Get A Sense Of How Dire Shark Finning Is From This Visual Represenation

One thing infographics are really good for is providing a sense of scale. Certain numbers are just too big to really comprehend, and can also be made to sound bigger or smaller than they actually are depending on how they're presented. As Shark Week comes to a close, it seems apt to take shark finning as an example.

This Stunning Spiral Galaxy Is Out There Right Now

No matter how wry your sense of humor or how pessimistic your outlook, you have to give into your human capacity for awe at some point. And it might as well be now because this photo is amazing. The spiral galaxy, M74, consists of about 100 billion stars and is 32 million light-years away if you're headed toward Pisces. And I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we wish we were.

Use Loop To Animate The World

I'm really bad at drawing. Really really really bad. Like hand turkeys and stick figures level. But Loop might be a way to bring me up a little bit. It's an iPad app for making hand-drawn animations, but you can use it with guides like other drawings or photos for tracing. Basically there are a bunch of different ways to get going, which is what I need.

50,000 Stills Of Times Square Are Almost As Chaotic As Real Life

Aug 11, 7:37PM

If you live in New York you know how unbelievably frustrating it is to try to walk through Times Square when you have somewhere to be. Peeps be all up in your way. If you don't live in New York, you're either part of the problem when you visit or you just generally know to move to the side when you're looking at a map/smartphone/landmark. Regardless, all of us contribute to the madness in that tiny space and Drew Geraci from District 7 Media has captured it beautifully.

Which Kitchen Appliances Should Wise Up?

Which Kitchen Appliances Should Wise Up?

If you think about it, meals are kind of absurd because they have to happen every day. I love eating and I really love cooking, but three or more times a day every day? That just seems like a lot. Yet somehow it happens, because we need to sustain ourselves. Or whatever. Giz posts a lot of awesome and/or hilarious kitchen gadgets to help things along, but I'm wondering which appliances in your kitchen would be more useful if they were "smart." What would you want from a sensor-laden, wifi-enabled stove? Could a fridge with an onboard computer change your life? Or is everything fine the way it is? Dice and chop below.

The Origin And Power Of Life Flows In This Ceiling

Reduce A Steel Box To A Pathetic Lump With Slingshot Bullets

Aug 11, 4:03PM

Joerg puts his equipment through a lot of abuse to film videos for the slingshot channel. And the catchbox he shoots into has borne the brunt of all that mayhem for three years. But it's probably been so gradual that no one really noticed. And then in a moment of clarity Joerg clearly realized that his catch box had evolved into a piece of useless nothing. Time for the junkyard.

Hyperloop: Everything We Think We Know About the Future of Transit

On Monday, Tesla Motors chief Elon Musk will finally reveal his concept for a high-speed transit system called Hyperloop. The Hyperloop, according to Musk, will be able to whisk you from downtown Los Angeles to downtown San Francisco in roughly the time it takes to watch an episode of Veep. He's been intentionally vague about details—but that doesn't mean we can't make some educated guesses about how he's going to pull this off.

Does Seltzer Hydrate You Or Leave You High And Dry?

Aug 11, 1:12PM

People are greedy. We just are. What we want is all the content. All the content streaming to our Chromecasts.

Aug 10, 11:08PM

If you're like me, you've blocked out most of the Top 40 pop rock you secretly liked as a kid of the 1990s—think Sophie B. Hawkins and Sheryl Crow. But in the capable hands of Haim, Crow's crooning 1995 song, Strong Enough, is kind of hard to resist.
