Toshiba hardrive 500gb portable hard drive

One of the reason I wanted a hard drive was for extra space to store files from my laptop because I am running out of space because of my big music collection. I was looking for something with a decent amount of space and affordable price and came across the Toshiba portable 500gb hard drive. I have heard and read some good reviews about this, so I thought why not choose this, plus my laptop is Toshiba brand. Pros: Price: The price was great, it was within my budget, which was even better. Functionality: Once it was hooked up to my laptop, it read within seconds, which was greats. I tested it out and transferred some files to(pdfs, and some music files) and copied in a few seconds. Then I tried some of my bigger files like my downloaded movies. Because these are bigger sized files, it took some time but not too long only like a couple of minutes. Build: It is very light weight, so be very careful while carrying it. I would suggest a investing in a case to protect it. It h

Vivitar Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with Speakerphone (Red)

I was out at Walmart just browsing and , I happened to come upon this Vivitar wireless Bluetooth speaker and all for the very cheap price of 8 bucks. I was thinking to myself it is probably just cheap no sounding piece of crap speaker that no one is buying and put it on clearance to get rid of it. The kind clearances I like. So, being a technology enthusiast and because it was just 8 bucks I decided to try it out. I didn’t have much to lose. Pros: Price: The price of this speaker was very cheap, and I like cheap sometimes. Build: I love the color of the speaker, I do love that they have a variety  colors , but I wanted something other than the general colors black or white.  It is very light weight, almost close to feather in your hand. It does have these 4 rubber pads at the bottom to prevent it from moving. Sound: The sound is decent for some basic music listening not to good and not to bad either. Bluetooth: I love that it is really easy to connect it to Blue

Reddit is my addiction

When I first took a look at reddit a few years ago, it did not make any sense t me. All I seen was a link displayed as a heading. Just last summer I decided to give it another try and figure out what I am looking at. There were all these other links that look like this "/r/subreddit. I did not know what  a subreddit was at the time, but figued it out. The first subreddit I visited was a freebies subreddit, because I have always been trying to look for these freebies that everyone has been talking about. I have been hooked ever since then.. Now, I use reddit for practically anything. Reddit has hundreds and hundreds of subreddits from education, to entertainment, news, and more. I would really suggest you guys check it out. Reddit

How to copy text in between PC and mobile devices

Alt-C allows you to copy and paste text in between PC and device. You either copy from PC and paste to mobile device or copy from mobile device and paste to PC. Right now Alt-C is only available for Windows 7 and higher and Android devices.  Alt-C in Google Play Store Below I captured a few screenshots of Alt-C in action. When first downloaded and installed on mobile devices and PC there will be a code in the mobile app Alt- C that you will need to type in the settings of the PC app under the devices tab.

But this can be changed in settings through the PC app.)     Then it should display the message "Text c
