Transfer files and control your phone wirelessly with AirDroid for Android
20 Jan 2012 by Kevin Schulte
Managing files and data on an Android device can be a chore at times. To move files back and forth you have to keep a micro USB cable handy. Not only that, in order to move files to your phone’s SD card it has to first be unmounted from your phone, which can take a while if you’re still using an ancient phone with limited internal memory (like me) and have tons of applications installe...

Insync integrates with Google Docs to take on Dropbox
04 Jan 2012 by Craig Lloyd / 1 Comment
After well over a year of being in closed beta, Insync has finally released to the public. If you’re not familiar with the service, it closely resembles other cloud-storage services, in that a folder you create is automatically synced to the cloud for backup and/or sharing purposes, but a few minor differences separate it greatly from its competition. First off, Insync uses Google Docs as ...

The Asus Eee Slate with Windows 7: A Tablet Computer on Steroids
28 Dec 2011 by Kevin Ivanca / 2 Comments
I had been lusting for a tablet computer for quite some time. And no, I didn’t want one of those tiny, feature-limited Apple or Android tablets with a 6” screen and far too many smartphone similarities. I wanted the real deal: a 12”- 14” portable computer with full touch capabilities, an absurd amount of RAM and CPU power, and an operating system that can do just about anything. That...

Windows Phone 7 Alert: HTC Connection Settings app is bad for your phone
07 Dec 2011 by Bryant Sombke / 2 Comments
If your Windows Phone has “HTC Connection Settings” installed on it, remove it immediately. If you come across this app in the Marketplace, do not download it. It’s a pointless app that serves no real purpose, anyway, so I doubt anyone would miss it. I know I don’t.

ShiftEdit: A Web-Based IDE for PHP, Python, Ruby and More
29 Nov 2011 by Brian Nelson
If you’re a programmer or developer that juggles several projects at a time, your code can sometimes be lost between multiple workstations, or worse, lost in some sort of catastrophic system failure. If only you’d had a chance to run a backup first! With everything going to the cloud these days, wouldn’t it make sense to have your valuable projects protected in the fluffy white s...

Kindle Fire proves that reviews are meaningless
28 Nov 2011 by Dave Parrack / 3 Comments
If you’re serious about purchasing a new piece of technology, do yourself a favor and try before you buy. Because relying on reviews, especially from just one or two people, is tantamount to gambling your money on one person’s opinion. We’ve all looked at reviews online. We even write them here at Techerator. And they can make for fun reading, and writing. But their worth is up f...

ViewSonic V3D231 3D LED Monitor Review
21 Nov 2011 by Craig Lloyd
ViewSonic has been around for quite a while, making computer monitors and televisions since the early 90s. I even remember sporting my robust 18-inch ViewSonic CRT monitor several years ago that delivered great colors and beautiful contrast. However, are ViewSonic’s current and latest offerings worthy of receiving those same accolades and then some? To find out, I decided to take ViewSonic&#...

Google just announced that Google+ Pages for Businesses are here, finally allowing a flood of brands and celebrities to create yet another social network outlet for interacting with customers and fans.
