Mobile World Congress 2015 is arguably one of my favorite trade shows of the year, along with CES. New mobile devices are being flaunted here and there, major corporations are making risky bets and mistakes...
Yeah, it's that time of year again. Prepare yourselves for snark, confusion, and the ever-present question:
WHY? JUST, WHY?

The Fight with APUSH and Oklahoma
As a high school student, I had the honor of taking three different AP courses and one dual-credit course to count for college credit. These four college level courses helped me not only earn credit to move up from certain classes, but also prepared me for the intense studying I had to do for college.
However, with new changes to the AP United States History curriculum (lovingly nicknamed APUSH), many people are getting mad. Lawmakers are scrambling to either ban the course, cut funding for it, or change up the course to better fit what they think needs to be put in it.
Everyone. Calm down. We can fix this rationally. Both sides are at fault.

However, the Razer Forge TV has come up as a challenge at $100, offering the same streaming feature for less yet sacrificing mobility; it's a TV set-top box running Android TV. The question is, which one is better for you?

The Internet of Things Explained
It's one of the hottest growing trends in consumer tech, and yet the term used to describe it is confusing yet equally all-encompassing. It's been a major topic at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, and it's becoming a device category that will become more and more talked about in the coming months. What does it really mean to understand the Internet of Things? What exactly is the Internet of Things?
