What is the weather like in your hometown?

Hi there, i read your blog from time to time and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam responses? If so how do you protect against it, any plugin or anything you can suggest? I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any support is very much appreciated.

I have seen many useful elements on your website about computers. However, I have got the view that notebook computers are still not quite powerful sufficiently to be a option if you often do projects that require a lot of power, for example video editing. But for website surfing, statement processing, and most other prevalent computer work they are all right, provided you may not mind the tiny screen size. Many thanks sharing your notions.
