Wii U January Sales Predicted At Nearly 55,000 Units

During the Nintendo Wii U's launch week in the U.S., Nintendo announced it sold 400,000 units of its next-generation console, but it looks like in post-holiday sales it hasn't been keeping up with its launch-week momentum as a new report is showing the Wii U isn't selling so great these days. This past January, the Wii U only sold only 57,000 units in the U.S. Those sales numbers aren't coming from Nintendo, as we're sure they'd be embarrassed to report that number, instead, they're coming from an unnamed source who is said to have access to numbers from the NPD Group.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Accidentally Revealed In Promotional Ad

We know Samsung is working on an 8-inch tablet in the Galaxy Note family which we have a feeling will be making its debut at MWC later this month. Three variants are expected when Samsung finally unveils the device and we've seen photos of the device leaked on the Internet, but the company may have just ruined its own reveal by possibly leaking the Galaxy Note 8.0 in a promotional image. The origins of the possible leak came from yesterday's announcement of making a red Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE available just in time for Valentine's Day.

Chevrolet Introduces 'Smart Material' In The 2014 Corvette

Chevrolet has made great efforts to use new technology in its cars. And in a bid to reduce weight in the Corvette, the company has announced it will be using a lightweight shape memory alloy wire to replace motorized components used to open and close a hatch release vent. So what exactly does this lightweight shape memory alloy wire do. Basically it's a wire made from copper-aluminum-nickel or nickel-titanium.  The wire's chemistry allows it to change its shape when subjected to heat, electric current or pressure.

Jawbone MyTalk Experiences Limited Hack

Jawbone has announced that a small number of accounts had been compromised by cyber-attacks. The company did not mention how many, but did use the word “limited” to describe the scope of the attack. In any case, some user data (email, password, address) may have been stolen,  but Jawbone doesn't think that more than that was accessed.

US President Obama Announces “Made in USA” Macs

Children regularly exposed to inappropriate online adverts

- 75 per cent of UK parents think that children see inappropriate content through online advertisements* - Children as young as five are being exposed to online advertisements and pop-up adverts that contain adult content such as gambling, dating services, as well as sexualised imagery, according to Till Faida, co-founder of Adblock Plus. Online adverts are often embedded on websites from other sources, making it unlikely that web filters (the primary way many parents protect their children online) will pick up on them.
