Apple launches official Instagram account to promote #ShotoniPhone photos

Apple just launched its own @apple account on Instagram. This specific Apple account focuses on iPhone photographers’ photos. It seems like a logical thing to do, especially with Instagram being a hub for smartphone photographers to share their work. For now you can see albums that are actually video slideshows of the photographers’ work and a sound clip of him or her talking about their work. Apple is even asking other Instagram users to share their own stuff through the #ShotoniPhone hashtag. So, if you’ve been meaning to share your great iPhone-based work or just want to look at gorgeous shots, this Apple account might be worth the follow.

CBS All Access is coming to Canada next year

With the changing entertainment landscape, content creators and TV networks need to evolve with it. Even major networks have their own subscription services now. One of these is CBS’s All Access site, which the company started back in 2014 and lets users stream content the day after it airs. Now, CBS is expanding the availability of this service beyond the US and it’s making its way here in the “first half of 2018” with more countries to follow at a later date. The change comes as it supposedly sees rapid subscriber growth in its home country and sees a market for expansion. CBS estimates the service will garner four million subscribers by the end of the year.

As for what the sudden growth can be attributed to, it’s being attributed to the upcoming release of Star Trek: Discovery, which is coming to All Access next month and will be the first Star Trek show in 12 years. And while All Access isn’t going to be available this year, CraveTV has exclusive streaming rights for it here with broadcast on Space. International viewers can access the show on Netflix.

This web-based VR on Firefox will come to all Windows users that have HTC Vive or Oculus Rift headset.

It’s already available through Firefox’s pre-release version, Firefox Nightly, as well as limited availability in Servo, a browser engine built by individual developers and sponsored by Mozilla.

Aside from adding VR support, Firefox 55 will add a new tool called Firefox Screenshots. While still in beta when it comes out, this feature will automatically save your screenshots to the cloud and then copies these to your clipboard. These screenshots have an expiration date of two weeks unless you manually set it to last longer.
