Internet

There are a few websites that I keep going back to time after time. One of these sites is Craig’s list. It is one of the best and easiest sites to use. The best part is that there are so many things to look at. I like to browse through the for sale section and see what kind of values I can find. I also like the discussion forums (If the idiots would stay off it).

It’s also cool to look through the things that people are giving away for free. I have gotten a lot of firewood from this site. Just bring a truck and come get it! From time to time I have made a post or two and have gotten responses. It’s easy to clean out your garage and not have to worry about going to the dump. Just put it on Craig’s list!

Well, it looks like I need to do another update. This WordPress platform is really good and I know they have a lot of volunteers working hard to make it even better. But wow, it seems like everytime I log in to my dashboard I have a message that I need to update my WordPress application. This is starting to be a real drag. Between WordPress and Firefox sending out constant updates I feel like a slave to my computer.

All my friends are busy making a Facebook page and making “friends.” I wonder what the buzz is all about? I thought having a blog would be the best way to keep my peeps informed. Now I might have to spend even more time on the internet with a Facebook page.

The new Internet Explorer release does not impress me any more. I used to really look forward to the new versions – they always seemed to have an assortment of new features that made things faster, easier, more logical, etc. But ever since I switched to Firefox, I could care less what other browsers promise. I’m just not interested in IE or even Google’s new Chrome anymore.

Yahoo Games has a link with their take on what 7 video games “changed the world.”

Their countdown includes:

  1. Pong
  2. Pacman
  3. Doom
  4. Dance Dance Revolution
  5. World of Warcraft
  6. Guitar Hero
  7. Wii Sports

Not sure that I agree with Dance Dance, but if you want to read their reasons for these picks you can read the click show on their site link.
