Even though this video has already has over 4.5 million views, I feel compelled to share it. I was blown away by the graphs shown.
The world isn’t quite what it seems.
Gabe wrote a sweet review of Groove for iOS, a music player designed to be a different way to experience your library of tracks on iPhone or iPad. If music is something you enjoy, you might want to check the review out.
Groove is certainly miles away from iOS’s default music app, and as I’m a bit of a music nut, I bought it and am enjoying it.
It hasn’t replaced the Music app in iOS for me (I still use it for pre-made playlists), but it’s a nice addition when I want to be surprised. I consider Groove the iOS equivalent of a “Genius” style feature, wrapped up as an app. And, as that, it rocks.
Now this is a website I can truly get behind. Animated GIFs are awesome, but I’ve never known where to search a great selection. That’s now changed.
Bookmarked (in my bookmarks bar, no less) for future use.
I’ve been a big fan of James May for years, but until today I had no idea about this fantastic story. If anything, it heightens my respect for him.
This car is one of the most impressively aggressive pieces of engineering I’ve seen and I’m so blown away by it that I feel compelled to share.
The Aventador is my favourite supercar — and this Veneno concept takes elements from it and cranks them up to eleven.
That’s the linkbait-esque headline for this interesting infographic, comparing Apple and Samsung. No new data here, but an interesting look at the two companies.
Do I think Apple has anything to be worried about? Not really.
It’s worth reading this Lifehacker piece just to discover Autograph. PopClip is pretty awesome, too. You can read on for that.
I reviewed FX Photo Studio for Mac over at The Industry. Since the review was published, I’ve been using the Pro version, too. I’ve found the Pro version to have better performance and I’ve enjoyed the extra image adjustments available.
If you’d like a pretty great image editor for Mac, read on.
(Really.)
Powerful stuff:
We believe that this special webpage carries strong philosophical, symbolic, and aesthetic attributes.
Interestingly, the page loads pretty fast.
I pull no punches in this article for The Industry.
Never found a flashlight app you really love? Read this and that’ll change.
Spencer Ackerman writes a pretty great article showing how Muslim terrorism is barely a thing anymore:
Only 14 people out of a population of millions were indicted for their involvement in violent terrorist plots in 2012, a decline from 2011′s 21. The plots themselves hit the single digits last year.
That shocked me. Sometimes data really can knock you sideways. But why do we always hear so much about terrorism in the news?
Spencer continues:
Since 9/11, Kurzman and his team tallies, 33 Americans have died as a result of terrorism launched by their Muslim neighbors. During that period, 180,000 Americans were murdered for reasons unrelated to terrorism. In just the past year, the mass shootings that have captivated America’s attention killed 66 Americans, “twice as many fatalities as from Muslim-American terrorism in all 11 years since 9/11,” notes Kurzman’s team.
Looks like the US really has its priorities in the wrong order.
