Using Chrome OS

My boyfriend won a free CR-48, which is Google's new notebook that uses the Chrome Operating System.  I'm still getting used to this keyboard (apparently it is like a Mac's keyboard, and my experience with Mac's is limited).  The most annoying thing is the mouse.  It's just one big button!  I usually have my left hand on the click button and my right hand on the mouse pad, but when its all one big button and I have two fingers on it things get crazy.

Anyways. I'm liking the idea of cloud computing and being able to have my settings no matter what computer I'm using.  I know that cloud computing is not specific to the Google OS but this is my first time learning anything about it.

Anyways, Bones is on now, so gotta go!  More later.

Ender Series review

For the past three weeks, I've incredibly negligent of my online hobbies (mainly Facebook and webcomics). What have I been up to?

I've been deeply engaged in Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game series. More specifically, the Bean books, I think they are called the Shadow saga or something like that.

I finally finished Ender in Exile on Saturday, so I can now say that I've read all the books in the Ender series - of course, Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, and Children of the Mind in high school, so my memory is quite faint on those, and I don't have any desire or intention to reread them. In fact I'm quite upset with how the Bean books turned out, so I don't think I'll have any patience for Novinha, who I recall being incredibly annoying. (Speaking of annoying, oh how I'd love to see a match up between Novinha and Virlomi for most annoying character... but I'm getting ahead of myself here).

SPOILER ALERT!!! Warning, the rest of this post will be a SPOILER.
