Windows 8

Should you wait for Win8 before buying a new laptop or PC? Not necessary, according to Kim Komando, since any new box will be upgradable to Win8 without any drama. The only drama is that the download will take two days and use half your monthly download allowance. Kidding. Don't delay on account of that.

Group chats

Dave Taylor explains in this article how to set up a group chat window in Facebook. He also makes the point that group video chats work best in Google Plus. G+ has also added a broadcast facility now, so you can video-cast your birthday party or plea for clemency far and wide. And simultaneously save it to YouTube. For posterity. For the win.
