Greetings from the Pacific NW ; LinuxFest NW

There are two parades tomorrow, the Rose Bowl Parade and the New Year's Day Parade out of London.

Weekend is always interesting for sports fans and this Saturday will definitely not disappoint you.

hi, since MS's Weather app can pin live tiles to the menue i am wondering if this is just the live tile of the auto added city i am in or if this live tile is the automated GPS city. So example i am in London see london top in the app. Pin it to Start go to Glasgow and the live tile shows Glasgow weather. Or is it just the city i added. Simply adding the weather app does not work

Men’s Health magazine lists the “20 Worst Drinks in America.” Just reading about them will probably add a bunch of calories to your diet, along with a ton of fat and a load of sugar.  

I am curious to know what others think of the quality of Sky Go on the Nexus 7. The on demand programmes seem to be fine, with a good picture quality, but the live programmes, especially Sky Sports, do not seem to have a great picture in comparison.

Good morning, Internet! We’re live from Facebook Headquarters in Menlo Park, where the company is expected to finally detail the bordering-on-mythical Facebook Phone. Will it be just one phone? Will it be software to turn many Android phones into the Facebook Phone?

Join us live at the 2013 PlayStation Meeting where Sony will hopefully unveil what’s next for their iconic gaming console. The event runs from 6pm Eastern/3pm Pacific and I’ll be posting images and commentary in our liveblog below. You can also watch it live right here thanks to Ustream.

Hope everyone has a great new year's eve.

One of the things that’s frustrating about Apple’s Maps is that you don’t get the integrated transit information that’s the lifeblood of living in a place like New York City or San Francisco. Google Maps has always had that information integrated into the product, which is a huge help for people who live in those metropolitan areas.
