“Will dogs be surfing the internet?” and more theories about how the future will unfold: Netflix and The Verge teamed up to bring The Future Of docuseries, which consists of episodes that each discuss a certain topic or aspect of our lives and how the future will see it change. Each episode is bite-sized, running at around 20 minutes, with the released episodes looking at dogs, dating, houseplants, gaming, space vacations, and cheeseburgers. A lot of what could drive drastic change is the incorporation of tech into everything in our lives, from using biometric data to find your perfect match to using food tech to reimagine your favorite comfort food. More new episodes will be released next Tuesday, but the topics have yet to be disclosed.

How to collaborate in a purposeful and efficient way: In Beyond Collaboration Overload, Rob Cross looks at the idea of collaboration in a workplace and how it has become essential to continuing operations and growing a business. Collaborative work consumes 85% of employees’ time and is slowly inching into all times of the day after the remote work era of the pandemic. The wrong kind of collaboration can hurt employees’ performance, health and overall well-being, argues Cross who instead attempts to show a different approach to teamwork. His strategy outlines when collaboration is necessary and when it isn’t as well as how to motivate and energize others to work together. If put to use, the methods in the book promise to “coach you to reclaim close to a day a week.”
