If you’ve been laid off recently or simply love learning, then you may be looking to pick up a new skill quickly. In the past that would probably mean you’d need to enroll in some classes at a college or university.
The Internet is now home to several online learning websites that (in some cases) can be better than college.
Android users can now have important documents signed on their devices with DocuSign Ink for Android.
You don’t need to rely on a printer or fax machine or even a scanner. Users can now safely and securely drag and drop their signature and initials onto any document.
With Facebook quickly approaching nearly 1 billion users and the increase in new web applications like Spotify and Foodily, the famous “Like” button is in dire need of some siblings.
And we’re not talking about the “dis-like” button.
Facebook has announced that more than 60 new apps are going live. These apps will be apart of the Open Graph allowing people to tell their stories and add things they love to their timeline.
Since Google Launched their new social network Google Plus and integrated it with search using Search Plus Your World, there has been a lot of talk about Google being biased and only showing G+ profiles for searches like “food” or “music.”
Try this: search for music, movies, or photography by using these exact terms. You will see that Google recommends Google+ profiles that you should visit in the right column.
The problem is, most of these accounts are not kept updated as often as Twitter or Facebook.
Way back in 2009 a wonderful human being named Casey Pugh decided to remake the original Star Wars film in 15 second chunks. Oh and each chunk would be made by a different amateur film maker. It all came together via the internet to make this wonderful movie you see before you. I hope you have two hours to kill.
Shout out to Crunchyroll for being where I found out about this.

In 2007 Youtube began keeping track of how many hours of video were uploaded every minute. Back then, six hours of video was uploaded every single minute. In 2010, that number increased to around 48.
Today, Google has announced that every minute, 60 hours of video is uploaded to Youtube. That’s one hour of video every second!
Previously Google created charts and infofraphics to illustrate the data usage on Youtube’s servers and to showcase this mind-boggling engagement. But because of the the latest growth, they decided to launch onehourpersecond.com.
Hey, Neighbor! is a new social network that wants to help you build relationships with the people that live around you.
It’s narrow focus on neighborhoods and apartment complexes makes it stand out from the crowd. The sole purpose is to enrich your real world interactions with your neighbors in an age where we rarely interact with the people that live closest to us.

That’s right we said draw your own music. Gliss is an iOS app that makes it easy for anyone to create their own music by drawing on the screen.
Gliss has a user interface reminiscent of Microsoft Paint and lets you draw with your finger to make music. From the developer:
“Gliss lets you play sound files and mix them easily by drawing on your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch. With gliss you can load your sounds and draw them on the gliss sequencer in a quick, intuitive way that lets you make music on the fly. Play your mix using a tempo or scrub through by tilting your iPhone.”
For some reason it brought back memories of playing with Mario Paint’s music making feature on the SNES for me *nostalgia*.
