So why don’t you have any to help you get the girls? Living in the 21st Century will never seem quite so awesome as when you’re using your tablet or smartphone to line up a little action. Turn it into the ultimate wingman with these killer apps. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201204/108696.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201204/106199.php For most cost-conscious consumers, keeping a car running for as long as possible is a financial issue – it’s typically cheaper to repair a car that’s otherwise in serviceable condition than it is to make payments on a new one. For others, however, it’s a mission. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201204/106199.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/101873.php The makers of an influential US radio show have retracted a programme critical of working conditions in a Chinese factory making Apple devices. This American Life made headlines when a January edition broadcast extracts of performer Mike Daisey's account of a visit to the plant. The Chicago-based producers now say they have learned that Daisey's monologue included fabrications. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/101873.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100667.php If you haven't ordered the new iPad already online and you don't plan to brave the lines likely to form later this week when it goes on sale in stores, don't expect to get your hands on the device anytime soon. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100667.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100548.php As obsessed as we all were a week ago with Apple’s iPad announcement, the global brain space filled with KONY 2012 is of another order of magnitude.Yes, it’s great that social media is buzzing with something about human beings instead of bright, shiny objects. And it’s great to think of the internet as an engine of altruism instead of materialism. But what, really, do we do with these feelings that the video has brought up? http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100548.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100472.php Last week’s sale of the Jacksonville Jaguars thrust soon-to-be new NFL owner Shahid Khan into the spotlight. A low profile private businessman for 30 years at Flex-N-Gate, an international auto supply company, he had rarely appeared in national press and never before was listed among the Forbes 400 Richest Americans or on our list of the world’s billionaires. Khan’s acquisition of the NFL team for $760 million and the strong performance of his company suggest that indeed he may be one of the richest people in America. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100472.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100458.php Six months may not seem a great deal of time in the general business world, but in the Internet space it’s a lifetime as new websites, tools and features are introduced every day that change where and how users get and share information. The rise of Facebook is a great example: The social networking platform that didn’t exist in early 2004 filed paperwork last month to launch what is expected to be one of the largest IPOs in history. To put it in perspective, Ford Motor went public nearly 40 years after it was founded. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100458.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100038.php To my eye, this slammed "new new" Beetle Turbo is the car Volkswagen should have created back when the company introduced the New Beetle. The lowered roofline and the creased sheetmetal make for a much sportier and sleeker appearance compared with the pudgy porker that preceded it. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100038.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100037.php It doesn't seem as if five and a half years have passed since the pink sparkling wine was flowing under a canopy in Paris's La Défense business district. Jacky Ickx was there. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100037.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100036.php Bentley Motors have dominated the ultra luxury automobile market for decades. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/100036.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/99525.php Apple announced a new version of its Apple TV set top box Wednesday at an event in San Francisco where the company is unveiling a new version of its iPad tablet computer. http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/99525.php http://foreign.peacefmonline.com/tech/201203/99377.php For its third incarnation, Apple's iPad is going high-definition.
