Loading ...Kinect vs Move
Jun 19th
Battle of the consoles – always a great debate amongst tech enthusiasts, hardcore gamers and fanboys a like.
It seems that the success of Nintendo Wii’s concept of gaming has prompted both
Microsoft and Sony to get into the market.
Both the PS3 and Xbox 360 have a massive user base and each have their exclusive games and content. But as they both venture into the “motion” style of gaming – who do you think is going to win??

A faster, smarter DNS service
Apr 15th
For those of you that are more technically minded amongst our readers you will already know what DNS is – for those of you that don’t it is what is known as a “Domain Naming Service”.
Effectively what this does is allow humans to type in www.john-willis.com for example into their web browsers. The computer cannot understand where to get this from as computers work best with numbers, this is where the DNS servers come into play. They convert the human readable name to a number which without the service would be impossible for humans to remember (for example 92.35.234.18)
Want to know more about how changing the service you use could speed up the internet, as well as keeping your network safe – then read on! More >
