That’s it, farmers. The Kraay Family Farm in Alberta, Canada, just set a new bar. Keep the hayrides and scarecrows, but don’t act like fall fun can’t get a 21st-century update. This corn maze, which covers an area of 15 acres total, has a 7-square-acre QR code right in the middle. You can scan it, […]

Facebook is testing two siblings for the Like button, marked Want and Collect. They are both for the benefit of online retailers, though chances are Facebook will wind up making some cash out of them. The two new buttons are part of a feature in development called Collections.

Mark Zuckerberg met with Dmitri Medvedev who is officially known as […]
This 12-minute short film (which includes the credits) is quite a creative masterpiece. Created using Blender, an open source 3D content creation suite and crowdfunded from the Blender Institute in Amsterdam, it’s quite a feast for the eyes. Without giving too much away, the story is centred on a man who is trying to make […]
