Windows 11 now has its own built-in color picker tool


Forget installing a random, third-party color picker just to learn the HEX values for a particularly pleasing hue on your screen -- Microsoft is gracing Windows 11 users with a built-in utility.
The Windows 11 color picker is part of the impressive (and increasingly so) Snipping Tool, and it is very similar to the Color Picker module found in PowerToys. While this may seem like a small, niche tool, we'd be very surprised if you don't find a use for it in the future -- but there is at least one disadvantage when compared to the PowerToys utility.
Canva acquires Affinity


Canva, the online design platform, has announced a significant expansion of its business. You see, the company has acquired Affinity, a popular creative software platform used by over three million creative professionals worldwide.
With over 175 million users, Canva has already made a significant impact. However, the company apparently believes there is still much more to achieve. By integrating Affinity’s award-winning suite of professional design software, Canva is aiming to address the needs of every kind of designer, from novices to seasoned professionals.
