Bring Your Pet to Work Day made Friday the furriest, cutest and maybe stinkiest day of the year for workplaces. Despite the inevitable, err, accidents, having puppies everywhere is a foolproof way to make every office environment better

In Mashable‘s quest to have puppies everywhere, we decided we needed MORE PUPPIES. So the humans over at BarkBox stopped by with three adorable and adoptable mini dogs.

Microsoft Heeds Gamer Feedback, Dumps Xbox One DRM Restrictions

ps4Attention gamers: you win. The folks at Redmond infuriated many when it revealed that the Xbox One would come with a long list of potential caveats — there was the automated 24 hour check-in to keep the console in playable condition, and the restrictions on who you could share disc-based games with, not to mention the fact that it would shipped region-locked.
Unsurprisingly, the gaming community lashed out in a big way, and Microsoft is finally doing something about it. According to a recent mea culpa from Microsoft Interactive Entertainment President Don Mattrick, the company has suddenly decided to drop all that nonsense due to an outpouring of (largely negative) feedback.
