Details have surfaced about one of the potentially key features of the next Apple Watch — sleep tracking. Bloomberg originally reported that Apple has been working on a sleep-tracking feature, and 9to5mac now details how the implementation could work.
The new feature would work on the next Apple Watch. The new device could be unveiled at Apple’s iPhone event next week or at a later event this fall. It’s unclear whether existing devices will also support the new feature.
You don’t need any extra hardware to enable sleep tracking — an Apple Watch strapped on your wrist is enough. When enabled, the Apple Watch will track your movements using the accelerometer. [MORE] |

One of the most common concerns of the New York City pedestrian is the mysterious water that sometimes drips onto your head. Is it rain? Air conditioner drippings? A rich person spitting on you from their penthouse apartment? Who can say for sure?
Still, as summer wanes and air conditioners are put away for the season, those random droppings happen less frequently. But there is another watery menace that New Yorkers are concerned with year-round: the mini-moats that mysteriously appears below your feet right when you’re stepping off a curb. This water is known, colloquially, as “puddles”; once you’ve lived in New York for a few years and stepped in about 10,000 of them, it’s impossible not to wonder what exactly lurks below their oily surfaces.

It is a truth universally acknowledged (by New Yorkers, anyway) that summer can be a particularly icky time to be in the city, what with the crowded subways, that smell that permeates the air, and the general sense of sweat-induced misery that blankets the city once temperatures start to rise.
But instead of sweating in your apartment, why not get out of town for a day or two? Thanks to our fair city's location—close to New England, New Jersey, the Hamptons, and the Hudson Valley and Catskills—there's a bevy of charming towns you can visit the next time you need a break from NYC.

Zao went viral in China this weekend for its realistic face-swapping videos, but after controversy about its user policy, WeChat restricted access to the app on its messaging platform.
Users can still upload videos they created with Zao to WeChat, but if they try to download the app or send an invite link to another WeChat user, a message is displayed that says “this web page has been reported multiple times and contains security risks. To maintain a safe online environment, access to this page has been blocked.”
Developed by a unit of Momo, one of China’s most popular dating apps, Zao creates videos that replace the faces of celebrities in scenes from popular movies, shows and music videos with a selfie uploaded by the user. [MORE] |

Facebook could soon start hiding the Like counter on News Feed posts to protect users’ from envy and dissuade them from self-censorship. Instagram is already testing this in 7 countries including Canada and Brazil, showing a post’s audience just a few names of mutual friends who’ve Liked it instead of the total number. The idea is to prevent users from destructively comparing themselves to others and possibly feeling inadequate if their posts don’t get as many Likes. It could also stop users from deleting posts they think aren’t getting enough Likes or not sharing in the first place. [MORE] |

New York City isn’t home to many traditional college campuses—those bastions of knowledge with stately buildings clustered around a rambling landscape that’s filled with students—but the colleges and universities of this city are home to plenty of beautiful buildings.
Among the city’s many institutes of higher learning are a bevy of beautiful buildings designed by notable architects, both old (Stanford White, George B. Post) and more contemporary (Marcel Breuer, Diller Scofidio + Renfro). Here, we’ve rounded up 11 of our favorite; and best of all, you don’t have to be a student to get a peek at many of these buildings. [MORE] |

Spotify this morning announced a new way for you to share music with friends (or fans, if you’re an artist) — by way of a new Facebook Stories integration that includes 15-second song previews. Viewers can also optionally tap on the “Play on Spotify” button in the Story to be redirected to the Spotify app to hear more.
The feature is designed largely with artists and their teams in mind, as it gives them another way to promote their new music across Facebook’s social network. Musicians and their managers often today use the Spotify app’s sharing feature to post their content across social media, including to Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp, and elsewhere. [MORE] |

Kid-friendly YouTube content now has its own website, youtubekids.com. The website will offer a similar experience to the existing YouTube Kids mobile app, where parents will be able to direct their child to videos that are age-appropriate, as well as track their child’s watch history and flag content missed by YouTube’s filters. At launch, the site won’t offer a sign-in option, but that will roll out at a later date, the company says.
The website’s imminent launch was quietly disclosed earlier this week by YouTube, and comes ahead of the official announcement of an FTC settlement which is said to include a multimillion-dollar penalty against the Google-owned video platform for its violations of U.S. children’s privacy laws, COPPA.

For his first official single since 2017, Sonny Moore (aka Skrillex) has linked with US rapper Ty Dolla $ign and his longtime production partner Boys Noize to create 'Midnight Hour'. The track is blending of sharp house and silky r'n'b, which is being hailed as "a departure for all involved."
This isn't the first time that Skrillex and Boys Noize have linked this year. Back at the start of June, the pair revived their Dog Blood project for the first time since 2013 to release the new four-track EP 'Turn Off The Lights'.
'Midnight Hour' follows the amped-up r'n'b single 'Would You Ever (feat. Poo Bear)' in Skrillex’s discography and the producer has given his fans every reason to expect more new material before the end of the year. [MORE] |
