The white N4 reportedly has the same vibe as past white Nexus devices with a white back and black screen surround on the front. Although o...

Today at I/O, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, CNN, Elle, and Evernote pledged to support Glass by releasing official applications - "glassware," as Google calls them. Facebook's app is available now.

Google Field Trip Expands To 80+ Countries And 30+ Languages, Adds Automatic Translation
Field Trip is an oddity in Google's app lineup. It comes from Niantic Labs (the people who went on to create Ingress), looks fantastic, and it's made for a very specific kind of user. The app highlights attractions of historical, cultural, and entertainment value in your immediate area, using GPS and services like Thrillist, Zagat, and Cool Hunting to create a "hyperlocal" experience. Of course, any travel app is only good if it works where you are, which was a sticking point for internationa...

Simple And GoBank: A Closer Look At The Future Of Banking In The Cloud
Throughout the course of time, the US banking system has gone largely unchanged. There have been a variety of micro-evolutions – from cash to to check, check to debit, and the like – but the way we interact with banks has remained much the same. Many people take comfort in the fact that they can walk into a local branch and speak with someone should a problem arise, but therein also lies the problem with banking as we know it: physical branches. I'm not saying that brick-and-mortar banks are...
