Many diseases are spread by poor coughing and sneezing techniques. Most people put their hands in front of their mouths and noses to stop germs from getting into the air. Unfortunately, this technique puts the germs on their hands. The germs are then spread to telephones and doorknobs and many other surfaces from which they are then picked up by the next user. This is how colds spread quickly through schools and workplaces, and how the flu spreads quickly through entire cities. It would be ve...

If the SOPA bill passes, people won't even be able to do things like cover a song on YouTube. Don't let this bill pass. If your ISP is blocking the petition (most are) then, please, tunnel your traffic through another country and continue to sign up. This affects all users of the internet in a negative way. This bill will pass unless it is stopped by the people.

Google Reader is ostensibly just an RSS aggregator, a tool that lets you catch up on your favorite blogs.
