Google to buy Napster?

Google-Napster

So many news about Google lately…pardon me.

Give your gun, get a PC

ImageAs an effort to reduce the massive weapons armament in Mexico authorities are offering firearm owners an interesting trade-in deal: give us your gun and we’ll give you a PC, brand new one.
