Motherboard is a celebration of the diversity and eclecticism of the culture that surrounds technology. Rather than squinting at technology through the lens of gizmos and gadgetry, Motherboard explores the ways it influences and affects music, art, design, film, gaming, sports, issues surrounding the environment, and everything else we find important.

So consider the floor open for group participation. It's simple: Get involved in an existing discussion, post your own related videos, write posts, comment, anything… you're now part of the Motherboard.

Google processes over 1 billion search requests every day, and in 2010, 65% of daily searches were conducted through Google. If there’s a single entity watching over us, it’s Google. But their latest ad year-in-review video doesn’t mention some of the fastest rising searches, perhaps because they’re too not-Google (Facebook, iPad) or too embarrassing (chatroulette). Bieber’s still in the video though.
