Tech Sassy: Utilize apps for efficient summer activities

The end is nigh. No, I’m not talking about the end of the world again; I’m talking about the end of the semester! School’s almost out, summer is fast approaching, and I bet you’ve got all sorts of outdoor adventures planned, right? I’m also guessing planning those events is stressful and confusing, but have no […]

Tech Sassy: Multiple love apps suit different people at different stages

Finding a long-term relationship, or even a date, is not left to the fated stare from across the crowded bar anymore. Dating apps put the single world at your fingertips and even let you stay in a certain niche. There are dating apps for every religion, interest and even age range. I chose the top […]

Tech Sassy: Internet radio not confined to Pandora

The Internet is at it again, trying to make us pay for our music, but don’t worry; there is a way around it. Rumors have been buzzing on sites such as abclocal.go.com for the past month about Pandora Radio imposing a 40-hour monthly limit on free accounts. This was the case once before back in […]

Tech Sassy: Which new game console will perform best?

It’s a feud as old as time. Well, maybe not that old, but as old as my time. I’m talking about Sony PlayStation vs. Microsoft Xbox. Both companies have been pretty well on par with each other, each releasing a system between 2000 and 2001 (PlayStation 2 and original Xbox) as well as 2005 and […]

Tech Sassy: Project Glass has author on edge of seat

I have never been as afraid, and yet so excited, for a piece of technology as I am for Project Glass.  The rumors of Project Glass, also known as the Google Glasses, have been floating around the Internet for at least a year. Up until now, though, everything has been hearsay since the developers have been pretty […]

Tech Sassy: Terms and conditions have always applied

Sound the alarms and circle the wagons because Facebook and Instagram are at it again, changing those pesky privacy policies and causing mass uproar and panic. The short version of the changes is pretty simple: By using the Facebook and Instagram social media services, you give the companies the right to your information to use in multiple ways. The […]

Students glean information from doomsday films

Everyone has a theory about when and how the world will end, and most of them come from the movies. Doomsday movies have been on the rise since Y2K and will probably continue long after Dec. 21, too. Many DSC students have favorite end of the world movies, and some even think the movies could […]

Tech Sassy: Harrison applauds attempts to prevent another SOPA

The Stop Online Piracy Act scare a year ago left some Internet dwellers wondering what direction the Internet would take in the future. Zoe Lofgren, a senior member of the House Judiciary Committee, wrote to Techcrunch on Nov. 13 about a few proposed bills waiting in the wings for the next session of Congress. I […]

Kill the Noise kills it

Grab your glow sticks and get ready to fist pump your heart out because the new album from Kill the Noise is crazy club-worthy. Kill the Noise is a newer band on the scene and  has only been releasing albums of its own dance music since 2011. Before that the group released dance covers of songs by The […]
