Since the beginning of the century, personal fitness has been one of the boom industries that have exploded across the globe. You just have to look at the number of old video stores that have succumbed to the fully equipped gym to see that. Since Covid kicked in, it's gone through the roof. However, the fitness phenomena was interrupted when many gyms were forced to close down as the pandemic ripped its way across the world. Unsurprisingly, gym equipment suppliers saw their sales figures going up and up as people set up gyms in their own homes.  More

In a recent interview, Fox TV 'news' host Tucker Carlson was asked whether he ever lied to his viewers. He responded by saying: “I guess I would ask myself, like, I mean I lie if I’m really cornered or something. I lie. I really try not to. I try never to lie on TV. I just don’t – I don’t like lying. I certainly do it, you know, out of weakness or whatever." In an age when 'fake news' has been one of the main go-to phrases, that's a more than worrying statement. Is it any wonder then that our younger people seem to be less engaged with what's going on around ...  More

Chances are, if you want to do something like removing the background from a photograph, you're going to use something like one of the many versions of photoshop. The problem there is that it could cost you hundreds of dollars per year and you'll have a whole lot of features that you will rarely use. The very cheapest version I found when researching was ten bucks per month. So, I'm sure it'll please the many marketers, web designers, photographers, ecommerce sellers and freelancers out there that what we have here is a top of the range online background remover and its absolutely free ...  More

It never ceases to amaze me that we can remember so many of the lyrics from the songs that we've grown up with. It's also quite interesting that we can relate many of those songs that mean so much to us in specific moments in our life. Whether it be our first date, a fantastic holiday memory, that trip to Glastonbury or our first love, music is an emotional and vital part of our lives. So it makes complete sense to bring that musicality into our texting life to illustrate the things that we want to say.  More

The main holdback for many 3D/AR modelers and designers is the fact that there are generally two components needed to create things like applications, prototypes and games. On the one side there's the creatives or designers who come up with the concept in the first place. Then there are the software engineers. They're the ones that bring the designer's vision to fruition. Both sides are needed. Unfortunately, it's rare that you find a designer that is also a software engineer or vice versa and that's where the problems begin. Given the fact that engineers are in short supply around the ...  More

Back in 2016, FlipRSS was created as an aid to content producers around the world to make it easy for them to gather together great content to send automated multi-RSS email campaigns to their subscribers. It has proven to be a godsend for many marketers. Now they've gone one step further by introducing SnipRSS to the collection.  More

Pretty much everyone has a mobile phone these days and we are all on them for a lot of time during the day and night.

It's kinda hard to believe that, considering just how far back computer games go, the runner game is a relatively new phenomenon. The first real endless runner game is generally considered to be a game called Canabalt back in 2009 but you can go back a few years to see its inspiration in a Korean game called Nom. Having said that however, my older gaming friends insist that they used to play something not dissimilar to a runner way back in the 80's. Anyway, now that we're in 2021 there have been a whole heap of runner games and they just keep getting better and better.  More

The relationships that we have with the people around us changes depending on who they are. For example, the things we tell our grandparents aren't necessarily the same things that we would tell our best friends. Likewise, the things we tell our family probably aren't the things that we want our boss at work to know. Yet all could quite easily feature in one of our social media accounts and there are a hell of a lot of them these days. So, how can we ensure an element of privacy between ourselves and those very different people that are part of our daily circle of acquaintances?  More

"I can't believe it was that easy!" Those were the first words that my partner offered up after the birth of our daughter. Yeah, I understand that all births aren't going to be that easy but we had done all our homework, read heaps of great material, been to all the classes and done all the exercises to ensure the best outcome. We had got ourselves into a relaxed and calm state, had the best advice and a great midwife and, amazingly enough, everything went according to plan. For most people, a lot of this advice comes from visits to birth classes but now, in the digital age, there are some ...  More
