Enjoy ’Everything Now Live’ on Apple Music right now!

If you’re like me, you’ve been anxiously awaiting the release of Arcade Fire’s new album, Everything Now, for months. Now that it’s here, there are myriad options for listening to the diverse 13-track dance-rock opus.

Apple Music wants to get in on the fun, and is offering an exclusive film of the band’s recent Brooklyn concert, aptly titled Everything Now Live. Most of the tracks are from the new album, and if you’ve never seen Arcade Fire perform live, this is nearly as good — and it’s very, very good.

Of course, new Apple Music users get three months of free listening to enjoy this and millions of other albums, playlists and, increasingly, video content like Planet of the Apps.

The Thrifter team is back again, this time with an even easier way to add USB plugs to your existing outlets!

Not everyone out there wants to replace the electrical outlets in their home with ones that offer a USB connector, but luckily you don’t have to. Adding USB outlets can be as simple as grabbing a screw driver and replacing the outlet cover. You don’t need to turn off the power, you don’t have to hire an electrician, just swap them out and start plugging in your cables.

Using the coupon code THRFTRHOME5 you can grab one of these outlet covers just $14.99, or you can pick up two of them for $24.99. These are made by iPM, a smaller company that is beginning to appear in national retailers like Home Depot. Each cover has two 2.1A USB ports built-in, so you can plug in your phone, tablet, action camera, or any other gadget without any worries.

These outlets normally sell for as much as $22, which makes this deal pretty sweet. Daily Steals is offering free shipping on these orde…

What are the best Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)?

A VPN can be described as an encrypted tunnel that shuttles your internet activity between your computer or phone and a host server. While the internet is a public space, a VPN works by extending an invisibility cloak across the user’s activity and allows people to send and receive data in a mostly anonymous manner. In the simplest terms, a VPN makes it hard for someone to track your activity.

There are many different reasons people would want to use a VPN. In some countries, VPNs become a journalist’s main tool to get around government censorship and geo-blocks.

It’s true, there are plenty of free VPN services out there, but none that you can truly trust. You need a service that has fast speeds, even when streaming video, and you want a service that doesn’t keep logs of its users’ activities. To help you decide which VPN is best, here are some great options that are available now.

As a father of three active children, I’m no stranger to calls from school in the middle of the day.

They happen a lot, and for all different reasons. Lunchboxes left at home, bruises earned on the recess playground, and the occasional conference reminder hit my phone a few times a month. At the end of the last school year, I got a call from the school with a voice I didn’t recognize. It didn’t take me long to figure out this call wasn’t like the others.

The administrator on the other end of the line was struggling to find the appropriate words to describe to me what had happened. By the time he had gotten around to the point, it became clear I had missed a few options in my mental ”worst case scenario” list.

Joking in real life, shaming online

A photo of my oldest daughter changing in the locker room at school had appeared on Instagram. Two puke emoji sat on either side of her, with some text mocking her for not having an ideal body. The account, which at the time only had the o…

Have you ever watched a fantastic film and wondered how the final product all came from the first draft of a script that someone wrote? All great movies start with an amazing script. Every writer (myself included) knows the hardest part of writing anything is getting started, but when it comes to movie scripts, the proper formatting is just as important as having words on the page. No one in Hollywood will look at a script that isn’t to the proper standards, meaning if you want to shop a script around you’re going to need some help.

Format movie scripts with ease! Learn more

Now, you could learn how to format all your scripts in most word processors, but it would take you hours to figure out all the right margins, spacing, fonts, and other specifics that go into a screenplay. There are plenty of screenwriting programs available for you to purchase, but they can be very expensive. Lucky for you, iMore Digital Offers has a solution.

The 13-inch MacBook Air is the best MacBook college students can buy today. It’s inexpensive for a Mac, has plenty of ports, and is light enough to carry with you all day.

Best overall

13-inch MacBook Air

See at Apple

The 13-inch MacBook Air doesn’t have a high-density Retina display or a Force Touch trackpad, but what it does have is 2x USB, 2x Thunderbolt, MagSafe, SD card, and 3.5mm headphone jack, and up to 2.2 GHz, 8 GB of DDR3 memory, and 512 GB of solid state storage, all in an ultra-light package that won’t break the bank. In fact, starting at just $999 and weighing in at only 2.96 lbs, it’s literally the ultralight laptop that every other manufacturer has spent the last few years figuring out how to copy. I carried a 13-inch MacBook Air for years and when someone in my family recently headed to college, it’s the Mac I had him go with.

Starts at $999.

Bottom-line: The 13-inch MacBook Air has been the go-to for tech writers for years, and for good reason. If you don’…

Our friends at Thrifter are back again, this time with some Nintendo Switch bundles that are actually worth buying!

Gamestop has a variety of Nintendo Switch bundles in stock currently with free shipping when you use code SAVER.

If you still haven’t been able to get your hands on one yet, this deal is practically as good as they come at this point. Each bundle includes a game to bring the total of the bundle to the price of what it would cost if you bought the Nintendo Switch and the included game at full price.

Realistically you can find small discounts on these games at various retailers, but finding a Switch is near impossible in most stores and online right now. These bundles will ship by Sept 8 so your wait for the Switch could be over by the end of next week if you order today.

The Switch doesn’t come with a carrying case and you’re gonna want to bring it along with you when you go on trips or long car rides, so you may want to check out this sweet Mario Kart 8 travel case …
