It's March 8, 2022—International Women's Day! We shouldn't have to tell you, but spend some time today reflecting on everything women have accomplished around the world, and how we can continue to improve gender equality. Seriously, it's important.  ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): 255 articles, 7 podcasts, 4 press releases, 222 tweets, and 11 YouTube videos 1. Apple TV+ Comes to Xfinity, Offers Free Previews Apple TV+ has arrived on Comcast's Xfinity X1, Xfinity Flex, and XClass TV.

Tempting. Very tempting. 2. Apple's New Time to Walk Episode Features Malala Yousafzai Apple Fitness+ subscribers have a new Time to Walk episode featuring Pakistani activist and Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Malala Yousafzai.

The channel will be free for all to enjoy, and will have the revitalized versions of G4's legacy programs like Xplay, Ninja Warrior, and Attack the Show!, plus original content like esports events and some new series.

We'll see. 🎱 By the Numbers A lot of people checking their wrists  Data: Business of Apps Apple Watches are still popular, but their sales performance slowed down in 2021, only adding ~3 million watches to Apple's total.
