What Computer People Do To Figure Things Out
There is nothing magic about what "computer people" do to figure out how to do something on a PC. I'll let you in on out secret, the process is:

How Free is Free Speech?
So it begins:
The fight between music bloggers and record labels reached its most visible point when a guy who uploaded a leaked copy of the latest Guns N' Roses album to his site got arrested by the FBI. But many music bloggers are now fighting a much more invisible menace, with posts they've written suddenly disappearing from their sites (via Tyler Hellard) hosted on Google's Blogger platform. An RIAA source says that the group sends Google a list of URLs it doesn't like, and Google "then deals with the problem."

How free is free speech? Of course if you violate copyright, regardless of your opinion on the subject, is illegal the fact that private companies decide on what is OK to post ansd what is not begs the question, where is the costitution in all of this? If I have a website and I post something that a group does not agree with and it is hosted within the US, then there should not be a reason to take the content away unless told to do so by a court of law. How can we let a private company dictate what is constitutional and what is not at the whim or request of a trade group with disposable funds?
Google Pimps its Logo for Lego!
As usual Google has gone all out and done its magic with their logo to show the world what real nerds love... LEGOS! In addition to showing just how sweet the people at Google must be, the logo also commemorates the Lego company's 50th anniversary selling the greatest toys on Earth!
Legos are probably the coolest toy ever invented and I have as many as I can get my hands on. Actually, over the past year or so I have started buying them again and building them because I miss that part of when I was a kid. I primarily build Technic sets but I still have all of my other sets in a closet at my parents house in New Hampshire.
Someday when my kids are old enough I will give all of my old Legos to them and then they can discover just what makes them so cool. Building something out of basic rectangular and square bricks inspires kids to be more creative and think about what they are doing way more so than playing a computer game or some other type of activity. Every time you build a Lego set you force your self to use both your left and right brain to work together and that is why Legos are the ultimate toy for people who like to think about what they are doing. If you are or have smart kids or are still a smart kid at heart I would encourage you to bring these toys into your home and see just how much time you will spend playing with them.
