    Zoom webpage

    Hi, So, I recently changed my old Motorola for a Huawei. In the Motorola, I usually used Chrome to browse through the internet. However, I also used Dolphin, because it did something Chrome didn't do: when I zoomed a web page (such as a news article), the text not only increased in size, but...

    New Data Saving Feature In Firefox Beta

    Gone are the years of unlimited all you can eat 4G LTE data, for many of you that is. I am still holding on to my grandfathered Alltel plan for dear life.

    Google Is Now Taking A Stance On Sketchy Ads

    Several days ago we learned that Samsung has baked support for ad blocking right into their browser. Of course this move is pretty controversial. On the plus side blocking ads keeps you from inadvertently downloading a virus through a hacked ad server. Blocking ads can also speed up your web...

    Official Samsung Browser Receives Ad Block Support

    I will never understand why any OEM would want to incorporate Ad Block into their device period. Smart phones exist to be web viewing devices. The overwhelming majority of the web is ad supported. Without ads you don't have anything to look at on your phone. It makes no sense. While this may be...

    Run Windows 95 In Your Web Browser

I love hearing the stories of old timers spending days punching out programs on cards for a computing process that took a few minutes. From the stories of the rat race to see who could own the latest and greatest...

    AdBlock Will No Longer Work On Youtube

    For a long time Adblock was one of the main reasons to root your device. There are now ways to enable adblock without root. There are even web browsers built to block ads. I have never been a proponent of adblock since it takes earnings away from the content creators I love. As a content creator...
