Earlier today, Apple kicked off its Worldwide Developers Conference with a boatload of new product announcements and software updates, perhaps the most notable of which was the unveiling of the new Mavericks operating system. Not only does this bring an end to the Big Cats era, it also brings OS X a plethora of new features, functions, and improvements.

Some of the biggest and most important changes came to OS X’s default file manager, Finder. Mavericks (as we predicted) brings tabbed browsing to Finder, along with a new tagging feature that makes finding your files easier to search than ever before.

Apple also included a new notification system (think Growl, but with more features and advanced use options), a new Maps application, improved calendar, multi-screen functions, and a bunch of clever little software tricks that improve overall system performance.

This new $30 keychain camera is coming for Kodak Charmera with a flip screen for selfies

Yashica's new camera makes toy photography more fun

YASHICA Funtastic Keychain Camera in multiple variants

Tiny digital cameras are all the rage, and Yashica is now offering a very cute toy photography experience of its own. The company’s new Funtastic Keychain Camera is exactly what the name suggests, a miniature digital camera small enough to clip onto your keys, bag, or lanyard. The popular Kodak Charmera is the obvious comparison, which brings a tiny blind-box keychain camera that became a viral collectible.

Now, Yashica's version lands in the same novelty-camera lane, but adds one very useful trick, which is a 180-degree flip screen.

Google releases big v4.0 update for its popular Snapseed editing app on Android

Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

After years of sitting on its hands, Google appears to have remembered it owns one of the best photo editing apps on mobile. Snapseed 4.0 is now rolling out to Android, bringing the platform up to speed after a stretch of iOS exclusivity that left Android users watching from the sidelines.

The story starts last June, when Google quietly broke Snapseed out of its long dormancy with a significant 3.0 update for iPhone. It was a surprise move that suggested the company was serious about the app again. Google then confirmed at the start of this year that Android wouldn't be left behind for long, and true to that word, the Play Store listing has now been updated to reflect version 4.0 — skipping straight past 3.0 for Android users and landing both platforms on the same version simultaneously.

Google Photos gets new editing tools that are all about subtle touch-ups

Google Photos just made your camera roll feel like it came with a makeup artist included, and the results are refreshingly understated.

Google Photos Touch Up feature in action.

Whether it is dark circles from a late night of work, a blemish that showed up uninvited, or something similar that could use additional brightness, Google Photos now has you covered.

Google has officially rolled out a new Touch Up suite inside its Photos app editor, integrating face retouching tools directly into the app for the first time. Previously, such adjustments were only available inside Google’s Camera app at the time of capture.
