Adjust the screen brightness under the Settings tab.

"iPhone 5 Called ""Gadget off the Year"" by Time Magazine, Apple's iPhone 5 (from $199 on 2-year AT&T, Sprint or Verizon plan) is a serious piece of hardware. Along with its powerful new A6 chip, iPhone 5 works on 4G/Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks for wireless speeds that rivals your home's broadband connection. iPhone 5 also has improved cameras: an eight-megapixel iSight rear-facing camera (3264 x 2448 pixels) and front-facing FaceTime camera with 720p HD quality for video calling. Samsung Galaxy S III The Samsung Galaxy S III (from $149 on 2-year plan with AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular, Verizon) is a true smartphone in every sense of the word -- and we're not even referring to its stunning 4.8-inch display, fast LTE speeds or versatile Android operating system. the Galaxy S III's front-facing camera knows when you're looking at the screen, so it'll give you the bright display you seek, but if your eyes look away it'll dim itself to preserve its battery. It also knows when you want to talk: if you're messaging with someone and want to call them, simply lift the smartphone to your ear and it'll dial for you. Nokia Lumia 920 As the flagship Windows Phone 8 device, Nokia's Lumia 920 (from $99.99 on 2-year AT&T plan), has a lot to offer, including a colorful Start screen with ""live tiles""; familiar Microsoft apps like Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote; and a People hub that aggregates all your contacts into one page per person (so you don't need to close, say Outlook, to see what that friend is up to on Facebook or Twitter). HTC Droid DNA and HTC One X+ A pair of Android-powered HTC devices are also worthy of ""best of 2012"" nods: the HTC Droid DNA ($149.99 on 2-year Verizon Wireless plan) and HTC One X+ ($199.99 on 2-year AT&T plan). Protected by Corning's uber-durable Gorilla Glass 2 technology, the Droid DNA's 5-inch 1080p HD screen was built for video, games, ebooks and web browsing. Integrated Beats Audio - an

"Looking for a pair of wireless headphones to complement your super tight jeans? JayBird's SB2 Sportsband headphones should serve as the perfect tech-cessory for your 80′s inspired hipster wardrobe thanks to their wide headband and small collection of colors ranging from subtle to almost neon.

However, if you wanted to take advantage of its CD-quality wireless sound with other gear like the iPhone.

Microsoft has added a wonderful Windows repair tool to find a quick way out of Windows problems. This is actually a reverse gear, which you can use to alter any changes that might have incurred to the operating system due to faulty software or driver update, virus or malware attack, incompatible driver, or more. So don't forget to create Restore Point within a reasonable timeframe-say, the last couple of months to stay safe.

Developers continue to do crazy things to show us what can be done with CSS3. The latest is a fully animated Twitter fail whale by Steve Dennis: The idea for this came to me this morning after being greeted first thing this morning by another Twitter outage. I'd been looking for something to stretch my CSS muscles on, and the Fail Whale seemed perfect. Also I think the animation only adds to his (or her?) charm. How was this made? The short answer is very painfully, by hand, using trial and error. Curves are done using various uneven border-radius properties, stranger angles (such as the strings) are masked using containers with overflow: hidden; set on them. I hope someone else gets a bit of enjoyment out of my wasted Sunday. It was a fun experiment that I don't plan on repeating any time soon. Take a look at the source to see the mass of code such as: PLAIN TEXTCSS:@-webkit-keyframes flutter1 {  0%   { -webkit-transform:rotate(0deg) }  50%  { -webkit-transform:rotate(-25deg) }  100% { -webkit-transform:rotate(0deg) }}.right .wing {  background: transparent !important;  z-index: 22 !important;  width: 15px;  height: 18px;  bottom: 4px;  left: 8px;  -webkit-animation: 'flutter1' 0.1s linear;  -webkit-animation-iteration-count: infinite;} 

The following demo was made using a variety of CSS techniques. Rounded corners, shadows, gradients, rgba, pseudo-elements, and transforms are just some of them. A lot of these were generated by helpful tools, such as westciv's tools and Border Radius. By combining these techniques, you can create rich graphics with just a few lines of code. Here are a few examples. In the contacts icon, I used 5 different shapes for the silhouette icon. The head is a rectangle with rounded corners, followed by another rectangle for the neck and a distorted semi-circle for the body. In order to get the curve of the shoulders to the neck, I placed two circles on top of the shapes. The weather icon has several rays of light shooting from behind the sun. Each one of these rays is actually a long rectangle with a gradient that fades to transparent on either end. I used -webkit-transform:rotate to rotate each rectangle to a different angle. The same effect was used for the iTunes icon. to get the cloud icon on the iDisk icon, I used two circles layered on top of each other, above a rounded rectangle. The larger circle has a gradient that cuts off just before the rectangle.

There are many paths to consider when building links to your site or blog such as link baiting or blogroll link swapping, but few are as easy to implement and cost effective as submitting to blog directories - and good link juice is essential to a healthy

I'm a new contributor to the SitePoint blogs and will mostly be covering front-end development and Semantic Web technologies. I'm looking forward to participating in the SitePoint community! Sometimes it's the simplest things that go unnoticed for the longest time. Case in point, while catching up on some WSG reading tonight, I saw a link to Paul Hammond's Conditional classnames for Internet Explorer. In a sentence, he shows how using conditional comments to customize the element's class name can be used to simplify CSS selectors for a number of advantageous purposes.

The easy way to use CSS2.1 to solve difficult cross-browser layout issues: CSS tables solve all the problems encountered when using absolute positioning or floats to create multi-column layouts in modern browsers. Specifying the value table for the display property of an element allows you to display the element and its descendants as though they're table elements. The main benefit of CSS table-based layouts is the ability to easily define the boundaries of a cell so that we can add backgrounds and so on to it-without the semantic problems of marking up non-tabular content as a HTML table in the document.
