Microsoft has announced that they will be releasing a Software Development Kit in the Spring that will allow people to develop programs for their Kinect sensor.

In a move that is sure to result in a "World's Greatest Dad" mug, one creative father constructed a fully-functioning cake based around the game 'Angry Birds'.

Roxio's resident "Mighty Eagle," Peter Vesterbacka, has confirmed that 'Angry Birds' will be finding its way to more mobile platforms. In addition, Vesterbacka also let slip that a 3D version of the game is in the works.

Following Matthew's last post, I'd like to thank him for his wonderful contribution to Gearfuse. The last three months have been an enchanted parenthesis. While it's been very refreshing working with Matthew, the kind of content that has been published here was too pointedly highbrow to attract new readers and to be a rapid grower.

Google goes for quiet comprehensiveness; Apple chooses charisma. Which strategy ensures success?

Adam Rothstein ponders hardware betas, connections between the world and the cloud, and products that aren't products, in the second post reviewing Google's Cr-48 Chrome Notebook.

If I were to equate gadget blogging to some occupation in a slice of modern cinema, the film that most immediately comes to mind is The Human Centipede: First Segment. That 2010 parable, directed by Tom Six, focuses on the misadventures of three people who, through a wacky series of missteps, are each sewn... shall we say... input-to-output to one another. Gadget blogging, you see, is primarily an act of chain digestion.

Adam Rothstein is a blogger, tech thinker, unemployed philosopher�and now, a beta tester of one of the coveted Google Chrome notebook computers. In the first of four posts about the beta experience, Adam finds that the unnanounced arrival of the device makes him feel like a combination of The Matrix's Neo and a Milo from The Phantom Tollbooth.

A deft, original game that combines throwback imagery with physical gameplay�its very simplicity demonstrating the power of game development. Video after the jump.
