Party buses are designed for fun and debauchery. They can be rented to
help individuals celebrate virtually any event, but are especially
popular for weddings and bachelor/bachelorette parties. With a party bus
you get a designated driver, and a place to keep the party going
without pause while en route to the next club or bar. The only problem
with partying that hard is that you’re going to feel it in the morning,
so some smart individuals ran with the party bus concept, and made a
party bus solution.

As you develop and build your business, you will find that you need certain types of software tools. At the initial start-up of your business, money can be tight, and many software programs offer a trial program. Once your business grows larger, you will be able to afford better software and full versions.

We usually associate Target more with bargain pricing than technology leadership, but the big-box retailer is about to defy those expectations with plans for a startup incubator in Bangalore, India. When it launches in January, the Target Accelerator Program will finance young tech firms specializing in content aggregation, data, mobile and search. Only one or two companies will make the cut each year, but Target hopes that their projects will improve our shopping experience.

The world needs more social networks like it needs more politicians. Then again, we’ve got some time for Potluck, if only because the service is financially backed by Ev Williams and Biz Stone — two guys who have form when it comes to spotting a good idea. Potluck’s iOS app, which has just benefited from a major overhaul, throws curated news stories at you one by one. Then it asks you to tap “yay” or “nay” depending on whether you find the topic enticing — a bit like the way Tinder works, but applied to headlines instead of scary faces. If a particular story sparks your imagination and urge to banter, the app connects you with friends who’ve read the same article so that you can right the world’s wrongs together. Or, you know, find even nastier things to say about poor old Miley Cyrus.

As a major advocate for purchasing and consuming local foods, and a
produce-loving vegetarian, farmer’s markets are among my favorite things
in the world.  The only problem is that farmer’s markets aren’t
everywhere when you need them. While there’s still a way to go before
everyone has unlimited, easy access to locally grown produce, businesses
like The Fresh Moves bus in Chicago aim to change that.
