Twitter's new Highlights Feature

How to enable Twitter's new Highlights feature on Android

Make sure you never miss an important tweet or conversation, by enabling Highlights.

Twitter on Thursday announced a new feature, called Highlights, that's intended to help you stay informed on the most important tweets and conversations among your followers.
The feature is limited to English-language readers with the Twitter app installed on an Android device, however.

While Highlights is officially launching today, April 23, it requires an opt-in to start receiving alerts.
  1. To enable the feature on your account, you'll need to launch the official Twitter app on your Android device and bring up the three-dot icon in the top-right corner of your screen.
  2. Select Settings from the drop-down.
  3. Next, tap on your account name. If you have more than one account, you'll need to complete this process on each account.
  4. Tap on Mobile Notifications.
  5. Scroll down until you find the new option titled Highlights and tap on it. The check box should now display a check mark, indicating the feature is enabled.
Alternatively, you can also access Highlitghts by tapping on its icon in the navigation bar of the Twitter app.
Back out of Settings and look for an alert toward the bottom of your device's screen letting you know the new notification setting has been saved.
Now, all you have to do is wait until Twitter feels it has enough important content to push an alert to your device. I enabled the feature about 30 minutes ago and have yet to receive anything. Which is what I expected, considering Twitter will only send a maximum of two highlight alerts per day.

In the list you’ll find popular apps such as Hangouts, Skype, WhatApp and Viber, as well as regional favourites including Line and Nimbuzz. The test method For our test, we subjected each of these 10 apps to three separate one minute calls and recorded the amount of data used by the app after each call. These three totals were then averaged together to produce the result. Bo...

Apple Drone

Here's what an Apple drone might look like Many major tech companies are eyeing drones — Amazon, Google and even Facebook. It's unclear at this point whether Apple wants in, too, but one designer has envisioned what the company's version of a drone might look like if it ever launched one. German designer Eric Huisman mocked up a sleek drone concept called the  Apple Quadcopter , which has a minimalistic black-and-white design. It's very, well,  Apple . In a series of photos posted to his  website , which are stylized to look like Apple's traditional promotional pictures, the company's iconic logo sits in the middle of a slightly curved body, an element that Huisman says will support its many built-in cameras. Similar to a typical quadcopter, the Apple drone has four rotors and four cameras that can shoot still and panoramic photos (up to 100MP). The concept, which was first spotted by  CNET , also incorporates 4K video functionality and built-...
