ABC’s hit medical drama - now the longest running medical drama on TV - has already been renewed for a sixteenth season, before its fifteenth has even concluded. With Grey’s Anatomy being such a long-running series, it has become a constant in many viewer’s lives. The cast of characters have become so beloved over the years, that even people who don’t watch Grey’s probably know who Dr. Meredith Grey is....
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 debuts a new TV spot exactly one month before the film’s premiere date. Marvel and Disney don’t need to do much more to promote the highly anticipated sequel. Writer/director James Gunn is doing plenty of promotion on his own, including behind-the-scenes photos. There may be no more new trailers, but some eye-popping posters and banners have surfaced online. The TV spots are also continuing to roll out for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol....
There is an upsetting amount of Neville Longbottom’s backstory that is left out of the movies. So much so, that even Matthew Lewis, the actor who plays the part of Neville, feels that his character kind of got gypped. Neville, although he seems to be a secondary character, is actually part of the glue that ties many of the story’s characters and plots together. So understandably, it can be easy to dismiss Neville as a background character if you have only seen the movies....
Harry Potter is the protagonist of the Harry Potter series, and he’s definitely a well-loved character by many fans. Harry might be the hero of the series, but he definitely has a lot of flaws. Many fans have pointed out that Harry can be rather annoying at times, and this is often because he’s not great at thinking things through. Given all the things Harry has to deal with, it’s understandable that he doesn’t always act perfectly....
The Wizarding World is full of colorful characters with many quirks, and one of the most peculiar characters in the Harry Potter universe is Sybill Trelawney, professor of Divination at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Although she made the prophecy concerning Voldemort and the one powerful enough to vanquish him, she also made smaller predictions and observations that many students considered to be fake, among those one about Harry Potter, mistakenly saying he was born in mid-winter – but it might have not been a mistake after all, and she could have been sensing something else that Harry was unaware of....
Bit.ly has been dominating the short-link business for a while now thanks to Twitter and friends. In the mean time other contenders have appeared such as is.gd and su.pr. Now Google has officially jumped on the band wagon. Google’s URL shortener has been around for a while now, but previously it was only available using the Google Toolbar or Feedburner. Today they launched the site goo.gl and it integrates with the rest of Google’s services seamlessly....
Many schools around the world base their IT deployments on Google services. As schools were forced to shut down as a result of the coronavirus quarantine rules, many institutions have flocked to Google Classroom to keep up the curriculum for students and send out homework. It turns out that the students are less pleased with this arrangement. No doubt the number of people using Google Classroom has hit record highs, with the app reaching the top 5 in the App Store Education charts....
Following a bigger update earlier this month, Google today updated its Google Play Music app for iPhone with official support for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. That means that the app, which offers access to Google Play Music content and its All Access music streaming service, now takes advantage of the increased real estate on the larger, higher-resolution 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 and 6 Plus displays. Google also notes that the update brings “Lots of little tweaks and bug fixes....
What’s that, you ask? Well, imagine the fact that Google founder Sergey Brin (who was in the event hall with the attendees), was having a live Google Hangout with a few skydivers. All of them were wearing Glass devices while they jumped off a plane and were followed by bikers doing stunts on the roof and, eventually, getting into the hall. The groovy part was that everyone could see the whole thing through their eyes, using the Google glasses....
If you’re someone that regularly edits photos, or enjoys graphic design work, then you’ve likely used Pixelmator, which is arguably the best alternative to Photoshop on the Mac. Today, the popular $15 app is getting a huge update, known as 2.2 “Blueberry,” which includes over 100 new features. I’ve been testing out the new options, and they’re pretty great… Shapes Pixelmator 2.2 focuses heavily on shapes and vector drawing options, bringing to the table a slew of new options....
Cygnett: I used a couple of Cygnett’s cases over the past few months on both iPhone and iPad and can vouch for the quality. The company already has a few designs for iPhone 5 available, including an aluminum version of its UrbanShield case in black and white and a genuine carbon fibre version (both pictured above). Case-Mate has its Barely There case available in a variety of colors for iPhone 5, but it also has a huge lineup of cases already available for order on its website....
While lawyers for bankrupt sapphire supplier GT Advanced confirmed previously that it had reached an agreement to repay Apple approximately $439 million, many details regarding what exactly went wrong in the partnership had not been disclosed publicly. Today we get what might be the clearest explanation yet of what happened between the two companies leading up to GTAT filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last month. In a declaration filed by COO of GT Advanced Daniel Squiller with the courts yesterday (via Fortune), the company outlines previously sealed info regarding its deal with Apple and terms of the deal that lead to GT’s bankruptcy filing....

Last Updated: July 9, 2020 The Halloween franchise will continue with two more films from David Gordon Green - Halloween Kills and Halloween Ends - and we already have quite a few details on the first sequel. The franchise went through a reboot (and second retconning) with Green’s Halloween in 2018, a direct sequel to John Carpenter’s original film that completely ignored the sequels and reunited Jamie Lee Curtis, John Carpenter (who served as producer, composer, and creative consultant), and Nick Castle....
The main cast of Showtime’s Halo series has been announced, showing a mix of familiar characters and names new to the franchise, along with news that it will premiere some time in the first quarter of 2021.

Harry Potter star Tom Felton has bad news for fans: he doubts the original cast will ever return in new movies. Despite having come to an end in 2011 with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II, author J.K. Rowling’s wildly successful book and film franchise still continues to grow. It only took five years after the final film installment for Rowling to write new adventures within the so-called Potterverse....

Google has rolled out two new features to mobile search that allow users to find results faster. Users will notice expandable sitelinks that present popular links from certain websites directly from the search page rather than having to look for those important links from the website’s page. Quick links will also begin appearing next to certain results, which offers users a faster way to preview a site before leaving the search page, much like how Google Images handles photo previews....
A Google Photos storage system “mistake” this year resulted in image and video uploads being “inaccurately” counted towards your cloud storage quota. This Photos issue, which is now fixed, was present throughout 2020 and Google is offering a refund for One storage during that period. The company, specifically the Photos team, reached out to those impacted today, noting that this problem applies to a “limited number of people.” They first establish that all uploads are safe and that the bug just relates to your “storage quota....
Google Photos is getting a number of updates today that improve the editing experience through machine learning and more manual controls. Additionally, a standalone PhotoScan app for iOS allows you to digitize your old physical prints with just your phone’s camera.
