"Fair enough, but since $100 converts to about £85 after taxes etc over here, I can't see why they wouldn't tap on £15 to make it even." More »

This past year he went under the most extensive face transplant ever and now after much recovery, his face is brand new. Read More >
Design permeates all aspects of our daily lives, and while most concentrate on high design -- that which makes things pretty, work well, and look awesome -- some design is purely functional, even if it looks sleek and sexy on the surface. Design in science is just like that. Read More >
Last night, Google sent out a mysteriously cute invitation about an Android event happening on October 29th in New York. All the invitation says is 'the playground is open'. What does that mean? Read More >
Apparently all the trouble that O2's been having recently with network outages, with the last issue raising its ugly head just last week, have been down to Ericsson. Its recently installed Ericsson-provided Centralised User Database keeps cocking up, and it'll take £10 million to replace. Read More >

Researchers at Stanford claim they've figured out how to erase the traumatic memories of mice while they sleep bringing them one step closer to their goal of ending PTSD for humans.
