Apparently, the Google guys are preparing to open its own chain of stores near the end of the year, where you can buy your best products, such as the Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Chromebooks, among other things, not to mention Glass famous sunglasses.

The report comes from the same place where the first news leaked about the project Glass, so it's a pretty reliable source. The idea behind the store is so consumers can be easily done with Nexus devices, Chrome OS devices and other products that are on the way. The company believes that many people need to have a product in their hands before daring to buy, and physical stores would solve this problem.

The Google Glass is one of the main reasons why the search engine company wants to open a chain of stores, since many people will not be able to realize their potential without testing them first.

No one knows where these stores are located, but is likely to be launched initially in some major capital of the world, such as London, Paris, Berlin, etc.., Obviously besides New York, even if not a capital.

Surely many are afraid that their precious social network account is hacked Facebook, especially if it is a very protected profile and can only visit family and friends. However, recently, the company has admitted that his famous website was hacked in January, and it happened when some of the team members were infected with malware in their laptops without knowing it.

Although it has been suggested that the attack was sophisticated, we can now rest assured that as the social network of any user no data has been compromised. The company's official statement reads:

"Last month, Facebook Security discovered that our systems were the target of a sophisticated attack. The attack occurred when several employees visited a website that was compromised development. The site in question contained an exploit that could install malware on visiting teams. The laptops were fully updated and ran antivirus current analysis. As soon was discovered the presence of malware, clean the affected machines immediately inform law and began an arduous investigation that continues to this day. "

So far not much is known about it. Hopefully the people of Facebook again soon and make another statement that their employees be more careful.

In recent days we have been talking a lot about the Sony PS4 and Microsoft Xbox 720, the two most anticipated video game consoles of the year. Now we have news on the PlayStation 4.

According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, there is probably a streaming service available for the PS4. This service will be used for streaming titles in our new PS3 console directly, so we can play them via the Internet. Apparently the stream will be exclusive to PS3 games, as the new PS4 will have to play them directly from the optical disk. The new technology will be presented on Wednesday 20 along with the new console.

Is this possible? Well yes it is, and there is a fact that would confirm: Gaikai purchase by Sony last year. Gaikai is an online gaming service, so it is very likely that Sony wants to get the most out of your purchase. We're not quite sure how Sony plans to implement this service to the PS4, but certainly will be something worth seeing.

Remember, the future console will come out on Wednesday February 20.

GRID 2 is a new car racing game being developed by Codemasters. It is the sequel to another title of the same gender, Race Driver: Grid, which was released in 2008 and received rave reviews from both magazines and analysts as the players themselves. GRID will be released for PS3, Xbox 360 and Windows in late May in Europe and North America.

About the game will know little. Apparently racetracks will completely real in locations such as in the case of cities like Abu Dhabi, Paris and some other U.S.. Besides, auto varied and include several years, with models in total 4 different decades. One of the strongest points of the game is its new operating system, known as "TrueFeel" and able to provide a similar experience to that of a real car, as told by Codemasters. Something worth noting is that it will have a cockpit view (or first person in this case), since apparently only 5% of players make use of it, so it would not be necessary to include in the game.

Below you can see a recent gameplay video that shows a little of what GRID 2 will offer:
