Casey Neistat and Beme are set to merge with CNN in 2017 following a multimillion dollar deal. Neistat, the indie YouTube success story, recently started a video-sharing app with the company Beme. Overall, the company brought in users, but like many applications, it experienced difficulty retaining attention with returning users. Neistat pivoted with that company to working out a large deal with CNN for a reported 25 million dollars. The Wall Street Journal also notes, 'as part of the acquisition, CNN will by summer of next year launch a standalone media company led by Mr. Neistat and Beme co-founder Matt

The healthcare industry continues to grow and build with the use of 3D printing and digital data integration. 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is more commonly known for printing objects with plastic-based molding. In 2014, the 3D-printing industry grew by 35.2%, and experienced a slight slowdown in 2015. The field has bounced back in 2016. The future is looking bright for the 3D technology industry. 3D Printing Industry reported: 'Starting in 2017, hospitals in Dubai will introduce 3D printers to prepare surgeons for medical procedures: according to a senior health officer in the country.'

India is working with Facebook to provide underdeveloped areas with access to the Internet. In early 2016, Facebook attempted to work out a partnership with India, but hit roadblocks with their crafty algorithms. Mashable reported: 'In January, India’s telecoms regulator rejected Facebook’s Free Basics program after more than a million people registered complaints abut the plan, which would have given free access to specific websites chosen by Facebook.' After digging into Free Basics by Facebook developers, I was able to find out that companies and individuals have to request to be apart of this new service. It also let

Cyber Monday has become another day within the holiday season. Today is known for large retailers marking down products for online shopping. Gift giving during the holidays is a tradition in many cultures. In comparison to buying a product, or service for a loved one this year, try using some creative energy to put together a gift. Over the years, I've given and received a lot of gifts. Some of the gifts that stand out is a used book from a friend that has passed away, a coupon for a pair of glasses, and the time that friends and

An Introspective Glance at Startup Culture on Small Business Saturday

Small Business Saturday follows the madness from Black Friday each year by inviting consumers away from the big box stores, and down to Main Street to help spur and drive the local economy. Yesterday was also Record Store Day Black Friday, which is an annual event that provides local, independent record stores with limited released vinyl to bring in shoppers. This initiative creates a large buzz for indie record stores. What Small Business Saturday is missing from their annual event is driving force that will draw in crowds. The element that Record Store Day has benefited from is the communication

The Standing Rock Native American Reservation has Become the Epicenter of the Environment

By |November 26th, 2016|Categories: Clean Energy, Economy, Environment, Featured, Health, National News, Politics, United States, YouTube|Tags: , , , , , |

The Army Corps of Engineers sent a letter on Friday to the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe explaining that the violent confrontations have taken place, and they are shutting down the campgrounds, (area north of the Cannonball River, including the Oceti Sakowin camp). After December 5, protestors will be cited and charged with trespassing if still on the land. The trespassing citation is just a way for government to try and clear some of the land for the oil companies to dig under the Missouri River. According to standingrock.org, the website notes that: 'The tribe maintains jurisdiction on all reservation
