might be Nexus devices being announced in the next 30 days??

I bounce back and forth between a fullscreen Dashclock and a UCCW Circle Clock with Simple Calender Widget below it for my homescreen, both with just one column of apps on the right. Usually it's UCCW/Simple Calender during the week so I can see my appointments, and Dashclock on weekends. Have them both saved as

You've obviously never tried Tasker...makes UCCW look like a kindergarten read.

I second APW. I actually never use Facebook from my phone and just use the APW widget to read my feeds. The Twitter widget is nice too.
