AOL vs. Windows 8
(reshared from Linda Lawrey)
Using Skype to voice chat while playing LoL reminded me of a couple of the many reasons I quit Skype last November.

This is, without a doubt, the cutest cat GIF I have seen. Happy Caturday!

If you own an Android device or iOS device, you are probably familiar with Google Voice Search and Voice Actions, which let you do things like search and get directions just by speaking. As of today, that same experience is now available on Google Chrome.
Voice Actions for Chrome is a Chrome/Chromium extension that lets you search from any page just by speaking. Currently you can search, view maps, get directions, and open web pages. Other features, such as e-mail dictation, will be added soon.
Note that the Chrome Speech API is still experimental, so the extension is not available from the Web Store, but it can be downloaded from goo.gl/5AFmA. You will also need to enable experimental extension APIs in your browser (instructions at goo.gl/mEbWC).
