If you want to take the visual pulse of a major event, you can do a lot worse than checking out Instagram. Now, for Hurricane Sandy, we present Instacane, a site that updates with Instagram images of the storm in real time. It doesn't seem to be curated, so there are plenty of context-less images popping through, but there's also a lot of interesting shots, like this one, near the Hudson River. Keep an eye on it here.
Five amazing, clean technologies that will set us free, in this month's energy-focused issue. Also: how to build a better bomb detector, the robotic toys that are raising your children, a human catapult, the world's smallest arcade, and much more.
