Your most burning tech questions answered

Listen to this article

Walk around your office.

Or maybe just look in your hand. It's likely you are surrounded by individuals with cracked phone screens. Not surprising, the No. 1 tech-related query for individuals with IP addresses in South Carolina is: Fix phone screen.

Is this indicative of our clumsy, non-screen protected nature in the Palmetto State or an entrepreneurial opportunity? Either way, we're not alone. It's one of the most Googled inquiries across the U.S., along with how to speed up mobile devices and whether rice is really a good thing to use when you've dropped your phone in a "bucket" of water … ahem.

The list of tech questions comes from an analysis by Highspeed Internet, which is a data analytics company that provides intel on different service providers to help consumers and businesses make decisions about ISPs.

You can peruse the list yourself above, but it's clear that we struggle with the performance and operation of our mobile devices across the country. Our favorite question comes from Florida, where people most often ask how to turn their computer on and off. (Hey, it used to be programming VCRs!) Everyone needs tech support on occasion. At least they're not calling you in South Carolina … not that you could see who was calling anyway, with your cracked screen.

Get that fixed.
