The size and spacing of facial features are editable, making creating the perfect avatar quite easy.

In a market established and ruled by the iPad, there were quite a few Android tablets looking to get a slice of the tablet market. Amazon’s Kindle was the first Android based tablet that seemed to gain a significant market share. A strong push was required for Android to dent the iPad domination and Google itself took the responsibility to come up with such a tablet. Nexus 7 is the tablet launched with this goal and

Google has finally pulled the plug on SMS Search, a feature on phones allowing a user to text Google a query and then Google would send back a list of results and answers. This was used regularly back when the iPhone and Android smartphones were not a thing and people used either a "baby Internet" portal on a mobile or a feature phone. Instead of waiting a few minutes for pages to load on 2G connections, the SMS messaging was instant and Google had quick speeds getting

Removing unnecessary files is a great way to recover disk space and performance. With too many temporary files collected, not only is performance degraded but literally GBs of space are oftentimes used. Aside from temporary files, sometimes installed programs just garnish all the available space leaving room only for even larger system restore points to eat away at open space. Follow our quick tips to recover this disk space using freely available tools. We'll be using Windows 7 in these

When hardware begins faltering, and viruses begin seeping through the cracks of our system, we all want to be on top of whatever our computers are doing, and how they are doing it.

It seems like yesterday Firefox 20 was released, and now Firefox 21 is here and this version has a handful of new features. While there are some helpful new features, there's one hiccup users may run into - plugins and extensions not working. This is due to folder location changes and Firefox wanting to create a metro-style browser for Windows 8. However, you can easily get your extensions and plugins working again in Firefox 21. Upgrade to Firefox 21 If you haven't done so yet, get

Broken links aren't something I enjoy finding because it means the file or folder I was accessing has somehow been moved or deleted. Regardless of my preferences toward them, ShortcutsMan helps locate all of them and even has an option to attempt repairs for broken links. Being portable, it can run straight from a USB device or network drive and reports can be generated to list all the shortcuts in a

When two platforms emerge from one company, they will always be similar and people will question the relevance of one against the other, this has happened with Android and Chrome. Many believed Google would start pushing Chrome into Android, with Android becoming the top level platform everything runs on. Chrome OS would make way for Android web-based OS and would offer a seamless experience between phone, tablet and web. However, at Google I/O yesterday, it seems Google wants to make sure both platforms are kept separate. With

Sometimes you just need a really easy way to take notes on the fly, and Google's latest app for the PC, Google Keep, a digital version of sticky notes, is just that: A simple way to capture whatever you want, when you want and this add-on is already available in Chrome. Google Keep debuted last month and it without question strives to fill the gap left when Google Reader was eliminated. And it's on it's way there. Whether you need to jot down a simple

Google has always wanted its users to have a seamless transition from one service to the other. Over the years, Google has redesigned its services and apps to not only look like one another but also to function in similar fashions to make it easy to go from one place to another.
