Incase introduces Bird’s Nest Snap Case for iPhone 4

By Kelly Montgomery Published May 12, 2011

This week Incase revealed yet another incarnation of the brand’s ever-popular snap-on case. The new case features a unique woven look with randomized cutouts, a design that was inspired by the intricate details of birds’ nests. The Bird’s Nest Snap Case ($35) from Incase provides ultra-lightweight protection thanks to the minimal heft of the woven design. The case provides access to all ports and four-corner protection for your iPhone 4. The unique design lets the back of your iPhone show through, creating more contrast for a dramatic look. Despite the cool design, this case remains one of the simplest and slimmest available. The case can be purchased online now in either black or steel.

The best note-taking apps for iOS and Android

I tested these apps for months so your notes never have to switch homes again.

Choosing a note-taking app is not easy. What note-taking app you choose depends on your needs, the platform you use, and of course, the cost. The process becomes even more complicated as it seems that there’s a new shiny app released every other week.

That’s why I always suggest choosing a note-taking app that has all the features you need and can last you for a long time. Also, don’t chase new apps. The real power of a note-taking app comes when all your notes live in one place, making it easy to spot connections between them.

Snapchat Planets Meaning: Order, Rankings, and How Friend Solar System Works

Snapchat Planets turns your best friends list into a solar system, and yes, your orbit says a lot

Snapchat Planets being shown on the Snapchat app on iPhone.

Snapchat+ includes several exclusive features, but few have generated as much curiosity as Snapchat Planets. Part of the app's Friend Solar System, it transforms your Best Friends list into a planetary ranking, assigning each of your top eight friends a planet based on how often you interact.

From Mercury, which represents your closest friend, to Neptune, which represents your eighth closest, the system offers a quick visual snapshot of your interactions. But what do the different planets actually mean, and how does Snapchat decide who gets which one?
