This article notifies the world that the CIA wants to spy on you through your TV and has the means just to do so. Anytime you download a movie from Netflix to your television or turn on a Internet-based radio, you could be alerting people who you don't want or need watching you. The CIA organization will not need to plant bugs in homes or other places to spy on individuals because of coming advances in computer and Internet technology. Just by people purchasing and using new apps and various "connected" devices, people will essentially be bugging their own homes. The CIA agency and others will be able to "read" these and other gadgets from outside places to monitor via the Internet and perhaps even with radio waves outside your home. This is astonishing information and what makes it even more surprising is it can get worse, it the sense that everything, not just electronics, will be controlled by an app or chip, and will ultimately be viewed and seen by outside sources. This is a scary idea that can be put to action and that fact that we won't even be secure and safe in our homes because there may always be someone watching us and viewing what we are doing. I understand technology is helping us in our everyday lives, but I feel this is too far and the government is now using there means of advancing technology against society. They have the power and resources to possibly monitor and maybe to control what we go on the Internet or what we watch on TV and this will alter our once safe and comfortable environment to have the freedom to use technology how we like in our home.

What is Microsoft thinking!? You can't release a major version of an OS that is used by about 90% of the market and just remove something everyone has been using for the past decade. I tried the Windows 8 Developer Preview and Metro is OK, but it's not something you seriously want to use with a mouse, which is a problem for business that don't spend money on touch screens, mainly because their employees don't need them. But now they go ahead and remove the start button completely, making it a hot corner instead, which can be really hard to use at times. When I'm at my computer, I want to be productive, and the standard start menu is the way to do that. I like pretty interfaces, but I also like things that just work, and that's what the start menu is to me. Long story short, if you have an OS as big as Windows, don't make big UI changes like this, because it can really turn out bad and confusing.

A company called Aereo is a Tv broadcasting website that gives you an antenna and a DVR without actually giving you them.

This article presents Samsung's three-proof metal brushed memory cards, which are prepared to resolve many problems for memory card users. It includes physical features such as its metal casing that is waterproof, shock proof, and magnet proof. This is very convenient for photographers or people who regularly store their data in devices they use. I personally find this useful for storing and transferring data to other computers because it is small and fast and you don't have to worry about it corrupting.

This article explains how the co founder of twitter believes spending too much time on the site will is "unhealthy." I agree that spending unreasonable amounts of time on the computer is unhealthy in general. I think the purpose of twitter is too update people on issues that interest them or express random ideas or thoughts on their mind. however, it is important that we limit the time we spend on twitter and other social networks in order to keep up with real life social activites.
