How Did We Get to Where We Are Now with Online Privacy?

Jul 25, 8:40PM
When was the last time you read Shakespeare for pleasure? I'm sure a few of you can truthfully answer that it was last night or maybe just last week. But I'd dare wager that for most American adults (myself included) it was some high school English class. William Shakespeare's popularity has endured over four centuries.

Jul 25, 7:58PM
Peanut butter, Nutella, salsa, you name it—if it's a condiment and moderately delicious, there's a good chance you'll be lapping it up out of a jar. Still, reliable and resealable though they may be, there's also a dark side to America's favorite container: how to get the last bits of goodness out while keeping your hands clean in the process. Jar-with-a-Twist solves that sticky little problem with a patented, twistable jar that (supposedly) makes every spoonful feel just like the first.

Jul 25, 7:00PM
Eneloops are by far the best rechargeable batteries on the market, and they've become somewhat of a running joke around here because they never stay on sale long enough for the post to go up.
