Think streaming music, and the first name that springs to mind is probably Spotify — but there are some great alternatives out there. Both Apple and Google have music services for streaming, downloads, and playing local files across phones, tablets, and desktop.

Here's A New Preview Of What Disney's Star Wars Land Will Look Like 

We’re still years away from Star Wars Lands opening at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, and Disneyland in Anaheim, California. Construction is happening as you read this, and a new image gives us our best look yet at the insanity that awaits.

The Freaky Artificial Muscles On This Human Skeleton Are The Future Of Robotics 

Using pneumatic pistons and servos to power robots makes them fast and strong, but also bulky and extremely heavy. No one is going to mistake ATLAS for a real human being.

The Good Guys Is Using Airtasker For Installations 

Airtasker has teamed up with The Good Guys to launch a new app — an after-sales installation platform. 

Pokémon GO Just Made Augmented Reality Mainstream

There's A New Dwarf Planet Far Beyond Pluto's Orbit 

Say hello to 2015 RR245, a 700km-wide dwarf planet located approximately 12 billion kilometres from the sun. It takes 700 years to make a complete orbit, making it one of the most remote known objects in the entire solar system of significant size.
