Funniest YouTube Comments

The amount of time every person in the world spends on YouTube every day must be staggering. The revolutionary website has managed to slip into the mainstream consciousness and just isn't going away. A great way to share videos of any kind, any that hit viral - or even just popular - status are very entertaining for whatever reason, good or bad.

Sometimes it isn't just the video that is great, but also the comments. A witty remark from a YouTube user can actually be better than the video it has been placed on. More than one clip has gone viral more because of people's reaction to the content than the content itself. These ten examples are proof of that.

Crush The Castle Review

Do you remember the Angry Birds game review I did not long ago? In that review I mentioned a game just like it that was the possible inspiration behind angry birds. That game that was mentioned was called “Crush the Castle”. I had a lot of things happen to me this week, so I thought it would be a good idea to sit at my desk and play this game again. So today we are going to be talking about one of my favorite classic flash games. Again, this game might be the inspiration behind Angry Birds, so it plays much like it. So all you have to do is kill all the guards while destroying everything in the process. A fun and addictive Physics game in other words. So let’s dive right in and get started shall we?

Double Review: Update Detector & Wise Data Recovery

While I was working on the review for Google Drive a friend of mine came up to me and told me about a site known as Filepuma. Interested I decided to go onto the site and see what they had to offer. Because I am one of those people who does enjoy free applications. After browsing the website for a little bit I came across two particular applications that caught my attention right off of the bat. Those two applications were Wise Data Recovery and Update Detector. At first glance they didn’t look like much, but I never trust the looks of an application.  So after installing both of the applications onto my computer I decided to run the first one that caught my attention first which was the Update detector.

How To Block Adverts on Facebook & Youtube

Blocking adverts on Facebook & Youtube is just as easy as blocking other ads on the internet. Simply Install and activate Adblock Plus.

The kinds of adverts you see on Youtube and Facebook are very different. On Youtube you get some banners, overlay adverts and video adverts. The video adverts are short videos played before content, I often find they are actually the same adverts I see on TV! The overlay adverts pop-up a little way into the video, can either be text or banner and obscure the video. That's exactly the kind of advert, one that obscures the content, that is explicitly forbidden in the Adblock Plus acceptable ads policy. Luckily all 3 of the ad types on Youtube get blocked by default with APB.

Facebook Adverts are something altogether different, they have 7 standard formats and many more supplemental formats. Blocking all of those is a bit more complicated, luckily Adblock and their awesome community have you covered.

CCleaner Review (Video Included) 


I was having problems with my computer recently and I needed an application that could scan and fix some of the problems I was having. I tried all the virus scans, malware scans, and even spyware/adware scans, and I came to the conclusion that it wasn’t a problem as far as viruses were concern. So I did some research and found out it could have been a lot of stored files that were not being used. So when I was searching for something to fix this problem I remember an application my class was using a while back called CCleaner. What the software does is scans and cleans out your cookies and cache files from your internet history to protect your privacy from unwanted files. Speaking of unwanted files this program also scans for unused file extensions and fixes them.  Another positive side to this application is that it searches and cleans out your registry on your computer. This is a major plus because some of today’s viruses and worms actually hide in your registry and could affect your entire computers performance and even get into your mail accounts sending off random e-mail. Now the question you may be having is “Does it really work?” I can understand the question because it does seem too good to be true, but I can answer that question with a most definite yes....
