WordPress resets 100,000 after Gmail leak

64-bit Chrome to come to OS X in November

Google will be releasing the official non-beta version of Chrome Web browser on Mac’s OS X in November. However, they won’t be releasing the 32-bit version and would only have 64-bit available for Apple users.

According to a blog post from Google: “Unlike on Windows, where Chrome is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit, on Mac, Chrome will only be available in 64-bit with version 39 and after. As a result, 32-bit NPAPI plugins will not work on Chrome on Mac version 39 onwards.”

WordPress resets 100,000 accounts after Gmail leak

WordPress is taking precautionary measures after five million Gmail accounts were leaked over at a Russian Bitcoin forum. They have reset 100,000 accounts that share passwords with the associated Gmail accounts. Those who were affected need to login over at the homepage and request for a new password.

Automattic’s Daryl Houston said they have sent out emails to the users to notify affected users to reset passwords and gain access to the account.

8Tracks for Android gets new navigation features to look for mixes

8Tracks has just updated its Android app to get new navigation features first since on the iPhone version earlier this year. It is now easier for you to discover great music through the app. It will help you search for new songs using genre- or mood-based options. You can swap genres by just swiping in the left sidebar. And the songs won’t stop even though you browse through all the mixes you want to look at with the persistent player present at the bottom of the app.
