Tech: What you need to know in advertising today

Everything that you need to know in advertising today. Until a few years ago, brands had to shell out anywhere between $500,000 to $750,000 for an augmented reality lens on Snapchat. Now, they can pay teenagers to make them them for a fraction of the price. That's because instead of having to directly work with Snapchat — or getting their agencies to design AR lenses —brands such as Warner Bros Records, Deezer and Plato, have started enlisting teens to create these animated, computer-generated visuals. To read more about how brands are paying teens to make AR lenses, click here. In related news: Snapchat and other popular apps with maps were vandalized to label New York City as 'Jewtropolis.' The cause was vandalism of the mapping software from Mapbox, a third-party company that supplies mapping information to Snapchat, StreetEasy, and Citi Bike. Snap has tapped the Time Warner (now WarnerMedia) veteran Kristen O'Hara to become its vice president of U.S. globa...

Tech: 'Black Panther' star Chadwick Boseman confirmed Marvel wants a 'best picture' Oscar, not just one for 'popular film'

"Black Panther" star Chadwick Boseman confirmed that the movie will be campaigning for a best picture nomination at the 2019 Oscars, rather than the new "popular film" category. "Black Panther" star Chadwick Boseman confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that the movie will campaign for best picture at the Oscars, not the new "popular film" category.

Tech: Here's what all those numbers and letters in an Intel chip mean when you're buying a new computer

There's a lot more than the "Core i5" or the "Core i7." Let's break it down. Intel makes it pretty easy to tell performance models against lower-end models. You can usually tell straight away by the 3, 5, or 7 number after the "i" in "Core iX." But then there are those extra numbers and letters that usually come after the "Core iX" part, numbers which actually tell you a little more about the chip's performance, and ultimately the performance of the computer you're thinking of buying. Here's what those the numbers and letters mean in Intel's chips: You're most likely to see Intel's 'Core' line of processors, like 'Intel Core i3 8130U.' There are other lines of Intel processors, like 'Pentium,' but we're going to stick to the most common 'Core' line The number next to the 'i' after 'Core' represents the kind of overarchi...

Tech: The 10 worst movies of the summer, according to critics

The 2018 summer movie season delivered plenty of duds at movie theaters. Here are the 13 worst, based on Rotten Tomatoes critic scores. 2018 has been a great year for movies that has reinvigorated the box office. But every year comes with the obvious duds at the cinema, and this summer is no exception. That statement is especially true for August, which saw an unusually high number of movies that were torn apart by critics and bombed at the box office (thanks goodness for "Crazy Rich Asians"). This August was just a dumping ground for bad movies. We gathered the 10 worst movies of summer 2018 according to critics (six of which were released in August) and ranked them from bad to worst, based on this list from review-aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes. They range from a Melissa McCarthy R-rated puppet comedy to one of the worst-reviewed films of Mark Wahlberg's career. Below are the 10 worst movies of the summer, according to critics: 10.

Tech: I've used the iPhone 8 and the iPhone X — here's which one I'd recommend buying

Here's how Apple's newest flagship phones compare. Apple now sells three premium iPhone models for the first time in the product's history. So which should you buy? The iPhone 8? The 8 Plus? The X? I've used all three models extensively. Here's how they compare. The phones are powered by the same processor, so you won't notice a difference in speed or performance. They also run iOS 11, the latest version of Apple's iPhone operating system. (They'll also run iOS 12 when that's released this fall, likely in September.) They have wireless charging. But that's where the similarities end. The iPhone X has a brand-new design with a larger screen. The design of the iPhone 8 hasn't changed much since 2014. The iPhone X has a sharper screen that uses OLED technology. It's one of the best smartphone displays ever made. Source: DisplayMate The iPhone 8 has an LCD screen. It's still good, but not as good as the i...

PACT Consensus: 5 Things we learnt after Fela Durotoye defeated Kingsley Moghalu

These are the lessons we learnt after Fela Durotoye defeated Kingsley Moghalu to emerge PACT consensus candidate. On Thursday, August 30, 2018, presidential aspirants under the Presidential Aspirants Coming Together (PACT) umbrella, organised a vote among themselves to settle for a consensus candidate ahead of the 2019 elections.
