finally past the sweltering heat but it's not really that cold. What can you
do with the in-between weather we have ahead of us currently?
We've prepared a
weekend guide full of options for you no matter what the weather is like!

parties and more happening in our city.

Highest Speed Data
Despite
some warnings from tech giants like Elon Musk, 5G data is carrying forward.
The fastest data speeds yet were originally restricted for small businesses
and companies.
Now, a launch date
for the service is being revealed to the public. It will be the largest data
network Verizon has ever launched, ensuring lightning-fast streaming and
crisp signal.
|
Nightlife Made Easy
Why
live in this century if you're not reaping the rewards of high tech
connection? Ever having fun in the city require communication, planning,
budgeting, coordination, and time management.
Whether you're in
need of ordering booze, booking a reservation or any of the other plagues of
living in NYC, there's an app that'll help.

Tech Calls NYC Home
Companies
are not people, but as time goes on they somehow wiggle into our intimate
living spaces in more ways than one. Today, companies famous for optimizing
everyday activities have made NYC just as much their home as it is
ours.
If you've ever
wondered exactly where and how giants like Google and Amazon are shacking up
in the big apple, check out this map.

Hidden Academy
It
gives off superhuman vibes like a school for the cyborg or magical. On the
contrary, Cornell Tech is a grad school that furthers the education of
applied sciences.
The site is now
considered a hub for tech innovation and discovery in the city. Bloomberg's
vision for the center was for it to produce talents which could mirror
Silicone Valley, ambitious but we have faith too.
