The web is sometimes called  the “wild, wild west” because it’s open. the music industry has been fighting with the web for a while now , they didn’t like that music was sold cheaper online  and some sites did it free in the late 90′s. Apple’s I-tunes did make the music industry cringe in the beginning ,but they have been working  with them now . Is it that the media industry  is slow to adapt and also wants it cost more to the user . that has caused piracy to go rampant?  To a point going the movies cost more and more now , making the time waiting to buy it  or rent it  worth the time or even some getting it free online when the movie is in theaters. Also the Music industry in hard copy form has suffered because people now want more music and they want to either have it downloaded or streamed.  An industry afraid to change and understand that consumers don’t want high prices  has been in part responsible for it’s own piracy? Or is it people just knowing that getting it for free is always the best and they don’t see a cost to it?    Those two questions is what makes  understanding the problem harder and seeing the web has changed. what people do.

Wikipedia, Reddit, Craigslist , and  others,  shutdown their sites for  a day to protest what they saw wrong in the government. Google ,and others blacked out parts. Wednesday was the day for the web and web users to protest a law they sought unfit. The Protesting government has been big for the past year and it’s a different tide.  People don’t think the web should be changed where speech is edited  because laws are badly written. The government does have anti-piracy laws already to use.  Congress people , the ones for SOPA and PIPA, changed their minds. The big thing is really who had the best message?  The  Supporters of the bills who said that it would cost American Jobs, even Nike said that , oddly because they mostly have their shoes and products made in other countries.?  Or the web industry who says the web will be forever changed and freedom of speech will die? It’s seems the tech won  because their message was more threatening to away of life.

So for now round one is done.

The weekend magazine is back here on mychiller life , it’s  alook at we think is interesting in lifestyle topics. Where we inject guest writers statements on what they think about a topic. You can join in too , if you email us at mychiller @inbox that you would like to guest write something.

 A Bald Barbie  ( Written By Joan F for mychiller life) 

Barbie,the doll , is what a group of people want made a bald version , to help girls who lost their hair to cancer, Alopecia , or Trichotillomania , cope with it, and make it easier to explain to people. A facebook page asking Mattle, the Barbie maker, to make a bald version of the doll.  Hair is important to girls  , that is true and many feel hair is part of their identity (boys can say that too).  For anyone , fighting cancer is a de-moralizing experience, they don’t feel well , they are scared of what happens next , for a child it’s even more scarier , they need  help to cope with everything that comes with it, and help the family understand too, it’s always good when you don’t feel a lone , many families shave their heads with their child during cancer , and many classmates do do. I think is a good idea to make doll for kids going through this , a doll that shows the same thing the child is going through.

There are some detractors,  i am not not with them, but they have a some understandable points: Mattel should use the money from the dolls (if they make it) , to kids with cancer to help research and pay medical bills, they should figure out ways to help boys (some boys also care about their hair.)  I also feel with kids with hair loss should also be helped with confidence boosting that being bald doesn’t mean that your less of person.

CES :And Smart TV's By Ryan B (mychiller business guy)  (each blue line has a story)

Ah, TV you really are changing aren't you?  Your remote , was once so simple until the cable company had me use theirs. But now Tv,your remote now has two sides in same cases, or I can use my phone or tablet to change you, I can change the channel all the way from another state. 3DTV , now with out glasses, a TV with Dual viewing? So now lovers can watch separate shows and still be together . Windows will have two sides , touchy side  , a portable side, ah windows you have grown from freezing up and  from 95.  Mircofsoft you are bringing your Kinect to the PC , now  I can finally wave at my computer and jump around with out being looked at like an idiot. For you clumsy people (like me) ,  you can get  a tablet you can drop in water without crying.  Now my washing machine seems dumb now , they are getting smarter , though it doesn't put the clothes in for you, move them to the drier , and then fold them  that's still human work,

Forget tablets and computers, for a second , how about computer-tablet hybrid thing. Now back to computers ( see what I did there? ) Meet the Ultra book  , what the heck is that ? Well it's  a laptop that's really thin like the Mac-book air but with PC prices  (cheaper).  And there my long strange report is done

Too many twins  by   Issac M for mychiller

A study came out , do the use of invitro fertilization has made the number of twins grow in the recent years, that’s great for the economy I say, you have buy more stuff, yes I take this , even though my headline makes it seem different, that  more twins is great.  Twins are always used on TV , plus if their are more twins , then single births are more amazing , yes think about it.  The twin cities are great, the Minnesota Twins are great   ok , “Twin Peaks” was  a good show , not great but good. If you say this is science gone awry , well were you when they were cloning sheep?

Though , there are still no shows on the channel on TLC , where a family has a single kid , or gives birth to singles (unless they didn’t know they were pregnant, or if it was like 10 and more to come) , but if you have 8 at one time , you need show, even the twins don’t get show since “Zack and Cody” and that was not real(real -twins though). So even TV now knows twins are just the same as rest of us.

It’s been all about mobile, Laptops, netbooks, tablets and cell phones  have been selling very well  and many keep saying that the desktop computer is going to die. I say different , why? A tablet is a great but you can’t fully type  a paper, or a blog post on it (not without accessory), you can’t do that on your phone either.  You still have to fire up your trusty laptop or desktop. Some families will be buying new desktops and some still use them , when you share a computer it’s easier to share  use of it then use of a laptop or a tablet, and not say that some parents don’t want their kids to have their own computers. Businesses will still continue to use desktops as their primary type of computer. Desktops , (and some laptops ) are still cheaper than tablets.

The Desktop market hasn’t been diving sharply it’s just a slight drop . and that doesn’t mean all are going to tablets. Laptops are getting more affordable and more people are getting them. Desktop computers have also gotten better than years ago, many companies are making slim models and some are doing single body units , like Apple.  So people thinking of space have less worry.

Your tablet can’t carry over  500 GB (for now) , yes desktops and some laptops are getting high amounts of disk drives.  People do store their lives in the computers and  you have a lot more room to do so.    Most people who have tablets , still use their desktop or laptop , that means that the tablet and smartphone are accessories not the take over.

Though , the  desktop doesn’t  get the “oohs and ahhh’s ” as much that doesn’t mean they will die in 2012 … atleast. That also doesn’t mean  tablets and mobile phones will be taking over any type of regular hardware computer.
