Why the YouTube of AR won’t be YouTube
A couple of years ago when I was working at Samsung, around the time the GearVR was being launched, there were lots of ideas flying around regarding the services to offer alongside the device. Many (most) of these ideas were related to hosting 360 Video content, and our boss David Eun (ex-YouTube) often reminded everyone that YouTube will be the YouTube of VR. He meant that the content on… Read More

Jimmy Fallon’s back behind the desk of The Tonight Show after taking time off to be with his family after the passing of his mother, Gloria. Fallon got incredibly emotional when sharing a particular memory of his mother on Monday night: the fact that she used to squeeze his hands three times to convey she loved him.
Mike DiCenzo, writer/producer for The Tonight Show, shared a bit of behind the scenes of the moment in a Twitter thread, explaining that the staff had no idea he would be sharing that story with the audienceDiCenzo also revealed that Taylor Swift, who was a surprise musical guest for the night, graciously joined the show after they asked her to “on a whim.” Read more…

Every time a Taylor Swift album is released, critics ask the same exhausting question — will this be the album where Taylor Swift gets political?
The answer is always the same: GirlNo.
Swift’s politics, best described as ¯\_(ツ)_/¯, have been the cause of an unending febrile pop culture battle ever since the artist first emerged a decade ago, reaching its apotheosis in 2017. If you’re interested in getting into a fight with a friend, might I suggest bringing up the topic of Swift’s feminism. Watch the unfollows commence.
Her latest album, reputation, is no exception. And it’s well past the time me and my fellow feminist friends face the facts. Swift will never, ever be the nasty woman of our left-to-neoliberal political dreams, and no amount of subtweeting will ever change that. Read more…

Taylor Swift has a grudge against streaming services. But there’s still one way to listen to reputation online legally without buying a copy.
iHeartRadio is streaming Swift’s new album—but only as part of a curated reputation radio station. AKA you can’t listen to the full album on demand, but you can listen to a radio station that plays Swift’s back catalogue with songs from the new album sprinkled in. It’s basically like any Taylor Swift Pandora station, but there’s a chance a song from reputation will appear.

“New Years Day,” the last song on Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated sixth studio album, reputation, is so good it makes me angry.
It’s soft and lithe and haunting and beautiful and a timely reminder that she is currently unparalleled among her pop star brethren in her ability to hone in on specific details – hand squeezes in the back of a taxi, glitter on the floor after an all-night party — and turn those lyrics into a memory you didn’t realize you had.
If only more of the album reached that high.
As anyone who spends time online is well aware, Swift has rebranded herself, leaning into her darker edges and trying to adjust a public persona that has struggled over the last year or so amid feuds and various bad PR cycles. Read more…
