Dole debuted this first edible wearable device at the Tokyo Marathon on February 22, 2015. It will measure a runner's heart rate and lap speed, tell when to eat and write motivational messages sent via Twitter. Where? On the shell. Bizarre? No, the Japanese.

Why are we still texting in 2015?

Why are we still sending SMS messages in 2015 is a completely appropriate question. Namely, with all the other options, it seems like a real dinosaur in the range of digital communication options. The first SMS was sent way back in 1992, and in 2010 as many as 80 percent of all mobile users used them. Then came smartphones, paving the way for email, instant messaging and apps. Despite more modern communication channels, SMS remains one of the primary channels. Why?

Will YouTube be paid after this?

Watching clips on the YouTube web portal will now be paid for. YouTube is introducing a monthly subscription, which is the result of a pilot project that has been running on certain channels since 2013 (UFC, National Geographic, PGA,...). The subscription should be modest, but in return the user received a much better user experience, which in translation means no more advertisements, which were scattered widely on the portal. How not, when every other internet user uses YouTube.

Although they have similar "facial" features (the One M9 is a little more watered down, as the case is slightly thicker) and the same "taste" for the case, the successor boasts more powerful hardware.

Mac-based graphic designers will especially enjoy Astropad applications. Which is most, since they are rare on PC. Well, graphics tablet manufacturers will be a little less happy about it, because it will eat away at their bread. Namely, Astropad, which has nothing to do with astrology, turns the iPad into a Retina display (extremely high resolution dots per inch) and gives it the properties of a graphics tablet.

Aston Martin transparent smartphone

Aston Martin is an automotive icon. But why stop at cars, when you can also offer the market a smartphone. This one has apparently definitively succeeded the high-end wheels with the signature of the luxury car brand. Let's just remember Porsche's (BlackBerry) and Lamborghini's. Aston Martin found an ally for the production of the concept with a transparent screen in Mobiad, which is known for prestigious smartphones, so it is almost a natural partnership.
