That's a mouse? Really?
Earlier this week, Microsoft teased us about a new product by posting hints and pictures on Twitter. Judging by the photos and the description of a 'flat and touchy' device, many assumed (guilty) that this was some sort of smartphone or tablet. However, recent reports suggest that it's nothing of the sort.

Samsung Files Patent for Double-sided Tablet
Samsung has filed for a patent on a double-sided tablet device with two touchscreens.
As magical and revolutionary as the iPad claims to be, our readers have pointed out many times that the iPad was not the first tablet to exist. However, the iPad's success has shown other manufacturers just how popular the slate design is with computer users, and they're all eager to jump on the bandwagon. Rather than going with the tried and true design, it looks like Samsung is looking to modify the design just a little bit and make things more interesting.

Windows 7 is Finally More Popular Than Vista
Congratulations, Windows 7, as you've passed your predecessor in user share in July.

According to web analytics firm Net Applications, share for Windows 7 was at 14.46, while Windows Vista was at 14.34. This marks the firs time that Windows 7 usage had been greater than that of Windows Vista, perhaps a sign of those on the older OS upgrading or getting new machines.

100 Million Facebook Profiles Hit the Torrents
And corporations are interested in all your public Facebook data.

Earlier this week, roughly 100 million Facebook accounts were bundled together in a 2.8GB package and put on the torrents for anyone to download. Mind you, the information contained in the package was just a result of a programmed spider crawling on open Facebook profiles mining anything that was public information.
