We already know Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak uses both iOS and Android devices, but this week we learned that the former evangelist who helped create the original "cult of Mac" has left iOS behind and gone all Android.

"I fell in love with Android on the smartphone, and then I got a Nexus 7 and started using Android on the tablet as well... To me the great irony is that Apple's slogan was 'Think Different,' but today if you think different you're looking at Android."… Read moreLeaked from today's 404 episode:

After restoring the suspended account of journalist Guy Adams this morning, Twitter issued an apology for its "mess-up," and says it will never do it again, the company wrote in a blog post.
"As I stated earlier, we do not proactively report or remove content on behalf of other users no matter who they are," according to the post.
