Have you looked at your phone's contacts list lately? If so then you may find that it's become something of a mess that's filled with people you've contacted once or twice over email who have now been imported into your master list. This problem is particularly bad if you import your contacts from multiple email accounts, which can lead to lots of duplicate entries for the same people. Thankfully, Joanna Stern of The Wall Street Journal has alerted us to a terrific app called Cleanup Duplicate Contacts that does a lot of the dirty work of fixing your overstuffed contacts list for you.

I've always found it fascinating when researchers discover entirely new species. Not only does it serve as a helpful reminder that there's still so much more on this earth left to discover, it also introduces us to some ridiculously crazy creatures, such as this cartwheeling spider from Morocco.
The most recent species discovery comes to us from Costa Rica, where researchers uncovered a completely new species of glass frog. While the new frog species can't do any cartwheels, it's worth highlighting because it bears an uncanny resemblance to a much more famous frog: Kermit the Frog from The Muppets, to be exact.
If you’re a paying HBO Now subscriber and have no idea what a VPN is, your account is safe. However, if you happen to love HBO’s new streaming deal but you are paying for it from outside the U.S. and connecting through a VPN service, then you might be in trouble.
It was not an easy decision, and I think it's really important to remind every single customer that this is not just a new product for us, this is an entirely new category. And the first time we've ever previewed a product two weeks before availability.Ahrendts told employees that she'll be providing updates on supply on a week by week basis, and she asked retail employees to prepare to help customers who will be receiving a pre-ordered Apple Watch in the near future. Ahrendts also once again confirmed that the Apple Watch launch is a unique situation and not reflective of Apple's launch plans going forward. "We love our launches we do in stores," she said. "Have absolutely no fear, this is a unique situation."
The great news is from anyone who did pre-order, they'll start getting their orders this Friday.
It seems like every year we see hot new hardware promise killer specs that will change the way we use our smartphones. While these specs are often over-hyped, it actually does look like smartphones with 4GB of RAM will allow us to do things on our phones that we never could do before, such as have multiple graphics-intensive games open and running at the same time.
So you think you know everything there is to know about New York City, do you? Then you might be pleasantly surprised to discover a hidden corner of the city that’s been deserted for decades and is still preserved just as it was in 1963 when it was abandoned. Well, not exactly the same -- nature has taken its toll on the place and has left it looking like a scene from Fallout 3.
With supply of the Apple Watch exceedingly low, and shipping times delayed as a result, Apple today sent out emails to iOS developers offering them an opportunity purchase a 42mm Apple Watch Sport with a blue Sport band with a guaranteed shipping date of April 28th.
The purpose behind the offer is, quite naturally, to give developers a better chance to test out their Apple Watch apps as soon as possible. Note, though, that not every interested developer will be able to get a new Apple Watch so quickly. Because supply is limited, developers who apply will be chosen by Apple at random this Thursday.
It's been a relatively slow start for the Xbox One in 2015, with hardly any exclusives to speak of save for Screamride and Ori and the Blind Forest. That's not to say that the PS4 has been outpacing Microsoft's console by much, but if the Xbox One is going to stand a chance of taking the lead this year, it's going to need to have a big E3.
According to Phil Spencer, that's exactly what Microsoft has in store.

Let's face it: Most people who buy GoPro cameras probably aren't leading the exciting lives that we see in GoPro's promotional videos. YouTube user Braziliandanny recently wore his GoPro all day while doing his incredibly boring office job and made a hilarious compilation video that shows just how boring day-to-day existence can really be.
