Test your color IQ by dragging and dropping some colors to arrange them by hue order. I got a 16 (lower is better). I messed up a bit in the green to blue transition. What’s your score?

If you weren't one of the 41 million Americans drinking water contaminated with sex hormones and pharmaceutical waste, welcome to the club! Testing prompted by AP's damning investigation has revealed that another five million people, including residents of Reno, Colorado Springs, and Chicago, now sip the potentially dangerous pharmaceutical soup. The substances detected in the latest tests mirrored those cited in the earlier AP report. Chicago, for example, found a cholesterol medication and a nicotine ...

We want to commend hhole for electing himself or herself guinea pig on this morning's coffee grounds post. Apparently, hhole immediately started rubbing coffee grounds all over his or her body in order to see if it really would work as a facial scrub/hair shiner. (Of course, this only makes us want to come up with some imaginary "use" for, say, kitty litter or corn meal to see whether hhole takes the bait.) Read this ...

SCIENCE. When murmurs of the new iPhone’s purported subpar 3G performance made its way around to Sweden, a company called Bluetest decided to try and determine once and for all if we all just had a case of the crazies. They stuck an iPhone 3G into a $110,000 noise-free chamber along with a simulated base station, and tested communications in both directions. Then they did the same tests with a Sony Ericsson P1 and a ...

El Photoshop ya no sirve solamente para sacar ombligos de divas argentinas o mejorar sus siluetas, sino que hoy en día hasta puede funcionar como una forma de presión política (y sino miren el caso de los misiles iraníes). Por eso, cada vez es más importante darse cuenta de si una foto fue retocada o no. Con The Photoshop Challenge podemos saber cuan vivos somos para notar la diferencia. Consiste en un test donde nos ...

Neben der klassischen Suchmaschinenoptimierung (SEO) gewinnt die Social Media Optimization (SMO) immer mehr an Bedeutung. Wer im Web 2.0 erfolgreich sein will, kommt an den sozialen Netzwerken nicht mehr vorbei. Dazu gehört dann natürlich auch eine Validierung der SMO-Maßnahmen. Die klassischen Backlink-Checker helfen hier nur bedingt weiter. Gefragt sind viel mehr Tools, die möglichst viele unterschiedliche Social Media Dienste abfragen und die Ergebnisse aussagekräftig und übersichtlich darstellen. Mittlerweile gibt es diverse Dienste mit denen man ...

Scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, CA announced on Thursday that they've developed a drug that gives you the benefits of exercise without actually doing anything. Unfortunately, they tested the compound on mice instead of my bedridden lover. Sedentary mice that took the drug for four weeks burned more calories and had less fat than untreated mice. And when tested on a treadmill, they could run about 44 percent farther ...

Das Bamboo-Tablet von wacom ist eines der hochwertigen und zugleich preiswerten Stifttablets für PC und Mac. Wir haben es einem Test als Mausersatz unterzogen. Beim Thema Ergonomie scheiden sich die Geister. Das haben wir gesehen, als wir vor einigen Wochen die HandshoeMouse getestet haben. Jetzt nehmen wir ein anderes ergonomisch geformes Gerät unter die Lupe, das vor allem für Grafiker nicht mehr wegzudenken, das zunehmend aber auch für Gelegenheits-Photoshopper von grossem Nutzen ist: Das Tablet, ...

In most states [the researchers] reviewed, and at most grade levels, there weren't any questions that involved complex problem-solving, the ability needed to succeed in high levels of science and math. If tests don't assess these reasoning skills, they may not be ...
