Trusted Friends

The days of forgetting your password may be over. Facebook is testing a new tool called Trusted Friends, which allows you to set 3 to 5 of your Facebook friends (no more and no less) to recieve a special if you get locked out of your Facebook account. The tool is currently being tested on some of the 800 million Facebook users.
If the feature is enabled and you forget your password, simply click "forgot my password" and messages will be sent to your selected friends containg the code. Then you must retrieve the code from your friend(s) to unlock your account.

I think that this idea is really good. Some might be wary of this method, though. Since you get to chose which friends you trust, it might be something I try.

If you'd like to try Trusted Friends, go to your security settings under your Account. Then, simply chose the friends you trust.

So long, PC

Our generation has seen the evolution of computers. We began with the bulky personal computer, then sleek laptops were introduced, and now we continue to see newly developed and upgraded tablets and smart phones, which can be just as useful as a computer. Not surprisingly, personal computers sales are slumping. But if you think that the personal computer will soon be non-existent, you have another thing coming.

Personal computer sales in the United States, Canada, and Europe are indeed slumping, but surprisingly, China has become the world's number one PC market, along with India and Turkey.

I personally haven't used a PC in years, and with the constant innovation and improvement of laptops and tablets such as the iPad, it makes me wonder why countries like China, who is advanced in technology, would be using a PC more and more.

I think laptops have so much more to offer versus a personal computer. Laptops are convenient and portable and are constantly being improved with things like webcams and lighted keyboards. What do you guys think? Would you go back to using a personal computer?

Rest in Peace, Mr. Jobs

Apple founder Steve Jobs, the mastermind behind the Apple products, has died. Jobs also was the co-founder of Pixar. The cause of death is thought to be pancreatic cancer.

Steve Jobs accomplished much in his 56 years of life. It goes without saying that we would not be where we are today in technology if it wasn't for Jobs. Apple began in 1976 when Jobs and Steve Wozniak created the first personal computer.

Remarkably, Jobs continued to innovate new products even through his battle with severe health problems. He was the leader in creating the iPod and revolutionized the way phones are today.

Rest in peace, Steve Jobs. He was truly an inspiration to all of us because of his leadership and innovative mind.
