Best Place to Shop on the Internet?

Hey guys, This topic came up to me about a week ago, but I did not think it was too important. But, after reviewing it, I noticed this could help a lot of people, and hopefully you! The question is "where should I shop online?" I am here to give you my opinions on which I think is the best website to shop on. Now, I know this question seems a little stupid. But, have you ever thought about getting scammed? Also, where are the best deals at. I am going to start off with where you could get scammed. The first well-known place to be scammed would be Craigslist. If you have never used Craigslist, it is a website where people can post listings on things you would like to sell. The problem with this is people can post anything from fake items to stolen goods. Although, Craigslist sellers do sell legit things, it is easier to be scammed. The next place you can be scammed is eBay. Except, getting scammed on eBay is a little different. Sometimes, you can get a package containing something you don't want, those problems can be resolved easily. On eBay, the way you can get scammed is by miss paying. Some people will try to make something bad seem good. When people see that something is an amazing price, they bid. The problem is, that starting price was too high for the item. The reason it seemed good is because the seller put false information about the item. After the first bid is placed, others will see the "amazing" price and bid even more. After the bids get very high, somebody will win. That person who wins will get the scam. So, getting to the best. Although, you will easily be able to guess my favorite place to shop online, I am going to make you exited to use it. So, with that said, my favorite online shop is (drum role) Amazon. I find Amazon to be amazing! You can trust every seller to give you exactly or almost exactly what you want. Also, Amazon has special programs like Amazon Prime. Amazon also sells things like digital music, movies, and apps (for Android). I just feel that Amazon really loves their customers and that is why we see things like the Kindle. If you have never used Amazon, I highly suggest that you go and use it for your next online purchase. You will instantly realize that you save tons of money when shopping on Amazon. So, what is your favorite online store?

Vizio (Yahoo Controlled) Smart TV

Hey guys, I have been thinking this over for quite a while. But I know feel I know enough to talk to you guys about it today. Getting to the point, today I would like to talk to you about Vizio's smart TV operating system. So, whether you are looking into getting a smart TV, you already have one, or you are just curious about them, this is the article for you! When I got my smart TV I was a little confused with the OS. But it didn't take long to figure out. The OS is pretty nice. To open up the "home" menu, you need to press the "V" button (on Vizio models. OS varies by company). When you press this button, a little menu pops up from the bottom of the screen. In this "tray" you can find all of your apps. One of the only problems with this tray is if you have lots of apps, it takes a while to find the one you want. Also, there is a little bit of lag, but not too much. Before you enter apps, you need to download them. This is probably the biggest downside of the OS. Because the app store is run by Yahoo, there are only just under 150 apps. And many aren't even useful. But some are good like Pandora, YouTube, Twitter, etc. When your apps are downloaded, you can find them in the tray. Most apps will open in a small widget so you may do basic tasks while still watching TV. But you can easily find a button that opens the full application. Unfortunately, some apps are widget or full screen only. While inside applications, they run very smoothly, Without much lag. Also, well known apps such as YouTube run in perfect HD. The TV has very good WiFi but that varies with your TV and your router. But as long as you are fairly close to your router, you should have smooth feed back. That is all I have to say about the Vizio smart TV interface.

Should You Jailbreak your iDevice?

Hey guys, Today I want to talk about jailbreaking  Now I have jailbroken all of my Apple devices. And to be honest, there are many pros and cons of jailbreaking. So, first, the cons. First of all, when you jailbreak, your warranty is taken off your iDevice. So make sure that you fix your device with your warrenty before you jailbreak. Also, every once in a while your device will crash out of the blue. This can get very bothersome s when the device reboots, it goes straight into safe mode. So then you have to restart the device again just because it crashed. The last con about jailbreaking is re-springing your device. If you thought crashing was bad, you really won't like this. Every single time you want a new theme or most tweaks, you have to restart your device. Although this is bad, at least you are getting something new. And that leads us into the first pro of jailbreaking. That is the fact that your device is completely customization. If you want iOS to look like android, you can do that. The possibilities are endless. Another good thing about jailbreaking is getting free stuff. Although you have to pick and choose on what you really should do and shouldn't, you can get things for free. But no matter if you are broke, or you just want to save, you can get things like apps and in-app purchases on your device. You can also add repo sources to Cydia and get anything on Cydia for free. The last pro about jailbreaking is tweaks. This does fit in with the endless customization, but is a little different. Tweaks allow you to do things like add widgets and change the app page screen transition. You can do many other things to make your iDevice feel more like your own. Your friends and family will most likely ask how you made your device so cool. It is your decision on telling them how or not. Thank you for reading my article on whether or not you should jailbreak you iDevice. Please visit my website www.techhype.co, follow me on Twitter, www.twitter.com/techhypeco , and friend me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hunter.duffy.79
