John Edward on social media, South Park, and paranormal studies
John Edward was 15 when he had his first reading. A psychic came to his grandmother’s and in trying to debunk her she revealed to him that he too had psychic abilities. After divulging I was a skeptic, Edwards shared an anecdote about his first reading.

Selling on the Internet requires some time, some…

As I walked inside from Broadway that dreary, overcast early evening, I was unaware I was about to see some amazing sights without ever having to leave my seat. I was entering “Be More Colorful,” a Fargo virtual reality firm that had just turned one year old on August 1st.

I was recently asked for advice on how to appropriately write a trans character for a piece of fiction.
This is a great question, because the vast majority of people get it incredibly wrong. I tend not to read or watch media that features trans characters, because their storylines are often stereotypical and cringe-worthy.

Google has a cloud plan that is actually free! It should be: Google has enough money, they don’t need mine or yours.
Last week we discussed the Dropbox cloud offering. Remember that cloud storage is a great way to back up your files, unless you are my brother who doesn’t believe in the Cloud.
Cloud goes hand in hand with external drives and network-area-storage (NAS) devices to give you good protection for your files.
