What Is Reddit?
Sep 10, 5:00AM
Anyone who has ever scrolled a page on a website or clicked a link on the Internet or watched a video on YouTube or enjoys the practicality of living with electricity should know what Reddit is. But could you explain it to someone who's never heard of it? Is it the front page of the Internet as it claims? A chaotic community of circle jerkers that it can devolve into? Everything a newspaper should be? A wonderful time waster? Or somewhere in between all four? CGPGrey explains what Reddit exactly is. [CGPGrey]

The interchangeable-lens OM-D E-M1 is so much camera you won't believe it's mirroress. The E-M1 is the successor to 2010's E-5, the last Olympus camera with a mirror box and an optical viewfinder.

What If Spike Jonze's Movie Her Was Actually Voiced By Siri?
Sep 10, 2:00AM
So though the premise of a man falling in love with the voice of his phone's operating system is a little ridiculous, Spike Jonze's movie Her actually looks wonderful and maybe even believable. But duh! Who wouldn't fall in love with Scarlett Johansson's voice? Just hearing the huskiness makes you imagine the bombshell that is Scarlett Jo. So what if we replaced Johansson's voice with something more robotically realistic... like Siri's. Yeah, it would be pretty funny.

Paranoid MGMT Album Trailer Was Penned the Day After Snowden Reveal
Sep 10, 12:00AM
The trailer for MGMT's forthcoming self-titled record isn't the first piece of culture that's inspired by this summer's NSA revelations, but the nearly 7-minute video is probably the most ambitious yet. The concept is simple: A band rehearses while a the NSA monitors their every move. It's absolutely silly, and sadly, it's absolutely relevant, too.

Sep 09, 10:08PM
Many an armchair futurist seems absolutely convinced that Google Glass might soon render street crime obsolete.

The Human Powered Toy Helicopter That Never Needs Charging
Sep 09, 9:00PM
They're undeniably fun, but all remote control toys—particularly those that fly—have one very unfortunate downside in common: they all run out of power too quickly. Whether it's gas or batteries, they'll all be grounded before you're done having fun. But not this tiny flying propeller.

Is L.A. Too Spread Out to Be a Tech Center?
Sep 09, 7:40PM
New York Times tech writer Eilene Zimmerman did not come to Los Angeles to make friends, you guys. In her story and blog post about L.A.'s startup culture, Zimmerman manages to cram as many tired stereotypes as she can into a single sentence: "As a city, Los Angeles has been better known more for sprawl, gang violence and Botox than its tech start-up scene." Her point (and she does have one): L.A. has, like, too much traffic to have a real tech scene or anything, but, gosh darn it, these folks are trying!
