It appears that Yahoo's search for a suitor is nearing its bitter end. Sources report that a sale of Yahoo's search business to Verizon is imminent. This doesn't come as much of a surprise. We've all read the leaks and speculation and Verizon has been a front-runner for a while, due in part to its massive pile of cash and its ability and desire to patch together a digital media empire along with its purchase of AOL. Seems like a game of Monopoly to us.

Fresh off yesterday's announcement of a phone case that stops government surveillance, NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden appeared at a secret Comic-Con screening of the film Snowden by Oliver Stone.

The New York Times reports that internet celebrity Jack Johnson has been hacking his fans accounts. How? He asked for their credentials and tens of thousands of them complied. The YouTube and Vine star then left funny videos on the fans Twitter account, playing keyboard, doing somersaults, or praising their pinned tweets with the hashtag, HackedByJohnson. The Times says those kids who handed over their passwords knew exactly what they were doing and it was a normal act of teenage rebellion.

Amazon drones are yet to deliver sneakers to my home, but 7-Eleven has completed its maiden home drone delivery, dropping off Slurpees, a chicken sandwich, donuts, hot coffee and candy directly to somebody's front door. 7-Eleven partnerered with drone company Flirty to make the FAA approved delivery. Last year we told you about Flirty's first delivery ever, which was to deliver medical supplies from an airfield to a medical clinic. Slurpees are a far cry from medical supplies. But the coffee is another story.

All is revealed with Elon Musk's Master Plan and it goes something like this: Tesla Solar is not really new, but newly important...or so Musk would have us believe. The idea is essentially an app store, but instead of apps it's sun power that Tesla wants to control. Musk also revealed the Tesla Semi - a ginormous solar commercial vehicle to be revealed next year. And the cake topper: the future ability to share your Tesla with a push of a button so you can make money from your super expensive car when you're not using it. Also, if you're going to successfully run one of the most popular places for people to find unofficial copies of movies and TV shows, you might think twice before you open a Facebook account for your business. Leslie Jones is back on Twitter, and we decided this means good is winning. Owen talks about the Hover Cam, the Bagel, Mirror's Edge, and Uncharted. Plus, one of Facebook's Internet drones has taken its first flight.
