Star Wars – Dominating the news this week is hype surrounding the newest edition to the Star Wars saga, The Force Awakens. Opening this weekend, the film has already been met with rave reviews from critics and fans alike. The seventh installment in the series, which has been a favorite since its debut in 1977, was directed by J.J. Abrams and over the next few years will be followed by two more “sequel episodes.”

The White House – A virtual reality, 360-degree tour of the White House (fully decked out with holiday decor) is now available on YouTube or via Android-run VR headsets thanks to help from Google and a 16-camera setup. In just five minutes, the viewer is able to get a detailed look at “the East Landing, East Colonnade, East Garden Room, White House Library, Vermeil Room, State Dining Room and more,” almost as if they were there themselves.
