So, anyone want to work at Allure Media across Kotaku, Gizmodo and Lifehacker? We’re looking for someone to cover the weekend shift on our technology sites – if that sounds like something you think you could do then let us know! More »
Nowadays TVs are doing more than ever before. Panasonic and Samsung have both announced that their future televisions will feature “app stores” built in, stores which include… video games.

I came across this new iPhone game during my daily browse through Gizmodo, and immediately found myself scrambling for my wife’s credit card details so I could buy it.

Today is the last day to enter Gizmodo’s ridiculous Gizmod Rukus competition. In case you haven’t heard the chaps over at Giz are giving away a completely modded out car, featuring all manner of gadgetery. Even if you’ve entered before, the competition rules allow one new entry per day so, as the Wu-tang Clan once eloquently stated in their debut album, we recommend that you “bring the motherf***ing Rukus” and enter this comp!
