Blankets of WiFi
Google and Salesforce interested in Twitter
Megan Morrone and Jason Howell discuss how Facebook's video metrics have been inaccurate for two years, and advertisers aren't happy. Samsung says almost everyone is trading their faulty Note 7 devices for replacements. Apple is hard at work on its home appliance with Siri, and it might have facial recognition for identification. Google and Salesforce are two possible suitors kicking the tires at Twitter. Finally, Rez Infinite for PlayStation VR almost made Sam Machkovech from Ars Technica weep, it's that good!
