Inception Ending Explained
Confused about the ending of ‘Inception’? Here’s an explanation of what really happened in the film.
Many people walked away from Inception impressed. Some were
confused, some were even feeling like they had their brains woken by
the most exciting and thought-provoking movie experience to come along
all year.
I realize that most people who saw Inception have already

18 iPhone Apps for 3D Artists
We've gathered together a collection of free and paid-for apps that can help you to work smarter and faster.
Even if you have resisted the allure of Apple's iPhone so far, the surprisingly large quantity of 3D apps out there may prove useful enough to make you look twice at the ubiquitous shiny fruit-marked touch-phone.
We've got offerings from the likes of software heavyweights such as Autodesk and Luxology, and a whole host from unknown developers. If there isn't something here to help you with design, workflow or even just that ever sought after inspiration, we'll eat Steve Jobs' hat.

Crypteks USB Hides an Encrypted Thumb Drive
Everyone who has read the The Da Vinci Code or has seen the movie knows what a cryptex
is – an old-timey way to password protect your documents. Except
today’s documents typically come in digital form, say a flash drive,
rather than paper so as cool as a cryptex sounds, it’s no good to use
today.
Scribbles for Gmail Adds Artistic Touch
Gmail mobile just added a solid dash of fun to the user experience, folks. The freshly announced Scribbles feature enables you to quickly put together simple drawings via a lightweight interface, which is embedded right into the email composer – a sharp and fun way to express yourself in a different way than the conventional smileys.
The feature is currently available for Gmail
in your mobile web browser, as well as the Gmail app for iOS. The Gmail
client for Android is shockingly left out in the cold for the time
being.

Samsung Exynos 5250 2GHz Mobile Chipset, Super Fast
Just like it, the Exynos 5250 features two 2GHz cores, but now they are ARM Cortex A15 ones, built on the 32nm manufacturing process. Samsung claim it can provide double the performance of the previous Cortex A9 cores, the Exynos 4210 was using.
In the 3D graphics department, the new Exynos 5250 shines, too, boosting the performance up to four times. Speaking of 3D graphics the new chipset runs streoscopic 3D as well. It also supports much higher resolutions, compared to those we see in today's tablets and phones. In fact, the Exynos 5250 supports screen resolutions up to WQXGA 2560x1600 pixels.
Undoubtedly, with this kind of power, we will all be able to enjoy faster, more graphics heavy games and sharper text. According to Samsung, the mass production of the Exynos 5250 will begin in the second quarter of 2012.
