If you are not sure what a blog is or how it works, the video called Blogs in Plain English will help.  This video explains why blogs are such a "big deal".  Just click on the large arrow in the middle of the video window below to view the video.

Whole-House Surge Protection

It's important to protect all your electronic devices, not just computers, from surges.  Printers, televisions, appliances and computer peripherals all require protection.  However, it can be inconvenient to use individual surge protectors on all devices that need protection.  One solution is to install a whole=house surge protector as shown in this photo.  The device is installed by an electrician and is attached to your circuit breaker panel.  Whole-house surge protectors function like other surge protection devices, but they protect all electrical devices in the house at once.  The typical cost of $200 to $300 (installed) is generally less than buying individual surge protectors for every electrical device in your home.

Google+

Although most of your friends aren't on it yet, Google+, I definitely recommend that you check it out.  The layout is very simple, but pleasing to the eyes.  The concept of circles is also a welcomed addition.  I can direct comments to specific users or to everyone ... it's all my choice!  Unfortunately, due to the lack of users, I have not yet had the opportunity to test out hangouts.  Hangouts is an area within Google+ where you can have multi-person video chat.
