Today's Story Highlights
Monkey Light Pro: Bicycle Bling - at a Hefty Price
If you've been anywhere near Mid-City or central parts of baked-concrete
urban Los Angeles in the last few years, you may have noticed the
Midnight Ridazz, a large social bike group who generally ride in the
evening and at night -- often en masse. This group of bicycle
enthusiasts have been whizzing around the streets of LA in the dark
since 2004 and make an impressive sight.

Burner Delivers on Phone Privacy Once You Get It Lit
If you've ever hesitated when giving out your phone number to someone,
Burner may be for you. The app provides disposable, short-term phone
numbers that you can use if you feel the need for some number privacy
and don't want your real number known. Use the temporary number, or
"burner," for as long as necessary and then "burn" it when you're done
to eliminate excessive interruptions in your life.

In Space, No One Can Hear PayPal Cha-Ching
It was once virtually unthinkable for a company to operate on a global
scale, but if a recent move by PayPal is any indication, this small
planet of ours may soon be just the beginning. In fact, PayPal on
Thursday announced the launch of PayPal Galactic, an initiative that's
designed to address the upcoming need for universal payments from space.

Twitter's Choice: Set Up Shop in Turkey or Be Banned
In what could be a prelude to censorship, the Turkish government has
asked Twitter to establish a "representative office" in Turkey. The
government has hinted that it might ban Twitter if the company doesn't
comply. Turkey did as much to YouTube, blocking the site for two years
until last October, when Google opened a Turkish office. Twitter has
been a common meeting spot for Turkish protesters.

Microsoft Gets Into the Personal Factory Biz With 3D Printing Support
Microsoft announced Wednesday that the latest updates to its Windows
operating system will include built-in support for 3D printers, making
it as easy for consumers to create a 3D object as it is to print text.
Additive manufacturing isn't a new technology, but it is just starting
to work its way into a more mainstream market -- and Microsoft wants to
be there when it does.
