San Diego's Comic-Con is sure to yield many exciting surprises. The teaser trailer for Netflix exclusive Defenders, which features the immortal voice of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain singing "Come as You Are," shows that Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage an Iron Fist are the designated foursome to form the Defenders supergroup being apparently guided by no other than Daredevil's mentor Stick.

WhatsApp brings voicemail and call back options to Android beta app

If you’re using the beta version of WhatsApp on Android, the messaging app is bringing some new useful features. One is bringing voicemail to the service. It comes at a good time as some people are replacing the traditional messaging and phone apps to use the likes of WhatsApp and its other competitors. Aside from that, the app also gets a call back feature.

For the voicemail feature, you’ll be able to use it when you call someone in your list and if they don’t answer, you get three options. One is to call again, cancel the call, or “Record voice message.” If you choose the last option, you’ll be taken to a different screen to record your voice message. If you want to try this out, you can gain access to the beta app via this link.
