By now, you’ve probably heard of Bitcoin, the cryptocurrency that’s quickly making its way into the mainstream. And if you spend a significant chunk of your life clicking around the Web, you’ve likely come across the glorious, grammatically questionable Doge meme. So, what do you get when you combine these two so Internet-y things? Dogecoin, of course. Wow.
“Doge,” for those of you who have better things to do with your life than browse 4chan or Reddit, is a meme that features a Shiba Inu dog(e) whose inner monologue is written in broken English, using the Comic Sans font. For example:
Dogecoin, on the other hand, is an open-source, peer-to-peer digital currency. Unlike Bitcoin, which is currently trading for around $900 per Bitcoin, a single Dogecoin is worth almost nothing – fractions of a penny. However, that could change of course. Bitcoins were worth almost nothing when they first came on the scene in 2009, and the people who bought in early are now buying Lamborghinis and apartments.
Which is not to say that Dogecoin will become the next Bitcoin. As a commenter on the Bitcoin forums recently asked, “Is this supposed to be retarded on purpose?” The answer, of course, is yes. But considering that we’re talking about the Internet here, ridiculousness is Dogecoin’s most valuable feature.
If you find yourself wanting to blow some pocket change (or Bitcoin) on a Dogecoin investment, you can learn more about it on the Dogecoin forums, subreddit, and website. Very information. Such amaze.
Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.
Instagram brings Reels and more to Apple TV
I have lost count of how many times I have gone to bed thinking I will finally sleep on time, only to somehow end up scrolling Instagram or X again. A few minutes turn into an hour, then another, and before I notice, it is 2 or 3 a.m. The next morning, I am usually annoyed with myself because I could have just slept and felt considerably better for the day ahead.
It is also a surprisingly hard habit to beat. Knowing you should put the phone down does not always help once it is already in your hand. Brick Night is a new gadget built around that exact problem. Instead of relying on you to remember to turn on an app blocker, it automatically restricts selected apps and websites when your phone enters your chosen sleep space during the hours you set.
WhatsApp’s scheduled messages are finally making their way onto the iPhone. We first saw the feature pop up way back in February 2026. Then, just last week, the feature became usable for select Android beta testers.
Now, it's arriving to the iPhone, with WhatsApp rolling out scheduled messages to some iOS beta testers running version 26.42.10.19 through TestFlight. The WABetaInfo report says that access will expand to additional testers over the coming weeks, although WhatsApp still hasn’t announced when everyone will get it.
