Juice Fills The Cup

Ugh...school starts today...School starting = Writing up blog posts the night before, just as this one was. But now that that solemn note is over, on with the goods!

• Rrrrroll-Up The....Screen?

This new e-reader starts out very small (100mmx60mmx20mm to be exact) but then can expand to a fairly decent size for all of your e-reading needs. The cool thing about it is the fact that the screen bends and rolls up inside the device so that you don't have the bulkiness of the full screen to try and shove into your pocket.

• The Math Behind iTunes Shuffle Features

If you still feel the need to stay on IE I suggest, no I tell you to get this plugin, if not for the tabbed browsing and integrated search, then at least for the advanced security.
