Google continues to add more and more titles to its Google Play and YouTube rentals movie libraries. After striking deals with five of the major film studios, the newest one to join the fun is Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) which will be adding more than 600 titles to the Google movie libraries. Less than two weeks ago, we told you about the  Google-Paramount deal , which brought nearly 500 new titles to the rental library. Together with movie companies such as Sony Pictures, Universal, Disney, and other smaller studios, Google Play now includes thousands of movies to choose from. MGM, which are famous for their roaring lion movie intro, are responsible for many older and newer classics such as “Rain Man”, “Robocop”, “West Side Story” and “Thelma & Louise”, all of which users will now be able to rent through Google Play or YouTube. In addition to these 600 titles, MGM will rolling out more titles in the weeks ahead. Movies on Google Play cost between $1.99 to $3.99 to rent, a

Is Draw Something getting kind of boring? Cheer up, a new update is available! The immensely popular game has just received an update on both  iOS  and  Android , which brings to the game some new, much-needed features such as social sharing, comments and an undo button. If you’ve managed to miss it, Draw Something is a smash hit game which resembles Pictionary, in which opponents have to create drawings of words for the other player to guess. The game has become very popular in both the iTunes App Store and Google Play, which brought on the recent acquisition of its developer, OMGPOP, by Zynga. So what’s new in Draw Something? To start, you can now add comments to your drawings after finishing them and before sending them. You can also add comments to your opponents drawings after guessing. If you were in the habit of taking a screenshot of your masterpiece to share on Facebook on Twitter, that option is now also built in, as well as the option to save your drawing to your ph

No matter what most Americans might have to say,  soccer is still the most popular sport in the world. With popular sports come popular games, especially for mobile devices. But before you go out into the Play Store and look at the rather large selection of soccer games, which ones are worth trying out? Why not try out Pocket Soccer for your  Android  device? About Pocket Soccer Pocket Soccer is a fun, easy-to-understand game that allows you to pick the country you’d like to play as and face off against the world. It’s not quite like a game you might expect with a full-fledged gaming console, as the game has a slight ping pong feel, but I’ll talk more about that later. In any case, it’s very fun to play and has plenty of features to test your skills and kill some time. Installation You can install this game by searching for Pocket Soccer in the Play Store or by following  this link  with your device’s browser. Once installation completes, you can go ahead by launching the ga

Move any Windows program to another hard drive, without breaking the program. If your primary hard drive is full, and what you’ve put on there is software, SymMover is what you’re looking for. Many people add a second hard drive to their computer when the first one fills up. Moving files – such as music, videos or photos – is a simple matter. Moving software, at least on a  Windows  system, isn’t. Any attempt to manually move the folder containing the software will almost certainly result in software that no longer works. SymMover solves this problem by moving the software, then using  symbolic links  to fool Windows into thinking your software is still located where it should be. And it’s not just for software – you can change the actual location of  any folder  without Windows noticing, making this a great tool for saving space on your drive. SymMover only works on Windows Vista and Windows 7. Windows XP and 8 users are out of luck, at least for now. It also won’t work if yo

A while ago I told you about  MyPermissions , a simple yet useful website that helps you clean up multiple app permissions in just a few minutes. MyPermissions is so useful, it inspired people to create similar tools, each making it easier to accomplish a different task. One of the tools inspired by MyPermissions is the highly useful  Notification Control , which Joshua has already told you about. The same guys behind Notification Control have now come up with another incredible service, Bliss Control , which is an expansion of Notification Control, and true to its name, is total bliss. What Is Bliss Control? MyPermissions, as mentioned earlier, helps you quickly clear up unnecessary app permissions. Notification Control, in its turn, helps you get rid of pesky email notifications from multiple services, and its sibling, Bliss Control, helps you control and change settings on multiple services, all from one place. What does this mean? Let’s say you got home today, and deci

It’s amazing how even the most organised individuals, that is those who regularly back up documents and always plan ahead for future engagements, can occasionally find themselves up that notorious creek without a paddle. Take for instance when someone loses their phone. Not enough people have prepared themselves for this. The best applications to help you find or wipe your phone need to be installed in advance. There is at least one notable exception, which could well save your phone. Plan B is the application to install when your phone is already missing. However, if you’re really going to get prepared for that lost phone scenario you might like to install a few other great applications too. Plan B Plan B  is the perfect application to use when your phone is already missing and you realise you never installed any of the nifty apps which would have helped you find your phone. You can install it remotely by going to the Android market and it will use GPS or an SMS to find you

One of the most popular programs for compressing and decompressing files is WinZip. It has been around since I first started using computers, and I can still remember the first time I downloaded something that was “zipped” and trying to figure out what the heck I was supposed to do to actually use the file. Of course, times have changed, and pretty much everyone knows how to use some type of file decompression program to get access to the files tucked inside. However, looking at zipped files on the iPhone, things are not always so easy. However, WinZip recently launched an iOs application that is designed to make viewing the contents of a compressed file so much easier. It takes what used to be a cumbersome process and makes it so easy that anyone can do it. If you have been looking for a way to view the contents of compressed files while on the go, the WinZip application will be perfect for you. Set Up Seeing as this is an iPhone application, you will need to head over to the
