Things change so quickly in the tech space that even professionals sometimes find themselves stymied by the incessant and confusing terminology surrounding certain protocols (like the ones we're going to discuss today - Thunderbolt and USB). I remember the days of 8-track tapes, but I also remember when tapes were surpassed by CDs, and CDs were surpassed by MP3s, and now how MP3s are being taken over by streaming music sources. Thinking back on those days, I was constantly barraged by new terms every day that made it difficult to slog through

The woods are lovely, dark and deep, as the poet once wrote—so dark it can be really hard to stay on the trail as dusk approaches, or find your way around a campsite without tripping over guy lines, or change a tire on a country road in the dead of night.
We like the dark woods (and the starry skies above them), but there are times when you need to see what you’re doing. To that end, Black Diamond Equipment, of Salt Lake City, has updated its line of headlamps and

When I was in high school, going to the beach was easy. My friends and I would grab a towel and a Frisbee, jump on our bikes and ride a mile to Theodore Roosevelt Park, in Oyster Bay. In college, we’d pile into someone’s car and drive to Jones Beach or Robert Moses State Park. Since we’re older and we’re all married, and many of us have kids, going to the beach is decidedly more complicated. Now that the Fourth of July has passed and we’re in full-on Summer Fun-time mode, we here at B&H thought we’d help all of you out with some beach gear

But because of the time that cyclists spend breathing heavily in close proximity to motor-vehicle exhaust, is commuting by bike in New York City as healthy as we would like it to be? A team of researchers from Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health & Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory is trying to figure that out. And, to

With the days getting longer and the sun shining brighter, families tend to spend more time soaking up rays, exploring roads less travelled, taking in outdoor concerts or games, or sightseeing. As an Optics writer for B&H, I’m frequently asked for binocular recommendations from friends and family - and random people at restaurants once or twice - so I’m here to share some of my favorite binos and what they’re good for. I’m not going to go into excruciating detail about terminology here, so if you start to get a little confused about some
