Play the piano on the MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar with this app

A new app made by developer Graham Parks adds a bit of whimsy to the MacBook Pro’s Touch Bar. Called Touch Bar Piano, the app turns the MacBook Pro Touch Bar into a small touch-based piano. It’s completely polyphonic and offers 128 instruments for you to make music with. If you don’t have a MacBook Pro but want to play around with it, the app works with emulator Touché. You can download the app from his site.

The first Spider-Man: Homecoming trailer is finally here

The trailer for Spider-Man: Homecoming is finally out and it looks very promising. We get a good dose of Tom Holland doing his Peter Parker/ Spider-Man bit, we get some Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Star and as Iron Man plus a sinister Michael Keaton as The Vulture.

Google adds user’s TV and movie ratings to Search

If you use Google Search on a desktop browser and you input a particular movie or TV show, Google seems to have integrated users’s ratings into the mix. It’s not showing up for us yet but as Android Police reports it seems to be showing up for some users on the web browser version (it doesn’t seem to be up on mobile either at the moment). Now, there’s thumbs up and thumbs down icon (which can reflect your own verdict) that shows up before the IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes ratings. You can also see a cumulative rating from Google users about the particular show or movie. We’re kind of hoping Google incentivizes users to “like” or “dislike” movies and TV shows so the system can suggest things you might want to watch.
