MSN rolls out revamped homepage

After spending just a few weeks in preview mode, Microsoft has rolled out the redesigned MSN homepage to all users. It should show up in your browser in the next couple of days. If you want to view it on your Windows Phone, the updated Bing and MSN apps also draw from the site’s services, such as Food & Drinks and Health and Fitness app. Food & Drinks will keep tabs on your recipes and Health and Fitness will show pedometer stats (if you are using Lumia 630, 635, or 1520, that is).

Pebble Watch gets $50 discount and some new functionality for sleep tracking

Anyone on the fence about the Pebble watch or the Pebble Steel will be happy to know that the cross-platform devices are now available for $50.00 less. As an added bonus, there's also new functionality for background tracking for fitness and sleep. This should make the devices even more enticing. Pebble is the company that really put wearables and smartwatches on the map and while the hardware has remained unchanged since release, there have been constant software updates making the watch even smarter. This means the classic Pebbles sell for US $99.00 and the Steel sell for $199.99.

Pebble's appstore features over 4,000 applications. There are also more than 18,000 developers on the Pebble platform. Is the pricing good for you?
