Online Quizzes To Kill Some Time
If you have some time to spare, here are online quizzes that I came across this week. The first one is about how much money you could take in a bank robbery. Weird huh? Apparently I could take as much as $3 million…
Now robbing a bank is risky right? Why not find the chances of you ending up in prison then? You can do that on the Are You Going to Prison? quiz. (I have 7% of chances of ending behind the bars).
Understanding Arithmetic is Key

Vista Owners Mass Downgrading to Windows XP
I am really not sure how Microsoft is still trying to argue with people, defending that Vista is a very good operating system, and that it is only problem is a bad reputation.

There are good chances you already came across the term “cloud computing” once or twice, even if you don’t completely grasp the meaning of the term.

Best Online Flash Games: Winterbells
My friends introduced me to this game called Winterbells, and I want to share it with you as well. The game’s rules are simple. You will assume control of a cute little rabbit and jump from bell to bell (and the occasional bird to double your score). But be warned, this game is very addicting, as you aim for a literally skyrocketting score.
