What’s App, Doc? Your One Destination for the Latest Technology News and Reviews

Technology.

Name one aspect of our lives currently not affected by technology, and odds are that ten or twenty years into the future, Apple will still be saying “there’s an app for that” (assuming there isn’t one already).

We may not be driving flying cars like in The Jetsons, but let’s face it – with Virgin Airlines soon able to fly us into space as easily as Qantas can fly us from Sydney to the Gold Coast (assuming Qantas aren’t having engine problems) – we’re not far from it.

Technology has changed virtually every aspect of our lives. Just look at the way we shop nowadays. From making awkward small-talk with the person behind the cash register, to self-service machines, to buying things online via the Internet at home on your computer, to buying things online via your smartphone in the palm of your hand wherever you are, even the experience of a shopping spree has evolved due to advances in technology.

But with so many advances in technology, how do we make sense of them all? Is it really worth upgrading my iPhone 4S to the iPhone 5? Should I buy a PS3 or wait for the PS4? What’s the best Ultrabook to buy? Why did KStew cheat on RPattz?

We’re here to help you answer all of those questions, and more (except for that last one). Here on What’s App Doc?, you’ll find reviews of the latest tech, comparisons between the best gadgets currently on the market, and discussions (read: rumours) about upcoming products that are yet to be released.

We've decided on a Matrix-style binary code image for the background since it had a technological/science-fictional vibe to it. For the colour scheme, we decided on a light blue font against a dark background so the text would be easy to read, and had bright blue, pink and purple headings to add some colour to the blog. In terms of the layout, we wanted to keep things simple so it would be easy for readers to navigate their way through the blog. We had the logo at the top of the page, and underneath the logo, we had all of the blog posts on the left, and the gadgets on the right, including the blog roll, a search box, links to share the blog on Facebook and Twitter, and a couple of polls.

As for the Bugs Bunny logo, who wouldn't you want Bugs Bunny as the symbol for their blog?

Keep watching this space for more awesome posts. You never know – soon there might even be an app for us in the future!
