Record or stream 180º video with the Altia PanaCast 2 USB camera.

PanaCast 2 is a small camera that actually has three lenses that are automatically stitched together for a 4K, 180º video. It's a standard USB camera, so it's easy plug-and-play with any software.

You can also use PanaCast 2 for recording virtual-reality videos and experiences.

PanaCast 2 is small and portable and retails for $995. That's quite expensive for the average podcaster, but it's a good deal for business applications. It's also a great alternative to using several GoPros and stitching the video together in post-production.

Learn what it takes to create your own top-level domain (TLD)—that's the “.whatever”—and what you should consider, and how Afilias can help.

Afilias is a technology company that helps people get their own top-level domains and can provide the necessary technology to support it. They have assisted in making many TLDs, such as .info, .pro, .vote, and many more. ICANN is the governing organization that accepts applications for new TLDs. This has previously cost $185,000 and it opens only every few years.

To get your own TLD, you need to submit a completed, detailed application and fee (likely around $200,000) to ICANN. Then, ICANN will evaluate the application (and Afilias can help with this). If approved, you can proceed to launching with domain registrars.

Yes, the application fee is high, but it's what covers ICANN's hiring subject experts to properly and thoroughly evaluate applications.

If you start your own TLD, you'll have to implement security measures. But you can also set and police eligibility requirements and acceptable uses.

With new and sometimes unrecognizable TLDs, we need to use context and language to help clarify that something is a URL. People will soon get used to seeing these different web addresses, without your having to use “www.” or “http://” to clarify.

See Afilias to learn more or to register your own top-level domain!

Protect your USB-C-powered laptop with a magnetic, breakaway power cable from Griffin!

One of the most common causes for laptop PC damage is tripping on the power cable, which throws the computer onto the floor. Not only can such an impact damage components, but it can also corrupt data on spinning hard disk drives.

Griffin's iMic USB has been a favorite device for podcasters. At CES2016, Griffin introduced a new iMic with all the same features now available to USB-C MacBooks, ChromeBooks, and other PCs.

The iMic is an external audio device that brings analog 3.5 mm input and output to any PC with many potential uses:

* Separate input and output on PCs with only a single combo audio port

* Stereo mic or line-level input for PCs that offer only mono mic input

* Additional audio input and output devices for greater flexibility (especially wonderful for podcasting needs)

* Dedicated audio input and output ports for PCs that offer only a USB-C connection

This works great for media creators as well as those who want to convert their analog audio recordings into a digital format.

The Griffin iMic USB-C will be available in the second quarter of 2016 and retail for $44.99.
