CES 2018: All the cool new gadgets from day two

Yesterday was press day at CES, but now the show floor is open and the gadgets are spilling out all over the place. Here’s a rundown of some of the coolest new stuff to debut. Click here to see yesterday's roundup!


The Samsung press conference is always one of the biggest productions at CES. This year’s event was slightly dull compared to previous years. We got to see a smart car cockpit technology developed by Harman that's rather cool, and of course, there was a new Family Hub smart fridge with Samsung’s digital assistant Bixby built-in. There’s a definite theme this year of putting smart assistants into, well, everything, and trying to get excited about it.
One interesting new product called Flip is a digital white board meant to spice up office meetings. It's a $2,700, 55-inch display with which multiple users can interact at the same time. It's the kind of thing we could easily imagine working its way into classrooms down the road to compete with things like Smart Boards.

File storage service Google Drive is ending support for its desktop apps in March. But what exactly is changing, what will happen to your data, and most important, what do you need to do to get ready? We'll answer all those questions and more. Here's a rundown of Google's plans for its cloud-storage service, and how you should prepare for them. What won't change Don't be alarmed if you see headlines about Google killing off or deprecating Drive—it's one of the tech giant's core products, and it isn't going anywhere. That means the main Google Drive service and office suite, where you store files and work on documents, will remain in place. On the whole, you can carry on using Google Drive as usual, creating documents, spreadsheets, and presentations, streaming videos from the web, and uploading files from your computer via your web browser. You will still be able to open your web browser and access your data through the Drive website. Similarly, t...

Hurricane Ophelia is one extremely weird storm

Image
Hurricane Ophelia is an odd storm. It’s a picture-perfect hurricane with winds around 90 MPH, but that’s not the odd part, of course. What makes this storm weird is its location. It’s way out in the Atlantic, where it’s usually too cool for hurricanes to develop—much less survive. Ophelia is so far off the beaten path that instead of heading for the Americas (as so many storms have this season), the system will evolve and threaten Ireland and the United Kingdom early next week. Ophelia is our tenth consecutive hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean. The streak began with Hurricane Franklin in the middle of August and continued straight through three devastating landfalls in the span of a couple of weeks. We haven’t seen 10 hurricanes in a row in the Atlantic since the late 1800s, a testament to the tenacity and power of this overachieving hurricane season. Ophelia is our tenth consecutive hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean. The streak began with Hurricane Franklin in the middle of August a...
