by Thomas Houston on November 4, 2009 at 07:01 PM


There's a load of great tech news happening out there every day, and, unfortunately, we just can't cover it all. Here are a few of the other noteworthy things we saw today on our never-ending journey through the wild, wild Web.
  • Our friends over at TUAW visited the New York offices of Freeverse, creators of popular Mac games like 'Skee-ball' and 'Burning Monkey Solitaire,' to talk about gaming development on the iPhone and iPod touch. [From: TUAW]
  • You save the cash, do the research, drive over to the store and are stumped by the perennial, "Do you want to buy the extended warranty?" Here are some things to consider before throwing down an extra hundred (or more) on something you might not even need. [From: CNN]
  • Facebook might be great for sharing images and video, but it's nearly impossible to download movies your friends have uploaded. Here's how to rip those videos (so you can auto-tune your friend's new cat, right?) in just a few easy steps. [From: Zeropaid]
  • Forget rockets. NASA's latest race beyond the Earth's atmosphere finds competitors building Space Elevators. [From: ABC News]
