Inbox — A 9to5Google newsletter

Good morning, hope you had a great weekend. Today I’m reading about Anthony Bourdain’s early years, depicted through the film Tony releasing this week, listening to Broken Social Scene’s new album after seeing them live this weekend, merging all my chats in the new version of Beeper, and finding open-source alternatives to everything at OpenAltFinder.

Tomorrow is basically Christmas for the 9to5Google editors. Google is announcing its latest batch of phones, tablets, and accessories (?). Based on the bevy of leaks over the past few weeks, I’m not anticipating any major surprises, but it’s still a good time to be a phone fan.

As a reminder, Inbox is the tech newsletter you should be able to read in around 95 seconds. We cover the most important 9to5Google stories from the last couple of days along with a few highlights from around the web. We publish every Tuesday and Thursday, and if you like what you read, please subscribe.

Good morning. Today I’m reading about just how sophisticated OpenAI’s Hugging Face hack really was, and how we may soon talk telepathically to our AI agents. I’m finishing up Silo season 3 and actively avoiding Ted Lasso season 4. I’m also trying out Ozlo’s new Sleepbuds 2, which apparently improve on the original’s sound quality and battery life.

Hey, how’s it going? I hope you had a lovely weekend. I was off last week, relaxing by the water, trying to finish a harrowing Booker Prize-winning novel about Australian POWs during WWII, rekindling my love for Love & Basketball, and playing far too much Lumines Remastered on my Fold 8. I also caught up on the latest drama between OpenAI and Anthropic and briefly considered switching to Deezer just so I could whip the llama’s ass one more time.

Hey there, it’s Thursday and that means we’re one day closer to the weekend. What are you up to? I’m currently deciding what color Fold 8 to buy, listening to the excellent (and weird) new Strokes album, and installing a 26B parameter Gemma 4 model on an 8GB MacBook Air.

Welcome to Inbox, I hope you had a lovely weekend. I’m on vacation this week, which means when I’m not failing to ignore my own inbox, I’m hoping to read a few books that have been sitting on my to-read shelf since the spring. What are you reading these days? Let me know by replying to this email or leaving a comment on the site.

Welcome back to Inbox, hope you’re enjoying your Thursday so far. Yesterday was a busy day for all of us and, mea culpa, I accidentally pressed send on a newsletter detailing the new Samsung foldables and wearables before it had been edited. As a pretty uncompromising editor myself, I can only believe this is the universe’s (or my former writers’) way of getting me back. Big L on my part.

Welcome back to Inbox, hope you had a nice weekend, particularly if you were cheering for a certain European football team. Given Argentina’s late-game heroics throughout the World Cup, I’m surprised there were no last-minute goals to tie things up, but I’ll admit that Spain was the better team throughout the match.

Still, if you’re in North America, I think this recent headline from The Onion is spot on: Nation Wakes Up From Strange Dream Where They Were Watching Soccer. For the rest of the world, the countdown to World Cup 2030 starts…now.

Welcome back to Inbox, hope you’re having a great Thursday so far. Yesterday, like many people in the northeast, I woke up to smoky skies and an acrid haze I could practically taste. Things definitely feel a little apocalyptic, but at least we have a World Cup Final match to look forward to this weekend. Go Argentina!

Welcome to the inaugural issue of Inbox by 9to5Google, a newsletter that’s also a love letter to the days when email (and email apps) were simpler and more opinionated.

To start, we’ll be sending issues on Tuesday and Thursday, but hopefully with time we’ll be able to add more daily sends. And don’t worry, Ben’s excellent Weekender newsletter will continue to be published every Sunday afternoon.

Inbox is the tech newsletter you should be able to read in 95 seconds or less. We’ll cover the most important story from the previous day along with a few highlights from around the web.

Ready? Let’s get started.
