Space-saving Madrid apartment boasts adaptable interior
January 28, 2014
Fun-loving Spanish architects Elii, the same firm responsible for the JF-Kit House,

Didomestic, the ambitious project sees the company's creative flair

thought-provoking results. Read More
Line 6 has unleashed what's claimed to be an
entirely new kind of guitar amplifier. In addition to a powerful guitar
speaker sitting behind the red grille at the bottom, the AMPLIFi is also
home to full range stereo speakers in the black top section. The design
is claimed to offer players a wider frequency range, but the inclusion
of Bluetooth technology also allows the system to be used as a streaming
audio speaker. Impressive stuff, but the company didn't stop there. A
companion app has been created that opens up the system to a new world
of tone. The Remote app will even suggest matches for the sound of
guitars in favorite songs so that you can easily nail the tone of your
heroes, or jam along to tracks without sounding (too) out of place. Read More

Since Earth is the only known inhabited planet
and we happen to live here, it’s only natural to regard it as the ideal
place for life to exist, and to assume that another life-bearing planet
would be fairly similar. However, that is not the opinion of scientists
René Heller and John Armstrong who contend that there might be a planet
even more suitable for life than Earth 4.3 light years away orbiting the
star Alpha Centauri B. Read More
Ozgur Sahin believes that water evaporation is
the largest power source in nature. In an effort to demonstrate the
potential of this untapped resource, Sahin and his fellow researchers
have created prototype electrical generators with rubber sheets that
move in response to changes in humidity thanks to a coating of bacterial
spores. Read More
Back in 2012, Montreal-based

January 27, 2014
The last time we took a look at the Nexus 5 and iPhone 5s, we ran through a simple comparison
of their specs and features. But now that we've had some extended
hands-on time with both handsets, we thought it was worth revisiting the
decision. Read on, as Gizmag goes hands-on to compare the LG/Google Nexus 5 and Apple iPhone 5s. Read More
