Cloud storage from Google is coming

Google Drive is expected to launch next week, offering a reported 5GB of free storage for users (and of course you can buy more storage space). According to early reports, it will work with Android, iOS, Windows, and Macs. This is going to potentially be a big hit for Dropbox, which only offers 2GB of storage for free.

See the back of the Instagram icon

Instagram is probably the most popular photo-styling and sharing app out there, especially now that it's available for Android in addition to iOS. Cole Rise has created a fun Instagram icon that looks like the back of a camera (since the real Instagram icon looks like the front of a vintage camera). Really well-done!
