Internet: is it Safe ??

The internet has been around for quite a while. The origin of internet research dated back to the 1960s. As of 2009 one quarter of the human population uses the services of the internet.

There have been doubts of the internets safety through out the years. Lots of incidents revolve around the internet. Situations like social sharing sites, Facebook,Twitter,Google plus, Myspace (Jjks) as a site for sex predetors to stalk and harass people who use the site.

Also Con Artists and Scammers have been using the Internet to target people.On one occasion 58 year old divorcee Philip Hunt has been talking to a girl named Rose online on a dating site. She convinced him that she was pretty smart and desperately lonely, and also suffering from malaria. Unfortunately it was an elaborate scam costing him 82 thousand dollars and ultimately his life.

On some occasions the inthernet is a useful tool for everyone. Its and easy way to connect and communicate with friends and meet new people. Other sites like Wikepdia and Google are helpful sites for your homework.(Copy Paste (:). Other sites also give entertainment and enjoyment like Youtube, Blogger etc

Overall the internet is a very useful kind of tool.....if used in the right way, on Facebook make sure your security setting are saved to the right one. and be very careful when entering unkown sights. Have a firewall so it could prevent sites or viruses to enter your computer.

Mac Miller: Blue Slide Park

One of the upcoming rappers from Pittsburgh is Mac Miller. Releasing his new album sometime this month Blue Slide Park. He has debuted 2 of his tracks, Smile Back and Frick Park Market. He has promised he would drop the album when it reaches 100 thousand  pre orders. The two debuted songs have more upbeat bass instrumentals and a more mainstream sound.Fans have been criticizing his new sound, being to upbeat. I personally love Mac Miller's new songs.

Mac Miller has been going up the Itunes charts he is currently top 5 in album pre orders.I recently pre-orded my own copy. He did a live  broadcast last night to countdown to his Album pre order.Overall I'm excited for the release of his new album.

Review: NBA2k12 DEMO

The NBA2k12 demo released on September 24.The actual game launches on October 4 in the USA and October 7 Internationally.The demo looked smoother and more realistic than NBA2k11.The game has better visual presentation and a more creative pre game presentation. The game consists of a 4 minute quarter game. The player plays as the Mavericks, a finals rematch with the Heat. Dirk Nowitzki has a more refined shot and a better post up game.

Most of the controls have changed significantly.The hop step has changed into the automatic post move.The crowd visuals has been more realistic and a more part of the game, the athmosphere felt like a real Finals rematch.One of the problems they didn't fix, was the easy way to score inside the basket. and also the game speed. All in all NBA2k12 looks to be one of the best sports game to ever come out.
