Microsoft Windows hit 40. Over at Stuff, I wrote about its path from wonky beginnings to world-domination.

Bubble Bobble is excellent. Hammering the point home is the new Evercade Alpha Taito unit, which I wrote about for Stuff in my column called ‘I always wanted a full-size arcade machine, but this is even better’.

The new online App Store is great. And awful. For TapSmart, I outline why I think it represents the best and worst of Apple.

Editing photos on an iPhone? My latest for Amateur Photographer heads beyond Photos to explore the photo editors that have stuck around on my smartphone.

Speaking of iPhones… I overhauled Stuff’s ‘best iPhone in 2025 ranked from best to worst’ list.

And speaking of iPhone photos… I find the prospect of tidying a library of thousands of snaps overwhelming. But apps like Memories and Fastbackward make doing so manageable. Find out how in my column for TapSmart.

Buying a gift for a frequent flyer? My latest for British Airways High Life lists 11 they’d (probably) love.

Tired of feeling insane all the time? That’s the question Marie Le Conte asks in her recent column. And, yeah, I feel exactly the same when it comes to online discourse and the current path of British politics.

Type-in listings are back! If you’re a child of the 1980s, you might remember spending hours laboriously typing a listing into your 8-bit micro. And then said listing failing to work. Yet there was always something magical when one of the things did spark into life. Now you can relive the joy/horror with DOCTYPE, which is a properly old-school listings mag but for web apps. A genius and terrifying creation in roughly equal measure.
