It all started with a seemingly completely ordinary idea. The roommates in San Francisco could no longer afford to pay the rent, which by the way is incredibly high, and thought of remodeling the apartment so that they could rent it out to three more visitors. Inflatable bed and breakfast pillows might solve their housing problem for a while, they thought. Nine years later, the value of this idea is 25 billion US dollars.

A musician, athlete and horse lover by heart and profession. According to the sign of Aries, although I don't put anything on it. It just freaks me out when I get to the guitar store. I root for Roger Federer.
Bicycles are the preferred means of transportation anyway, especially in cities where sheet metal on four wheels tends to move slower than any moving body. Have you ever thought about an electric version of the bike? Users claim that they have many advantages. One of them is, let's say, that you don't come to work completely sweaty. This one just drinks water, right? Introducing the Turbo Vado 5.0 bike, which does not look like a normal bike of this type. Let's see why.
For teenagers, prom may even be the most exciting event, at least until they pass their driving test. Nice dress, modern hairstyle, (too) high heels, etc. they are necessary if they want to shine among their classmates.
The recreational equipment market is full of useful devices that can be used to measure heart rate, elapsed time, height difference and other categories that we pay attention to. Above all, they help us stay motivated, as we can constantly check how well we are doing. But there aren't many that have as attractive a look as the Misfit Flare activity wrist monitor.
When art and the public good collide, extraordinary stories are often written, and this one is one of those. Markets are nothing new in New York, but they haven't had anything like this before. The Swale, as it has been dubbed, is a vegetable garden on a transport vessel plying the waters of New York. It started its journey last summer, but this year it was presented in a new, improved image.
Air pollution appears more and more often on the agenda of TV reports, round tables and, after all, also in our conversations. It is a serious problem that especially large cities face, and the Dutch artist and innovator Daan Roosegaarde, who started the "Smog Free" project in 2014, is also aware of this. His first product, the Smog Free Tower, with which he installed the world's first air purifiers of this kind in Amsterdam in 2015, now has a sequel: a bicycle with a purifier.
2-in-1 notebooks are becoming increasingly popular due to their versatility and utility. Humans always strive for solutions that simplify our lives. Well, at least with technology, probably. Next month, HP, the world's largest technology company, will send the new HP Specter x2 to the shelves.
Snorkeling is becoming a more popular sport day by day, which really does not surprise anyone, as it allows us to be more in touch with nature, is suitable for almost everyone and is a good excuse for a trip. Many people even do yoga on the board, and it's only a matter of time before we remember which activity on the board. Until now, most sups were intended for one person only, but Supflex has now produced a giant board suitable for a larger company.
When great names join forces, great works are usually born. And nothing different happened with the new private plane Airbus A319neo, the interior of which was designed by the company Pagani, known for super sports cars. The interior was named Infinito and is currently on display in Geneva.
Hybrid laptops with which you can play games, write texts, use online tools and read e-books have not been new on the market for quite some time. In 2012, Microsoft introduced its first version of such a laptop called Surface. The last, most refined version, the Surface Pro, has retained the old name and mostly the appearance, but its 'engine' has been almost completely renewed.
We've all fantasized about how we'd spend our money if we won the lottery. We usually imagine a new house, a car, a longer trip, some even perhaps a yacht or other luxury toys. It's probably harder to imagine what we would do with 5 billion dollars, isn't it? This is as much as e.g. annually generated by the country of Mauritania. Well, that's how much they spent at Apple on their campus.
Do you consider your mood when choosing a movie to watch? Did you think that the movie you chose actually reflects how you feel right now? When we feel good in our own skin, when we feel that life is going well, we will choose a movie that will make us laugh. Films with heavier content, where injustice, despair, etc. appear. but we like to watch it when we feel that way ourselves, and here is a list of 8 movies for just such a mood.
