 Good morning! The weather folks are calling for a sunny, hot day in New York. Let's look at the news. Samsung announced a bunch of stuff, so we'll be heavy on that. - Mike Bloomberg is returning to Bloomberg LP. He was mayor of New York for 12 years. His original plan post mayorship was to focus on philanthropy, but he was restless and felt energized by what he saw at Bloomberg LP, so he's back.
- Apple's head of design, Jony Ive, has supposedly been bragging about how good the iWatch is, playfully telling people that "Switzerland is in trouble." (Switzerland is where many world class watches come from.)
- Samsung announced the Note Edge, an odd phone that has a curve screen that bends at the edge. Samsung can put apps along that edge, but in our brief time with it, the software needed work. You can avoid this one.
- Samsung also announced a normal new phablet phone that has a 5.7-inch screen, the Note 4. It doesn't seem to have any major innovations, it's just the latest model, which is good if you're in the market for a giant Android phone.
- Samsung also announced a virtual reality headset that was developed in collaboration with Oculus, the company that Facebook bought.
- And finally, Samsung announced another smart watch — it's 6th! in less than a year. Nobody will buy this one either.
- Google's anti-aging startup Calico has partnered with drug company AbbVie.
- We asked a bunch of people in the ad tech industry for one company to watch, and the name that came back over and over was MediaMath.
- Twitter's CFO laid out three priorities for the product this year: Improving search, improving the algorithm that can show you tweets, and doing group chatting.
- In 1993, AT&T ran a series of ads about the future that proved to be freakishly true — and another prediction from those ads is about to become real.
