Google today has released a major update to its Wallet app on iOS, completely redesigning and repurposing it. Similar to an update released to the Android version of the app earlier this year, the update gives the app a focus on sending money between users, rather than paying for goods from merchants. The new Wallet app on iOS offers an entirely refreshed interface that Google says makes it easy to send money to anyone in the United Sates....

Alex Karev was Grey’s Anatomy’s underdog when the series first premiered in 2005. Shonda Rhimes originally wrote the series to focus on four main interns (Meredith, Cristina, Izzie, and George) rather than what would eventually become five with the introduction of Alex Karev. This character was created because the show needed a lovable jackass, so that’s exactly what they got with Alex. He wasn’t included in the better part of filming for the pilot episode, and was later edited into some significant scenes....

As Google says, an archive of all public communities will become available but starting from today, it will be impossible to create an Orkut account. Also, by removing Orkut permanently from your Google account, your posts or name won’t be included in the community archive. Also, former Orkut users will be unable to log in or export their photo albums to Google+ once the service gets closed. This is an unexpected move, as it would’ve made more sense for Google to allow this, and it would’ve helped to increase the number of active Google Plus users, as well....

Be advised, major plot spoilers for Gretel & Hansel are included below. Orion Pictures’ dark fairy tale Gretel & Hansel is now in theaters, backed by mostly good reviews, but it’s unclear if a sequel will happen. Nowadays, it’s getting rarer and rarer that original horror films like Gretel & Hansel even get a wide release. While it’s based on a classic fairy tale, it’s far from a straight adaptation, and definitely feels like a unique breath of fresh air in an age with sequels, remakes, and reboots dominating the studio horror landscape....

Grey’s Anatomy has produced some of television’s best loved characters over the 15 years it’s been on air. Although the series predominantly follows the life of its fictional namesake, Meredith Grey, many other characters have also been given the chance to shine, and some have even become fan-favorites in their own right. However, there have also been other characters on the show who had a relatively bumpy start. For whatever reason, sometimes new additions to the main cast just wouldn’t click with the viewers, at least not initially....

WARNING: This article contains SPOILERS for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 - The news may surfaced ahead of schedule thanks to some foreign websites, but Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 junior novelization confirmed it ahead of the first screenings of the movie: Sylvester Stallone’s role is that of Stakar Ogord, better known as the superhero Starhawk. Exactly which character from Marvel’s cosmic lore Stallone would be appearing as, and what role he would play going forward hasn’t been clear given the character’s brief first look in teaser footage played last summer at San Diego Comic-Con but given director James Gunn’s interest in telling original stories not simply adapting existing characters whole cloth, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that this incarnation of Starhawk is something new....

Cybersecurity researchers at Proofpoint say advanced persistent threat (APT) groups working on behalf of Russian, Chinese and Indian interests are using rich text format (RTF) template injections. While the use of RTF text file attachments in phishing emails isn’t new, the technique being used by hackers is easier to deploy and more effective because it’s harder for antivirus software to detect – and many organisations won’t block RTF files by default because they’re part of everyday business operations....
