Nov. 2 (UPI) -- The
American Red Cross said more than 360
U.S. blood drives were canceled due to
Hurricane Sandy and asked those not
affected by the storm to give blood.
The postponed blood drives this week
represents a loss of as many as 12,000
blood and platelet products, the Red
Cross said.
"People who are eligible, especially in
places not affected by the storm, are
asked to schedule a donation appointment
in the days and weeks to come," the Red
Cross said on its website. "To schedule a
donation time or get more information
about giving blood, people can visit

How cell phone cameras ruin real moments
On a recent episode of Leo Laporte’s podcast This Week in Tech, panelist Dwight Silverman spoke briefly about a concert featuring David Byrne and St. Vincent. Prior to the performance, Byrne told the audience that smartphone photography was encouraged, but that they should put down their iPads.
As anyone who has ever seen a 10-inch screen held aloft in a concert can attest, iPads can be a severe distraction, making Byrne prescient as ever. However, I don’t think he goes far enough. As great as ubiquitous camera access is, we might all be better off if we used our camera phones less often....
Apple’s Phil Schiller on the State of the Mac
With Tuesday’s unveiling of the iPad Mini and a fourth-generation full-sized iPad, this has been a major week for the iPad. On Friday, Windows 8 goes on sale — making it an even bigger week for Windows PCs.
But this newsiest of tech news weeks also turns out to be a reasonably significant one for the Mac. Much of Apple’s Tuesday event was devoted to new models, including a substantial overhaul of the 13″ MacBook Pro with a Retina display, two absurdly thin new iMacs and an updated Mac Mini.
The profusion of new models was good news for Mac fans who have been known to fret that the Mac is...

Wolverton: Microsoft's Surface tablet no iPad, but better than other rivals
I found a lot to like about Microsoft's new Surface tablet.
It's generally a pleasure to use. It has innovative features. And it appears to be well-built. For Microsoft's first effort at designing a mass-market computing device, it's a remarkable achievement, and it rates at or very near the top of the 10-inch tablets that compete with Apple's (AAPL) iPad. It's also a much easier device to understand and use than rival tablets based on Android, and unlike those tablets, it runs Office.
But as might be expected of a first-generation gadget, it also has numerous shortcomings, and because of those,...

I'm not saying one relationship towards money is better or more accurate than another. That's entirely up to you to choose. But make sure...

How to Protect Your Smartphone From Viruses
All smartphone owners should be aware of and concerned about viruses that affect smartphones, but most aren't. Only 4 percent of mobile phones use virus protection software, according to Juniper Network Global Threat Center's Malicious Mobile Threats Report 2010/2011. Personal and identity information such as financial passwords and contact lists -- once stored on protected personal computers -- now appear on unprotected smartphones. Phones infected with malware, Trojan horses and other viruses leave your phone unusable, send the virus to your contacts or worse: Perpetrators steal usernames...
The Age of Facebook, Politics and Broken Friendships
In these last few weeks leading up to the election, the nastiest debates aren't between the candidates, but instead between people who call themselves "friends" on Facebook and Twitter.
The Age of Facebook, Politics and Broken Friendships
With the presidential election on the horizon, you've probably seen your share of Facebook political arguments and sloganeering lately. After a few too many barbs, taunts and arguments, you may have even unfriended or hidden some particularly contentious Facebook friends, because you're sick of the bickering and name-calling.
The good news: the election...
Your Tablet PC
The Tablet Pc was developed due to the success of the Laptop. A Laptop is a portable computer which allows you to sit behind a computer screen anywhere you want? The convenience and the portability of the Laptop were the two major key factors to its success. Computer manufacturers are always thinking about new ways to make a computer even more practical than the Laptop, and that is how the Tablet PC is born.
The Tablet is a computer which you can hold with only one hand and use at any place or any time.
Even though a Tablet is more practical than a Laptop, it had to compensate on some of...
Microsoft's next big job: luring users to Windows 8
The moment Microsoft has been building toward for years has finally arrived: the launch of Windows 8, the radical overhaul of the company's flagship operating system and its great shining hope for the rapidly expanding mobile market.
Now comes the really hard part: getting people and businesses to buy it.
Windows 8 became available for sale via download, on software discs and on new Windows 8 devices starting at 12:01 a.m. Friday.
Microsoft's challenge is not only to convince longtime Windows users they should use an operating system with an interface very different from what they're...

Galaxy S4 due in February 2013
With the Samsung Galaxy S3 but four months old, rumours have already started to do the rounds about a sequel to the South Korean phone-maker’s flagship Android kit.
Citing unnamed supply chain sources, as well as what we’re guessing are some better informed sorts within Samsung, the Korea Times claims that the phone will land in February at the Mobile World Congress.
The handset is apparently set to hit retailers shortly after in March – just nine months after the release of its predecessor.
In news that’s unlikely to surprise anyone on nodding terms with prevailing trends in smartphone...
