Iterate and update. That's the mantra of the smartphone world these days. Where radical design changes between generations of phones might have been commonplace just a year or so ago, most manufacturers are sticking with designs that work and iterating on them with each generation.

Ever since a leaked image showed off dual cameras on HTC's next One (aka the M8), the rumor mill has been trying to figure out what they're for, exactly. Now, an ad from Australian carrier Telstra leaked to GSM Arena appears to have removed any mystery. According to the copy, the "Duo Camera" will bring improved low-light capabilities and let you select the focus of a shot after it's been taken, in a similar way to the Lytro camera. You'll also be able to highlight significant areas of a shot, soften the background and add 3D effects. The phone is called the "All New HTC One (M8)," in the ad, likely to distinguish it from the last version. It also revealed a full HD 5-inch scratch-resistant screen, a step up from last year's 4.7-inch One, along with dual "BoomSound" speakers. Finally, it showed the latest Sense 6.0 version that'll let you double tap the screen to turn on the phone and swipe to access apps and social info. After all that, if there's anything left to learn, we'll find out in exactly two weeks.

You are what you tweet, Twitter data tells us.
Based the usage of different words and phrases in 2013 by day of the week and the month, analysts at Twitter have us all figured out. They can tell when we're happy, depressed, hungover, or even late for work.
Analysts shared their findings on the Twitter blog:
People are most likely to tweet ‘feeling sad’ on a Sunday in December or a Monday in October. Conversely, they are more likely to be ‘feeling happy’ on a Tuesday in December or a Tuesday in January — that was New Year’s Eve last year, which may explain it.
Running ‘late for work’? That is most common in mid-week in July and Fridays in January.
Sundays in March as well as Thursdays and Fridays in November are the days which see the most Tweets using the word "hangover."

Excuse the portrait mode video but this golf trick shot is so impressive that we can ignore the blatant disregard of proper cell phone video recording etiquette. Here's what goes down: the guy behind hits a golf ball to the guy in front who swings and hits the same ball without the ball ever touching the ground. It's like the golf equivalent of an alley oop dunk. Perfect timing, perfect execution, perfectly in sync.
