cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-03 05:00:00

Your savings will grow faster in this account. Kristina Kokhanova/Getty Images Until recently, reviewing the interest earned on my savings account was a snoozefest. If I was lucky, my balance increased a whole cent or two each month. Interest rates -- like temperatures -- are high right now. You just need to look in the right place. Instead of the meager annual percentage yield I'm getting with my current savings account, I can net up to 4.5% APY with one of today's top CDs. That means my inte

However, the Rhode Island Marine Archaeology Project (RIMAP)—the museum's research partner in the project—promptly released a statement calling the announcement premature. RIMAP insisted that more evidence was needed. The final report is now available, and both RIMAP and A

techcrunch.com Julie Bort 2025-09-03 06:10:46

In Brief The VCs, pod bros, and self-proclaimed “besties” of the All-In Podcast launched their own tequila brand Saturday night and it promptly sold out, according to liquor ecommerce sites. Their version of the Mexican spirit cost a jaw-dropping $1,200 apiece but only 750 bottles were made. The stacked poker-chip container was inspired by the “besties” love of the card game.

I Won't Be Getting the New Chase Sapphire Reserve. Here's Why

Chase/CNET The Chase Sapphire Reserve®* is well-known among travel enthusiasts and average credit card users as a great travel credit card. However, its accessibility to the former crowd is likely to change.

When is the best time to book your flight? These Google insights could make your next trip cheaper

zdnet.com Chris Bayer 2025-09-03 21:14:00

Jaromir/Getty Images The last time I booked a vacation flight, I literally spent over an hour finding the cheapest ticket to Hawaii with two criteria in mind: that it wasn't a red-eye flight, and it only had one layover. At least one layover was to be expected (at LAX) because Kentucky is a long way from the Aloha State. I could've saved some time, though -- and money -- had I known what Google's recent report revealed. Also: 7 gadgets I recommend for travel as a digital nomad What is the che

Spotify’s much hated ‘Create’ button could soon go away, if you want it to (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-04 14:02:11

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Spotify introduced a “Create” button in its app’s bottom navigation, but the move sparked widespread user backlash. Code within the latest app release suggests the company is listening to user feedback, as it could soon give users an option to hide the Create button. This opt-out toggle is not yet live, nor has Spotify officially confirmed it. Old habits die hard, and Spotify is learning this the hard way. The service introduced the “Create” button on it
