10 Visionary Female Game Designers
It's no secret that gaming isn't just for guys anymore,
and there are definitely more women in positions of power
throughout the tech industry. However, I wonder how many
of you realize the key role women played in the
development of some of our earliest and favorite video
games. This slideshow of 10 influential female video game
designers could be an eye opener.

Tenka, Facebook and the Art of the Deal
Facebook and Groupon are making deal news, but the
industry is full of scrappy little startups like Tenka
that do deals and service businesses and customers in
their own way. I got the inside story from Tenka's co-
founder and CEO. If you're at all interested in deals
and local-to-digital marketing, you should find this
fascinating.

Great Tech Gifts for Mother's Day
Guess what? Mother's Day is this weekend, and if you
don't want to be in the dog house for the next 365 days,
you better find Mom a great gift today. Fortunately, PCMag
has already done the leg work for you. These are ideas
all guaranteed to help make Mom's life easier--something
you probably never did. Peruse and then go shopping.

D-day for the Latest Versions of Ubuntu, Slackware, Chakra,
and 8 Other Linux Distributions
The only Linux distro I've ever successfully used is Ubuntu.
It's slick, smart, easy to understand and generally works as
you would expect a good desktop interface to. Now I hear
that it's getting an update, along with a slew of other
Linux platforms (most of them based on Ubuntu). ExtremeTech
explains. Plus, PCMag has a review of the latest Ubuntu
update.

Leaked Windows 8 builds reveal Windows Store and its logo
Microsoft has promised that Windows 8 will run on ARM based
processors, but hasn't said much else about the new OS. That
does not stop people from showing off whatever they've
learned from what people believe is a Windows 8 beta build.
None of this is confirmed by Microsoft, but it is interesting
to read and ponder. Learn more at Geek.com

Review: Brother's Smart, Small, Thermal Printer
This 1.1-lb gem is perfect for the always-on-the-go worker.
Read the full review for details on price, performance and
why its output is just as good as a standard inkjet.
