    Boost your video quality in Netflix's mobile app. Netflix has updated its iOS and Android applications to let customers adjust streaming quality on mobile networks so that users with high data caps or unlimited data can choose higher-quality video.

    New tech turns your skin into a touchscreen for your smartwatch
    One of the biggest challenges with smartwatches is trying to navigate through apps on a relatively tiny screen. While smartphones and tablets have gotten bigger over the years, the gadgets we wear on our wrists need to stay small to avoid looking terribly unfashionable. Today a team at the Future Interfaces Group, a research lab within Carnegie Mellon University, released a look at a novel solution to this problem: making the skin on your arm and hand act like a touchscreen for your smartwatch...
