If you’re an avid Instagram shooter, fancy doing a bit of traveling “across the continent” and don’t mind pocketing some cash for your troubles, then read on.

Netflix is on the hunt for three accomplished Instagrammers – or what it calls “Grammasters” – to explore the US (and other locations throughout the American continent, possibly) while taking “beautiful pictures for Netflix Instagram channels.”

So, how to apply. First, you’ll have to join the 108,000 others and become a follower of Netflix’s Instagram account. After that, it’s a case adding the hashtag #Grammaster to your best three Instagram shots so the judges can see if your work is likely to be worth the $4,000 the company intends to pay you.

All travel arrangements will be taken care of by Netflix, with the job involving shooting content at “iconic film and television locations.” You might even find yourself on the sets of Netflix originals or other “awesome shows and films,” the company said on a dedicated webpage highlighting its latest opportunity.

If you’re interested, you’ve got till October 7 to hashtag your best images.

Nice job

Netflix has a habit of surprising us with fun-sounding job offers. The video-streaming service earlier this year offered up the ideal job for film fans when it said it was looking to hire a “movie and TV content expert” whose job description was to, well, watch stuff.

The “tagger” job involves keywording shows to help users of the service find relevant content more easily during searches.

What is Bluesky, and should you join?

X, formerly known as Twitter, has been mired in controversy almost since it came into being, but that seems to have reached new heights during the Elon Musk era. Regardless of where you stand on X's current state, it's clear that a large number of people are looking for a new home, and the fledgling social media site Bluesky has become one of the top contenders. Over 1 million U.S. users joined Bluesky in the week following the reelection of Donald Trump as president in November 2024, helping it cross the 15 million user threshold and climb to the top of the App Store chart. Signing up for the new social media platform used to be on an invite-only basis, but the elimination of invites helped make the move from X to Bluesky a lot easier for everybody.

But what exactly is Bluesky and how can you sign up for it? Here's an explainer of exactly what you can expect from the new Twitter clone, Bluesky.

I love the Oura Ring 4, except for one big thing
Oura RIng 4 Silver Size 12 on a shelf

Since I had a heart attack four years ago at the age of 33, the Oura Ring has been a trusty sidekick for managing my health. First, it was the Oura Ring 2, and a few months later, the Oura Ring 3 became my go-to when it launched three years ago.

That’s changed this year as every company competes for a spot on our best smart rings list. The number of smart rings has grown exponentially this year, and many companies are launching first-generation or second-generation smart rings — offering viable alternatives to Oura. The company’s answer? The Oura Ring 4.

Don’t buy the Kindle Colorsoft, buy this e-reader instead
dont buy the kindle colorsoft onyx boox go color 7 instead 1

Everyone is talking about e-readers again, and it's because Amazon recently released a whole new bunch of Kindles. Of the new releases, one stands apart as something new for Amazon: The Kindle Colorsoft is the company's first attempt at a color e-ink display, and it replaces the long-forgotten Kindle Oasis as Amazon's new flagship e-reader device. At $280, it's certainly an expensive piece of kit — especially if you consider the basic Kindle costs almost a third of that. But it's quite simply the most advanced Kindle that Amazon has ever made.

So, does that mean you should buy it immediately? Absolutely not; I want you to buy something else instead.
