They often say that quality trumps quantity, but when it comes to mobile data, I'd argue that you may as well get as much as you can for your money.

Uber has ruled the ride-sharing roost since it launched in Australia six years ago but with public sentiment turning sour and the arrival of ride-sharing services like Taxify and Ola, is Uber still the cheapest way to get around? Let's take a look.

Facebook knows way too much about all of us, but it's not the only company hoarding everyone's private data. Google knows just as much about us as Facebook (if not more), and that should trouble you, even if that data hasn't been used as recklessly - at least, not that we know of.

Virtual private networks (VPNs) have many legitimate purposes. They're also used to cheekily circumvent geo-blocks on overseas sites like US Netflix - often against the express wishes of rights holders.

Google has never really had a great strategy for podcasts, leaving Android users to hunt for third-party apps to manage their subscriptions and play new episodes. (Apple's standalone Podcasts app isn't very good either, but at least it exists.) Now, it looks like the search giant finally has some semblance of a solution that should make it easier to listen to podcasts across your Google and Android devices.

Over the past few weeks, there's been a huge focus on paying attention to the apps you have connected to your Facebook account. While that's certainly a great idea, you shouldn't ignore another large company that you're also probably handing over a lot of your personal info to as well: Google.

One of the first things I did after my first job offer was call my parents. I ran through the pros and cons, expounded on how it would help my career and marveled at the thought that I'd somehow landed a full time job in journalism, with benefits and everything. It seemed too good to be true.

On April 16, Greens leader Richard Di Natale announced the Greens plan to legalise cannabis for adult use in Australia. Though the Therapeutic Goods Administration decriminalised supply and use of medicinal cannabis in 2016, recreational use is still illegal across the country. The Greens want to change that.

We've collated everything you need to know about legalising cannabis in Australia.

Before streaming, finding a good documentary meant either scouring the local video store or plundering the depths of YouTube. These days, we’re spoiled for choice. Netflix has a huge library of docos on-demand so it can be hard to differentiate between the good and the bad. But that's where we come in.

Here are some of the best.

At the end of 2016, we published a complete list of the Australian suburbs that were getting their internet upgraded to the NBN in 2017. At the end of 2017 - we didn't. We're jerks. But now, it's time to rectify that. The rollout continues in 2018, so read on to find out when your area will be getting connected.

More Australians are being connected to the NBN than ever before and with this new service comes... a few bumps in the road. Or, a lot of bumps. Okay, a really large bump.

According to multiple reports, Woolworths supermarkets around Australia are experiencing a technical issue that prevents them from processing any transactions.

After eleven days of competition, the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games drew to a close last night with what was supposed to be a celebration of the excellent achievements of its athletes and all its participants. Instead, it left a bitter taste in the mouths of (the very few) attendees, athletes and the 1.14 million people watching at home.

Telstra cops a lot of (hard-earned) crap for its antics, but in the last two years, the company has picked up its Netflix game compared to its competitors. Back in July 2016, Telstra was dead-last in the performance race. Now, it's topping the list, neck-and-neck with the likes of Exetel and Optus.
