SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — After laying off more than 300 workers,Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey is trying to lift the spirits of the remaining employees by giving them 6.8 million shares of the stock he owns in the online messaging service.
Dorsey is giving up the stock, currently worth more than $200 million, so Twitter can award the shares to its employees, according to documents filed Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The gesture comes a week after Dorsey laid off 8 percent of Twitter's workforce in an effort to make the company profitable for the first time in its nine-year history. The gift represents nearly one-third of the stock Dorsey owns in the San Francisco company.
We speak to one avid online gamer about how the medium is replacing traditional social media.
Harrison, 16, reveals how a new generation is turning to Xbox and PlayStation as a way to stay in touch with friends and meet new people.
Harrison says: Online multiplayer gaming is like Facebook, but there are far more things to do. It’s just a more entertaining way to be in touch with people.
It’s a great way to stay in touch with my friends and I’ve also made new friends in games who I’ve go on to meet away from the screen.
It’s no longer just entertainment. It’s a new kind of experience. Online gaming on PayStation 4 or Xbox One basically IS a social network. I can instantly see what my friends are up to, and choose whether or not to join in.
When we ‘meet up’, we don’t just shoot each other. There’s lots of ways to interact in online games, whether it’s just sending a message or actually making some sort of in game gesture. Even something stupid like dancing.
If I do something amazing in game, I can also share pictures and video direct to Twitter or Facebook which makes the whole experience even more ‘social’.
Although I will play almost any game, I play online games more than any others. It’s just more satisfying and enjoyable to play with a human being rather than a computer.
When it comes to playing against the computer it’s easy to get bored. If it’s a real person there, it keeps you interested.
Games without multiplayer aren’t over, though. There are just new ways to play. There are plenty of games where you are playing a single-player story, but there just happen to be other people around.
'Destiny' is a good example. You never have to shoot your mates if you don’t want to.
'Destiny' is online right from the very beginning, but you have the option of completing the game by yourself or with others. It’s a great way to stay connected with people. Personally, I really enjoy that way of playing.
I know some people might find it odd, but it’s totally normal for me to wear a headset while playing and talk to other gamers - both people I know and people I don’t.
If someone is sending you a text message, it’s usually because either they don’t know you or their headset has broken and they are waiting for a new one. I think most online players will be able to relate to this!
Microsoft just unveiled its first laptop — and it says it's twice as fast as a Macbook Pro

(Screenshot) Microsoft on Tuesday unveiled its first laptop: the Microsoft Surface Book, a 13-inch touch-screen device that also comes apart to become a tablet.
"This is the ultimate laptop," Microsoft's Panos Panay said.
It has two processors and a dedicated graphics-card system. Microsoft says the laptop is twice as fast as a Macbook Pro.
Pricing starts at $1,499, and the laptop will be available on October 26.
As with all devices in the Surface line, the Surface Book can detach from its keyboard to become a tablet. The keyboard can then dock on the back of the tablet to keep it all together. It also uses the Surface Pen stylus that comes with Surface tablets.

(Microsoft) The Surface Book has a unique hinge.It's designed to add more power than the Surface Pro 4, also announced Tuesday. It's for gamers and any enterprise worker who needs more graphical horsepower under the hood. In fact, the Xbox team contributed its graphical expertise, Panay said.
Panay showed off how smoothly Windows 10 games like "Gears of War" and "Gigantic" ran on the Surface Book, even while using video-editing software to record game footage.
Interestingly, the graphics card lies in the keyboard unit, which means you will lose some horsepower while it's unplugged — at a likely gain to battery life.
Plus, it has a super-quiet, backlit keyboard, Microsoft promises, with a great typing experience. It also sports a promised 12-hour battery life.

The idea of a laptop that's also a tablet isn't exactly new: PC manufacturers like Lenovo have for some time been making similar "convertible" units that fold in on themselves to become a laptop.
But by making the keyboard detachable, and by giving it a ton of horsepower, it seems Microsoft has been really thinking through the design of this device.
Microsoft has announced through their Lumia Facebook page that the global rollout of Windows 10 Mobile will begin this December, bringing the company's completely revamped mobile operating system to older Windows Phones before the end of the year.
The statement from a Microsoft representative on Windows 10 Mobile upgrades is as follows:
Windows 10 is available on PCs and tablets now, and while Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL ship with Windows 10 for phones, broad availability of Windows 10 on other devices, including mobile phones, will begin rolling out in December.
