the grid board game enthusiast paul
miller let's spend 90 seconds on the
verge Aereo the streaming television
service from billionaire mogul Barry
Diller has announced some aggressive new
price tiers Aereo streams broadcast
television over the internet a tactic
which has drawn the ire of TV providers
like ABC NBC CBS and Fox the service is
currently only available in New York
City but the company has ambitious plans
to expand the service to most major
markets by next year I've just learned
that rise of the Triads back the classic
over the top shooter from the 90s is
being remade by Danish studio
interceptor entertainment and we'll use
Unreal Engine 3 for no apparent reason
players can choose from one of five
characters and blast through the occult
in all new levels playing in such
classic modes of god mode dog mode and
my favorite shroom mode rise of the
Triads is coming later this year to
steam you can expect lots of fast-paced
action and gobs of blood and finally
facebook today launched stories as the
name suggests the new site aims to
collect interesting stories based on a
different theme each month stories can
include videos articles from across the
web and other contributions from
facebook users the first month is
centered on the theme of remembering
like remember when Facebook stock was
really promising that's it for today's
