Are you one of those people who like to listen to your song of the moment over and over? If so, there’s good news if you use Spotify for your tunes, as the company has added the option to repeat a single track — a basic but missing part of its experience.
Initially available on the desktop client only, the feature is activated by toggling the repeat button located on the player bar at the bottom until it shows the ‘repeat one’ icon in the screenshot below. The option will land on the iOS and Android apps with the next updates, the company says.

Google’s Chromecast is reportedly landing in Australia this year, could see content from Telstra

Google’s Chromecast is reportedly launching in Australia later this year and possibly with content from Telstra’s BigPond media assets, according to The Australian (hat/tip Matthew Keys).
Australian telecom firm Telstra has been in talks with Google on various ways to get content from BigPond, including movies and online sports programs, onto the Chromecast device, The Australian reports. Telstra engineers are also exploring the option of embedding Chromecast functionality into Telstra’s own digital media player, the T-Box. Telstra and Google have both declined to comment to the newspaper.
This latest news comes after it was revealed that Google’s Chromecast was finally expanding beyond the US with a launch in the UK within weeks. All these moves hint at Google’s ambitions for the device – which some had feared would end up like the mostly unsuccessful Google TV.

As he promised yesterday, Dong Nguyen, the developer of hit game Flappy Bird has pulled the game from availability on both Android and iOS (although its App Store page is still live at the time of writing.) In what look like a classic case of the artist growing to hate his creation, he tweeted yesterday “I cannot take this anymore,” and refused to sell the game on to any other publisher.
If you missed what the fuss was all about with this simple and fiendishly difficult game, there are plenty of Flappy Bird clones available, including one for Android that appears to have taken advantage of the death of its inspiration and changed its name from Flappy Bird 3D, to Flappy Bird – cunning.
Don’t miss: Flappy Bird is a validation for Asia’s messaging app giants and their global plans
