For the most part, we're all happy if we can get Internet that's fast enough to stream some HD video. But faster is always better, and a new, world-record setting network developed in Germany is so blazing fast you wouldn't know what to do with it. It can deliver 10 HD films in a second.

According to stats generated by Google, the internet's generally working better for everyone in 2013, as improvement in back-end, server and browser tech managed to speed everything up. So close that Speedtest tab and stop whining. Read More >>

Now that hackers have sunk their teeth well and truly into the Microsoft Surface RT, loads of things are being probed, including lag. Apparently, with a tiny registry edit, you can speed up the Surface RT no end and eliminate touch lag. Here's how. Read More >>

A team of scientists is claiming to have achieved the seemingly impossible: it's managed to create a nanoscale device which allows light to travel infinitely fast. But how the hell did they do it, and what does it mean? Read More >>

According to Einstein's special theory of relativity, light traveling in a vacuum is the universal speed limit. But scientists love to try and break rules — and now a tweaked version of Einstein's equations suggests that faster-than-light travel might just be possible. Read More >>

So, EE's 4G network is up and running, well, for testing anyway. But just how fast is it, and what speeds can you expect once you get a 4G phone in the palm of your hand, in the next month or so? Read More >>

This is freaking scary. This is even scarier than Big Dog. It's the latest version of the Pentagons's newest Cheetah robot and it now runs faster than Usain Bolt. 0.5 miles per hour faster than the fastest man on Earth. And if it can catch Bolt, it can catch you too. And then kill you. Read More >>

The staff of the Advertising Standards Authority have again had to adjudicate on another childish battle between the ISPs, with the latest spat seeing BT complain about Virgin Media's use of the phrase "say bye-bye to buffering." Read More >>

The Raspberry Pi is awesome. Less than £30 nabs you a pocket computer to do your worst with, but it's not quite lightning quick, at least when trying to browse the web. That's about to change though, as its default recommended OS has gotten a massive kick in the pants for more speed. Read More >>

Today, you might read that scientists have developed a way to produce faster-than-light travel. But steady, there: we've been burnt once recently, so let's not let it happen again. Did scientists really manage to break the speed of light? Read More >>

Apple made some bold claims about its new A5X chip, claiming it would give a 4x graphical boost over Nvidia's Tegra 3. At the same time, the Tegra 3 is a powerhouse of computational processing. So lets put 'em to the test. Read More >>

It’s the first of March, which has spurred Virgin into action on its promise to double everyone's broadband speed for free. The first 30 areas to get the speed boost in March and April have been announced, while Virgin’s thrown up a “Double Speed” checker for the rest of us. Read More >>

We know that Einstein always has the last laugh, but this is hilarious: the faster-than-light particles that could have wrecked his relativity theory are no more. It was a mistake in the test results caused by a loose cable. Read More >>

It's not the first time Virgin has bumped up its broadband speed for existing customers, but over the next 18 months everyone but the top-tier 100Mbps subscribers will get double their maximum speed. Read More >>

Even after spending years solving countless placemat mazes at restaurants around the world, I'm still no match for this robotic micromouse that races through this giant maze in just 3.921 seconds, shaving a full second off the previous record. Read More >>
