I know what I’m doing this weekend.

Millions of us have spent many hours trying to eliminate those pesky green pigs in Rovio’s Angry Birds series, but now it’s time to switch teams. Rovio just released Bad Piggies on Android, iOS, Mac, and PC. And for the first time ever you’re joining the pigs on their mission to steal as many eggs as they can get their hooves on.

We first told you about BlueStacks, an incredible application that allows you to run over 450,000 Android applications on your PC, back in March when it was first released as a beta. Several months later and it’s now available to those with a Mac.

Norton Identity Safe safely stores and syncs your passwords so that you have them with you wherever you go.

Remembering each and every password to each and every service you’ve ever signed up to is an incredibly difficult task. To make it easier, we create simple passwords that we’re less likely to forget, like the name of our favorite pet, our partner, or our car. The problem with that is, it’s not very secure.

Norton’s new Identity Safe is a free service that allows you to choose stronger passwords and keep your data safe while saving them all securely to your PC or smartphone to ensure that they’re never forgotten. You can then sync your passwords between your Mac, PC, Android and iOS devices so that you have them with you wherever you go.


After much testing and a 3-month Alpha run, BlueStacks has announced the availability of the beta-1 version of their App Player for PC. In case you’re unfamiliar with BlueStacks, it’s software that enables Android apps to run in windowed or fullscreen mode on a Windows PC. Their new patent-pending Layercake technology allows these apps to run seamlessly on x86-based PCs and leverages the advanced graphics capabilities of AMD APU and GPU platforms. Simply put: you can run your Android apps on your PC.
