Today, Lindsay Lohan turns 27. The star has come a long way since she first appeared as adorable, freckle-faced twins Hallie and Annie in the superb film The Parent Trap at age 11. Since then she's dated Aaron Carter, starred in Mean Girls (nine years ago!), dated Sam Ronson, visited rehab numerous times, founded a line of leggings, and played Elizabeth Taylor in the Lifetime classic Liz & Dick. Throughout all this, Lohan has made notable fashion decisions, from sheer dresses and breast-baring necklines to more conservative attire (and now infamous nail art) for probation hearings. In honor of her birthday, check out Lilo's most notable sartorial moments in our look book below.

Male Gaze: Happy Early Birthday, Kanye West
Tomorrow, Mr. West will enter a year that will undoubtedly change his life. As of now, we know that his 35th year will include a new, little bundle of Kardashian entering into the world, a new album titled Yeezus, and a performance at this weekend's Governors Ball. We also hope this stylish, goatee'd man will continue to make the hip-hop scene gasp at his taste for Margiela masks and Givenchy man-skirts. Click through his look book to relive his fashion history, or just click on the video below to fall back in love with Kanye from his younger days.

Netflix Makes iOS Binge-Viewers Happy With New Update
By Christina Warren2013-05-09 17:32:25 UTCNetflix has added its slick post-play feature to its iOS apps.
The feature was originally introduced last August for the web player, PS3 and Xbox 360 and it allows users to watch more content automatically without having to tinker with the remote or user interface.
When watching a TV show, the next episode automatically cues up and will start as soon as the current episode ends. This is awesome when binge watching episodes of your favorite series — or of a newly discovered favorite.
For movies, users get a choice of three movie recommendations that can be selected for easy, fast playback. Movies don't start automatically, so you don't have to worry abut getting sucked into something you don't want to watch.
We can't help but think that the roll out of post-play is tied indirectly with the upcoming fourth season of Arrested Development. That's a show plenty of fans (myself included) are sure to binge-watch in quick succession.
Netflix isn't the only company that is dabbling with the idea of continuous watching. Hulu Plus has had a continuous watch feature in place for quite some time across its apps.
While Netflix hasn't updated the Apple TV to support post-play, we hope it's just around the corner. To get post-play for your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, update your Netflix app [iTunes link] or download it from the App Store.

Happy 10th Birthday, LinkedIn!
By Seth Fiegerman2013-05-06 16:52:05 UTCBack on May 5, 2003, Reed Hoffman launched LinkedIn in his living room and asked several hundred of his friends and colleagues to join. Ten years later, the social network for professionals has more than 200 million users, 3,700 employees and 26 offices around the world.
Looking back, it almost seems inevitable that LinkedIn would become a huge hit, but it took awhile before the network really started to take off. On some days, as few as 20 people signed up to use the service.
"At the end of our first month, we had 4,500 members in the network," Hoffman wrote in a post Sunday to commemorate the 10th anniversary of launching LinkedIn. "10 years later, we’re honored and humbled that so many of you have made LinkedIn a part of your daily professional lives."
It's an accomplishment for a startup in any industry to survive for a decade, but it's particularly impressive for Internet companies to enjoy that kind of longevity. LinkedIn was founded in the aftermath of the Dot-Com bust, at a time when the biggest social networks were Friendster and MySpace.
LinkedIn launched before most of the social networks that are considered big players today. It's about a year older than Facebook, three years older than Twitter and eight years older than Google+ — though it's younger than Google itself, which launched in 1998.
Unlike some of its competitors, LinkedIn's team focused early on creating a business model. In 2005, two years after launching, LinkedIn introduced job listings and tiered subscriptions to generate revenue. Now, LinkedIn is generating more than $300 million in revenue each quarter.
To celebrate its first decade as a company, LinkedIn put out a collection of pictures showing how the website has evolved over the years from a relatively static page with some basic information about your professional connections to a dynamic social network for businesses and individuals alike.
