Spammers Take Over Apple's Ping Nvidia Shows New GPUs for Laptops Verizon Offers Prepaid Data Plans Google Updates Chrome Browser Samsung Sees Fast Galaxy S Growth Consumer Watchdog Attacks Google Apple launched iTunes 10 with its Ping social network, and within hours, the site fell victim to spammers looking to make a quick buck from Apple's unsuspecting 160 million music lovers. New notebooks with the Nvidia GeForce 400M series of graphics processing units are being released this fall, and the chipmaker introduced the new chips at the IFA consumer electronics show. In what could be the first phase of a transformation in the way its smartphone users pay for Internet use, the nation's biggest carrier, Verizon Wireless, has introduced prepaid data plans. Google's Chrome browser is now two years old, and the youngster -- and its proud parent -- are celebrating its rise in browser market share with an update to a faster Chrome version 6. Samsung Electronics is predicting it will sell 20 million to 25 million smartphones this year. The company also aims to ship 50 million smartphones in 2011, according to Samsung's J.K. Shin. Consumer Watchdog is attacking Google in a very public way -- with a Jumbotron digital advertisement in New York's Times Square. The missive comes in the form of an animated satirical video.   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   Spammers Take Over Apple's Ping   Nvidia Shows New GPUs for Laptops Verizon Offers Prepaid Data Plans May be a step toward pay-as-you-go.   FULL STORY Google Updates Chrome Browser Two years of growth makes it No. 3.   FULL STORY Samsung Sees Fast Galaxy S Growth From number five to number three?   FULL STORY Consumer Watchdog Attacks Google Schmidt ad targets privacy about-face.   FULL STORY Flipboard Lets You Choose Your Editor Know Your Power-Saving Options Fix Your Internet Explorer Annoyances Tablet vs. Netbook: Which To Choose? Easy, No-Fuss Backup Solutions Corporations Want Business Ideas Most of the articles that show up in your newspaper or magazine are chosen by professional editors. What if they are picked out by a friend instead? Or your mom? That's the concept behind Flipboard. Computers need power -- and plenty of it. But if you're like many, you may be concerned about how much power your computer actually uses, and it's difficult to know which power-saving options to use. Love it or hate it, Microsoft's Internet Explorer, by most estimates, still commands the lion's share of the browser market. That means a lot of people are encountering problems they'd like to solve. Computer manufacturers are working hard on their answer to the iPad with models in various sizes and designs expected soon. But choosing the right device means evaluating your needs. If you have to remember to back up your data, you won't. Any backup solution that does not eliminate the human factor is bound to fail. Here are some solutions that will take the chore of backing up from you. Startups are vying for funding in a GE contest called the ecomagination Challenge -- one of at least a dozen similar programs sponsored by corporations casting a wider net for new business ideas.   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   Flipboard Lets You Choose Your Editor   Know Your Power-Saving Options Fix Your Internet Explorer Annoyances Love it or hate it, you probably use it.   FULL STORY Tablet vs. Netbook: Which To Choose?
