Spotify might be entering the hardware space

Looks like Spotify doesn’t just want to stick with software. A new job listing on the company's website shows that they're looking to build "a category defining product akin to Pebble Watch, Amazon Echo, and Spectacles" designed to "affect the way the world experiences music and talk content." There isn't that much information about the device but based on the listing it will be internet connected and will come "directly from Spotify," meaning it won’t just be an integration with a third-party company.  

Aside from that, there seems to be another listing that shows Spotify wants to dabble into voice control. This will be handy for both software and hardware. Don't expect this to surface anytime soon, though. Especially since the hardware job listing even states that the person who fills the position will "define the product requirements."

There will be another ‘The X-Files’ season later this year

If you think last year’s comeback of The X-Files was lacking, then we have good news for you. Fox just announced that the hit sci-fi series is making another comeback at the latter part of 2017 with both David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson returning as FBI agents Mulder and Scully. The show’s creator Chris Carter will also be back as executive producer of the 10-episode season. The new season doesn’t have an exact premiere date yet so we’re staying tuned for that.

Microsoft Windows 10 Mail and Calendar will get Gmail support

When it comes to the more advanced features on Windows 10 Mail and Calendar, Microsoft is bringing Google users into its fold with its new update. The tech company is rolling out support first to Windows Insiders first. It won’t be coming in one fell swoop, too. If you’re excited to get support, you might or might not get it immediately.

The update will bring some important features to Google users, though. These include Focused Inbox, which automatically detects important emails from your inbox and shows you these first. Aside from that, users will also get travel reservation reminders and package tracking in the Calendar app. These features were previously limited to Outlook.com and Office 365 accounts. To get these features, though, you will need to sync your email, contacts, and calendars to Microsoft’s servers—in case you were concerned about this. But any changes you make to your Gmail account on Windows 10 and Calendar will sync with your Google account. So, if you’re looking for a viable desktop email client, Microsoft is making a case for that.
