DEAL OF THE DAY: Meet MOOV: The future of fitness wearables
The MOOV wearable fitness coach is a game changing new development in fitness tracking technology. To be truthful, though, it would be incorrect to simply refer to the MOOV as a tracker because it does so much more than that.
While other fitness trackers monitor things like your steps taken and calories burned, they don’t offer any feedback with respect to your exercise techniques. This is exactly what sets the MOOV apart from its competition. It employs a series of precision sensors that analyze your movements and suggest changes so you get the most out of your workout. It is this dynamic quality that makes the MOOV more of a fitness coach than a tracker.

Has Jony Ive been even more integral to Apple’s success than Steve Jobs?
In one sense, it’s ridiculous to speculate that Ive could be more integral to Apple’s overall success than Steve Jobs. After all, if Jobs had never come back, Apple would likely have been bought out or gone out of business all together. That said, a massive new profile of Ive in The New Yorker makes it clear that Ive possesses not only design smarts but a leadership style that may have been better suited than Jobs’ for getting the most out of the people who work for him.
