For every step Facebook takes toward improving consumer privacy and information control, it seems to take about five giant steps back. The latest example is the unilateral change it made to users' listed email addresses: It converted them to @facebook.com, and messages now go to the Facebook email i...
Bowing to fan outrage over the controversial ending of "Mass Effect 3" earlier this year, BioWare is releasing an "extended cut" version of the last game in the space epic trilogy.

Twitter was unavailable to users for significant portions of the day on Thursday. Contrary to speculation, it wasn't due to a hack attack, despite attempts by some groups to claim responsibility.

Ethiopia has passed a draconian new law criminalizing the use of Voice over Internet Protocol services such as Skype or Google Talk.

Web entrepreneurs Sean Parker and Shawn Fanning, best known for propelling music into the digital-download age with Napster more than 10 years ago, have launched a new endeavor, Airtime, with much fanfare.

In 2010, IT security researchers took note of a new virus that was bouncing from country to country via the Internet.

Monmouth, Wales, has become the first "Wikipedia town," making it an area of international interest as it informally redubbed itself "Monmouthpedia."

The FCC has taken action against Google, citing its efforts to impede the agency's investigation into its Street View project's possible privacy violations, and levying a fine on the company.
