YouTube tries out Explore tab feature for iPhone users

One of the newest features YouTube is trying out will bring a bit more variety to its users. But for now only one percent of its iOS users get to see this new Explore feature. This shows up as a tab at the bottom of the app’s home screen and temporarily takes the place of the Trending section (which is still accessible within the said Tab). The videos you will see here are based on what you’re watching but with a “broader scope.” As YouTube’s Director of product management Tom Leung said, “Explore is designed to help you be exposed to different kinds of topics, videos, or channels that you might not otherwise encounter but they’re still personalized—so they’re still based on your viewing activity.”

Report claims Microsoft is developing a low-cost, streaming-only Xbox

At the recent E3 conference, Microsoft announced its cloud gaming system, which is being called by a new report Scarlett Cloud. But it seems that isn’t the only big thing coming for Microsoft’s next-gen Xbox strategy. Thurrott.com reports the next Xbox will be coming in two versions. One is the traditional gaming console with games being processed locally, and the other will be a lower-powered system that will stream games from the cloud. The report says the console will still have some processing power to help counter any latency usually associated with streaming games and it’ll run part of the game locally but the rest will be streamed to the system. This streaming-based Xbox is being speculated to cost much lower but will make up its profits from the sales of games and online services.
