When you're out and about in the dangerous world of Wi-Fi, it's hard for the average computer user to stay protected, or even know what being protected entails. Little do most people know, Windows 7 has a built-in security that few people take advantage of: a VPN (Virtual Private Network) server and client.
Delicious raw brownies made from almonds, cashews, dates, cacao and a pinch of sea salt.

While the new Facebook redesign doesn't include many usability changes, the visual tweaks are a definite improvement to the old design. Perhaps the best feature is the ability to scroll photo collections infinitely, as well as the new visual prominence given to your personal stats and photos (job, dating status, location, etc.).
I found this Twitter account from http://www.stopdirtyenergyprop.com/ As in their name, they're posting constant updates on Prop 23.
Imagine you wanted to make LEGO art, and you chose to make a spooky, abandoned house, like something out of economically depressed Detroit.
Are these guys running for politics? I'm buying whatever they are selling. Really great trailer with an overview of what Guild Wars 2 will bring new to the MMO scene. Narrated by the developers of the game, they offer some good points on what you can expect from the game when it launches early next year (date has yet to be determined, but it does not look like it will make it into the holiday period).
It's official, people! Soon you'll be able to play FarmVille on your iPhone as an app. There's no release date yet, though they think it'll probably be around June 19. I wonder - could you connect your Facebook FarmVille to your iPhone FarmVille? Or would those be two totally separate things?
For an ivy league freshman in 1973, it was simply a rite of passage to take a date to a foreign film. I would pretend (oscar worthy effort by yours truly) to adore each film...for the simple purpose of maybe getting lucky with an ivy league female. By accident, I actually enjoyed this insane film. Border-line pornography, it made excess an art form.
I'm not quite sure why, but this is by far my favorite LEGO creation to date. Via Mrs. Monster.
This might be dating me, but I remember how much I loved this set when it came out.

We all want a faster, more efficient web browsing experience. Some immediately flocked to Google Chrome as soon as it was released, because of its super fast speeds. Others restrained themselves and continued to wait for Microsoft and Mozilla to play catchup. And the time is almost here for all Internet junkies to improve their game.
Destroy Black Ops Noobs First of all, these tips are great for any consoles that run Black Ops. Whether it be your Sony PS3, Nintendo Wii, XBox 360 or your PC.
Google is God of the internet. The clouds in the sky, the light at the end of the tunnel, the all knowing mysterious field of pure white. And soon they will have an optional home page that aesthetically expresses their God-like super spartan minimalism.
Advances in technology continue to make our lives easier and more convenient. If you want to send fax, for instance, you no longer need to own a fax machine. You can easily and quickly send fax directly from your computer in one of several methods, including via an Internet fax service provider or using Windows built-in Fax and Scan tools. Read on how to use an Internet fax service, one of the faster faxing methods, to send fax messages from your PC.
Very cool 1920's papercraft toys from the LA Times "Junior Times" section. Just print, cut out and assemble (if you don't mind turning a blind eye to the dated racial association, e.g. Lee Ling...the Chinese Laundry Man).

This article will teach you how to make an error similar to this one (also by me). This error message though, is a yes or no question. Clicking yes and no will give different results. Like the previous error message, this is 100% harmless.
A Self-Protection Guide 1) You can help protect yourself from violent crimes.
Today's digital cameras record not only the images themselves, but also the metadata behind the scenes, like camera settings, location, date, time, etc. But there's a lot more to say about a photograph. What's the subject? Is it night or day? Outside or inside? Person, place or thing?
Though under a lot of the average consumer's radar, the CISPA is now making rounds again with a coalition of advocacy rights groups. The act, known as the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, forces companies to ignore existing privacy laws and share information with the Federal Government. This short article will bring you up to date on this bill. The CISPA is another bill 'designed' to help prevent thefts and prevent them in cyberspace. But again, like all the previous bill before...
A shocking video has appeared on the Internet showing Libyan rebels torturing a group of black Africans. People with their hands bound are shown being locked in a zoo-like cage and allegedly forced to eat the old Libyan flag.
The department of Homeland Security released a list of 'words and phrases' it uses to search social media for terrorism, and whatever else they decide they are looking for that day. Read some of these. A few are obvious "bomb, nuke" and some "target, event" are just down right vague. More reasons to watch what you do on the Internet. You are not the only one watching!
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO DISCONNECT YOUR INTERNET CONNECTION BEFORE ENTERING THE SERIAL TO THE SOFTWARE.
How many Facebook friends do you have? The average person on Facebook has around 140 friends while some hit the ridiculous Facebook friend limit of 5,000. Facebook states that its services are for people you know in person. I don't think anyone has 5,000 friends in person, do you? Personally, I don't even think Megan Fox has 5,000 friends in person, so how could any regular person have that many? But that's beside the point.
Just when I thought I'd scoured the internet for every cool existing PVC project, this thing came up.
Thomas orders purple contacts off of the internet and insists the he is now to be referred to as "TimeCat," whatever that means.
Social networks like Facebook and Google+ are great for staying connected with family, friends and coworkers—even fans. But sharing and communicating with practically anyone in the digital realm has alienated us from most of the flesh-and-blood beings we see everyday—our neighbors. How well do you know your neighbors?
Internet famous pumpkin carver Ray Villafane recently nabbed the world record for carving the world's largest pumpkin. Inhabitat attended the carving event, held at the New York Botanical Garden, and captured some great photos. The pumpkin weighs in at 1818.5 pounds!
I have been having a lot of computer issues, so that's why this week's Google+ weekly round up is late. However, I think I may have figured out the problem. It might be time for us to switch Internet providers.
The video below demonstrates how you can convert you 2D Photos into 3D Models using 3Defy. You will need to follow these steps:
Microsoft recently released the first sneak peak of their new operating system, Windows 8, and it's a pretty big departure from the last few major updates. The new Windows 8 was built from the ground up, and is designed primarily as a touchscreen interface, which is perfect for the expanding tablet market. They've ditched the clunky start screen that's dominated Windows 95 through Windows 7, replacing it with grids of application tiles, similar in functionality to an iPad or Android tablet, a...
Tired of seeing all of those ads in your browser? The flashing ones make for a terrible browsing experience, and those rollover ones are just downright annoying. If you don't want to be bothered by them again, you've got a few choices, depending on what web browser you're using.
