Between the anniversary of 9/11, the attacks on U.S. embassies in the
Middle East and the political sparring match that ensued, it was a
tumultuous week. At least the weather was nice, right?
It was an incredibly busy week in the tech world, so you may have
missed some important stuff if you weren’t paying close attention. Apple
announced the impending release of the iPhone 5, a new version of
iTunes, upgrades to the iPod Touch and Nano lines and even a redesign of
the now-iconic earbuds.
Feeling overwhelmed? Fear not because even if you didn’t have time to follow along, we were all over it.
This recap includes everything you need to know about those new Apple
products, along with some outside-the-box suggestions for what to do
with your old iPhone if you choose to upgrade.
Although it was a tech-heavy week, that’s not all we covered. New
fields of study are emerging in this increasingly digital world, so we
found 10 college courses that didn’t exist 20 years ago. And although
it’s not a college course, you might finally be able to beat your movie
buff friends and family in that Kevin Bacon game, thanks to a new Google
search tool.
Check out this week’s features roundup.
