What's the biggest hard drive you know of? A 500 Gigabyte? A 1 Terabyte? The biggest out there is called a Yottabyte and a hard drive at that size would be estimated to be 1 trillion US dollars. So how much data is a Yottabyte? Well. . .
________________________________Bytes=1
__________________________Kilobyte=1,000
_____________________Megabyte=1,000,000
__________________Gigabyte=1,000,000,000
_______________Terabyte=1,000,000,000,000
___________Petabyte=1,000,000,000,000,000
________Exabyte=1,000,000,000,000,000,000
____Zettabyte=1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
Yottabyte=1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
So whats this mean? That in 50 years that we will all be carrying Zettabytes in our pockets on flash drives while all our computers hold 20 Yottabytes each, HA! So for now not even billionairs will have the Yotta of memory, at least not for a while until the price drops under 1 million for one. So now I hope you feel insignificat with you 500mb flash drive.
If you would like a little more info on the size of these go to How Much Data Is That? or on The 1 Trillion Dollar Hard Drive then click these links, these are my references for today.
This is my personal blog where I will talk about everything from video games to movies

Christianity?
Christianity is the belief in god, Jesus, and the holy spirit, now god says to love all as he (or she) loves all but in this world anyone can see that there is a lot of hate and it is everywhere but for those who do believe in Christ and god many of them still have hate even though they don't believe they have it or that it is it. Many religions hate each other for believing in the wrong god(s), but what about Christianity, there are many different types of it being roman Catholic, Baptist, Orthodox, and Protestant, these are the main big ones, now there are many different reasons why these groups don't agree or like each other mainly being that how they worship god but a real example of this hate is between me and a friend of mine, not really her but her parents. I am 17 and a roman Catholic Christian, her and her parents being Baptist Christian and she is 18, they are very strict with her but that's understandable to a point, she is aloud to have friends over after she lets her parents know, understandable, she cannot go over to friends houses really ever, this is that point that isn't understandable, she has asked her parents why and in short it's that we don't go to her church being that we are Catholic, and to add to it so that's not the main reason, that they don't know who will be here. Now how I see it is that she is 18 going on 19, me and my girlfriend are good friends with and both of us like to see her but we cant any anymore, they both graduated from high school just last and this is my senior year (2012! Woot! Woot!) So what am I to do, how should I go about saying hey lets hand out but where when and for how long like scheduling a meeting!
In my eyes all I can say is that freedom isn't a gift but a right and to have parents like that is unfair to anyone's childhood. -OrangeMango

U.Talk.Back
So I've been a member of this site called u.talk.back and it's an invite only redemption site, you do these week to week surveys that either earn you lots of points being 25-100 or if you don't qualify for the survey you earn a few points for just opening the survey like 1-5 points. Now once you earn enough points you can get a free item from their redemption page, some of the items being a GameStop gift card, Starbucks gift card, and other stuff. Now I have had an account with u.talk.back for a few years now but I never really qualified for any of the surveys until this last year when I redeemed for a free $25 gift card to GameStop, then about 2 months later I got a survey for 500 points and qualified so I redeemed for a $50 gift card, now I recently made 450 points and redeemed for a 2nd $50 gift card to GameStop, I have tried out quite a few points=money sites like PrizeRebel.com and RebelBucks.com and I have made money off of both these sites but it took too long to do so because I had to do so many surveys that some didn't even give me any points for but if your looking for something to do during the boring day I'd say try signing up for one of those two and make some money. Now if you have a card with GameStop's rewards program you are most likely going to be able to sign up with u.talk.back and if you can I would say do it! To me it's the easiest way to get gift cards to places like GameStop, Starbucks, and iTunes.

*This is quoted from their home page*
SPIN's August issue pays tribute to the 20th anniversary of Nirvana's Nevermind, and as part of our package we tapped some of our favorite contemporary artists to cover the influential album's 13 songs, in their original order. The download is called Newermind, and it's our gift to you.
We were happy that two of Kurt Cobain's personal faves -- the Meat Puppets and the Vaselines, both of whom Nirvana famously covered during their MTV Unplugged taping -- joined our effort.

Dead Island!!!
So the last post was a bit of a downer but this one is in much better hopes. The Dead Island game will be released September 9th and if you preorder it now then you will get:
* Exclusive Cover Art Packaging
* Exclusive In-Game Weapon:The Ripper(Special Combination Baseball Bat&Buzz Saw)
* Bloodbath Arena DLC which includes:
* 4 Arenas, deadly and hazardous spiked with traps
* Endless waves of Zombies
* Single or Coop Multiplayer
* Loot XP & items and bring them over into your campaign
* Additional Weapon : Sonic Pulse Grenade
Now looking at that how could you not want to get this game! How I see it to me it looks like a roam around game like a GTA game but with zombies like L4D. Now those who own a Xbox 360 and all ready own Left 4 Dead or L4D2 this game may not look to interesting because it's just another zombie game and the 360 already has a lot of them that are pretty good but this game will out do L4D in so many ways it's not funny. So if you would like a baseball buzz saw bat then preorder Dead Island at GameStop soon or you will miss out!
Twisted Metal 2010, 2011, 2012?
So if you haven't heard yet Twisted Metal has been pushed off yet again to a later date. The original teaser came out at E3 in 2010, the game then had an unset date, then the game play was released and another trailer at E3 2011 with a set date of October 4th, and now that so many First Person Shooter's or FPS's are coming out in late 2011 they don't want top be overshadowed in a way that TM doesn't get its fair share of bloody glory. So on one had it is understandable to be pushed but on the other the game has been pushed to early 2012 making it so the wait for the game isn't worth it as much as when their was a set date, hopefully it will be released sometime in January or maybe they will get smart and debut it in December in time for the big holiday spending spree. But no matter what happens to the game I will still be looking forward to the game, here is a link to the Twisted Metal Official Site and a link to the Eat, Sleep, Play Official Site

People Suck
It seems to me that everyone has their problems and everyone deals with them in their own way but that's not the problem, the problem is how they deal with them. If you understand the last sentence then you will understand the next, you know those people who can't handle their own problems so they drag you into them, well it seem that most people I know seem to do that or then there is the kind of people who try and manipulate you into helping them so that they get their way but then you wont hear from them for weeks even months or just until they want something from you again bu then theirs the other people that just don't know what to do and make you decide for them and then blame you for helping. It seems to me that no matter who you meet that they all have problems and they all seem to make the blame on you!

Problems
If you and your girlfriend were going out for awhile and a friend of hers and you got into a fight, not fists just words exchanged, and then a week later he comes to your house and he and her talk and it ends up making her cry so you and her don't talk to him anymore. Then months later she tells you she isn't that mad with him but just you are, do you think that she should back you up and stop talking with him and about him? Theirs this guy I know that I hate because of this situation but my girlfriend just told me she isn't as mad at him as I am so now I don't know what to do anymore, I'm confused to what I should do about this. . .

AT&T Costs Too Much!
So I have had AT&T internet for the past year or so, 1.5 meg download for $35, not to good but good enough, recently my 3 year old modem broke and now I don't have internet so I'm making the switch to Comcast, they are going to give my 15 meg download for about $40 so that's a big jump for not a much bigger price. I will be doing my regular posts on here soon again by tomorrow so I will see you then!
