If you want a solid example that backs up the startup maxim “hardware is hard,” look no further than the cautionary tale of Goldee, a software startup that turned its attention to hardware and the connected home, only to have the situation go from bad to worse, and culminate in hurt feelings, permanently damaged code and a lot of backers who are left without anything to show for… Read MoreHome Maintenance Startup Happy Home Company Is Waiving Fees For Bay Area Residents With Storm Damage
Dec 16, 12:11AM
We’ve heard about startups that, intentionally or not, take advantage of bad weather and worse, so it’s nice when a new company actually offers to help out without making a profit. Last week, I wrote about The Happy Home Company, a startup that helps home owners manage their repairs and maintenance. Well, after the recent storms in the San Francisco Bay Area (which, yes, generated… Read MoreThe FiiV Case Straps A Hotspot And Battery To Your iPad

If you pick up a Wi-Fi iPad only to then find out you need wireless on the go all the time, your options for getting it access aren’t ideal.

Dec 15, 11:11PM
For the latest episode of Built in Brooklyn, we visited a locale that’s particularly close to my heart — a liquor store. That store, located in Brooklyn’s Dumbo neighborhood, is run by Mouth, a startup that sells food, alcohol, and “tasty gifts” from independent producers.

Dec 15, 11:00PM
Microsoft’s Sway, an online tool for creating presentation documents, is now generally available to the public. Previously, a waiting list was in place.

Dec 15, 9:32PM
Hang with startup kids long enough, and you’ll notice that they have their own language. No, bro, it’s a SaaS play in the on-demand food space. Think of it as the Uber for gluten-free Whole Foods delivery, ok? It never ends: We’re actively raising, but really want to make sure that we hit investor-board fit before product-market sync, you know? Read MoreHBO GO Finally Comes To Amazon Fire TV

Dec 15, 8:44PM
Your house is cold, but your thermostat is way over there. You could walk over to your thermostat and crank the heat, but pfft, walking. If you have a Nest, you could open up the app and control it that way, but, pfft, opening apps by hand. What is this, 2007?! Read MoreAsus ZenWatch Review
Dec 15, 8:22PM
Asus has entered the Android Wear fray, with a smartwatch that features a bold design, even though it opts for a rectangular face, and materials and looks that might make it the closest we’ve seen yet from the Android camp to resembling an Apple Watch. The ZenWatch is by no means a clone, however, and it very much manages to stand out from the Wear flock, too. Asus has crafted one of… Read MoreWith M&A In Mind, SurveyMonkey Snaps Up $250 Million More In Funding

Dec 15, 7:08PM
While this footage isn’t as exciting as I’d like it to be – I’d really prefer a big old gross close-up of a splayed knee joint – what it represents is pretty wonderful. Essentially, doctors at the Columbia University Medical Center have been able to print a knee meniscus using a degradable plastic scaffold and a protein growth system. The body then subsumes the… Read MoreKik Introduces Hashtags To Bring Mini Social Networks To Its Messaging Service
