Twitter lets users share block lists

If you’ve been a victim of trolls and online harassment on Twitter, the block feature and block lists are probably some of your favorite things. Now, making it easier for you to help out friends who want to cut out the noise and chaos, you can now export your block list to share with others. You can also now import block lists via the block page on your Twitter account. Rollout isn’t widespread yet but the feature should be coming to you soon.

Facebook Messenger introduces game component with ‘Doodle Draw’

If you’ve played Draw Something before, you’ll be able to play Doodle Draw, an iOS and Android app that works with Messenger. Facebook recently introduced third-party apps into its messaging app and Doodle Draw is one of the over 40 apps available. Basically, you pick one out of three words to draw a picture off on your phone, you then send this to your Facebook friend for them to guess what you drew. If your friend has the app, it’ll take them to the app. If they don’t have the game, they can still see the artwork within Messenger and reply from there.

Microsoft introduces massive 84-inch Surface Hub wall for businesses

While it would probably be great to have a gigantic 4K 84-inch Surface display at home, the recently introduced Microsoft Surface Hub is made for businesses. It helps facilitate meetings in offices. If you want to see it in action, you’ll have to head to a Microsoft Store later this summer. It’ll probably be on display when we’re closer to the Windows 10 launch. You can see the Surface Hub in action in the video above.

Mercedes-Benz takes on Tesla for home batteries

We think a little competition never hurt anyone so it’s good that Mercedes-Benz is releasing its own version of a battery pack for the home. These battery packs are designed like Tesla’s in that they’re filled with cells designed for cars at first. They load up on solar energy that you can store overnight and draw from the gird during off-peak hours. You can combine up to eight packs, which have 2.5kWh each. Mercedes-Benz is also said to be offering higher storage options for larger consumption.

It’ll be available starting September in Germany through the company’s subsidiary Accumotive. They’re taking registrations for it now. There is no word on pricing yet though.
