It's an explosion of news this week and none of it is coming from the same place! iOS7 is making Apple fans upset but is popular among Android users. Patent trolls say that being called a patent troll is a hate crime. Charles Carreon thinks that maybe egging the entire internet was a bad idea. Dogs and cats living together; mass hysteria.
It's been . . . quite a week.
