Moto G release date, specs and pricing leaked by Amazon.co.uk

Looks like Amazon.co.uk jumped the gun on the upcoming Moto G. Scheduled to be announced this Wednesday Novemeber 13 (stay tuned for our coverage right here), the Moto G is the lower cost variant of the Moto X. According to the Amazon.co.uk leak, it will be released on Novemeber 14th, and it will cost £159.99 off contract for the 16GB black model. Of course this applies to the UK, so we can't tell what the Canadian pricing will be.

Happy 12th birthday iPod!

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

It may no longer be Apple's cash cow or comeback product but there's no denying the importance that the Apple iPod holds in the company's history as well as the music industry at large. The iPod wasn't the first MP3 player, but it was the first one that really made sense. It made digital music consumption portable and cool. It gave birth to iTunes, songs sold as digital singles and it single-handedly challenged piracy by offering a legal way to distribute music digitally (although some would argue that it promoted piracy for people who didn't want to pay for music).

Still, there's no denying the original iPod (1,000 songs in your pocket) took Apple one step closer to the iPhone and the iPad. It made solid state drives a necessity and made technologies like cloud computing, FireWire and the cool clickwheel the landmark features that would set it apart from the competition.

So while the iPod's 12th birthday hasn't really been celebrated and it wasn't even mentioned in the last few Apple Events, we really need to raise a glass to this iconic and game changing device that propelled Apple beyond its computer roots as well as changed the way people enjoyed music all over the world.

Adobe has also remedied some bugs like how Flickr takes over Lightroom when you export and you can only view images you’ve published on the platform unless you restart the Adobe program.

Website tracks F-bombs on Twitter

Curious about how many times and where F-bombs are dropped around the world? Fbomb.co tracks where the F-word is said around the world on Twitter. Leading offenders are the Americans and British with New York as the biggest cursers there are. But curses seem to be used frequently in non-English speaking countries as well.

Site creator Martin Gingras, a junior from Carleton University in Ottawa, told CNET: "I'm really happy about how widespread the views for this application have spread and I hope people get some entertainment out of it. However, I also hope that people take a moment to read a few of them and realize how ridiculous they can sound and think twice before just saying the first thing to come to their mind using social media."
