No Watch Dogs Demo
In general, I am very leery of games that do not have a demo these days. Considering the fact that Watch Dogs missed its huge next-gen console launch due to delays, I am not buying the "demos take time" excuse. What are your thoughts on games without demos?
Answering a question on Twitter, Jonathan Morin tweets that there will be no demo version of Watch Dogs, Ubisoft's upcoming open-world hacking game. He says: "They are no demo planned before release," adding an explanation: "Doing Demos take time, the focus is on the game. You will see more footage before release." Thanks GameSpot.

Limiting Screen Time Is Good For Kids
I wish I knew where to sign up for grants to conduct CO* studies like this. I could make a fortune doing WW*, SB* and FH* studies.
Considering that children average more than 40 hours of screen time a week, not counting time spent on a computer at school, even small changes can make a difference, researchers said. They are not suggesting parents completely eliminate screen time, but find a healthy balance.

Facebook's Latest Design Was So Good It Failed
How can anything be "so good it failed?" Then again, this is Facebook we are talking about, why am I even asking that question?
After an investigation into the problem by Facebook's data team, they discovered that the new News Feed was performing too well. It was performing so well from a design standpoint that users no longer felt the need to browse areas outside of the News Feed as often, so they were spending less time on the site. Unfortunately, this change in user behavior led to fewer advertisement impressions, which led, ultimately, to less revenue.

How To Stop People Tagging You In Twitter Photos
The totally obvious "don't have a Twitter account" answer was somehow overlooked.
Which means that you can tag your photos to include the names of the people who appear in them. Or, if you wanted to, tag your photos with the name of any Twitter users you wished. Which, as the spammers will no doubt soon discover, is a great way to attract people to your site, even if only because they're curious to see who tagged them.

BitFenix Colossus Micro-ATX Case
Need a case that is big in name but small in size? Check out PC Perspectives review of the BitFenix Colossus this afternoon.
Some of the smaller features are among the strongest points of the BitFenix Colossus Micro-ATX case. Attention was paid to details like the magnetic front door closure, the rubber mounts for hard drives, and even the design of the thumbscrews. The lighting system is a nice touch, and the black soft-touch plastic gives the case a unique feel. The build quality is very high overall, so extras like the customizable lighting are icing on the cake.

Still On Windows XP? Here's Some Bad Advice
Just what Windows XP users need...some bad advice!
