Google Predicts What You Are Getting for Christmas
Could you imagine what you'd get for Christmas if your search results determined your present? Yikes!
To get a sense of the hottest gifts likely to sell out this season, we used Google Trends to identify the top trending toys, devices and apparel searches on Google Shopping. Game consoles and tablets continue to be the top gifts trending on Google Shopping, but wearable technology such as the "fitbit" is also on the rise this month. Certain retro toys are making a comeback this season. Thanks to the new movie "Ouija," searches for "Ouija boards" are up 300% since October. And queries for "Barbie Dream House" and "My Little Pony" are up as well compared to last month.

Blu-ray Discs Make Solar Cells More Efficient
Here's a really good use for that Blu-ray version of Maleficent you bought because your significant other forced you to.
Researchers at Northwestern University have hit upon a way to give Blu-ray discs a second chance at usefulness: They make excellent molds for imprinting solar cells with quasi-random nanostructures. Even the ones with terrible movies on them.

To Save Google Glass You Must Kill It
To save Google Glass you must kill it? Hell, I guess all we have to do is wait then because Google is doing a great job killing Glass all by itself.
To be fair, we the media are still paying a certain kind of attention to Glass, much as The National Enquirer pays attention to aging celebrities who may not be long for this world. A recent Reuters piece catalogs the many ways developers are defecting from Glass. To which we say: stick a fork in Glass already, Google. It's done.

Popular Security Suites Open To Attack
This is kinda scary.
Among the consumer products AV-Test checked, only Eset Smart Security 8 marked 100 percent of executables for both DEP and ASLR, although both Avira Antivirus Pro and Norton Security were over 99 percent and eight more products were above 90 percent. Among the eight business endpoint security solutions examined by AV-Test, only Symantec Endpoint Protection was at 100 percent, with G Data AntiVirus Business close behind. Many products have a shockingly low percentage of protected executables, such as Trend Micro OfficeScan's 18.7 percent and eScan IS's 17.5 percent.

Citing a report from Netnames detailing the activities of the world's top cyberlockers, Leahy urges the services to stop doing business with all 'pirate' sites.

Ubisoft Withholding The Crew Review Copies Until Launch Day
I looks like Ubisoft hasn't learned its lesson. The company is withholding review copies of The Crew until the game goes on sale. I don't know what Ubisoft has to hide but the last time they pulled this we ended up with Assassin's Creed: Unity.
For this very reason, The Crew will be available to media to begin their reviews when the game launches on December 2. There will be absolutely no embargo on any type of coverage once the game is available for sale. While we fully anticipate that you might see some reviews immediately at launch – largely built around the preview sessions we facilitated during the past months or the limited content of the closed and open betas – they won't be based on optimal conditions or reflect the finished game.

Corsair Obsidian 250D Review
Head on over to techPowerUP today and check out their review of the Corsair Obsidian 250D. For comparison purposes, you can see our evaluation here.
We have reviewed most of the Obsidian series; that is, with a few exceptions. One such exception is the tiny but capable 250D, the smallest variant in its family of enclosures. This review of the Corsair Obsidian 250D will reveal whether Corsair managed to shrink the size of the chassis by as much as possible without compromising on any of the aspects that make Obsidian enclosures so appealing.
