Title: The Internet of Things - Devices connected to the internet
Runtime: 3:14

Description: More and more devices are connected to the internet, from smartphones to cars to forks. Collectively, this trend is referred to as the "internet of things." The term was coined about 10 years ago, but only in the last few years have truly creative uses emerged, from temperature sensors that help regulate energy use to refrigerators that order more milk when you're running out.

Still, it's early yet. "It's not easy enough and it's not cost-effective enough," said Robert Mawrey, CEO of ioBridge, a startup that produces internet-connected devices. Mawrey recently visited the Quartz office in New York and explained how he sees the internet of things developing and how it will shift from hobby to household standard. Watch the video above to see his take.

Title: Timelapse: Has the US gone off the fiscal cliff webcam

Description: We have taken our interactive dashboard monitoring the approach of the US "fiscal cliff" offline.

http://hastheusgoneoffthefiscalcliff.com hosted a webcam in the Quartz office, pointed at a whiteboard wall, that was updated every five minutes. All the headlines and quotes we taped to the wall were clickable links on the page. We counted down to the end of the year--the fiscal cliff deadline--and kept it up to date with the state of negotiations, the promises and threats, and the wise and foolish things said by all and sundry.

Shortly after the US went over the fiscal cliff, Congress and President Obama approved a deal that retains some tax breaks and postpones spending cuts for two months.

The music is "Flight of the Bumble Bee" as performed by the US Army Band
