| Netflix to introduce social features in 2013 Posted: 28 Dec 2012 01:58 AM PST
You probably already know that Netflix already allows non-US customers to post what they're watching on Facebook, the same way they can share music they're listening to or articles they're reading. But not in the U.S. That is currently illegal thanks to provisions in the Video Privacy Protection Act. The new bill amends things so that users can share what they are watching. Netflix wants it’s users to have more social features and soon they will.

| Diablo 3 Team Deathmatch Scrapped, Dueling Alive & Well Posted: 27 Dec 2012 01:09 PM PST Diablo 3′s Team Deathmatch is not coming out in its current form, according to Diablo 3 Lead Designer Jay Wilson. The anticipated game mode is technically finished, but simply not providing the level of long term engagement Blizzard was hoping for. “Simply fighting each other with no other objectives or choices to make gets old relatively quickly. We’ve brought a lot of people in to try out Team Deathmatch and, while some found it entertaining, most of our testers didn’t feel like it was something they’d want to do beyond a few hours,” said Wilson.
