Still Not The Edit Tweet Feature: Twitter Is Quietly Testing “Undo Send” Button
Source: NurPhoto / Getty All we want is an edit button, but Twitter is testing and giving us everything else but the one feature we are screaming for.

Young Carter Go Farther: Jay-Z Changed Handle On Twitter To Mr. Carter
Source: (Photo by Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Roc Nation) / (Photo by Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for Roc Nation) Jay-Z‘s birth-given name has been known for decades, and his sparse use of social media is just one part of the many veils of the rapper and businessman’s persona.

Liverpool’s centre-back crisis worsens as manager confirms Ozan Kabak injury
Kabak was brought into Anfield during the January transfer window following a series of injuries at centre-back for Liverpool. The 20-year-old has not made an ideal start to life in the Premier League.

Kabak is now believed to be a doubt for the visit of relegation strugglers Fulham, as reported by Times journalist Paul Joyce on Twitter. The extent of his problem is currently unknown. The loanee ...
