Higgle Lets Like-Minded Shoppers Name Their Price When They Buy Together
Jul 18, 9:51PM
Higgle is a recently launched website where consumers can set the price that they want to pa — in exchange, all they need to do is convince enough friends to join in. Higgle is both the name of the company and the term it uses for the discount offers that consumers can make to merchants on the site, combining haggling and bulk discounts, where merchants cut prices in exchange for selling… Read MoreCrunchWeek: Microsoft's Big Layoffs, Airbnb's New Logo Controversy, Yo Funding
Jul 18, 8:55PM
This week in tech news was a mixed bag: On the sad side, we saw thousands of layoffs from Microsoft. On the ridiculous side, we saw Airbnb debut a new brand logo that effectively served as a Rorschach test for everyone who saw it (and apparently a lot of people have dirty things on the brain.) And on the crazy side — or perhaps, crazy like a fox? — we saw Yo officially announce… Read MoreComments To The FCC Regarding Net Neutrality Slow As Deadline Approaches
Jul 18, 8:52PM
The Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) initial comment period regarding its notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) on net neutrality regulations ends in around seven hours.

Jul 18, 7:32PM
Each month since launch, the Xbox One has received an update meant to teach it a few new tricks. So far, these updates have primarily served to fix bugs, tweak the UI, and reintroduce things that were inexplicably absent after the jump from Xbox 360 to Xbox One — things like external HDD support, automatic account sign-in, and alerts when your friends sign in. Here’s… Read MoreLevi's Stadium, The New Home Of The San Francisco 49ers, Is Geek Heaven
Jul 18, 7:00PM
When the San Francisco 49ers take the field for their first preseason home game on August 17, fans will have a lot to cheer about. Not just because the team, which finished last year with a 12-4 record and made it into the NFC Championship game, is back — but also because they will be playing in a brand new stadium.

Jul 18, 6:01PM
All of Google’s properties will eventually bear a look inspired by ‘Material Design‘ and Android L, and Chrome OS is part of that sweeping visual overhaul, too. A new preview posted by Google “Happiness Evangelist” François Beaufort today (via 9to5Google) shows a very early design inspired by the card-style multitasking view that made an appearance in Android L,… Read MoreNew Search Engine Unmasks The Hackers
Jul 18, 5:31PM
Indexeus.net looks like it could have been a Y Combinator project. With a slick design, snappy copy, and a bitcoin-based payment system, it looks unusually legit. But what the site is hiding is the produce of hundreds of hacking efforts from around the web. I’ve left out the link because it’s unclear if the site may deliver malware now or in the future. You can type it in if… Read MoreMatterFab Launches To Make Metal 3D Printing Affordable
Jul 18, 5:00PM
Metal 3-D printers exist now, but they can be expensify to purchase.

Read MoreTubeMogul Surges 48% In Its Debut After Cutting Its IPO Price
Jul 18, 4:58PM
TubeMogul is having a strong first day of trading as a public company, rising nearly 50 percent in midday trading. The company went public for $7 per share, and is currently trading in the $10.30 range. The IPO, however, came with caveats. The $7 per share price was dramatically under its initially proposed pricing range of $11 to $13. And, to help get the thing out the door, prior investors… Read MoreThe Brandery Accelerator Launches Its Latest Class
Jul 18, 4:50PM
The Brandery, one of the top ten accelerator programs in the U.S., has accepted its latest clutch of startups, and they’re pretty interesting. The class included companies developing products ranging from a location-based iPhone app that’s looking to make Yelp hyperlocal on mobile devices, a company making a wearable device programming toolkit, to a water use sensor and mobile app… Read MoreIf You Are Lazy Or Incompetent, Unofficial Cardboard Offers A Perfect Google Cardboard Clone
Jul 18, 4:20PM
There’s nothing that rankles me like a chance to try out some cool new tech squandered – and that’s what happened at Google I/O this year. I managed to snag some face-on time with Google Cardboard, the surprise gift for attendees that consists of a simple folding cardboard harness for your Android device and some concave plastic, but my own unit went missing in the hazy fugue… Read MorePremium Not Freemium: iPad Game Monument Valley Passes 1M Downloads
Jul 18, 4:08PM
Going against the freemium gaming grain, Monument Valley, the sumptuously designed, premium priced iPad game which launched back in April and snagged its makers an Apple Design Award at this year’s WWDC, has now passed one million downloads, TechCrunch can reveal.

Jul 18, 3:43PM
With an abundance of music constantly in the palm of our hand, so too comes an abundance of portable Bluetooth speakers. The NudeAudio Super-M is the latest to join the herd, and the most recent product out of the portable speaker company. Originally, Nude sold a basic Bluetooth speaker in three sizes: small, medium, and large. The M, the medium-sized version, was the best seller by far and so… Read MoreGoogle To Stop Labelling Games With In-App Purchases Free In The EU, Apple Touts Its Controls

In response to concerns held by the European Commission, and a request from the EU regulatory body to offer changes around how apps that offer in-app purchases are sold, Google will cease calling apps that feature in-app transactions free by the end of September (via Engadget). The EU has also said that Apple has not provided any timeline for how it will address the same complaints, but has… Read MoreWhat Kindle Unlimited Means For Authors
Jul 18, 1:05PM
Now that Amazon has uncorked their Kindle Unlimited service I, like many indie authors, was curious. What does this mean for us withered scribes, scribbling away in our garrets and bobbing on the waves of Amazon’s massive literary marketplace? Will I get paid if I join Kindle Unlimited? How do I add my book to the mix? Will I become fabulously rich? Full disclosure: I’ve been… Read MoreUnbabel Raises $1.5M To Expand Translation Service, Grow Customer Base
Jul 18, 1:01PM
In the interconnected world, machines are too rigid in understanding the nuances in translating languages and humans are too slow for on-the-fly translation.
