Ali Razeghi, an Iranian scientist who is the managing director of Iran's Centre for Strategic Inventions, has done something only the great Doc Brown has done: he's created a time machine. But unlike Doc's DeLorean, Razeghi's "The Aryayek Time Traveling Machine" can only take you to the future. What are we waiting for? Let's go! Read More >>

Everybody always imagines the future looking way cooler than it actually does. The Los Angeles Times just re-proved the point by republishing a 1988 issue in which it made a slew of guesses about 2013. Some of them were right, but unfortunately cars still don't look that cool. Read More >>

The world didn't end last Friday just like the world didn't end in the year 2000, with failing computers deleting bank accounts and crashing airplanes. That doesn't mean the world isn't going to end. It will. And if we keep our current operating systems, this is the exact date when all goes poof: 15:30:08 UTC on December 4th of the Year of Our Lord 292,277,026,596. Read More >>

Google's working on building a new kind of mobile search tool, one which pre-guesses what you're likely to be looking for and pings you a little update before you ask. Sort of like a clairvoyant butler arriving with a bacon sandwich when you need it most. Read More >>

While Surface might not be the Windows tablet saviour many were clamouring for, Microsoft's chief Steve Ballmer told the Beeb that more hardware will be on the way to set a "new standard" in "important opportunities". So, does that mean more hardware that can double as skateboards? Read More >>

Rarely am I given the opportunity to interview a genius. Someone who has really shaken up the tech world. So, when the opportunity to interview the founder and inventor of Lytro Cameras, Dr Ren Ng, presented itself I leapt at the chance. One thing is for sure: the man -- like his iconic camera -- does not disappoint. His is a story that will change the way you take photos. Pull focus with us. Read More >>

Here's a possible explanation as to how Apple became so successful: Steve Jobs might've been from the future. That's not true, of course, but to hear him nail so many predictions about modern technology back in 1983, it begins to feel like the only explanation. Read More >>

The other day, The Jetsons celebrated its 50th birthday. It may seem like we're living in the future these days, but, half a century after the show's original 24 episode run, we still don't have a lot of that juicy future-tech. Here are a couple of the most glaring absences. Read More >>

According to the Nvidia's cloud gaming boss, the Nintendo Wii U and the next-gen successors to the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 could very well be the last of home consoles gracing consumers, as cloud gaming ramps up, brings down latency and could very well be the future of home gaming. Read More >>

We've seen what Microsoft, and others like Corning, think the future will look like, but it's always been modelled on the US. What about good ol'Blighty? What will future Britain look like? It'll be full of virtual screens, I, Robot-like cars, and nagging technology that tells you what to do, apparently. Read More >>

Looks like we won't be jetting off to New York in time for dinner any time soon, as the X-51A WaveRider test ended in failure a mere 15 seconds after it had detached from the B-52, sending the jet into the ocean with a resounding plop. Read More >>

Hold on to your hats, as this is going to go fast. Although you're probably better off holding onto your face too, since this scramjet-powered, experimental aircraft can hit up to 4,500mph in a few seconds and jet to New York from London in just an hour. Woah. Read More >>

Some of you may remember last year's awesome hoverbike by Chris Malloy that we all looked at with awe and fists full of money, but it was still in the testing stage. Well, Chris has been working hard on the machine still in development, yet there are no immediate plans for production. BUT, Chris and co. can build you a prototype version for just £53,960 (Au$80,000), and that's not including shipping. Read More >>

Google's Nexus Q is many thing to many people. A miniature Death Star, an alien being, necessary but overwrought or, umm, a media streamer. It also has an extra, hidden function: it works as a magic 8-ball. Read More >>

Even with a fancy A5 processor or who-knows-how-many-core Snapdragon chip, smartphones sometimes can't quite keep up and apps take far longer to load than we'd really like. A team of engineers, however, is building software that predicts the future in order to speed things up. Read More >>
