It’s the end of the year and so time for Google to attempt  to sum the entire 12 month passage of time with a “most viewed” list from YouTube. I say list. I actually mean lists, as they have managed to categorize them and show the breadth of content that it’s users create.

4th on the list of UK viewed videos? Nyan Cat. Top in Food? Epic Meal Time. Tech Reviews? Dominated by the iPhone 5. Which doesn’t exist.

Globally most watched video on YouTube? I blame everyone for this…

The full list of lists and the list contents of the lists is after the jump. For the lists.

Satsports and Holux have unveiled the All Sports GPS, an Android based GPS with the capability to use WiFi.

This makes it the first on the market based on Google’s mobile OS, and the first that allows for map and software updates without relying on the phone network nor being connected to a PC. And all for around £200-ish RRP.

It’s also rugged, has Bluetooth and allows for you to download apps from the Android Market to supplement the existing app suite that is included, including Satsport’s Satski. Their most recent version of Satski now features Facebook and Twitter integration, just in case you felt the need to update your status whilst on top of a mountain. As you do.

GlacialTech have announced two new cooling pads for laptops: The SnowPad N1 and the SnowPad H2. Both are USB powered and draw air away from the base to prevent overheating.

I’m sure you’ve read the rumblings from worried scientists whom claim that laptops can affect men in a fairly unsavoury way, although that has been shown to be nothing to worry about. Still, it’s an ideal gift for people that suddenly felt panicky after reading the initial news reports, or those with stupidly hot laptops that singe their thighs.

Still, not a bad idea if you use your laptop on a desk either.

I doubt that it will help if you have, I dunno, the Madden’s NFL app or Angry Birds…

…Oh, it does? Great. You can preorder it via Power-Skin.com and save $10 off the $99.99 price.
