Comic and super hero fans rejoice!  According to the Hollywood Reporter Fox is in the very early stages of trying to bring a live action series version of the X-Men to television.  The producers of 24, Evan Katz and Manny Coto are apart of this.  We all know how good a series 24 was, so it's a pretty safe bet that if this series comes to fruition it could be handled correctly and be AMAZING!

As a kid I watched the animated series and even collected the trading cards (like kept them in plastic and all of that) so this is pretty exciting news.  The X-Men stories go so many different directions and a series may be a great way to tell the stories without having to condense them into a 2  hour movie and angering the comic book world.

Yesterday Microsoft held an event to give consumers a better look at the new upcoming operating system, Windows 10.  They kicked off by announcing that Windows 10 will be a free upgrade for existing Windows 7 and Windows 8 users for the first year (nice right?).  It looks as though they are going the way of Apple with offering current users/consumers free upgrades to keep the loyalty, and to be honest it's not a bad idea.  Now let's look at some of the details on this operating system

In this day and age many of us are on some type of social media platform, be it Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, or Facebook. At any given time you can log into any of these social media platforms and you're getting updates from people, with most activity being during the work day.  According to studies, nearly 1/3 of employees use Facebook while they are at work.  So it's not surprising that Mark Zuckerberg has launched, Facebook for Work?  But is it a good thing or a bad thing?

So I may be telling my age, but who remembers going to computer class and that one day in the week the teacher would say you could play games?  I definitely do.  Well now you can play over 2,000 MS-DOS games of your childhood in your web browser! Games like Oregon Trail, Sim City, and Stunts to name a few.  Thanks to the Internet Archive these games are available to you, however according to the site, it is still in beta but there is a pretty extensive FAQ if you run into any problems and you can even send suggestions if there is a game that you remember that isn't there.  Am I the only one who remembers " On your own in Suburbia"?  Anyway, it's a great way to waste some time while on the web and these games are free, so check them out here: Archive MSDOS Games

Tip: It tends to run better in Chrome web browsers
