Yahoo beats Google in internet traffic for the first time.

We talk about the apparent trumping of Google by Yahoo for one day. Yahoo had more traffic than Google? We discuss the possible reasons why this could happen.

Galaxy Gear

Is it that much more convenient to have access to information strapped to your wrist vs having a phone in your pocket. We talk about wearable technology and whether we are interested in using it.

We also talk about:
