One of the questions that I have pondered most since the iPad official announcement is how developers will price their iPad apps for people who already own an iPhone.
Apple is encouraging developers to create universal apps, apps that will work on any iPhone, iPod Touch, or the iPad (making use of the different features of [...]

If you’ve been looking for some good sites for climate change information, here is a list to get you started.  If you’re on an iPhone, there’s now an app that can help, too.

Before you say no, consider this scenario. Right now there are millions like me that are paying a carrier that provides terrible service far too much money for phone, text, and data. If only we could use our iPhones (without jail-breaking and unlocking them) on Verizon, we have often mused. But who wants to give up their amazing iPhone just for a bit better service?

Today, a new post on Realclimate.org debunks yet another pseudoscientist claiming to have found the cure to all of our global warming blues. Read the article here.
Of all the blogs I read, my favorite and most trusted (and also voted top Science Blog of 2005) is RealClimate.org. One role that they have played in the recent past [...]

A new study by Halevy et al. published in the Journal of Geophysical Research (Vol. 114, D18112, doi:10.1029/2009JD011915, 2009) uses radiative transfer theory to demonstrate that higher levels of CO2 and other greenhouse gasses in the early Earth and Martian atmospheres limited the amount of infrared radiation that is able to escape the planets’ atmospheres. It’s [...]

For the tiny portion of the global population that still thinks that Global Warming is a hoax that Al Gore and some liberal scientists are proposing to make a few bucks, I swallow back some harsh words and will try to patiently offer some data for you to peruse. (I will try not to compare [...]

Glaciers are responding to climate change in ways that we have expected for decades. The only difference is the speed. Around the world, glaciers are retreating at rates that are unprecedented, and previously deemed impossible. Thanks to some amazing time-lapse photography and an incredibly talented group of scientists, photographers, a large dose of ingenuity, and their [...]
