If you've had access to a digital device over the past few days, you'll no doubt have caught the furor surrounding that dress - or The Dress, as the Internet is calling it - and specifically, what color it was supposed to be. Some said blue and black, while others defiantly maintained that it was, in fact, white and gold. The meme, which originated on Tumblr, seemed to explode into life, and while a few days have passed since it first went viral, the debate continues to rage on. As a very appropriate sign of the times in which we live, the snap of the dress has been made into a phone case, with two different color configurations allowing owners to pick their poison, so whether you're "#WhiteAndGold" or "#BlackAndBlue," you can now, quite literally, dress your iPhone in the gown that threatened to break the Internet.

Pebble has just taken the wraps off a new smartwatch that looks conspicuously similar to the Apple Watch, in an attempt, one suspects, to reel in potential consumers that may be swayed by the Mac maker's high-end finishes. After unleashing the Pebble Time only days ago, the Pebble Time Steel is essentially a redressed version, featuring a slick, metallic finish along with a premium-looking leather and steel strap.

If there is one thing that the world isn't short of, it's books that claim to tell the story of Steve Jobs, whether it be his life during the early days of Apple or his triumphant return to the company he founded after his ousting years earlier.
