Jul 06, 1:00PM
The Hero4 Session is the smallest GoPro yet. It’s a one and a half inch cube and weighs just 2.6 ounces. That’s about half the weight of an iPhone 6. And users will not need to lug around different cases to use the camera. It’s waterproof. This is part of the company’s efforts to reduce the amount of stuff needed to use a GoPro camera. The smaller size comes with… Read MoreSpoiler Alert App Makes Donating Surplus Food As Easy As Tossing It In A Dumpster
Jul 06, 12:20PM
Spoiler Alert is an app that wants to put itself out of business. That’s unlikely to happen considering the enormity of the problem—food waste—the startup is tackling.

Jul 06, 9:41AM
If you haven’t been following the Indie writing market I don’t blame you. It’s pretty crazy right now. After Amazon decided to tweak the royalties payouts to reflect how much readers actually read the books they downloaded as part of the Kindle Unlimited service writers have gone into an absolute tizzy over what’s fair and not fair and what it means to get paid for… Read MoreDesigner Turns A Konica Film Camera Into A Digital Shooter With 3D-Printed Parts

Jul 06, 7:26AM

Jul 06, 2:00AM

Read MoreUber Should Tell You Where To Get Picked Up
Jul 06, 1:29AM
One-way streets. Roads with nowhere to pull over. Forbidden U-turns. Sometimes your current location isn’t the most convenient place for Uber to pick you up. Walking 15 seconds around the corner or across the street to a better spot could cut five minutes off waiting to get picked up on or the journey. That’s why Uber, Lyft, and other car services should tell us where to get picked up. Read MoreA New, $250,000 Startup Competition For Berkeley Students Takes Shape
Jul 06, 12:24AM
Pejman Mar Ventures is just two years old, yet it has managed to make a name for itself among Stanford students, partly because its 5,000-square-foot offices are less than a mile from the school’s leafy campus and largely because the firm has made a concerted effort to bring Stanford students and alums into its community, including through a summer program that basically invites students… Read MoreNYC.TV Hopes To Bring The Spirit Of Public Access TV To The Web

Those local, non-commercial channels where you’d find weird stuff (and, sure, city council meetings) that made you think, “Wait, how is this even on TV?” Well, public access hasn’t gone away (heck, it’s become Stephen Colbert’s temporary home), but Kareem Ahmed, co-founder and CEO of a new video startup called NYC.TV argued… Read MorePersonal Health In The Digital Age
Jul 05, 10:00PM
We live in the digital age. You know that already. Two out of three Americans are now smartphone owners, and more than 86 percent of the population is connected online.

Jul 05, 7:31PM

Jul 05, 6:32PM
Silicon Valley breeds the kind of people that create computers that fit in the palm of our hands, electric cars that can go hundreds of miles on a single charge and plans to launch tiny satellites across the globe to bring everyone in the world Internet access.
