Saturday Flashback: January 2013

It’s the future, and we don’t have flying cars—but we do have archives of chasm-filling proportions. For this week’s retrospective I’m going back to January 2013, when Apple Maps was a joke, the base-breaking royal was the Duchess of Cambridge, and Oprah got Lance Armstrong to come clean about being dirty. There’s a lot of interesting stuff from back then—including a weird plotline coincidence about wizards, kings, and royal conspiracies. Take a look through stories you might not know or maybe forgot.

Next update is 25 January. In the meantime, thanks for visiting and enjoy the site.
