NASA will cover today’s Asteroid fly by which will be visible on the other side of the planet.  Click here for NASA coverage.  There was discussion of whether today’s meteor explosion in Russia was connected to the asteroid but I hear it is a cosmic coincidence.  Click here for CNN’s coverage of the Russian meteor.  Not sure of the difference between an asteroid and a meteor?  Click here for some useful definitions that you can toss around at your next party.

Blackberry fans have something to be happy about.  The new model (Blackberry 10) appears to be a winner.  Read David Pogue’s review and decide for yourself.  It would be terrific for the great number of Blackberry fans if this is the turnaround they were hoping for.  For their sake, I hope it is and that a viable product line isn’t needlessly destroyed as Palm was.

This article from Digital Trends will interest you if you are running out of space on your iPad.  Apple has announced that it is adding a 128 GB iPad to its lineup.  That doubles the capacity of the current 64 GB top of the line model.  It won’t come cheap but the $799 may be worth it for those who want/need the additional space.  The news is that it will be available on February 5.

I always look forward to the Consumer Electronics Show (CES)!  What’s new? What’s possible?  What is the future?  With our smartphones, I often feel that the future is now.  Asking Siri for directions and reminders makes me feel like one of the characters in Star Trek or James Bond movies.  If you want to keep up with the action, check out the CES official site.  If you want to be informed at all times, download the mobil app.  There will be lots written about the show.  Don’t forget to check out your favorite technology sites (zdnet.com, cnet.com and mashable.com to name a few) for additional coverage.

Happy New Year!  It’s a time for making resolutions and reassessing goals.  Right up there with weight loss is saving money.  Cnet has a great article on The best money-saving tips of 2012 by Rick Broida.  Those same tips will carry well into the new year.  It’s great to save money on some items–then, you have more dollars to use somewhere else!
