Pair Eyewear is finally out, and is giving kids the opportunity to customize their glasses. No longer do kids have to wear only one type of style but now can change up their glasses to how they please. According to" Pair Eyewear, the Warby Parker for kids, launches today " by Jordon Crook of Techcrunch.com (October 25, 2017) it shows how with these new eyeglasses kids can purchase their glasses for the normal price they usually purchase glasses, then they can purchase new frames for their glasses for only $25. This gives kids the option to change how their glasses look without the need to purchase a new pare of glasses. This is a great idea for parents who have kids with glasses because, as kids grow their likes and preferences change and with their new coming beliefs they would want a change of style that matches their specific personality. So, instead of purchasing a new pair of glasses every-time they want a different style of glasses, that would cost around $400, they can purchase a new frame which would only cost $25. This is a great idea for both kids and adults because it is both cost efficient and allows kids and adults to be in style.

The iPhone 8 is a Complete Flop!

By Muhammad Abuzar

Apple's most recent iPhone has made fewer sales then analysts were expecting. A tech-head at bgr.com, named Zach Epstein, explains why people aren't flocking to the iPhone 8. In his October 18 post "One simple photo shows why Apple's iPhone X is so exciting", he explains that since the release date of the iPhone X is nearing, many are stalling for the next best smartphone to come out. Why waste your money on a piece of technology [iPhone 8] that will be outdated in a couple months, when you could just wait for the iPhone X? The newness of the phone is not the only reason why people are stalling for the iPhone X. Besides the new chipset, better camera, and new OLED display, the iPhone X comes with a new and innovative exterior design, which the iPhone 8 doesn't provide. This is significant because "it's the first redesigned iPhone the world has seen since 2014."

Imagine having your plans to go out with your friends ruined just because you didn't have someone who could drive or you couldn't call a taxi or a cab int time. Now, you don't have to worry anymore, self-driving cars are becoming more of a reality then ever with the new innovations made by apple. According to "Apples Project Titan Self-Driving Has A Lot Going On Up Top" by Darrell Etherington of Techcrunch.com (October 18, 2017) it shows how Apple solved the issue of not having enough space for all of the technology required to make self-driving cards a reality by putting computer parts and sensors on the roof. Since Apple has put its sensors on the roof instead of the trunk like most of the other companies, Apple has added a new spin to what we originally assumed what self-driving cars to be. Not only that but because of this, testing has become much easier than before and it would greatly improve the pace on the goal toward self-driving cars.
