How to tell if it's the real celebrity on Twitter


Posted Wednesday January 4 2012, 7:11 pm

Hey there(: i was just wondering how you tell if it is the real celebrity on Twitter or not? Like I know they have the little blue check mark, but there are two celebrities on my Twitter that don't have a check mark, but I htink they're the real ones one if you wan tto see for yourself is C. Thomas Howell, his picture is him with glasses like behind a bright light, and S.E. Hinton and it is a picture of her with her horse. They both seem like the real ones but i'm not for sure like for the C. Thomas Howell only becuase he like answers back to everyone who asks him questions but heck I don't know, but do you think they can be the real celebrities even if they don't have they blue check mark? Thanks(: :P

My desktop on my laptop goes black...?


Posted Monday December 26 2011, 11:58 pm

So my laptop will hibernate, I turn it back on, I see the mouse and then I click it around and nothing happens. So then I move the mouse like over the icons, and then they start to appear. So I click on the Internet, and then minimize It and everything is back to normal. My computer isn't slow or anything.

My virus protection says I have no viruses as well. Not even web threats..

What is this? It's not really a problem. Just a nuisance, and I'm afraid it will lead to worse problems. I just bought this laptop a few months ago.

I just recently put some new games on it, but it hasn't overheated & it's not slow at all..?

What should I do :(

Posted Saturday December 24 2011, 11:30 am

I was just wondering if anyone thinks my laptop will be able to handle the Sims 3 [plus expansion packs] without my laptop slowing down and such. My laptop specs are better then my home computer. It just makes me weary because i need my laptop for classes & I'm afraid it will break it.

I've only had my laptop for about 5 months now.

Sims 3, glitch freezing up my pc?


Posted Saturday November 26 2011, 1:43 am

I am using my sister's Sims 3 game and I also have the Nightlife, World Adventures, High-End Loft, and Ambitions Expansions packages that I also downloaded along with. The game seemed to be working just fine at first, but maybe about an hour or two into the game, the screen turns black, then it reverts back to the game, but my cursor doesn't hover over what I want it to and when I try to save the game or quit, it won't work.
Also, it doesn't always mess up my cursor. It also starts blinking and my computer makes a sound like it's working, then it slows down, then speeds back up, but the entire time, the screen is blank. No amount of pressing esc, or any other key code words. It's driving me nuts and I can't play my game, nor save it!...

computer virus


Posted Sunday November 20 2011, 11:29 pm

My pc has been acting strange lately, sometimes it takes about five miniutes to turn on once I enter my accout password, then when I turn it on I am used to getting a screen pop up that says "unable to establish a wireless connection" but it has popped up 59 times before. Its slow, and just doesn't act right.The memory on the hard drive is alot more full than it was a month ago. I use norton and avast and norton tells me I have 72 threats found and my perfomance is poor. Do I have a virus and how do I fix it. If I don't have a virus how do I remove those 'threats' and get my laptop back to normal? thank you for your time.

Does this seem like a good purchase choice?

I recently bought a Pandigital Novel. (http://www.pandigital.net/userfiles/imag…

I read the reviews for it and most of the reviewers either sort of liked it or hated it. Usually I would take heed to this and the many complaints but I guess you can I say I REALLY wanted an ereader/tablet. At the time I didn't have a whole lot of money other then some cash ($40) I earned from a data entry site and $50 I got from other assorted tasks. I was so thrilled when I finally bought it and excited beyond belief when I actually received it in the mail 3 days later.

The first thing I noticed was a very resistive and somewhat blurry screen that was next to impossible to navigate around with. The second thing was that it pow...

ipad 2


Posted Monday November 14 2011, 4:48 pm

Ok so i'm a college student and I currently have a white MacBook (not macbook pro) and an iPad 1. I use the macbook the most to type up papers and such, and my iPad very little, mainly to watch tv shows on hulu and games. So what I'm thinking is maybe just selling my iPad 1 and my macbook, and using that money to buy an iPad 2..

what do you think? Would I be able to type up papers on the iPad 2? how would I be able to print them out? should I keep my macbook and instead sell my iPad 1 and use that money, plus some more money to buy an iPad 2?

any other opinions?

Uploaded a picture to upload3r.com but having second thoughts that I made a mistake.


Posted Sunday November 13 2011, 1:25 am

I uploaded a picture of myself to upload3r.com (not to be confused uploader.net) because I wanted to get links so I could link it in my tumblr. Before I uploaded it, there were two options which were 'photo is adult' and 'place in gallery'. Thinking that I did not want my photo to be in the gallery, I clicked photo is adult (though it wasn't. it was just a picture of my face.). Now I'm worried that this picture of my face is in an album with a bunch of adult photos.
Since I selected 'photo is adult', does that mean that my picture will not be placed in the gallery?
