Are your kids begging you for the latest “it” toy — a hoverboard? Today’s hoverboards aren’t the levitating skateboards you’ve seen Marty McFly ride in the film, Back to the Future II, but they’re still all the rage.

Similar to now, the venues themselves are a gathering place in city centers, but unlike today, back then their design was unique and reflected the era and the area in which they were built. If you want to take a step back in time taking a seat in a historic theater is a get a snapshot into history. Let’s visit some of the most iconic theaters around the world…

The Lily camera drone is quite possibly the coolest gadget we’ve seen this year and will most likely make most of our wish lists next year. This drone can take video of its user from several different angles by performing specific commands including follow, lead, slowmo, fly up, side and loop. One of the coolest features is that the Lily camera flies itself and there is no control required. So you can kayak, ski, run, etc. and Lily will follow your every move.
