Google Carpools Google will expand its car-sharing service piloted this spring in San Francisco through Waze, which Google bought in 2013. Certain users have been able to track commuters through the Waze app, and hail a shared ride for a low fee. The service, though, is not an on-demand ride the way Uber and Lyft works. Basically you're hitching a ride with someone who may be going your way, and chipping in for some of the gas. (The driver will set a fee, which The Wall Street Journal reports is 54 cents a mile.) The idea is not that far off from the Casual Carpool service which launched in San Francisco, and grew exponentially during the 1990s, helping to give riders free lifts typically from the East Bay to San Francisco (or the reverse) and allowing drivers to then use HOV lanes to get more quickly to their destination. Now, though, you'll be able to carpool across San Francisco for a fee—and from anywhere you can see someone driving by on Waze.

Shotgun Blast Downs Drone Robert Duvall's neighbor saw a drone flying too close to his home, and did the neighborly thing—blowing a hole in the drone and bringing it crashing to the ground. Jennifer Youngman who lives in Virginia, pulled out a .20 gauge shotgun, and hit the drone twice as it flew near her home after inspecting Duvall's. The pilots apparently, and understandably, weren't thrilled with their bullet-ridden device. (Via CNET)
