Steven Spielberg is mainly known for movies, however, last year he got involved in creating games. As an example of this is Steven Spielberg�s Boom Blox, which is a puzzle game released for Nintendo Wii. It is being launched by Electronic Arts which seem to be quite happy to cooperate with Spielberg. The game features 400 levels of strategic destruction, but the editor lets players create new levels or take existing levels and elements from the game and incorporate them into all-new level. It will be quite interesting to observe what other games from movie producers are going to get created in the future.
Anyway, games are becoming more and more addictive, and let me explain it first a little bit. A funny and real story that I read some time ago involves a 30 year old man wanted as a murderer who went to Wal-Mart where he started playing Guitar Hero in a gaming section of the supermarket. He became so much engaged in the action that he did not notice police officers who came to the shop looking for him. Probably, if he did not play the game, he could avoid being arrested. However, he was so engaged in the game that he forgot about all the world around him, and did not notice what was going on around him. I wonder if games created by Steven Spielberg will be as much fun.
I wish to discuss Macs and PCs. Macintosh is a computer that is quite popular in the United States, but in Europe it is almost completely unknown. On the other hand, Regular PCs are used across the whole world. I am not going to get engaged in a debate which system is better, but I just want to help you make a decision for anyone who considers buying a new computer.
First of all, I already stated that PCs are a lot more popular. This means that if you live anywhere outside the US, you should probably buy a PC, instead of a Mac. Many argue that it does not matter if Mac is better or not, as it is a computer that is not used almost anywhere in the world. Even if Macs were a bit cheaper than PCs, most computer users would still not want to use them, as they have no way to compete with PCs for the reasons I stated above. Even if you live in US, I also suggest that you use a PC, because you never know if you might need to travel or move to another country. It is better to use a computer that is well known around the world, instead of using a Mac for which you will not be able to buy components or find a service center in the rest of the world. After all, maintenance of a computer is very important and very often you might need to replace fans, cables, or a heatsink.

Some people might say that buying computers is an investment; however, it depends in what situation you are. If you are using a computer for work, then indeed it is an investment. It is an investment because by having a fast computer you are going to perform your job a lot more effectively. It would be hard to be efficient at work if you had a really old PC that would crash often.
On the other hand, buying a computer that has all of the newest components is not an investment at all. That is because computer components are getting less expensive each year, and there are almost no other products the price of which drops so much. That is why I suggest you buy a computer with a processor, graphic card, and other components that you are really going to fully utilize, instead of being convinced by commercials into buying something very expensive that will get outdated soon anyway. Of course, there are some computer users that are going to consider buying the latest computer components. Those might be professionals that work with 3D graphics or perhaps even gamers. Newest games require really fast processing power, so that is why gamers are often those PC users that have the newest and fastest computers.
Whenever someone sends you an attachment via email you should be careful to make sure you will not get infected by a virus. It is easy to click and open a file with a virus, and if you do not have proper antivirus protection, then your computer will be infected. You may lose sensitive data because of that. You might even be forced to format your hard drive. One way to protect yourself from potential viruses is to know which file types are safe to open and which are not. Here is a short list:
� .doc, .xls, .pub, .ppt are files which can be opened by Microsoft Office. It is unlikely for any of them to contain a virus.
� .htm, .html, .php .jpg, .png, .gif are files that are very popular on the Internet as they are responsible for pages and for displaying images. They will probably not contain viruses as well.
� .mov, .avi or .mpg are video files that are relatively safe when it comes to virus infections; however, some people reported that they can contain spyware. Having a good firewall program should protect you.
� .exe is an executive file type, which means that it can be a software program, but it also may be a virus. This is the file type that is the most likely to contain a virus.
The key principle is to be careful, and do not open any files from people that you do not trust. Remember that .exe is the most dangerous file type. Take proper precautions, and do not let viruses harm your computer.

Did you know that you can post blog entries by email? If you have a mobile phone that enables you to send email messages to your account, then you can also use it to post your messages on your blog remotely. Even if this is just a standard cellular phone, it will still work, but you will be somehow limited. Whenever you are on holidays and think that there is something that you would like to add to your post or write a new one, you can easily do so. You will be limited on how long your post will be as usually in one SMS you will be able to send maximum 2-3, maybe 4 sentences. You can always send a few messages that will make a longer post as a whole, but you will need to edit them into one larger post.
Another way you can utilize your email is to take advantage out of the very useful option to receive RSS by email. Feedburner allows it, and since most people use emails, it is very convenient because your readers will not need to download any other programs including RSS readers. I also want to give you a hint how to properly count your RSS by email subscriber amount. I am talking about a situation where a person subscribes to your feed, but after some time does not check your messages anymore. The question is how can you estimate how many subscribers are really active and reading your posts. The answer is surprisingly short, as Feedburner has an integrated tracking image in all emails, which means that if the subscriber does not open the email by a set amount of time, the subscriber will be removed from the RSS count. As you see, emails can help you in managing your blog.
