About Lunar Eclipses

This beautiful event where the Moon turns red occurs when the full moon, Earth and the sun get aligned. This makes that the moon crosses through Earth's shadow. The event only happens a few times a year.

Where to share videos, images and text? And maybe earn money…

Squidoo.com, Hubpages.com, Multiply.com, and so on, are examples of pages where you can add content. For example, if you want to add videos and to get followers (audience) you should use Youtube. As you probably know Youtube is a great community of video sharing. You can add your clips for free in multiple formats. Each video must be of no more than 15 minutes. You can split long videos into parts and you can add links from the first part to the second, to the second to the third one… Regarding the first three pages that I mentioned, Squidoo and Hubpages are so similar: there you can add writing content and earn money thanks to the ads that those sites include. If you want to personalize your own blog and to add ads to it you can try Blogger.com with ads from Google Adsense. Multiply is like a mix between Blogger, Youtube and Twitter. On that page you can add short updates, blog entries, videos and images. I can even say that Internet encourages us more to add content than to receive content. Just take a look to Facebook: it is fun because you can share your life and it is very probable that other people will see your updates. If people don’t think that their messages will be get by the others, none of them would share anything.

Angry Birds: get the game!

Angry Birds is a very simple game. It consists on throwing away some chubby birds direct to walls of wood, glass and cement. These ones protect the enemies of the birds: the green pigs.

This popular app is great due to three things: it is so addicting, the graphics are simple but the physics are perfect and realistic, and it contains tons of stages divided on its different versions (Angry Birds, Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds Rio)

You can use a variety of 6 birds with different abilities: the red bird is strong and can destroy wood walls easily, the yellow one is fast and you can click or tap the screen to make him go faster, the blue one is the smallest one but it can divide itself on three little versions of him, the white one can throw an explosive egg, the black one is like a bomb so it can explode and provoke a big damage, and the green one is like a boomerang.

You can get the game from AngryBirds.com on the section Angry Birds Game and also in the different app stores available for mobile phones.
