Spotify and Moshi Monster

We already know I'm a geek so I'm not going to pretend, I found a website called Moshi Monsters where you adopt your own little monster pet. And YEAH I adopted one! I named her Merka and she's sort of devilsh looking. Essentially you play puzzles to earn Rox which are Moshi money. Then you can buy food, clothing, decor and even gardening seeds for your Moshi Monsters house. I played for a bit last night and it was entertaining enough. Though I can say it's definitely more targeted for a young teen or middle schooler. I think Braeden will like it in a couple of years, right now it's a little too involved for him as he is only five years old.

The challenge puzzles are simple and they gauge your quickness along with your logic which is great for kids. I for one take too long and so I only earn like 5 Rox at a time which is painfully little when some of the monster food costs 60 Rox. Even so it's fun and a time killer.

If you want to adopt a monster and you use thislink, my Merka will earn some Rox.

Your Spotify is a pretty cool site, though the premise has been done before many times.

The About page says: "Do you remember back in the days when you made mixtapes on your tape recorder? You can now experience the feeling of sharing and listen to other peoples playlists again by using www.yourspotify.com. Simply make your playlist in spotify, copy the URI and paste it in the field under “share your spotify playlist"."

And something not fun at all is the Valentine's Day virus.

PC World wants us to know it's out there. Spam trumpeting the power of love is nothing more than an old trick dressed up in new clothes, more evidence that the backers of the Waledec bot Trojan are the same bunch that hammered users in 2007 with Storm, security companies are warning.

So just make sure you continue to be careful with what you open and share.
