So, we know that the Echo and Alexa can perform useful and practical tasks…but where’s the fun? In discovering hidden Easter eggs of course. If you’re not familiar with the term, an Easter egg is something that is usually an inside joke or hidden message in movies, video games, and other multimedia. You can also find them on the web, too, such as having Google do a barrel roll or when Microsoft celebrated 8-bit day with a homepage Easter egg....

You can even specify ages on a country-by-country basis....

If you ask Google, the best thing about the new version is its speed. SunSpider benchmarks show a 305 percent improvement in JavaScript rendering time compared to the first version of Chrome. Here’s the chart below. Google Chrome 5 may be fast, but it’s some of the other new features that make it even much more appealing to try out. I think now with version 5 it’s finally ready to start competing with Firefox....

To take advantage of the deal just open the Google Play store on an Android device and it will appear at the top. A new deal will be listed every day until January 1st. It appears that the credit for Hotel Tonight expires after the same day as its deal.

Heck, it even has a voice-activated remote that you can use for search, just like the Fire TV. One thing that does differentiate Nexus Player from the Fire TV is you can play the games on your HDTV at home using the controller, and then keep playing the game where you left off on the go on your smartphone or tablet. I haven’t had a whole lot of time with using it yet, but thought I would at least give you my first impressions....

Nexus 4 Phone First in the line-up is the Nexus 4 Android smartphone. This handset comes from collaboration with the hardware manufacturer LG, despite the fact that Google could have easily manufactured it through it’s self-owned manufacturer Motorola. With a 4.7 inch display the Nexus 4 comes in at roughly the same size as Samsung’s latest Galaxy SIII phone, but is still dwarfed by the the larger Samsung Note II phablet....

No, unlike other file managers you won’t find sophisticated features, one-click sharing and other goodies, but sometimes copy-paste is all you need....

Creating Passwords Made Easy The obvious use of 1Password is to store your passwords, but some users miss out on the password creation function. I’m always stuck coming up with new passwords. I used to use Wolfram Alpha to generate a password, but it’s much easier in 1Password. In the latest version, the program lets you create Diceware passwords. Those are random words like the famous XKCD suggestion of correct-staple-horse-battery. Not only are Diceware passwords more secure, but they are easier to type....
