With the proliferation of drones in recent years, chances are that you’ve seen one hovering over you. We know that those of you who love your gadgets are probably in the market for one. Look no further — choose ZANO. The Kickstarter-funded company raised a whopping $3.6 million in funding — which was way over their original goal of $192,993.

“ZANO is an ultra-portable, personal aerial photography and HD video capture platform, small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and intelligent enough to fly all by itself!” says the company. “ZANO connects directly to your smart device (iOS or Android) via onboard WiFi and enables you to instantly begin capturing and sharing moments like never before.”

The thing that makes ZANO so appealing is that you don’t have to follow complicated instructions to make it work. “Right out of the box you can begin capturing and sharing stunning aerial photographs and videos, with absolutely no complex flight training required,” said Ivan Reedman, head of research and development.

Plus, it’s easy to operate. If ZANO is running low on batteries, is losing its signal or has gone too far, it knows to return to your smart device. It’s also extremely lightweight and durable. All that for an extremely affordable $263!

So forget all those other drones out there. Pre-order a ZANO now, and you’ll have one by the summer, just in time to capture all those outdoor moments by the sand and water. Fly it over your friend as he surfs over waves, or over your family boat trip. Your photographs will be taken to new heights.

Will ‘Bad Monkey’ get a season 2 at Apple TV+?
The show is based on a book of the same name that has a sequel
Vince Vaughn in Bad Monkey

Apple TV+ is slowly but surely building a library of interesting TV projects. Bad Monkey, which aired earlier this year on the streamer, was just one example, adapting a novel of the same name and bringing in Vince Vaughn to star.

Now, Variety is reporting that the show will be back for a second season. There is a sequel to the original novel, which was written by Carl Hiaasen, titled Razor Girl, but Variety's reporting suggests that the second season will not be based on that novel. In spite of that creative departure, creator Bill Lawrence said he has nothing but admiration for Hiaasen.

Get up to date on everything we know about The White Lotus season 3

When the first season of The White Lotus premiered in 2021, few could have suspected that it would become one of the best shows on HBO and Max. Even series creator Mike White considered The White Lotus to be a six-episode one-off story. But viewer response to this dark comedy show was so strong that White and HBO realized that they had a hit on their hands. That's why the series was quickly renewed, and the second season premiered on HBO and Max in 2022, just a little over a year after the first season.

The White Lotus season 3 was confirmed in November 2022, and fans have had to wait over two years for its return. Audiences can finally expect the series to be on their screens again shortly after the calendar flips to 2025. We're gradually getting little tidbits about season 3. We're sharing everything we know about The White Lotus season 3, which includes most of the cast, the theme, and the setting, as well as when fans can expect the show to return.
