500px: 500px is like Flickr, if Flickr filtered all the crappy photos that the bulk of their users sometimes post and distilled it into true art photography. So it's a place where really good photographers can store their pictures in polished portfolios for other really good photographers (or just other people) to see them. It's an elite social network for photogs, basically. The iPad app is an extension of their web site, you can browse popular pictures, see editors picks, new pictures, your pictures,...

I love my iPad, but I made the mistake of buying a 16GB model—that’s not enough storage for all my apps, home videos, movies, TV shows, photos, and documents. I can rely on cloud storage, but since my iPad is Wi-Fi only, I like having extra local storage. I’ve been using a Kensington Wi-Drive, but it has its limitations....

Days by Wander launched back in May with a very difficult mission: to change the way you think about photo-sharing.

To help usher in this type of behavior, Days didn’t allow photo imports, as they wanted…

Adventurous, life-marrow-sucking souls are known to embrace the danger of carrying their iPhones case-free, begging fate to shatter those screens when running from bulls or jumping out of moving cars. But even more hardcore than carrying a naked iPhone is wrapping it in a badass case like one of these. Your boring silicone sleeve can't see heat, or saw through wood, or build an IKEA bookcase.
