Web designers around the Globe are already very familiar with websites like FlashDen, ThemeForest, GraphicRiver, AudioJungle, VideoHive or the Tuts+ network. What many don't know is the fact that all of these websites and more actually started three years ago inside a garage in Australia.

Plus size women are often overlooked by designers and even mainstream clothing outlets, so much so that they’re often forced to wait for sales or forego all aesthetic considerations just to be able to buy something new. Of course, that’s not to say that curvier women don’t want to be fabulous as well &ndash...

For starters, it had been made on a budget of just $70 (£45); secondly, it brought something new to the table in that it was shot entirely from the zombie’s perspective; and, last but not least, it premiered at Cannes and managed to cast in a corner of shade Hollywood big productions whose budgets were somewhere in the range of millions of dollars. For such a small film and a new director, these are clearly amazing accomplishments. Understandably then, when we got to spea...

Starting with last year, the competition in this market segment has become tighter, with both AMD and its competitor Nvidia trying to provide users with the highest performance possible. Last year, AMD was the first company to come to the market with a graphics card manufactured using the 55nm process technology, while this year the giant manufacturer is the first to move to the 40nm fabrication, though only in the mobile card area. Even so, we should be able to see desktop gra...

The security companies that have been affected include Kaspersky, Bitdefender, F-Secure and Symantec. Even though some vulnerabilities have been less serious than others, these documented attacks have strengthened the idea that security is a cat-and-mouse game and that, indeed, no one is invulnerable on the Internet today.
