Regular readers of this blog know that Amazon always has some great deals on computers and accessories, and I try to highlight as many of them here as I possibly can.
But did you know there’s an easy way to get huge discounts on laptops, tablets and other tech gear every single day (and other types of items as well)?
And you won’t even have to go searching for them.

Have you noticed that you’ve stopped seeing some of your friends’ posts in your Facebook Newsfeed?
Well, there’s a reason for that…
Facebook’s algorithm is programmed to determine which of your friends’ posts (in the algorithm’s opinion of course) are worthy of landing in your Newsfeed.
It makes that determination based upon which friends you interact with the most by liking, sharing and commenting on their posts and photos.

Question from Tammy: I’ve used nothing but Windows laptops all my life but I decided to try a MacBook Air this time around.
I think I’m going to like the laptop ok but I hate the Apple Magic Mouse that I bought to go with it. I just can’t seem to get used to it. I guess I’m weird but it just doesn’t feel right in my hand.
My question is can I use a regular 2-button mouse like the ones you use with a Windows computer with it?

Question from Gwen: I installed a kid’s game on my iPhone that teaches the child how to do basic math in order to solve a series of mysteries.
The recommended age range for the game is 4 to 6.
My daughter turned 4 a couple of months ago so I believe she should be able to successfully play the game.
The thing is I don’t want her to be able to do anything with the phone except use this one app. Is it possible to set it up this way?
