Here are this week’s top stories.
How to use Music Memos like your personal backup band

How to plug your guitar into your iPhone and rock out
Short of learning air guitar, hooking a guitar up to your iPhone is just about the easiest way to get started playing music. But it’s not just for practice, or goofing around at home. You can record and edit serious music with an iOS device, and even produce whole records.
Tekserve’s Apple artifacts wind up in Ukrainian museum
