Mike Cheiky's science has gotten big name investors from Google to GE to put hundreds of milli*** of dollars into his ambitious startups. There's just one problem: his science doesn't quite pan out.
What does beautiful capitali** look like? Artist James Ferraro's new installation at MoMA PS1 tries to evoke how companies are capitalizing on lifestyles, and he's doing it through some of the most seemingly inane music imaginable: ringtones, hold music, and elevator music.
Samsung's Galaxy **artphones are wildly popular, but they've had a lot of critici** levied against them as well: they feel a little cheap, look a little ugly, and don't really pay attention to detail when it comes to software. But Samsung says that it's narrowed its focus for the new Galaxy S5 — so has it?
Silicon Valley may be the epicenter of exciting new technology, but app developer Readdle has managed to find success far from it. The company has been headquartered in Odessa, Ukraine since its founding, and even as conflict with Russia brews, it thinks staying outside the Valley can contribute to its success.
With Mayor Bill de Blasio now in office, New York City has been primed to ban the iconic horse-drawn carriages that have long offered tourists a romantic ride around Central Park. This week, opponents of the ban finally unveiled what they think should replace it: a historically-styled electric car.

We've long imagined that futuristic robots will have complex metal c***tructi*** that allow them to move and function just like humans, but that may not be what robotics has in store for us. Soft, lightweight robots could be the real future, and researchers at MIT gave us a glimpse of what that might look like.
Parents are being thrown in jail on child abuse charges after having their injured children diagnosed with shaken baby syndrome, but there's growing evidence that the diagnosis isn't always perfect — and there's even some evidence that it may be flat out wrong.
The Gear Fit is Samsung's first try at a wearable designed for fitness. It counts your steps, reads your heart rate, and even displays notificati*** from your phone. It looks good and tries to do just about everything you might want — but does it do any of it very well?
