Here’s a 34-second video of Samsung folding the Galaxy Fold over and over again

In case you haven’t heard, Samsung is working on a bendable phone. Since it first entered the fold (pun intended), we’ve wondered one thing: will folding the device over and over again show on the display?

The next chapter for TNW: Financial Times acquires a majority stake in TNW

March 2006, Boris and I decided to organize a small get-together for the few people that were working in tech – or ‘Web 2. 0’, as we called it at the time. We registered a domain (thenextweb. org), created a logo, wrote some copy, reserved a venue, and pinged Michael Arrington (founder of TechCrunch) to see if he wanted to speak at our ‘conference’ in Amsterdam. дальше »
