Angry Birds Haunted Hogs

Another Angry Birds season has come out! For this Halloween the game will be called Angry Birds Haunted Hogs. This update will be free for those who ever already bought the Angry Birds game. Haunted Hogs will include 30 different levels and a spooky twist in each one. I think everyone should tryout this new game. 

Wiki

1) You can use Wiki to organize data, Projects, reports, ect.

Apple 36 Years Ago!

A little over 36 years ago, Apple launched the Apple I, often remembered for the classic picture of it housed in a humble wooden computer case with a carved "Apple Computer" logo.

Apple's designs slowly evolved from bulky plastic towers to rounded and colorful products, then solidified themselves in a place where ultrathin components and catchy colors co-exist. My picture below shows what Apple looked like 36 years ago.

Texting Emotions

Emoticons are graphic symbols that use punctuation marks and letters to represent facial expressions to explain a person's mood, help provide context to a person's textual communication and clarify a message that could otherwise possibly be misconstrued. The study, "of Emoticon Use in Text Messaging from Smartphones," used smartphone data from men and women over six months and aggregated 124,000 text messages. The participants were given free iPhones to use for the test period but didn't know what researchers were investigating. It was seen that women use more of these emotions than men do. 

Smaller IPads!

A smaller iPad is coming. For the first time since the iconic tablet's launch in 2010, Apple is giving the product line an expansion. We aren't sure if this will be called the IPad mini or IPad air. I think a lot of people will be out there buying this new product because it's smaller which makes it easier to take with you. We even know the date that Apple will send out its invitations: October 10.
