As The Next Web reported, users are finding that their Facebook status messages aren’t being cross-posted to Twitter even though they’ve set up their accounts to do so. I first noticed this the other night, but thought nothing of it, since I’m not really a fan of cross-posting.
We reached out to both companies and Facebook let us know that this was indeed a bug and that they’re working on it. → Read More

It can also be used with eight different ‘gadgets’ around your home or wherever it is you choose to use it with (your children, perhaps). The two Aussies hope to have their wonderbox on the market… → Read More
